Thinking of buying the 747X

The 777 as of what will know should be released this or next month. I bet they've done a lot more on the 747 than we think. 777 is a perfect example of what they can do in a fairly short amount of time.

 

I can imagine how much you're looking forward to the 777 - just like me, but you're being a bit too opitimistic! Remember when PMDG released the first video preview of the 737NGX? It took over 6 months before the plane eventually got released. And we haven't even reached that stage yet!

It was eight months it released after the manuals- doesn't mean they're going to be the same timelines; thought this was a different development :P Not even worth talking about- your guess is as good as mine ^_^

Mate with the amount of rediculous "when's it coming out" threads going on, I've got it timed to perfection.

Wow, and all this because I was thinking of buying the old 747......

 

Haha - tell you what mate, I came close to buying it last night. I can't remember it too much since I only had it boxed for FS9.

Sorry mate!

 

I am definitely getting the new 747 from pmdg!

 

Still like flying the current model. A timeless classic IMO.

Is there any decent freeware 744's out there to keep me entertained?

 

If you want to be "entertained", then the answer is yes. But, if you want to be AMAZED, then I would just wait for the PMDG version.

I tried the iFly freeware 747. It was not very entertaining, neither was the POSKY 747.

I like my CLS 747 but it feels like flying a relic

Look in the 16TH OCTOBER thread: "...and although we're not quite where we wanted to be...". I hope it coming out soon but it's just so unlikely according to this sentence. I remember they anticipated the NGX in end of 2011 and it took another 6 months. And although this isn't as a hard development as the NGX was, (according to them) there are still a big amount of new stuff that is very time consuming. We've yet to see the first video previews and you're expecting the 777 for next month? Just not gonna happen, although I'd like to be proven wrong! :Big Grin:

"..but I mentioned back in August that we were experiencing a significant slowdown in progress rates that was pushing us further along in the calendar... We aren't seeing that drag any longer- and in fact I think we are seeing more progress than we anticipated over the past 30 days or so."

 

Mate you're entitled to your own opinions and guesses- so am I! Mine is maybe because it's a case of what you know and what I know.. (-:

 

Can we end these guessing games now please?
