April 1, 201412 yr Here are my thoughts: there is no APFL the altitude is suitable for precipitation the weather radar show in the pfd (wxr) the drawing of the WXR looks a bit odd to me (I've seen WXR in action live) when captain Randazzo wrote it, I bet he noticed the date! he could have written guys this is for real! but he did not. so all in all I think its April foll's joke. I wish and hope it isn't but... Hilarious. Dude, all in all I think you might be right. :rolleyes: Adam Turley
April 1, 201412 yr I think they forgot to mention the free interface cable for use with the new PMDG full motion hydraulic platform to be released with SP1. More popcorn anyone? Chris Lundberg
April 1, 201412 yr It must be true because Rob wouldn't lie... But it's April fools day... so it must be false... But it could be possible because of ASN... Norman, coordinate... David Webster AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D | G.Skill 32GB DDR4 3600Mhz | EVGA RTX 3080 Ti @ 3440X1440 | Crucial 2TB M.2 | Win11
April 1, 201412 yr I'm not at all bothered as I couldn't care less about weather radar. Probably wouldn't use it anyway. :lol: Iain Smith
April 1, 201412 yr Got it - however this 'joke' is not consistent with the stance normally taken towards the innocent 'newbies' who come to the forum asking about the WX radar feature. Carl Beeby
April 1, 201412 yr ASN still has to make some advances. I haven't seen the "tilt" function... But its not recomended to fly with ASN without a WX radar.
April 2, 201412 yr If it is, they just lost my purchase of the 300ER given the lack of updates or a SP1 patch. Perhaps they are just a bit too clever for their own good sometimes. That's coming from an owner of FS9 B73, B74, FSX J41, B73 and B77L!! I'll second this...if nothing more than an April fools joke, it's slapping their customers in the face. I could find it funny if they've communicated better about SP1 which has been "just around the corner" for quite a number of weeks now, but we never get the updates we're told will come.

I could find it funny if they've communicated better about SP1 which has been "just around the corner" for quite a number of weeks now, but we never get the updates we're told will come. Still waiting for the SP2 update to the NGX. And communication here is generally terse remarks from Tabs that are usually confrontational and shed little light on much of anything but his attitude.
April 2, 201412 yr See the following update.. it wasn't a joke (Thankfully)... http://forum.avsim.net/topic/438427-01apr14-pmdg-777-200lrf-feature-preview-wx-radar/ Cheers,John TavendaleTextures by Tavers - https://www.facebook.com/texturesbytavers
April 2, 201412 yr Why do not you want to admit that this is the truth ? It's a great surprise!!! You should be Happy! I know I'm right See the following update.. it wasn't a joke (Thankfully)... http://forum.avsim.net/topic/438427-01apr14-pmdg-777-200lrf-feature-preview-wx-radar/ I was right!This was true!!!!
April 2, 201412 yr I've been well and truly had. Well played RSR, well played sir. Not many manage to totally stitch me up like a kipper but it's been done. Suppose I'll have to buy the 777 now...... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 2, 201412 yr APFL=April Fool? 0401=April Fool? Wasted my precious time mulling this so I guess it worked. Does not detract in any way from the near perfect addon the 777 already is. Seriously though I would like a real update for the NGX (time compression) Jay
