Things to come to MSFS... Soon (?!)

I think it will be a stretch for them to sell many copies if the price was any higher. How much are you going to invest into a platform that is in its sunset phase. I am sure they are hoping that at a reasonable price -- and that certainly is for the level of detail they have given this aircraft -- that people will be willing to buy and use it while they focus on MSFS. I would not at all be surprised if the price for MSFS is considerably higher.

Considering MSFS market size, demographics, PMDG & Fenix, I believe the >$100 study level add-on price is (thankfully) dead.

 sunset phase.

If you mean for the consumer/public, then ok.  But I don't think it's in it's "sunset phase" commercially.  Lots of military and commercial/industrial clients.   They won't buy the Concorde though, I'm pretty sure about that.

Well... I know of at least one buyer here in Avsim for the Concorde. 🙂

Hardware: i7-8700k, GTX 1070-ti, 32GB ram, NVMe/SSD drives with lots of free space.
Software: latest Windows 10 Pro, P3Dv4.5+, FSX Steam, and lots of addons (100+ mostly Orbx stuff).

Cool, so actually TWO Classic Learjets!! 😃🤩

will soon show up! 👍

Are they all for MSFS-2020? The Extreme Prototype 25/28 seems to be Prepare3D v4-5 ?

 I only use MSFS2020(24) / Aerofly2(4)

The Flightsimware Learjet35/36  is MSFS2020

Actually 3, if we count with the "Freeware" Learjet still in progress. 😊

 

Looking forward to the Reviews! ☺️🤩

I think the sun has basically set for the consumer/public/hobbyist; or we are at least well into dusk. But even for the commercial side, I assume LM is actively recruiting new clients to version 6 and trying to encourage those on earlier versions to move up and it is unlikely there will be any further upgrade development done on version 5, which is why I thought of it as essentially in a sunset phase. Beyond the version change, if I have read the news correctly, it seems that LM is planning on moving from the old ESP code at some point, so even for the platform as a whole, whose code is up to 25 years old, it seems to be drawing near the end of the day.

MSFS 2024. Primary Planes: Black Square TBM850, Duke, Baron, Caravan; A2A Comanche; FSReborn Phenom; Fexix A321; PMDG 737-7, 777: Utilities: Active Sky (Passive Mode); BATC, FSLTL.
