PMDG's "not-yet-announced" project

[lwt1971 7,457]

Well hmm... Mathijs first posted today in https://forum.pmdg.com/forum/main-forum/general-discussion-news-and-announcements/283505-come-and-meet-us-at-fsweekend that their secret/unannounced project will be revealed at the upcoming FSWeekend event in Netherlands (March 16-17) and has since updated it to move the reveal and demo out to FSExpo 2024 in June which they'll also be attending.
"We decided to move the demo of our not-yet-announced project to the FlightSimExpo 2024 in Vegas, where we will also have a stand."

Wonder what it'll be... interesting to note when someone speculated 757 or 767 or maybe that it's not even an airplane Mathijs responded with "warm": https://forum.pmdg.com/forum/main-forum/general-discussion-news-and-announcements/283505-come-and-meet-us-at-fsweekend?p=284709#post284709
 

Can't be the 737 MAX since it's already announced and they've said they are well into its development.

Although they moved the demo out to FSExpo hopefully they can at least reveal something about it earlier.. but maybe not, so as to draw folks to FSExpo.

Global Flight Ops 2.

Just want to put the wackiest prediction down first so I get credit when they do something that silly.

Ya perhaps it is indeed a non-aircraft project. If it is an aircraft very likely a Boeing I'd think, though would be quite interesting if something else. Also keep in mind on a previous update https://forum.pmdg.com/forum/main-forum/general-discussion-news-and-announcements/281875-27jan24-we-have-been-busy-and-travelling-but-we-are-hard-at-work when Robert said: 
... the weekend prior was much more interesting as we had a small portion of the PMDG team together on a research trip related to our next new product line. More on that later, ...

GFO v? even though that project was announced like 5 years ago. Really hoping its a 787 though.

My money (and there's not a lot of that!) is on the 787. 

[carlanthony24 579]

I do hope a 787

[verbal 106]

Could it be the 777-8/-8F/-9/BBJ/10X?

[ryanbatc 13,037]

I'd take a PMDG long range business jet...  Falcon 7x/8x pretty puleaaase.  Or a Global - i dont even need those new fancy avionics, just anything long range... mach .90 cruise 🙂

[micstatic 4,340]

I wouldn’t mind a business jet. Long range wouldn’t matter to me. However would love one that’s not using modern avionics. But one that’s not too old either.

Perhaps they bought out and finished the left for dead 742 Classic project from JustFlight.

I would be very happy about that.

Is GFO even a "thing" anymore?  It seems like it's been forever since they announced that.

[bobcat999 8,507]

Yes, 'warm' applying to the numbers, might mean B747.  I would like the old B747SP actually.  I really loved that plane, something about the proportions, and I would like to see something different for a change.

I used to see Pan Am, TWA, Syrian Arab, and South African Airways B747SP's at Heathrow, and maybe the rare Saudia one occasionally, and the fancy orange Braniff one at London Gatwick.

{Sigh} Those were the days.

New version of the EFB UFT? [hides]

[bendead 1,090]

In previous interview, RSR said that he would love to do a business jet, either that or an older Boeing

Well, you're in luck! 

Just get the 737-700, choose the BBJ and you're off on your next >6,000 mi flight! 😉

Not quite as fast, of course, but you'd have to step up to the Falcon 10 to get longer range.

Just kidding (sorta). It'd be great to have a really fast biz jet with long legs. 🙂
