May 4, 20242 yr I remember Fenix announcing a major delay in their recent major update and the community lauding it as a sensible, responsible decision. David Porrett
May 4, 20242 yr Looking at the bright side: At least all the major airports will most likely be out by then also. The only exception being KDFW, maybe. EDDF, LFPG, and LIMC are the only ones left. LIMC and EDDF are already well into development. Feeling spicey today. Jeff D.

Well, Fenix has received death threats by "the community" because they delayed the IAE for a couple of months. So much for that. Also it's not about delays or not, the context is much larger. It's more about persons, companies and expectations. Aamir is loved by almost anyone, RSR on the other hand... well you get the point. Fenix has been applauded for coming out of nowhere with a study level aircraft, while PMDG has been critcised for bringing out the same 737 with the same subpar LNAV for 10 years. And so on and so on. For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

May 4, 20242 yr I wouldn't worry too much....inibuilds will probably have their 777 out soon....for free 🙂 Jeff D.

May 4, 20242 yr The best about PMDG updates? The crying of the community afterward. No matter what was said.

And so on and so on. At least they communicate why they have delayed the next update. Aamir literally confirmed its to do with SU15. PMDG say its nothing to do with SU15. Who knows we do not get the full story do they not want to blame Asobo again since they already done that. Edited May 4, 20242 yr by carlanthony24
May 4, 20242 yr LOL...what in the world is he doing? I know he's just trying to answer a question, but honestly, he's light years away from needing to worry about the secret project. They have all the rest of the 777 and ALL its variants to go through as well as the MAX and ALL its variants. Not to mention the 47. He's at least 3-5 years away from worrying about that. #7.2 Mathijs [PMDG] commented Today, 09:17 That is a good question, the PMDG marketing division (aka me) will discuss that with leadership this week.

May 4, 20242 yr It will be here when it get's here, am I chomping at the bits for it to release? Sure but it's not something I have control of so why would I get upset about it? People are just too impatient these day's. --Sean Hart

Just come vaguely close. Plus, he's previously referred to himself as an old man after joining PMDG.

I think the secret project was the CPDLC thing (not so secret though). Honestly, I'm really happy to see them taking this on with the networks. It's been a long time coming and much needed. If it's another airplane, then, I don't know what to say. I'm also really happy to see them bumping their feature set up a few notches also. So while we razzo them a bit, at least we know the triple donkey should be great. Anyways, they should be making a space shuttle to get him back down to earth. 🙂 Jeff D.

May 4, 20242 yr Well I'm not a betting man but if I were to guess their next project is to complete GFO. That is my 5$ worth. Book it.
