"Oh, we're working on that to be fixed before release" was the reply from Just Flight... yet it's definitely going to be released in five days time?! With that price point?! All these 'influencer' previews have done is turn me off the product. Such a shame. I'd mention that JF supports their aircraft. The 146 is still getting updates, the last one about a month ago. Not trying to gainsay or whatnot, just saying I'm sure they'll update this one too.

July 7, 20232 yr Wait this is 70 dollars!? That made it easy... PASS! 💩 Tired of Streetlights everywhere? Try MSFS DarkStreets today!
July 7, 20232 yr Commercial Member What’s with everyone comparing PMDG and other hi fidelity devs? Also stop saying the market is bigger etc… the Fokker definitely is not as popular as the 737 so definitely won’t sell as much as it did. So they have adjusted. I’m satisfied with the quality of just flights add ons, proven time and time again that they do it well. They have done the work and I’ll pay the price no problem, looks like a great add on.

July 8, 20232 yr I am waiting for the Fokker 100, but if the price is in this ball park, I may have to give it some extra thought! http://youtube.com/c/Greazer

I'll wait to see the prices Marketplace may have for this plane, before deciding. I’m just a big believer in people should get paid for what they do. And it’s not like they are a new dev, they develop good add ons and listen to the customer if anything else is needed. They have a proven track record of hitting the mark, and from what I’ve gathered we get three variants? I understand it might be pricey but imo not unjustifiable. I rather devs be satisfied as much as we are, continue to bring these classics in and at high quality rather than them realising it’s not worth the effort…. And we get another what airbus line ? Or Boeing line? Edited July 8, 20232 yr by Ridvan Celik
July 8, 20232 yr $70 so they have priced themselves up there with the likes of PMDG that dos't not sound very logical to me especially for a niche aircraft like this IMO. But hey best of luck and sales to them. But I'll Pass.

I guess we will wait and see once released.
July 8, 20232 yr Great price, great company, amazing aircraft. Been waiting for this one and can't wait until Wednesday. Jase Jaseman. Lovin it up here........ Catch us over at MassieSim32 -> https://discord.gg/B4buuHGhcr

Excuse me but still updating an aircraft only one year after release is the bare minimum I expect from a developer, not something to point out as a positive thing. Let's not drop the bar completely. For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.
July 8, 20232 yr Absolutely not going to buy that at 70 dollars. JustFlights track record is mediocre at best (despite most people saying otherwise, because they obviously forgot everything before the MSFS release of the 146) and this is a niche aircraft I'm only barely interested in. I'd buy it without looking at 30$, would have watched some reviews at 40-50$ and maybe bought it afterwards, but at 70$ I won't even bother looking at it. Next.

July 8, 20232 yr I still find it incredible that grown adults (supposedly) bicker sooooo much over the cost of add-ons/dlc in every simulation market (flight, racing). This after spending thousands on their PC, peripherals and rigs. Perspective people, this aircraft costs the same as a meal for two in a restaurant with the wife. One will give you joy and make you happy for many many years, the other will demand the bins are put out a day ahead of collection! Anyway, watching the videos for sure she does look a beaut, the sounds on take off are great. But it's not my kinda bird, so ignoring the cost, it'll be a pass from me anyway but one to put on the wishlist perhaps, just incase.
