Glad you're enjoying it. Release day makes me nervous as for the first few hours it goes quiet while everyone's watching it!

I'm in...  Got mine.       

I am an X-plane guy.   I am guessing this will help with  FF 777 but I will pick up the PDMG 777 FSX version for FSX-SE.     Although I am sure you do not mind x-planers using the course  :)

We're all about equality of simulation  :smile:

I'm sure the 777 Cadet Program is absolutely superb as I own and love the Dash 8 Cadet Program. However, at 40 dollars it is a bit too expensive for me now. I'm waiting for so many other releases in the pipeline which will empty my wallet. Nevertheless, I wish you great success with the new program. Maybe I jump on board later...

Please do, anyone with 777 in their username needs to be down with this! :)

I bought it today and it's filled a lot of gaps in my knowledge.  Really, really a nice course.  You asked Myron a number of times if he ever had this problem or that problem.  What problems did he have during his 777 time?

Me too. It's very good.

Frankly I have rarely flown the 777 since the first month after launch.

I rarely fly more than 60 minutes but I suspect the 777 will be seeing a few repositioning flights in the Pilotedge expansion area soon.

UK P3DV5 and Xplane 11 Simmer

System details: Gigabyte P57v7 CF2 17.3" laptop. Kaby Lake i7 7700HQ CPU (averaging 3.4mhz). NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 8mb (laptop version), 16 GB of DDR4-2400 RAM, SSD - Samsung 970 Evo  500GB M.2 NVMe, 1TB HDD 7200.

This is top notch compared to the Angle of Attack 777 training.

 

The AOA 777 had a lot of videos on theory, but little on actual practice. A lot of things in groundworks that were promised in the videos to be later covered in flightworks never were. and there wasn't even a lineworks.

The AOA Media training of the Pmdg 777 didn't even cover any failures or emergency situations...

 

So definitely I would say Airline2Sim fills in the gaps where AOA 777 left off... and being able to download videos without having to pay a $20/month perpetual subscription on top of the subscription itself is an improvement. AOA purposefully capped the Vimeo downloads to a pitiful 720p when only 1080p was available via streaming on Vimeo, and the excuse was the AOA eventually wanted to sell the videos as blu-ray physical media but they never went that route and still charge $20/month for 720p downloads.... Bad business practices!

I am a 737-800 sim pilot only, but really enjoying the videos and a lot of the knowledge is applicable to my 737.

 

Great job!

Great to hear all this feedback guys, glad we've hit the mark on this one - we agonise over a lot of it so it's good to see it works.

 

The AoA thing - I'm not sure why they did that. I'm sure they had their reasons. Hard copies are a thing of the past now. We'd have to charge $100 for the 777 on physical media to deliver it in HD. I'm planning on doing the 717 Program in 4k, that would be nigh on impossible to deliver in a physical format.

Congrats for this great release. It is pure joy to listen to you and Captain Ashcraft and watch you both flying the aircraft. I am eagerly waiting for these other videos to be released soon. 

 

Please keep up the good work. 

 

Thanks a lot and happy new year from Germany

Just purchased this! 

Watched part of the first one - really excited about it... Capt. Ashcraft sounds like the perfect training captain!  :wink:

 

Looking forward to dive into it. Sounds like it's a bit more extensive than the Dash 8 Cadet (which I also have). On a side note - I've purchased the Dash-8 Cadet course on Vimeo some time ago. Right now, I have the 777 Cadet training program on your own site - is it possible to merge the two, so both is available on the Airline2Sim site? (I know it most likely isn't, since Vimeo is a 3rd party - but I'd thought I'd ask, anyway).

 

Thanks Airline2Sim for your hard work and dedication!

Best regards,
