ZitatAlles anzeigenMDG today announced the soon to commence BETA testing of their eagerly
anticipated B777 and surprised everyone by announcing that the next
version of their venerable B747, Version 2.0, will follow shortly
thereafter. Both will be released within a month or two of each other.
At the Aerosoft Convention in Munich, Germany, today, PMDG made a
presentation in which Rob Randazzo, CEO, reviewed PMDG's development
processes since 2008 and explained how PMDG has made some fundamental
design decision directions in their evolving product line. At this
presentation Rob also presented some of the images you see in this
article.
PMDG has historically been known for a development cycle that ranges in a
two to three year period. Attendees at Rob's presentation were also
surprised to hear that the B777 is within a month or two of BETA
testing, signaling a rapidly approaching release date. That will be
followed within a month or two by the B747-400 Version 2.0 and its
companion 747-8i.
The all new 747-400 package is known as V2.0 and it is based upon the
same technology engine currently driving the NGX and the B777. The
airframe will remain the venerable PMDG 747-400 that sim enthusiasts
around the world know and love. The same high resolution techniques
incorporated in the NGX are also incorporated in the 747, and are
expected to operate significantly more efficiently. The 748 version will
also include the same unique cockpit system.
