They haven't been implying anything, where did you get that from? They've clearly stated they will from now on never ever again state any sort of time references.

Aamir specifically said they are wrapping up now, all the bugs are fixed and it is just testing and integrating and that it will be weeks NOT months so that implies less than a month. Of course I might be wrong but we will see soon enough. In any case they seem to be building something extremely detailed, with stuff that not even A2A has attempted and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in MSFS. Did anyone notice the commnent about 16 pages worth of changelog JUST for the new avionics? And all that for a FREE upgrade, for an add-on that has been out for over a year! 
I really do hope their A319-321 sell well because they definitely deserve the money and recognition for such a huge achievement. I hope they stick around for a while in FS2024 and beyond.

I for one am really looking forward to “IAE Day”. 🙂

Just as an FYI, their interpretation of weeks is 1-12, with more than 12 being "months". I disagree with that interpretation, as I think anything more than 1 month is "months" plural, but language is a fickle thing.

5 - 12.

'1' would be 'week', '4' or fewer, would be 'month', both singular, without the 's' suffix.

Agree though, the definitions being used by Fenix are open to very different interpretation by people using correct grammar.

This is why I'm such a fan of Fenix. They could have charged for v2 block 1, let alone everything that's coming with block 2. Instead, they keep improving the A320 to new standards in flight simming and said only the A319/A321 pack is chargeable.

Yum IAE ❤️

I went through the same mental gymnastics until this week I gave a project manager an estimate of "8-10" weeks. Then I facepalmed and saw where they were coming from.

Do we have prices for the A319 and A321 yet?

It is a package deal for 39.99 Pounds, so about $49. That gets you both.

Better than PMDG where you have to pay full price for each version

It is an expansion, so you need the A320ceo already.

I know but it's still less than the 155$ asked price if you own the 737-700 and want to add the -600 -800 -900

FIFI would be the perfect Valentine… just be sure not to tell my Trolly Dolly 🙂

The Fenix Discord is the quietest  among many other MSFS related ones.

Summer time. Maybe.

Fenix will release block 2 with IAE's and the 319/321 when they suit its ready, accept it and live with it, its not like their current product is non flyable. Seems like they are trying to push the envelope with this product which I don't understand and most simmers would not understand either or care for. Seems like wasting time and money if you ask me.

What non sequitur arguments are some of you banging on about now?

• More accurate fuel burn rate for CFM engines
• IAE engines (and their more temperamental nature vs. CFMs)
• Renewed exterior model
• Halving the VC texture load on VRAM
• Updated EFB

Seriously, how is any of that (amongst many of the other features to come) considered to be "wasting time and money" or "[stuff that] simmers would not understand either or care for"? 
I don't know how you can come to that conclusion.
