Interesting they have been teasing the real airplane. I wondered if it was to start getting people excited for the in sim one. I think we are in for a long haul though... patience. 

Nice!  It will be great to see this when it's released!

Probably right on the mark. There is a lot of hyperbole in MSFS at the moment... not nearly enough substance. 
 

For a commercial developer interested in a future, these are precarious times. The promised level of eventual simulation is very high. The current level of development tools for the sim isn’t. The developer has to keep the public’s interest... what to do?
 

Show off the actual aircraft with the underlying premise that the eventual simulation will be very close to the actual thing. Then join the rest of the professionals waiting anxiously, whilst watching P3D sales dwindling and an SDK in its infancy. Now, add the burden of making payroll for the next 12-18 months while Asobo and MS constantly change the sim and make excruciatingly slow progress in the infrastructure, whilst concentrating resources on the eye catching non-substantive parts.

 

Just for good measure, add some BRILLIANT freeware developers and teams, who are unfettered by the peccadilloes of running a profitable company. These are people unrestrained by prior investment and not pining for promised repurposing of prior resources. They are willing to just use the tools at hand and move forward- and can, because of said freedom. They are the ones leading the way currently, adding to the commercial developer’s burden of product quality.

 

So, the commercial developer has to maintain payroll and stay afloat, produce a superlative offering and do it for a lower price point than ever before... and should they succeed, their marketplace is immense and profit potential heretofore unimagined. If only there was a real SDK.

 

I don’t envy the professional developers their task... do you?

PS- looking forward to seeing how they implemented taxi steering on this one, particularly 😉

Lol first we have to get to a place where I don't crash to desktop every second flight, or stutter along etc... all while having a very decent PC!

Really wish they would've started on their C182 and C172 instead.
