DC-3

I really hope it's not a non-aircraft product, as they've not had good form in those arenas!

RSR is a little like Scott Gentile in that he values personal connections to aircraft that he then develops.  So with that in mind, and the fact that he formerly owned a DC-3, I reckon it really could be this.

My preference would be a 757, 767 or 737-300/-400/-500.    But TBH, I'd buy any aircraft that PMDG released, as long as it's not a war bird.

My guess would be an A320 as they are very popular.

Now that's funny right there.

It wouldn't make any sense to announce a new aircraft given they still have light years to go on their current product line.

 

Yeah I kind of agree with you no sense of announcing a new aircraft in June when they have at least another 1-2 years left to get the 777 line, 73Max and the 747 line into MSFS. Something tells me it has something to do with the UFT or EFB most people call it.

As lwt1971  quoted from his original post which I silliness did not read "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".

correct error

This thread is really making me think.  I can't come up with anything conclusive in my mind.  Its really anyone's guess.  I really don't think it will be any sort of business jet.  More than likely it will be an airliner of some some sort.  I believe our hobby needs a kick start for classic jetliners.  The 727 is almost a flight simulator requirement and just about every flight simulator created during the internet era had a quality 727 available.  

I am going with a 727 package!

Since folks are throwing out classics, how about an L-1011. If not, then I’ll take a 727. There hasn’t been a good one since the DreamFleet days. If it’s a modern jet, then 757, 767 or 787 will do.

It's german, but you all can use a translator. 

There are probably hints in the UFT Code about this secret secret

Ok so they are hinting at a 717-200. I would have preferred an A330 but let’s face it a Boeing is more likely from PMDG

[guenseli 1,606]

We could dream one moment to live in a perfect world:

FSLabs releases A330
PMDG releases 777, 747, 717
Fenix releases Block 2
FBW releases A380
A2A releases whatever
BATC releases BATC
MSFS releases MSFS2024

and all this in Q1/2024 😁

Not the Boeing product I was hoping for. Will see if it holds true.

A 727 including a CIVA INS navigation made by PMDG would be a day 1 purchase for me, no doubt about it.

I'd love a PMDG biz jet, if only they had access to one!. 😉

Prefer modern, but their Falcon 50 would do!...

Apparently other simmers have found the 717 entry in the EFB file before and Makris from PMDG said they are not doing a 717.

too bad.  I for one would have loved it to be the 717
