someone got very confused.

Hi,

No, this is the usual PMDG's way. Before an addon gets released, it appears with the price of the real aircraft.

It has been like that for all new addons.

Be informed that PMDG requires the posts to be signed with full names on their forum.

Funny (or not) how these pop up with EVERY release. hehe

Maybe it’ll speed up development if someone pays it, want to start a money pool?

Ibtl.

I for one appreciate that PMDG does this as it regularly generates new threads on avsim about it.

That and it's not wing flex or split scimitar-related discussions.

AND, that's List Price. I guarantee Boeing would let one go for $280M!

Ok, i'll buy directly from Boeing then. Do they accept paypal?

A direct wire of the funds is preferred, Boeing wouldn’t want you charging back that amount of cash now would they?

They have some undelivered -8s sitting around, so you could probably get it for a lot less than $280 million if you’re a shrewd negotiator.

Just do not mention subsidy or you may get hit with a big sales tax bill

Gents,

We have done this for... gosh... twenty years or so now.  It is a little inside joke between us and our long-time customers.

You would be amazed how many people reach out to the support team to let us know that the price is too high. 

We often joke that "we only need to sell just one" but this did indeed happen a while back.  (not on the 747-8...)  Fellow working from his mobile thought he saw a product go live and hit the purchase button.  He had sufficient funds...

It took some deft work on our part to get the transaction unwound without any service fees from the financial institution- but fortunately everyone involved had a sense of humor about it and was none-the-worse for the wear afterward.

So if anyone ever tries to tell you that PMDG has never given a refund- we have.  Once.  And oh what a refund it was.

Hi Guys,

Cheers 

[Budbud 227]

No. PMDG never gives release date.

For info, they require that all posts be signed with full names on their forums.

Another little gem of a question that gets asked on a frequent basis. Bless him
