December 22, 20169 yr Commercial Member Actually now that I think about it I have waited so long for some of these to come out of the hangar that I have lost interest.

December 22, 20169 yr YAY !!! My vote was for the TFDi 717 . We are in 3rd place in the POLL - but FIRST to RELEASE !!! :p0317: Quote
December 22, 20169 yr Voted for the Connie and that's a day one purchase for me, but I've been watching the 717 closely and I'm really impressed with what I'm seeing. May be on board with that one fast if initial reports are good. Alan Ampolsk"Ah, Paula, they are firing at me!"-- Saint-Exupery
December 22, 20169 yr Yep - 6:00 pm Eastern Time December 22. https://blog.tfdidesign.com/2016/12/21/release/ Looks exciting but I couldn't get from the web site which sim it is for. Any one know? Vic green
December 22, 20169 yr The 717 is for FSX, FSX:SE, and P3D. For $59.99 you get the 717 for ALL platforms.
December 22, 20169 yr A heads-up that A2A has posted the Connie manuals online and opened the Connie subforums, which means release is imminent. Between that and the 717, wallet is now standing by for a tough couple of days. Alan Ampolsk"Ah, Paula, they are firing at me!"-- Saint-Exupery

December 23, 20169 yr Just watched some QW 787 videos again and what should I say? I WANT this plane, right now! I love the Dreamliner and the A350... The ANA dreamliner flies over my house every single evening. I can see it from my balcony shortly after takeoff in Munich, you can see the distict light signature from tens of miles away... I want that thing in my P3D!
December 24, 20169 yr A320 for P3D. B-787 would be cool too. Best regards, Wanthuyr Filho Instagram: AeroTacto
December 24, 20169 yr Apparently it's something around the $40 mark upgrading from FSX. So in my case and because i selected to pay in dollars with no tax, i bought the FSX version for $89 (i got one of the first ones) which was around 80 euro. If i have to pay 40 more (~35 euro), it's 115 total and i can also use both versions if i want to. In the 777 case, i had to pay 89.99 plus 134.99 (around 220 euro). It's completely unfair paying more than twice for over 90% of the same code. Needless to say i never bought the 777 for P3D. In this case both licenses can also be used obviously. In the Aerosoft case, you pay for lower level simulators ONCE and you can use them anywhere. This is why i will skip the 747 if anything over $99 for P3D. Okay, three engine types, three (three?) different models, but still $100 is a lot of money and i think a fair amount for this kind of addon. Hence, I re-installed FSX:SE, and am about to hit the "buy" button for the FSLabs ... :-) Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

December 27, 20169 yr PMDG 747v3 TFDI 717 was pretty disappointing with all the bugs, but it does seem that TFDI is committed to fixing the bugs in pretty short order... I just hope they make true on that, because the add-on has a lot of potential. What I really don't like about TFDI is the false advertising they did... at no point was it ever told to the public that it would not be a complete release, no TOC/TOD, and the MCDU is only 75% complete is what they NOW say over in their forums. IMHO not cool, if they had said that it wasn't complete and offered this at a discount I would feel totally different.
