November 13, 201411 yr Hi everyone.. I was just wondering when PMDG will bring out or start on the 787-Dreamliner? If it is already in plan or production, could somebody Link me to some news? Kind Regards Mehdi
November 13, 201411 yr I was just wondering when PMDG will bring out or start on the 787-Dreamliner? Where did you hear that PMDG was planning on developing the 787? Kenny Lee"Keep climbing"
November 13, 201411 yr There's a reason why you haven't heard about it... They haven't made ANY statement regarding the 787. In any case, Quality Wings seems to be on track for a VERY decent release. Name available upon request
November 13, 201411 yr Commercial Member There have been multiple discussions amongst the membership here, though mostly only in the form of "will they," or "they should" types of posts. Nothing has come from an official perspective, though. Kyle Rodgers
November 13, 201411 yr Well, if they do I demand that they accurately model the battery failures too Regards Werner Gillespie CYB2400Proud member of Cyber Air Virtual AirlinesAVSIM Staff Member

Kind Regards Mehdi I hope you realize that another developer is already making the 787 right? https://www.facebook.com/QualityWings
November 14, 201411 yr Author Thanks guys for the replies.. I am a big fan of PMDG, and would like to hope they consider this being a part of their collection..
November 14, 201411 yr Quality Wings' is going to be fantastic! Most likely much better than their previous work... It should be relatively close to PMDG quality. So, I don't ever see PMDG making a 787 nor do I want them to make one. The QW will be sufficient for me... Nick Mathews CFI
November 14, 201411 yr It should be relatively close to PMDG quality. It will be "Quality" but not even close to PMDG Quality. They don't target the same customer base as PMDG.

November 14, 201411 yr Commercial Member It will be "Quality" but not even close to PMDG Quality. They don't target the same customer base as PMDG. Yeah, I was about the say similar. Plus, PMDG has been doing their own thing (for the most part) for quite some time now. They didn't avoid releasing a 737 because someone else had done it, and they aren't avoiding a 744 because someone else is doing one, too. I imagine even if there are a few 787s out there, if they're not to what the dev team thinks is up to how they'd do it, they might do one too, eventually. Kyle Rodgers
November 14, 201411 yr It will be "Quality" but not even close to PMDG Quality. They don't target the same customer base as PMDG. Agreed. The iFly 737NG was successful but for a different user base looking for a different level of detail and a different price point. I think that PMDG should pay no attention to what others are doing because it's never the same. Jim Shield Cybersecurity Specialist
November 14, 201411 yr Author I absolutely agree..)) They shouldn't pay attention to the others.. After all, they are the most precise in detail and simulation Physics that are involved in engineering these aircraft..
November 14, 201411 yr Mehdi, I feel that you have had comprehensive replies to your question, except that PMDG has to make commercial decisions about its likely return on investment. They certainly won't be disclosing their calculations. HTH.
