- PMDG has secured a deal to distribute CD-ROM versions of their products at Best Buy stores in the U.S. This is huge! Hope it will lead to increased sales and exposure for those guys. Compared to some of the subpar addon aircraft I have seen on sale now at places like Best Buy or Fry's, putting some PMDG products in place will be a huge improvement. Along with this, PMDG is lowering the price on their 747 product.
- The 737 NGv2 is progressing along well. No screenshots are available yet, as the team is working on modeling the cockpit at the moment. May have something to show off by Christmas. Do not expect a release on this until sometime well into 2010 at the earliest. One exciting aspect of this is that Boeing is apparently contributing some engineering support to the product. Very cool!
- The PMDG MD-11 Advanced Tutorial is finished, pending final review. PMDG will make it available soon.
- The PMDG product paintkits that were inadvertently removed have been restored.
- The PMDG Dash-8 is also coming along nicely, and a preview will be available soon. Robert teases us with a comment, "Prepare to have your assumptions turned on their ear." Hmmm. Wonder what that could mean? The only assumption I have about the PMDG Dash-8 is that PMDG will do an absolutely killer job modeling one in Flight Simulator. Can't wait to see what they're cooking up.
