I decided to stick with plan A; to get it when it's fully compatible with 2024. On the PMDG site you have to add the taxes. In the market place they are already included.

This is done automatic after TOGA is selected. Michael Moe The LNAV armed for go around IS automatic, but it is shown as a white LNAV annunciation below the green active lateral mode during an approach. It does then switch to LNAV automatically with TOGA, but unless you're seeing the white armed annunciation first, it's not gonna do that. The PMDG still does not offer this option, despite it being very industry standard at this point. It perhaps may be a technical limitation for PMDG given their adherence to "in sim" calculations only, but I'll note that the iFly includes this as an option and it works well. Andrew Crowley
October 20, 20241 yr Have they (PMDG) ever previewed an upcoming update before? Probably just age, but I don't remember ever seeing a streamer preview of anything from PMDG. Good on them, if that's the case.

Not sure about updates to existing products, but they did have streamers showing off the 737 and 777 before they were available. Andrew Crowley

I'm UK based, so was expecting taxes at 20%, went through a test purchase direct from PDMG, all the way through to the "Place order" tab, but the price stayed at $74.99, when does the tax get added?

October 20, 20241 yr TBH, judging from the videos, the nose wheel movements are still super jerky and feels super arcade. This is one aspect that Fenix did a great job about. MSFS2020, 24, Fenix A320, Ryzen 9 9950X3D, ASUS TUF RTX 5090 ,G.SKILL 64GB 6000MHz CL28

Can anyone with the EU can confirm that taxes are not added? Since then the prices wouldn't be that much of an issue.
