June 25, 20241 yr Do you guys want to laugh? I fell asleep watching a movie on my iPad, at about 4:00 p.m. I open my eyes, check the pmdg 777 page on my iPhone and I think I see that it is on sale for $69.99. I run to the computer, where I still had the triple 7 sale screen for $324.xxx F5 There are no changes I go back to my iPhone and think... It's the cache, because I buy it from the iPhone (where I see wrong with the smaller font) I go back to the PC, open my email, get the download link and the verification code. I download, and meanwhile, super sure of myself, I look at flightsim.to in case there is a new livery. I click on install and it appears: Repair Remove Reinstall and I say... wait a minute... I have bought the 737 800 again!!!!! Then I run to the bathroom mirror, look at myself... Indeed, I look like an word not allowed!!! ha ha ha pd Opened a ticket and got a refund uff!
June 25, 20241 yr Just to break the flow here a bit - I had no idea the 777 was longer than the 747, its size is deceptive. Bloody hell.

June 25, 20241 yr Just now, El Diablito said: Ah yes, my bad, I should've typed 747-400! No worries, it was obvious you were referring to the 400. The 777-9 is longer than the 747-8 however, so you're technically correct!

Been doing it a while...and you've been supporting me from the beginning, and I honestly appreciate folks like you who take a few secs to acknowledge us freeware painters who give our creations to the community without cost. 😉 Plus I like painting when I know like-minded folks will get enjoyment out of them. And don't think I forgot about your crazy Canuks....This one is being updated right now and roll out to flightsim.to next. I just hope I can get it done today (I think I will...had to update the doors, all TEN of them!) And this one is in the hopper....but a ways back because it has gold replication issues (its HARD to create that gold effect, and get it close, trust me) Check you PM Dave. 😉😉 Regards, Steve DraGet my paints for MSFS planes at flightsim.to here, and iFly 737s hereDownload my FSX, P3D paints at Avsim by clicking here

I have the entire collection for prepar3d msfs excepting the DC. This explained I got refunded immediately. but this post shows clearly the toxicity of todays community. sad

June 25, 20241 yr Now you guys stop interrupting me with all these nice comments...you know...ones I feel motivated to reply to...not most of the posts PMDG threads seem to attract. I have 10 doors to re-do...among other touchups! Just kidding....reply away...but if I don't reply in a timely manner, you know what I'm doing (what else would I be doing?, LOL) Regards, Steve DraGet my paints for MSFS planes at flightsim.to here, and iFly 737s hereDownload my FSX, P3D paints at Avsim by clicking here
