The price for the DC-6 for MSFS is a very good deal at $55, compared to the price of the DC-6 for P3D and X-Plane.  I like how the prices have been pushed down by MSFS (a lot of airport sceneries are also quite cheap on MSFS). 

And of course, the reviews for the DC-6 for MSFS have been stellar.  Now we wait for the 737 from PMDG for MSFS.  I'm sure the PMDG 737 will also be another hugely successful product when it's released for MSFS!

I paid $100 up frount with the NGXu so at best it will be $100  unless they give refunds 🙄

Yeah, PMDG said it would cost $140 USD or something like that, lol.  Well, let's hope they will surprise us with the final price.  I guess we will see.

Does anyone know what the Level D 767 sold for back in the day. I bought that aircraft when it came out, and it was leaps and bounds above any other add on back then. Flew it for years.

You know, I completely forgot about that. I'm in the same situation.

Memory is a bit vague on that and the receipts are long gone, but I reckon it was about £40 (GBP).

Getting back into MSFS after a few months off I was quite pleased to see the DC6 and on sale for what is a very nice price, too. Think it will be added to my hangar very soon. What do we reckon the chances are of it turning up in the Marketplace, so the transaction and support/upgrades are merged into the core programme.

DC6 has already had several patches. Doubt if that would have happened with the Market Place selling it.

It will take a lot of convincing to get me to pay any price approaching $100 for 1 aircraft.

 PMDG would have struggled to move the DC6 at $85 +.  They will be able to get it for the PMDG 737.  Supply and demand at its best.

$40 for the FS9 version, $15 for the FS9-to-FSX upgrade, $55 for the FSX-only version. That is the price in 2006, that is also the price today. I think the PMDG 747 for FS9 was $55 back then...

Many thought that was expensive back then for an aircraft.

You think those newbies are going to fork over 100+$ for a 737 you will be rudely awakened. The DEMAND will be not so much greater than in P3D which will cost the same in MSFS. Most will still fly the A320nx imo.

I fully agree with you, For most of us avsim and flightsim  aficionados, $100 might be bearable, as we just want to have that plane. But we are the minority. I have no idea, how many copies PMDG was able to sell for the P3D version, but looking at it from a pure marketing point of view and taking into consideration the vast number of MSFS users compared to P3D, my guess is that, if they would price it at around $60, they would sell a vast number of copies more. Lower profit per copy, but an overall much healthier bottom line. Just my 2 cents.
