01APR14 - Quick PMDG 777 SP1 Update

Recommended Posts

Alternate Uplink, APFL is not a airport within that area. CYQQ, KSEA etc. APFL (April Fools) and 04.1 Fuel is very clever!

 

On a side note, if one of these are true, it would be fantastic!

 

You guys got me for a minute before I looked closely at the screenshot.  :ph34r:

 

Cheers,

While a Weather Radar from ActiveSky Next might be plausable,

Might be, but PMDG will never require a customer to purchase a third party addon for a feature in their products.

 

So with that, it is a April Fools yarn. Will it backfire ? Not sure, but sit back and see.

They worked at least about 45 minutes on the shop job on the screenshot, so I assume someone stayed late an extra 45 to work on SP1 and 300  :P

With a 500% degree of certainty - April fools' joke.

 

Take into account the missing statements on the progress of the FBW fix and it's a 600% degree.

 

Nice try, though, Robert ...   B)

Captain,

 

You fooled me for a good minute or two. Well played. lol! :lol:


Take-offs are optional, landings are mandatory.
The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
To make a small fortune in aviation you must start with a large fortune.

There's nothing less important than the runway behind you and the altitude above you.
It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground.
