December 23, 20169 yr For $59 I'll support them. Besides with them doing a MD plane, maybe a MD11 remake isn't too far fetched. (I can dream can't I? ) "I am the Master of the Fist!" -Akuma
December 23, 20169 yr I do have to chuckle with the above comment about them: a) telling the world an exact launch time b ) being absolutely unprepared for said launch at their said time c) also advertising/selling their own web hosting.... lol Can't say it gives me much confidence in the company, but I am still excited about their new bird! They're just having a bad day. I wouldn't let it form an opinion. Even the US government didn't anticipate the steps needed to keep "Healthcare.gov" from puking when it was first opened. They probably only plan of about 60 buyers a night, not 60 per minute. "No sense in spending extra money to make the website beefier than what is needed." Then it fries the first minute of operation Robert Yunque PilotEdge Ratings = CAT-11 (2016-09-13) I-11 (2016-10-23) V-3 (2016-08-01)

Then it fries the first minute of operation Lol, don't even bring the government's ability to do anything efficiently to the table :wink: Nah, not ragging on them so much as I feel exactly like Paul, particularly because they also want to sell web hosting ha (ie, they should know this): "Specially ironic as they are offering to sell Web Hosting. Coming from an IT background I'm afraid I can't be too sympathetic when an increased demand is forecast and they don't cater for it. Especially in today's age of scalable on-demand cloud based infrastructure such as from Amazon and Rackspace and many others." http://www.avsim.com/topic/500181-tfdi-717-releasing-on-dec-22nd-at-600pm-eastern-2300z/?p=3533585 But, on the topic of price, if this thing is as good as it looks it'll be a ton of fun at $59!
