PMDG Announces 737 NGX Pricing

Hot on the heels of the announcement that the 737 NGX will drop on August 4, PMDG has finalized their pricing and release structure for the NGX.  It's actually pretty good news, overall.  To recap:

  • The base models of the NGX will be the -800/-900 series, both with or without winglets.  Price will be US $69.99 if you buy right away; otherwise, it increases to US $74.99 when the first expansion pack is released within 1-2 months.
  • The initial expansion pack will be the -600/-700 series models, both with or without winglets on the -700 series.  Price will be US $24.99, and it is expected to be available 4-8 weeks after release.
  • The "ER" variants (-700ER, -900ER) will also be available as an expansion pack, 4-8 weeks after the -600/-700 expansion.  Price and availability TBA.
  • The "BBJ" variants (BBJ, BBJ2) will also be available as another expansion pack, "subject to interest."  (If the PMDG forums are any indication, there is plenty of interest.)  Expected another 4-8 weeks after the ER expansion.  Price and availability TBA.
  • The "military" variants (P-8, Wedgetail) will also be available as another expansion pack, "subject to interest."  Expected another 4-8 weeks after the BBJ expansion.  Price and availability TBA.
Are you ready for the release?  I know I am!
