Fur Seat covers

Recommended Posts

Is there any options for fur seat covers?

 

on those long 7 hour flights, my bottom starts to hurt since the seat cover is so firm.

 

will it be included in an update?

I have to admit that I also really miss those beige fur seat covers, as I think that they (would) add a lot to the appearance and atmosphere of the 747 cockpit with its typical warm, brownish colors.

 

And I really can't understand why PMDG didn't include them, as the large majority of 747-400s seems to be equipped with those seats, judging from all the cockpit photos of various airlines. Yes, I know, that's not a proof, but the fact that I could hardly find any photos of the grey seats on a 747-400 flight deck but hundreds with the beige fur seats somehow speaks for itself...

 

So much for "realistic airline options". :wink:

 

Already asked about it during the beta phase, but unfortunately no response.

 

Hi Kyle,

 

thanks a lot for the video showing the plethora of options! :smile:

 

However, there's one option which I miss... :ph34r:

 

It's the option of changing the type of seats. - Honestly, from all the real-world 747 flight deck photos and videos I've seen so far, I've almost never seen the seats with those grey cushions which are modeled here. In my personal impression, the large majority of 747s is equipped with the rather beige, fur type of seats, of which I think are typical for the 747 and adding a great deal to the overall impression of the brown-beige colors and atmosphere on the 747 flight deck: http://www.jetphotos.net/photo/8411747

 

Here's a nice side-by-side comparison of both within one flight deck: http://www.jetphotos.net/photo/8382690

 

However, I have the feeling that 99% of 747s are equipped with those: http://www.jetphotos.net/photo/8276769

 

Are there any plans to add those seats as an option as well? :rolleyes:

 

Best regards

Olli

And while procuring the skins please bring back some other lovely stuff from the 70s.

I was stationed in Greece in the 80s and brought home several flokati rugs, nice thick ones. My living room looked like the movie set for The Spy That Shagged Me hahaha

I see on Google they are still widely sold.

Just an FYI, the sheep skin seat covers you are referring to are wool, not fur.  :P
