@Rich instrument back lighting perhaps? Are there any pictures of this available yet?

Captain Bakon

@Rich yes the instruments were black with the night lighting but I remember being told it was still WIP. So I was wondering if there has been further work on the night lighting.

Captain Bakon

Is development still continuing, it's been a while since we've heard from you, we are getting worried!

Martyn

No need for worry, the project is progressing well and will continue to be our top priority until release.

We are currently busy finishing off some changes to the exterior models, completing the remaining systems code and liveries. As usual, we'll post new screenshots on our website and social media pages when we have something interesting to show.

As you can imagine, this is a mammoth project and there is plenty left to do before release.

Captain Bakon

Will it be coming this year at least? I’m VERY excited for a 747 classic.

Thanks guys :)

Captain Bakon

JF, are you guys still planning a release this year?

Rich

It will be out this year for sure.

Captain Bakon

This month or next?

Voice of Reason

@Captain-Bakon Work continues at pace but a release this month is probably unlikely. We shall see though.

Captain Bakon

So October or November is a safe bet? Rich said it should be out before the end of the year is that correct?

That's correct - Rich did say that.

Captain Bakon

Are you guys changing the windows on the fuselage to be smaller and the engine nacelles for the JT9Ds?

Voice of Reason

@Captain-Bakon Yes to both of them.

Captain Bakon

Can you guys show us the new model please?

Roebuck

I'm sure we'll see it when it's ready to be seen

Captain Bakon

It's been a while since we've seen an update, before they used to give us updates weekly but it's been a month and nothing.

Voice of Reason

@Captain-Bakon You'll see some new shots soon. Some bigger issues to sort over the last few weeks and it's not a simple job so it was impossible to supply new pics day after day. Stand by though we hope to have some new shots to show this coming week.

Captain Bakon

@Voice-of-Reason So will you guys keep the cockpit dimensions the same? it's perfect the way you guys have it! Too many devs back then made the mistake of making the windows too big in the flight deck but you guys nailed it perfectly!

Voice of Reason

@Captain-Bakon Yes, that won't be changing.

Captain Bakon

@Voice-of-Reason So what exactly did Just Flight change to the model?
