Still flies the same. All the buttons still in same place still does the same thing. They'll be quality of life updates like SimBrief integration and CPDLC? 

So if a plane has been done before in a simulator, it can never be made again?

Keep in mind that the user base for MSFS is a lot larger than P3D or FSX -- there are going to be more than a few buyers who haven't used earlier versions.

Exactly. I always flew combat sims like DCS, IL-2, etc. and had no real interest in the likes of X-plane, P3D, etc. Then I saw the visuals and what MSFS was offering and decided to take a jump into a new world. There'll likely be lots more like me.

I would say that first time purchasers of the PMDG 737, the BAe 146 or the Maddog MD80 will all significantly exceed the number of simmers who owned these aircraft in the other platforms.

I owned and flew the 737s in P3D, and after a few years of flying it , it got boring to me, so I switched to prop aircraft . I don't think I will purchase the 737 again. If I had never owned one, I probably would buy the 737.

Is the same for FBW, they tell you not to use in-game fuel and weight planner as they include theirs same goes for PMDG

No different to FSX or P3D, only use the weight and fuel loading in the FMS.

Yep exactly. Sometimes is buffing to see some drama here and the same behavior has existed since before.

Great news, can't wait to get my hands on the 737-800

Wow! PMDG just can't do anything right!! What's the matter in here?

and no 8K textures? how dare they! if Airbus freeware can do it, hopefully soon also on a PMDG near you. that will be the icing on the fuselage/wing/cake.

Hey, at least he taught us how to say "Drzeweicki."

And I still can't say it. 😊

I have to say their rendition of Renton, and Flytampa's Las Vegas are easily the two best Airport addons to grace this sim.

There was a live streaming video of Chewwy94. New flight KSAN - KTUS

and some even spell it correctly Drzewiecki 😊. next time tell the parents to come up with a different last name. or think of a company name that even someone outside Poland can spell and pronounce. How about something like Tesla, Audi, Cessna, Apple ...

My comment still rings true after watching the streams. It's actually even less because there's no EFB, winds etc oh and it cartwheels on landing.
