Skipped all that to the 777 bit. I'll keep my credit and keep waiting the A310 ticks all my boxes atm.

I have $30 store credit and I think I'll save it for 777.

My guess is the marked price (-900) will be 54.99 US and like some others said will be sold at 49.99 US on sale on release day LOL good marketing PMDG. 

Now bring on the 777 previews already.

EFB/Flight Tablet? I still say it has something more to do with their GFO network product than a flight tablet they are trying to sell in the future.

Oh rats.

Told myself I wouldn't get the 900 (perfectly happy with the 600, 700 and 800).

But I wonder if I should interpret this as some kind of divine intervention as the 7th is my birthday...  😅

Not true.

so they'll release all the variants and still no EFB. Disappointing to say the least. It can't be a rocket science. 

I guess it is. Otherwise we would have had it out by now. If the standard of quality is what PMDG do i will hold.

Now bring on the -900 , cant wait to tailstrike that bird

Another 737, and the ugliest of them all, a definitive skip unfortunately. Ah, but there's a 777 on the horizon now, yay!

Just to expand on the "not true" reply, the credit may be used to puchase any product in the store but expires Dec 2024..

so that may even expire before the EFB or 777 hits shelf then 😉 

I have to wonder if the PMDG EFB will be a step forward with more to offer than other EFBs. Perhaps the delay is trying to build something new and advanced. Just speculating on the delay to build something we have all seen before.

But that's the intention obviously..

what I would love? A real EFB app for my iPad (i.e. not going over the browser). That would be something advanced

The most interesting thing to me in this update though is the navdata mention.  I really hope this means they're getting closer to rolling it out; ready to code up some custom RNPs!

I hope this means we can enter the gate number on the POS INIT page.

I saw someone do that on Youtube. Ar first, I thought it had to be Xplane when I saw the FMC accept the gate number, but then he activated GSX, and then another utility off of the handlebar. Does this work with Navigraph in some parts of the world?

For those really missing a EFB, i have found this addon great for providing all your Simbrief info, either in the in-game interface or Flo.
