YES!  That's one payware aircraft that I want.   Otherwise I tend toward payware scenery more.

Just tried to check out the initial impressions from the new owners over at their support forum at Avsim.

Seems the forums have crashed!! :o  Suppose maybe too many people flooding in to see?

Think I'll wait a few days before I make the plunge.  When I had checked earlier in the morning, it took five minutes for the PMDG forum to load.  All the others where fine.


Biding my time,

$54.99, Hey man, it's probably worth it though. If you've seen their preview sections, the work they did on the plane is probably more than what Microsoft did on FS2004. (just my opinion). I'm sure there will be screenshots and personal reviews soon. I'll even post here if(server's down due to too busy!) I get it.

Its still only 1 plane. you can have 1000 liveries. $30 is about the top a one plane product should cost. No way can they justify that sort of cost.

Well it seems not everyone is thinking that way since they have stopped selling it since so many people want it  :o

Well considering they have pushed the bar even higher than I would guess any other freeware or payware out there with details and system integrations, etc, and the fact that a fairly dedicated team worked more hours than I would even care to guess...and all the animations and interior/exterior details PMDG puts into their work, I think $54.99 is quite a decent price for this aircraft. And soon enough it too will be in my hanger.

Its a bargain in my opinion and considering when I do get it I will spend countless hours flying it, compared to some video or computer games I get that Im done with or bored with after 8 to 10 hours that I pay $50 for, again....$54.99 is a bargain

So has anyone purchased it yet?

I can't get through like everyone else but did anyone get a chance to purchse it when it first came out?

F'ing bullsh!t!...I have been very unhappy with PMDG so far (halfa'ed products that cost a fortune...captainsim makes 2x as good products for half the price!)...and now that I decide to give them a 2nd...er...acutally 4th chance...they tell me their bullsh!t server is offline...
