I wouldn't bother trying to convince some folks here. Their condescending tone telling people how they should think when folks have clearly shown old code used over and over. Facts in front of everyone, yet somehow they feel like telling everyone it isn't real and they haven't seen anything. Let's not...LOL

Plenty of evidence out there, but I am done with this now. It is is boring and you fan boys won't change your minds. So little ion the way of facts LOL. Keep your eyes closed and pay your money.

Yeah, let's all agree that PMDG rehashed stuff..got caught out..then had to do something to actually fix it otherwise they'd lose customers. Also, I love the always overused argument - I'm in the biz so I know and you don't. LOL

They are actually updating the aircraft to MS2024 standards instead of trying to pass off an old model as 'new'. Many people have proven this to be true. It is so obvious, but you are obviously such a PMDG word not allowed you are missing the point every single time. Sad.

Except for when they charge for code that is re-hashed from years ago. NOW they are making it right, but only after customer feedback. They realize that if they don't do it then they will vanish. Like I said in the other similar PMDG thread - at least they are releasing something..unlike ifly and the JF Fokker. I'll give PMDG that..

PMDG are making it right at last. Charging people for code that is a rollover from the last decade is pretty bad. They knew they were being 'surpassed' by other devs and had to do something if they are to remain relevant and not upset too many people. They had to make a product that fits MSFS24. On that subject..about time devs started to give up on MSFS2020 and earlier. All devs should be 24 going forward. Lastly, at least they are releasing something..still waiting on the ifly and the JF Fokker70/100 -- starting to think they are never going to release those. I'll buy the PMDG 700 for sure.

Nice aircraft. There is something about it that feels about 90%..not sure what though. A2A aircraft feel 100% out of the gate.

I always think the water color is too blue in MSFS2024. Rivers and lakes in England shouldn't be a blue color all the time. The English channel looks too blue. Is there any way to make some of the water a more green color as in real life, or are we stuck with false looking water colors? Thanks! Harry.

Just Flight aircraft are amazing. I am waiting on the Fokker too. The last update they had I think was Dec of last year. Unless anyone knows better. The screen shots always look so good and they tease of a 'soon' release then nothing., I know it isn't that simple, but.. Anyway, I will add this Airbus to my list of aircraft I really want lol. Thanks for posting!

I have a quick question on Rex Atmos that really doesn't warrant its own thread.. You start a flight and then Rex Atmos..choose your presets or change the sliders yourself..save it..then exit Rex Atmos..the settings are persistent from then on? Thanks!

It is a pity that Jayne and Chewwy seem to concentrate more on creating the world's most toxic discord server, and not more time 'community managing' for MSFS. That could go a long way of bridging the gap between MS and the public while Jorg et al. are radio silent.

Yep! Something to look forward to. He just confirmed 3PM EST (8PM GMT).

Marwan just mentioned in discord that the release should be around just over 3 hours from the time of this post.

Oh wow. Thanks for the suggestion. I would have never thought about that. I was merely replying to someone else here, I bow down to your superior knowledge. I forgot what Avsim was like.

OK. I have made 8 or 9 posts now and STILL need someone to approve my posts? Kind of embarrassing and unnecessary. I am obviously not a bot. How many more posts do I need before I am trusted to post on my own? Sorry..but I am not a kid or a bot and it is kinda strange after this many posts I am still not trusted. Harry.

I love the ifly so much. Glad to see it working so well in SU5! I am tempted, but still nervous lol.

That is disappointing. Weather is one thing they should be working really hard on improving. It is a MAJOR part of the 'sim'. I hope they aren't removing stuff to make it work better on consoles. I am going to have to seriously stop spending money on this sim if they keep regressing.

I hope you recover quickly!

I keep changing my mind every other flight on what type I want to fly. One minute it is the Comanche, the next a 737, then a Citation X. That kind of flying doesn't lend itself to a more disciplined structure that some of the add-ons mentioned need. I am interested in reading about them though. I am also always happy to put money down on something and only use it for 5 minutes too lol.

Yay! Good luck everyone! 🙂

It truly is very bad. One of the worst run communities I have ever seen. They seem to hire the absolute worst moderators and it just turns everything into poop. I hate to be so negative, but I just wouldn't want folk to have to deal with it lol.

Well to be fair MS didn't tell everyone that the upgrade would cost 'a couple of cups of coffee'. Kind of a strange comparison. In any case, a 'couple of cups of coffee' is a weird way of saying 'not a lot' when the upgrade price is not 'a couple of cups of coffee'. It the upgrade price was in line with the 600 upgrade price I would agree with the coffee thing, but the 800/900 were a little more than that. Also, PMDG stated 'from the ground up'. I believe that seeded some of the anger people feel. Like Georgleboui said above, it is just 'fine' - same as the old one. Rehash of old code etc... Combine that with the staff and forum being what it is, then there will always be some push back from parts of the community. Don't get me wrong. I have all PMDG's stuff. I am not a hater, but now they have competition and need to be a little more careful IMO. Some other stuff out there is truly starting to shine. Harry K.

Just to provide a little something different - I really love the OV-10 Bronco by Azur Poly. The cockpit is absolutely stunning.

As many have said - it is the mods there that have spoiled it for everyone. It is exactly the same on their official discord too. Every mod there is out for themselves and the whole place went down hill very quickly. That place is way worse than the official forums lol. It is nasty. Such a shame. Harry K.
