PMDG showed up at the 10th German Flight Simulator Conference (sponsored by Aerosoft) in Munich today, and made quite a splash. Captain Robert Randazzo showed off some screenshots of the 777, and they look very exciting.
Now, for the best part: apparently, PMDG has been holding out on us. The 777 is nearly ready for beta stage! Robert expects beta testing to begin within about two months. Apparently, it will not be long before the first PMDG 777 models begin to take flight in our virtual skies. No details yet on pricing, or expansion models, but I will be keenly watching PMDG for more information about the 777 in the coming months.
"But wait -- there's more!"
As has been widely rumored, PMDG has also been working on a refresh of the 747X "Queen of the Skies" product as well. It is tentatively known as the 747 2.0, and will cover both the 747-400 and 747-8 models. The same technology and processes used to model the NGX and 777 have also been incorporated in the 747 2.0, which should make for an exciting refresh of this product. Robert says that they expect to have the 747 2.0 out to the masses about two months after the release of the 777.
Some exciting times for PMDG fans!
