But we have finally reached the point in the endeavor where we can say, “Yes- this is a product that will serve the customer well and that we can be proud of.”Īt PMDG we have a long reputation for creating good, solid products that can be counted upon. That isn’t to say there aren’t other items we still wish to work on, or add, or improve, because there are. On Wednesday, we had our routine All-Hands meeting and effectively scratched off the last of the true blockers holding us off from release. This has always been the hardest part of produce development at PMDG deciding when we are finished. The creator can always turn the creation over in his hands and spot the flaws, long after it has exceeded the expectations of the recipient. The same can be said for nearly anyone involved in a creative endeavor, whether it be writing, painting, sculpture, movies or software- the end result is the same. Or, if you share my quirky view of the universe, you might consider him to be one of the least fortunate men ever to walk the earth, because he cannot see that work for it’s beauty. “If you have ever had the opportunity to see the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, you can understand why Michelangelo is commonly thought of as one of the Great Artists of all time. Randazzo also posted on the official PMDG forums providing more information about the product and its development. The announcement was made with the following video, in which PMDG CEO Robert Randazzo also speaks about what we can expect from the aircraft.
At the moment we don’t know when that’ll happen, as Microsoft needs to solve a relevant issue preventing some advanced aircraft (like PMDG’s own Douglas DC-6) from working on the console version of the simulator. If you’d like to know how much it’ll cost, that information is still pending, but we do know that each major version will be sold separately with the -700 being the first (including the passenger variant, the cargo variant, and the Boeing Business Jet variant), followed by the -600, the -800, and the -900 in this specific order, with approximately six weeks planned between releases.įo the moment, the release will be only for PC, but a launch on the official Microsoft Flight Simulator marketplace and for Xbox is planned. The aircraft will release on Monday, May 9, which is only a couple of days away. Today highly-praised third-party developer PMDG finally announced the release date of what’s arguably the most-anticipated aircraft add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator, the Boeing 737.
