    Anyone got this yet? What's the verdict?

    Have been following this project for ages but am holding off on purchasing until they clarify if there'll be an upgrade path for when the Advanced edition is released. It's a bit of a farce that they don't have an answer for this yet :rolleyes:

    I think if it delivers on most of what they say it will, then it will definitely rival, if not surpass, Level D and PMDG.

    The bus is a very very complex plane. Far more complex that the 767, and about the same as the MD11.

    I reckon it was cashflow problems that made them release the Basic edition. It has been in development for over 3 years now so its understandable.

    Have you watched any of the videos? Stuff like brakes not working if your hydraulics are turned off and the accumulator runs out. I dont know of any other addon that does that?

    I don't know if they plan on distributing it in bricks and mortar shops. The commerce system they use is with Flight 1 though. It's $90 for the advanced, not €90.

    You're completely right though, after spending that type of money I want something as stable as LDS767 and as complex as PMDG.
