TFDi Design 717

[pilot87 12]

Hi Bryan,

I have recently started following the TFDi Design 717 expected to be released late this year (2016). From what I've seen to date it is quite a high end add on that will match the quality of other designers such as PMDG and Aerosoft. The aircraft is still common across the US, Europe and Australia. The designers have advised that an SDK will be produced but that FS2Crew have expressed no interest in working on the plane. 

 

I was wondering if this is due to workload with other planned addons or if its due to a perceived lack of purchaser interest in the model? If it's the latter would that likely change if take up of the product is strong?

 

I completely understand that construction of any FS2Crew addon is a mammoth undertaking (experts, voices, programming, etc.) so completely understand the answer either way, but was just curious.

Hi Haydn,

 

I'm sure it'll be a great plane, but it's really a question of workload.

 

I'd love to do them all, but there are only so many hours in day :-)

Thanks for the quick response Bryan. I figured it had to be something like that.

 

Cheers!

That's a shame. it would have been good to fly something different.

​Looking forward to your next product.

Hi Bryan,

 

I'm one of these who consider incomplete a flight experience without your products.The TDFi would be certainly on the top of my wishlist for FS2crew. I have all your of products and my personal wishlist would be FSLA320, PMDG747 and QW787, thought the latter two are not yet released. In that respect TDFi 717 would be second considering that the A320 is more common in the real word. If you have tried this product you can instantly see that it has the high quality of all others and there is only a handfull of such quality in the FSX/P3D word. If you find time it would be certainly worth it. The only drawback of this aircraft is that is not popular in real life by airliners but this was just because of a bad timing. The aircraft itself is beautiful and its glass cockpit avionics makes it nothing but modern. It has a lot of potential, and for me I'm gonna use it in all CRJ fligths in europe. Besides, its always exciting to learn new planes. I think if you find the time sometime it would be worth investing into this one and you will find many supporters.

We reached out toFS2Crew, but they have expressed no interest in working on a version for our aircraft.

 

 This was mention in the TFDi forum from one of the developers...Is this true?
