747 Classic Progress

@Captain-Bakon Yes, that won't be changing.
@Voice-of-Reason So what exactly did Just Flight change to the model?

@Captain-Bakon Exterior mods to the model and a few other smaller things. You'll see soon enough.

@Voice-of-Reason Is there going to be release October or November?
-
Do you have ANY beta testing spots open for the 747? I never had beta testing experience but I want to test your 747 especially since Im a long time hardcore systems simmer. I have quite a bit of experience on both the A320 & 747-400 from well-known developers.
-
Looking at the description I say you guys are going for the study level classic which is great, can you confirm your going study level?
Since it’s going to be study level what is the price range?
Also you guys said it would include like avionics cooling fan and AC pack sounds right?
I want to see the new model can you please post some pictures?

The absolute thirst lmao
I think it's best to just let the devs be and get on with what they need to do. I remember when I was a teenager I similarly harassed them for answers, but it just makes the wait for the product so much longer. It's ready when it's ready, after all.
Though I do have a request, I would love to hear a sample of the JT9Ds or RB211s if possible.
In addition, I wanted to put in a request - could the manuals on things like takeoff performance, EPR, cruise etc be in charts and tables, akin to the documents from the Aerosoft DC-8? I like Just Flight manuals, but i find with analogue aircraft some performance data is lacking.
Also - I asked similarly re the JF VC-10 but it never came to be, but I would hope it would differ for the 747 classic - could you guys make some profiles for simbrief? It would be enormously useful, especially as I imagine this product would be quite popular.
Anyway, that's all from me, and I have no doubt I'll be a keen user!

Its almost the end of the week, any updates JF?
-
JF have been at the Flight Sim Show in Cosford all weekend. I suspect that it'll take a day or so for normal service to resume. You can search on YouTube however for a recording of the seminar given by JF on the 747. May answer some questions you may have. It also should give you an insight into what goes into the development of a product such as the 747 and what you'll be getting in terms of level of detail with this release.

Hi guys,
We recorded the 747 presentation on Saturday and we hope to be able to make it available to everyone later this week.@Panny said in 747 Classic Progress:

I'll see if we can get a short video together soon.

The manual will feature this information.

I was wondering if the 747 is coming next month

Anything JF? What about the video from the convention?
Any update pics for the fuselage or engines?

@Captain-Bakon When the time is right we'll supply a new set of pics for your delectation. It's not straightforward, with many things having to come together for us to progress and take a set of new pics to show to everyone. But we want to ensure they are correct and as close as possible to the finished thing to avoid any further rumblings and disappointment.
It's starting to look great now but just some pieces to fit together and then we'll be ready. A rough guide...towards the end of next week before showing it off but even that's no set in stone. It'll be worth the wait though, of that we're sure.
As always thanks for your interest, it's appreciated.

@Voice-of-Reason Can you please give us a rough rundown of what’s been done so far on the plane?
Is the 747 classic going to be study level?

@Captain-Bakon Blimey, that would take weeks, I have work to do. It's all covered on the Product Page though. It's mostly all in there now, just bits to add, fine-tune, test etc...

@Voice-of-Reason This is looking great and I think this will be your masterpiece for decades to come in the flight sim community.
I just hope we get it before Christmas. I wanna fly a 747 to the North Pole Polar Express style but with wings!

Ok so I looked at the page and it's definitely a study level sim, I just can't believe we are getting one for the 747 classic!
What is the price range going to be? maybe not the $140 as other add ons, I would say $60-90 possibly?
JF can you please confirm?
