Mostly on the MCDU video on youtube, yes, also a couple in the MSFS forums. To be honest you can literally recognize the MSFS default ND screen in the video yourself, it's the same from the default Boeings I think.

Well, I guess that's me out then...

Would of liked to see the aircraft actually up in the air and showing us VNAV etc. I did get my hopes up for this but not so hyped now.

That's not what the video shows. The flightplan entries could honestly be any sort of flight plan module. 

They also load in performance data into a display that looks wrong, and it's not outputting any path or prediction whatsoever. Ergo, there's no VNAV. 

Along with the missing vertical profile, the default nav display, etc., it looks like you're getting stock re-skinned gauges and a nice 3d model, but it will probably struggle going from point A to point B.

I fly the real thing for a living,I've got over 1000 hours and am about to upgrade to Captian on it (waiting so I can hold a good line). Looks pretty close to the real thing to me.. Its running Epic Load 27 (you can tell by the PFD) so the perf page on the MCDU is um different.... IMO not in a good way compared to previous loads but thats besides the point. As for vertical profile it's selection you make during a preflight flow and it's not on by default and some folks don't use it. If they don't include Vnav the word not allowed thing is pointless though it's a pretty big feature of the plane.

Interesting, you're the first real life pilot saying positive things about it, thanks for sharing!

Well that's good, judging by the end of the closing comments in the video, contact with the developer has been made and they have corrected some of those issues discussed in the video already.  Looks like it is still a work in progress, but making progress that even RW Embraer pilots appreciate.

Just saw this posted on twitch.  There's a live stream tomorrow with FSS, so hopefully many questions will be answered.

No surprise, but this product is an Early Access cash grab. Just look at their "roadmap":

For the sake of add-on market, please do not buy this product.

Hmm. Is there anything on the list one would not for? Very odd.

[ckyliu 1,749]

Roadmap says No VNAV or Speed/Alt constraints until Phase 2, consequently no MFD vertical profile or FMS / AP airspeed mode. Phase 2 might never happen.

You don't even get landing gear aural warning in Phase 1! Which is scheduled for release on 10th Jan. When it will be missing HSI ARC and MAP modes (who uses rose more than occasionally?)

Just remember kids, you buy based solely on how it is now, not how they're saying it might become. Early access might be the only version they ever put out. And then it'll be less FSS and more FFS.

Screen Initialization / Boot-Up and Passenger Announcements voted ahead of absolute basic items such as Aural Autopilot Warning, AP Bank Limits, Landing Gear Aural Warning and a Flight Control Mode Panel? The flight sim community never fails to amaze me. 

I suppose if there's a market for the Bredok 737, CS 777 or a non-existent MD-11 in MSFS, there will be a market for this 'early access' E-175 too!

Yup, and the developer gets a cash infusion while discouraging any other dev who was considering an E-175 from entering the market. What a shame.

Oh dear, another dev pulling cheesy tactics for a cash grab.🤦‍♂️

How are people figuring out what’s actually included in the initial version?  I’m trying to navigate the site but can’t seem to find a proper list (at least on my phone).

Under 'Features', click on 'Roadmap'.
