This is great news! maybe we can see the 747 this month possibly! Will there be more pics and a video of the cockpit and the sounds?

@Rich Excellent, do you guys know which between the X-Plane or MSFS2020 version will get higher priority to be finished after the P3D version?

Oh, i would love to see the classic 747 in MSFS!
@Hewi Heck yes that would be a dream come true, MSFS is desperately in need of airliners especially complex functional ones.

Well considering just how complex JF is making the systems, it’s probably going to take a decent amount of time to recode them for FS2020. I expect it to take 9-12 months after the P3D release to make it to FS2020, though I wouldn’t object to it being sooner than that.
-
I guess release is imminent now, it's close?

@Captain-Bakon No, not that close. Sorry to disappoint you, still fair bit to complete before it's ready.

@Voice-of-Reason It's a few weeks out right?

@Captain-Bakon Possibly longer depending on your definition of a 'few'. Truth is we can't give a date yet, not even an estimate, still fair bit to do and then tweak, fine-tune, test etc...
Thanks for your patience.

@Voice-of-Reason Well Rich said the 747 team is zeroing on the release so I thought it would be closer.

@Rich will the 747 have advanced sounds such as air conditioning packs, avionics ventilation, etc?

Yes, like the 146 the 747 will feature a detailed sound set including custom cockpit environment sounds.
-
Do you guys have any new pictures for us? I believe it was said it would be presented to us either last or this week!

@Martyn
More pics or vids plz. -
We will try and sort some new pics and hopefully a video or two soon for you all. We'd hoped to have some new content for you to see by now but it's not been possible. We're not dodging the issue here, but want to ensure that when we have some new content for you all, that it's fresh new material, fit for airing, to show off progress and some new elements of the 747. Anything right this minute wouldn't look noticeably different to anything you've already seen. Rest assured, work, hard work continues on this and as soon as we can we'll show it off to you all.
In the meantime, thanks for your patience on this one, it's appreciated.

@Voice-of-Reason I figured that was the reason why there hadn’t been any updates in a while, and that completely makes sense.
-
So the new pics look great but I was wondering if the new cockpit lighting will be in P3D v4 too?

Yes it will.
Will post some of those pics up in here later on, too.

Any ideas on a release date. Been waiting a long time for this one.
-
Agreed, I just hope they release it next month been waiting for a classic 747 for years!
