Is Majestic Q400 dead?

Featured Replies

I'm really starting to wonder.  They have not responded to any posts in their forum asking for more info.  In fact they have not spoke of the MSFS Q400 since last June.  It's sad to me that they have totally missed MSFS.  Many of us were big fans of this airplane.  Anybody know anything?

    I'm over it at this point... It was an amazing plane in the FSX/P3D platforms though and I really miss it's unique complex character.

  • I truly believe we won't ever see a Majestic product in MSFS. The Q400 (from any reputable dev) is a big miss.

  • So, thus far this magic thread has lead to a resurrection of the Majestic Q400…and now the announcement of a top tier 787, all within 24 hours. Quick, someone make another wish…..

No idea....but it's been 6 years or so since 2020 came out... they've had plenty of time to learn the 2020/24 architecture lol.

Then again, a2a told me they had their Lancair in early stages since 2021.  I could have used it then 😂

I doubt. Not a big team and they work other jobs. We all know what happens when developers give information.

Last we heard I think they said the aircraft was nearly complete system-wish but they needed a modeller.  That thread was on here IIRC.  If it really is mainly down to getting the model done, it’s seems quite odd for them to be quiet this long.

An update one way or another would be well appreciated.

I few this plane a lot. One of my favorites.  Was really hoping it would come to FS2020 and now FS2024.  I am still hopeful, we will see it one day. But it maybe wishful thinking.

When I was flying the FSX version and posting about it in the Screenshots Forum, one of its key developers would be also posting there occasionally…

I miss that aircraft.

Loved the Q400 in P3D, but Majestic being silent since June a case of “it’s dead Jim” for me.

One of the only reasons I keep PD3 active on my system. I go back sometimes just to load and fly that wonderful plane. It's a shame a Hugh publisher like Just Flight can't assist with development of this aircraft.

If it is in fact dead, which seems likely at this point, it would be nice if they’d say something so another dev can work on a Q400.

Topic on the norwegian FS forum originally regarding the Dash 8-100 might be of positive reading since
a reliable source on the Dash (I believe ex-pilot on it) actually has written that 2026 will be a good year for Dash lovers. He already wrote in october last year
that some patience is needed, but something much better is coming followed by some recent activity that it might still be some time away, but 2026 is much 
better than nothing.

It wouldn't make a difference in the slightest. We know its not dead. They admitted they would provide updates when neccesary. All because we haven't heard doesn't mean it's dead. Comments were not even great from people even though they quite clearly mentioned its WIP.   

Majestic are still waving not drowning 👋
