...and a new 737NG.
Both aircrafts are intended for FS X though 8)

I'm drooling over the thought that they will make an AIRBUS. 8)

This will be great.....
But heres one of those really "Dumb Questions".......
How can you design a model for a program that hasnt' been released?

"PMDG 737 NGX:
==============
Ah- now this is fun. We are in the process of developing an entirely new PMDG 737 NG product line that will be "Just for FSX!" This product will be the much requested "Version 2.0" that will include all the latest technologies we have developed for the PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies product line, (including the fully 3D virtual cockpit, upgraded systems, IRUs, completely revamped autoflight/FMS systems, models, etc etc etc....) plus some extras just for FSX! This is not a product update to the existing NG line, it is an entirely new product line unique for FSX- and will give you the entire NG product line (737-600/700/800/900 and we expect BBJ/BBJ2 plus a few common military variants) in one package, unlike the FS2004 product line. Product pricing hasnt' been set, but it will be less than the combined product line cost for the FS2004 version. Release date? Not long after FSX reaches the market!"
I like the "Not long after" part.........
Are they privey to a "Early Release" of FSX? Can you imagine! They would have serious jump on every one else.

PMDG probably contacted Microsoft to get exclusive information about how things work.

However I doubt they have got a pre release version of FSX.

Same here.... Tongue

Oh well... Grin

Announcing:

PMDG A320:
==========
Yes- it's official. Work started last month on the initial lead in items for a much anticipated PMDG entry into the Airbus product line. The lead off product will be the PMDG A320- complete with a fully realized Fly-By-Wire simulation that will completely change your view of how Airbus pilots fly! This airplane will be a fully FSX compatible product that covers the entire detail of the airplane with the level of precision that only PMDG can bring you! There is no release date expectation for this product, other than to say that as other FSX updates/products release- this product will accelerate toward completion.

After the A320? Well...we aren't working on any of those projects yet- so i can't talk about them- but I did mention that we are starting a family, didn't I?

Okay- I think that's about all the exciting news I have for tonight.

Enjoy!
