747 Classic Progress
-
Hello
I assume the lack of updates even the pics indicates you guys are busy working on fixing the plane?
Is late December a realistic window for release?
-
Let them work on it! It'll be ready when it's ready - much better than them setting a date and missing it, or worse yet releasing an unfinished product.
-
I wonder whether it can be available in 2019
-
All
It won't be released in 2019. Looking like early 2020 now. We do hope to be able to start sharing screens and videos come December time, that's our aim anyway.
Apologies for the delay with this one.
-
Love the new model, looks much more realistic great job JF!
-
@Voice-of-Reason When you guys say early next year, do you mean January or February?
-
I agree, the updates do look nice. However the lower cargo doors still seem to have the wrong opening angle.

That'll be looked at and fixed if it's an issue, thanks.

@Captain-Bakon Could be either. Both sit in the 'Early next year' category.

@Voice-of-Reason I'm sorry if this has already been asked multiple times, but how much would this bird cost once released? Very excited can't wait for the new year to fly this thing!

@alexsoany Will announce the pricing early January hopefully.

@Voice-of-Reason I did already leave a source on the opening angle of the cargo doors in another thread, but I’ll leave it here as well, it’s a pretty straightforward example. https://www.atclogistic.net/air-freighter-specification/

@Rich Thank you! It looks much more proper now, I’m glad you guys were willing to take that information to put it to good use! All too often small problems like this are overlooked and it leads to problems with systems like GSX and the like, as the proper ULDs can’t fit under the door. I hope the problems with the SCD and NCD on the freighter model are also being corrected. Can’t wait for this product in a few months. Also, now that more information about FS2020 has come to light, does JF possibly have plans on porting the P3Dv4 version of this to FS2020 when JF gets their hands on the SDK, likely within the next year or so?
-
No problem. Thanks very much for supplying the reference material. The opening angle has also been corrected on the 200 and 200F. Hopefully we'll have some screenshots of those variants out soon.
We can't make any promises at this very early stage, but the 747 would be right at the top of the list of aircraft we would want to get onto FS2020. Hopefully we'll be able to say more as more information about the sim becomes available.
