If only my beloved bird could fly in the rain in P3DV3. Before I migrated to P3D, the performance impact rain had on the J41 in FSX was not noticeable at all. Like Tor stated, not realistic but at least it was there.

Would love to see 100 and... 1. The 1 being a P3D version! And can ya make the seats removable for Alan! :wink:

The FO must have been transferred as I got stuck with him flying from CYVR to CYXS. Those pins got me too.

And as promised... Purchased first day! Thanks so much.

Another user here that can only do button versions. Looks like the Q400 still stays in the hanger.

II too had hoped the J41 would have been done by now and were now on V3 of P3D. Can I wait for a great product, yes. Am I hoping for some offical news from PMDG soon? You bet. :wink:

Visuals are amazing and still finding the right combination between visuals and performace using Orbx, REX, ASN and PMDG 737. Also loaded FS2Crew Reboot and Pro-Atc for a flight between KSFO and KPDX and was very smooth. Couldn't do that in V2.5! Only issue is I had to turn off all reflections as it made the water look like too much glass like appearance and unrealistic reflections.

I remember having a weird issue similar to this and I too am operating on Win7 but FSX is Deluxe. I fixed it by uninstalling through the control panel FS2Crew (mine is button version) then uninstalling the J41. Rebooted the pc. Installed the J41 and loaded it up in the sim. Exited the sim and in my case installed SP1 for J41 and loaded the J41 in the sim. Exit the sim. Run PMDG's configuration manager. Rebooted the PC (I do all this to ensure registry and cfg files are solid) . Load the J41 yet again in the sim and ensure it operates correctly in-depth. Then install FS2Crew and the update for your FS2Crew version. Run and enjoy. It was the only bird I flew until migrating to P3DV3 a few weeks ago. The J41 has it quirks and a few bugs, but I think is the most enjoyable PMDG aircraft yet. It is a hands on aircraft!

Didn't see it in the news update today but I really hope it's not dead. The J41 is my favorite.

If V3 performs as advertised with the VAS, goodbye FSX and V2.5. I was plagued with OOMs with flying the 737 in V2.5. I can fully understand the detail that goes into PMDG's aircraft and having a sim that could not unload old data was a show stopper. I'm all in for the J41 !!!!!

P3D J41 just has a nice ring to it. :Praying:

Same here. Just purchased the P3D 737 version and no overhead lights. Update: Figured it out. The knob take quite a bit of clicking to turn all the way. It works like a charm.

It's the best of both worlds. 1) Has good navigation with AP and 2) Can get into those small very scenic airfields. Personally I would settle and pay for just a P3D installer with little change to the current FSX version. I've tried other regional payware aircraft in P3D and they just don't cut the immersion the J41 has.

Too bad the J41 always has to take the back seat. Best aircraft to date from PMDG even with some of the bugs.

I have P3D but do not use it since the J41 is currently only for FSX. Once (if?) there is a P3D J41 I'll purchase it and say goodbye to FSX forever, to include all the money spent through the years on payware for FSX. I look at payware as entertainment value. That is, cost divided by number of hours flown = less then a soda per day and getting less by the day. Certainly less then a serious night out on the town! I understand PMDG's stance and as other have posted, will not criticize their business decisions and will continue to be a customer in the future. While it may be nice to trade one license in for a discount on another, not a show stopper.
