one step closer to freeing up over 200GB...

Nice. Leonardo Software House were showing landing and takeoff video of the MSFS Maddog late last year. Based on that video, I was guessing the Maddog was pretty far in its development and estimated a release for it in 2022.

Looks like it will be a race between Fenix, PMDG, and Leonardo on who gets the first high fidelity airliner out in 2022.

2022 is looking like a big year for MSFS high fidelity airliners.

I wonder if the MD80 will actually be the first release out of all the upcoming products?

Or will the Hondajet or JF BAE 146 maybe?

Is the BAE 146 even in beta testing yet? Doubt the BAE 146 will be released first if it’s not even in beta testing.

It’s currently in Alpha but surprisingly polished given that status.

Oh nice.  Didn’t know it was in Alpha. Maybe it is closer to release then.

Honestly, for me it could easily be in beta, it appears that far along. They have items they want to add though which is why I assume they are classing it as alpha at this time. They will definitely deliver a special aircraft with the 146.

Hi, is the TDFi MD 11 in Alpha or Beta testing too? I just read they posted the price of their MD 11 for MSFS.  Would be awesome if the TDFi MD 11 is also in Alpha or Beta testing phase.

Everybody around this hobby seems to get far more excited for the PMDG 737.  However this plane is far more exciting to me.  They have always been such a refreshing developer.  No drama.  Under promise over deliver.  Love the MD-80

This has not been expressed clearly in their latest post, but one would reasonably assume that when you are able to articulate a price, it is because your product is near completion and you have all the cost elements under control.

Oh yes , my all time favorit.  Really love the Alpha Honeycomb Yoke with this one. 1000 times better than the Saitek Yoke.
