Even better performance than the 777 and 744.

I haven‘t tried it in VR though. 

EFB sounded like it would be cool in VR, as long as you can interact with it. 

744 is a good VR plane, so sounds like the -8 may be even better.

I will have to try it. A2A's rain system has killed my performance in the Bonanza in native VR. Even with a 1080Ti. But I will definitely try it out. But I suppose that the EFB might be hard to read in VR, very small letters and digits. Will see...

How are the frame rates? Any decrease from the -400? Any microstutters from the extra systems that have been added?

i’ve flown the -400min VR a fair bit on the past, and am wondering if there’s any downside to the the -8’s added complexity.

I actually found the frames to be the same and if not, maybe a little better. At first I thought 70 bucks was overpriced, but after flying it, I actually understand it. Getting rainmaker and buggy splatted on the windshied, efb, and the sound of the GENX engines are amazing. Totally worth it. You will have much joy with this aircraft and if you get it, have fun!

For the very first time this summer/fall it rains heavily in the Netherlands - what a timing!-, and above all, I really like it. Beautiful raindrops on my cockpit windows

Stefan, no need to post multiple times on the same problem.  You are describing the very old add-on to the earlier version of the PMDG 747.  This will in no way work with the current PMDG 747 QOTSII.  After purchase you will find download links for the new product in your account by selecting purchase history.

Interesting. There's one buried in our store somewhere, apparently, but I've yet to find how people are getting to it.

Kyle, you'll find it under "My Account".
