HS-748 Request for update to FS2024 from former actual crew member on this aircraft.

Hi, I've always enjoyed the Just Flight HS-748 that was produced for FSX as I was an actual crew member on this aircraft back in the mid 70's in New Zealand for Mt Cook Airlines.
Because this was done so well for FSX I was wondering if there are any plans or you can consider updating this for FS2024? It was a very popular aircraft and I'm sure would generate a lot of interest if updated.
We need more iconic aircraft of this type & surely with all the work done for FSX it would make a good start for the developement upgrade?

Anyone else insterested in getting this classic British built aircraft back in the skies for FS2024?
Surely with Just Flight based in London UK and the fact that this was produced for FSX that some of the ground work has already been done to enable developement to start on converting the model to FS2024? -

The aircraft would need to be built from the ground up, as per the F28 and F70/100. Based on the sales of the 748 in earlier sims, I am not sure the commercials would stack up on this one.

I'd suspect that the sales of your FSX/P3D 748 were strongly impacted by the fact there was a superior freeware model available, and had nothing to do with the possible interest in the type. Although the freeware plane was FS9 (and earlier!) it worked well in the later sims, and was much more complete systems wise.
I for one would happily pull out my wallet for a JF 748 in FS2024. Or any other British aircraft for that matter...

Another vote for the HS748 from a another former 748 pilot.
It’s such an iconic piece of British aviation: BA, Dan Air,LIAT, Queens Flight, Andover and on to the ATP.
There’s loads of reference material available including a complete cockpit open for viewing at Woodford.
The freeware F27 seems very popular on .to so there is a hankering for noisy old turboprops !
