PMDG Showing Off The 777

PMDG has been very low key about their upcoming 777 for the most part, but there are signs that this is beginning to change.  Robert Randazzo has been giving a nice preview of the 777 model - with some very intricately modeled features - in a couple of threads over at AVSIM:

He has promised an in-depth look at the flight deck soon, too.

Usually, when we get to this point with a PMDG product in development, we are within a few months or so out from a release.  No timetable has been officially given by Robert yet, and for all we know, he might just unexpectedly spring it on us one day.  But we are getting very, very close.  This will no doubt be an exciting complement to the NGX for long-haul operations.

PMDG has also been showing off some 777 liveries over at their Facebook page lately, as well.

Elsewhere, at the recent FANCON gathering, Robert also had some interesting things to say about the future of flight simulation, among other topics.  Enjoy!
