FSLabs wants to develop new Concorde for v4

[Nighthwk 566]

Anyone know how to get ahold of ADX so they can put an article up?

Just sent my email, however, I question the value of this approach.  You might gets lots of commitments on email but without a price and delivery date how could a developer possibly know if they will translate into orders at time of release?  And second, there may be lots of people who would buy Concorde that don't frequent this site or the FSL Facebook page that miss the entire thing.

Hi Mark,

Hope you're well. 

A ball-park price point was listed on the press release. We'd be planning for a 2018 release if we receive enough interest.

Unfortunately Concorde is a bit obscure for some people's tastes, and I daresay a lot of younger flight simmers won't feel the nostalgia for it that some of us do, although since it is unlikely that there'll ever be another supersonic airliner, at least not for the foreseeable future, it's something we can at least enjoy virtually if FSL make this one, so I hope they do.

Personally I've been in love with that aeroplane ever since it was being built. My dad, who was an aeronautical engineer, gave me a big toy of the thing (in BOAC livery) when I was about four and visiting Faireys where he worked. I remember watching the first commercial operation of the thing on split screen on TV, where a French and a British Concorde both took off at the same time. Anyone else remember watching that? It was a really big deal in the UK, a bit like the televised Moon landing.

And you should have seen me when I got the chance to sit in the left seat of G-BOAC, I was like a big kid lol.

What will count as enough interest? About how many emails?

I don't as much anymore... Since D'Andre left the site, it has sadly lost it's quality, IMO.

[bursco 14]

I found their site and completed the news form. They should publish soon. I’ve never heard of them until now.
