New 747

[Greg Goodavish 2]

Will the 747 be updated to the 737NGX and 777 standards soon? I have been patiently waiting, and would like to know if work on this will start in the near future. Thx

Will be: yes.

Soon: no.

 

My conjecture is, T7 SP1, T7 SDK, T7 model expansion, and NGX SP2 come first.

Than you for the reply.  Since it looks like it will be awhile, I am thinking of getting the 747X, but am a bit leery after reading all these posts about the plan bobbing up and down.  Do most people have this issue?  If so, I don't want to spend the money on it, and will just wait for V2.  Please let me know.

V2 will come, but nobody knows when really. I'd guesstimate that it's still a ways out. But it's coming.

In realistic weather, including turbulence, you'll need the "usual" tweaks:

 

- Turn 'turbulence effects on aircraft' off in FSX options

- Don't use 'enhanced turbulence effects' in Active Sky Next

- You also may have to fiddle with that so-called 'turbulence scalar'

 

Otherwise it's a great experience: a majestic way of flying (no pun intended!)

Unless Boeing decides to pull out of pmdg  :rolleyes:  Remember the terrorism hysteria? :wacko: :Monkey: :north-corea-flag:

Even if Boeing decided to stop working together with PMDG, it would be HIGHLY unlikely they'd just cease development. While they're probably a very useful resource, I doubt Boeing itself is the only reference PMDG uses. Development may take longer, a lot longer even, but I doubt it would cause much troubles.

Especially since Rob hinted a few times already that development on the 747v2 is well underway, and progressing nicely.

Airbus simulations have been developed without any/much assistance by Airbus Ind./EADS.

 

The knowledge is widespread in the aviation industry. The same goes for Boeings.

The term "soon" is abused in this sector... I am still waiting for a scenery that Aerosoft, in February 2013, said would be out "soon"...

 Maybe Rome, Italy??

I'm happy for all those FS9-ers!   :lol:

[Cooper382 21]

I'm not using FS9, but I know that Aerosoft 's FSX Version of that Airport is still missing.. :-(

If it's Rome you're waiting for, don't expect a killer airport.  I have it for FS9 and it's not exactly a looker.  It has a "freeware feel" to it.  Quality is quite low compared to other offerings from Aerosoft (Innsbruck, Ibiza, etc).
