That is pretty good news for the 757 fans - Can't wait to see how it progresses and hopefully it will turn out to be a fairly decent addon for MSFS.

LOL.  When it rains in pours (airliners).

So many people wanted a 757 for MSFS. Well, they just got their wish.

Glad to see someone else if working a 757. As long as it’s not a CaptainSim product I look forward to see what they bring to the community.

Yup, when it rains, it pours.  My guess is, once the first study level airliner is proven on MSFS, the rest will just follow in droves. With the PMDG 737, Fenix A320, and Maddog all entering beta testing, all the 3rd party airliner devs know there aren't any impediments anymore with the MSFS SDK to develop study level airliners (actually, if 3rd party devs used Fenix's architecture where they are not targeting the XBox but are releasing on PC only, study level airliners minus the weather radar were possible a long time ago in MSFS).

I wouldn't be surprised if there are yet further announcements by other companies over the coming months of more airliners, now that the MSFS SDK issues are out of the way.  The 3rd party devs know where the $$$, and the $$$ is in MSFS.  They will follow the $$$.

I wish Level D would come out with a 767 for MSFS. They were years ahead, way back in 2008

Thats great news love the 757

Just Flight more likely to be a pocket (and wife) friendly price, too. Good news.

Hoping it doesn't come with a default FMC.

Awesome! One of my favorite birds getting a Just Flight and PMDG makeover. This is the greatest period for flight simming in my life.

[Keirtt 574]

Fingers crossed that it'll be more than just pretty. I'm not knocking JustFlight when I say this, but I want to see some of these airliners released with some real depth. I'm hopefully optimistic they'll do a great job with this!

[Keirtt 574]

Well, that didn't take long. This screams "Xbox market" when the dev starts making comments like this. 

[FrankSalo 272]

If I recall they did have a freemium version for FSX way back when. I'll be following it's development for sure.
