Yeah Patrick I don't know if I can handle anything smaller than a 737 or A320   I can't wait for the 744v2 and the A330.  I'm hoping to fly at least one of them by the end of this year

Great shots Chris!

I'm with ya' Chris...but I fear we're not flying a 744 this year based on how slowly they're trickling any news on it.  A few screenshots in a year's time, not a hint its even in Alpha, and based on how slow development's been on previous products, I'll bet we'll be lucky to see it even by the end of next year. :Raised Eyebrow:

I'd love to be wrong, but since this is Robert's favorite plane I'd figure they'd be a lot further along by now.  I feel if they were further along we'd be seeing a lot more updates from....beta testers?

To me it doesn't make business sense to hold off on previews if they are within 2-4 months of release like some think they are.

I'm just going to forget about the 744 until there is really something to be excited about.

 

I'd bet money you'll be flying an A330F in Tampa Cargo livery before you'll even see release previews of the 744. :Big Grin:

Thanks Steve-O!  You could be right on the A330F.  As far as the PMDG 744v2 goes, I'm predicting 2Q2016 (that's RSR speak )  If it takes 6 more months or 2 more years that's ok with me.  I'm having a blast with my current fleet and will welcome the Queen with open arms when the day comes.  I just downloaded Corina's Martinair 777F livery from the library here as this freight business is really booming :He He:
