I pretty much counted on both 146 and Maddog being delayed honestly.
Every delays is a proof that the developer is caring for his product.
Be nice if Asobo took a leaf out of their book.
Just got the email - looks like itâs available!
Same here, typical working all weekend.

"Update for you all - ore news on the 146 tomorrow folks. Itâs highly unlikely weâll release this week now. Lot of extra work to complete and get tested including the EFB work, the FMS work and turning the one variant into the eight variants. Itâs close now, just final bits to tidy and test, this will be done over the weekend and into the start of next week. More news tomorrow when we hope to be able to issue the pre-release build out to selected media outlets and streamers for more coverage pre-release. Bear with us, weâll tell more and youâll see more over the coming days. Thanks all for your interest, patience and kind and positive feedback up until this point. "
Which begs the question, did they fix all they wanted to or is it incomplete?

Forgive the repetition this is a post just added to the Avsim forum.
People now want a statement from us about the fact weâve managed to release the 146 when we said we originally would. Here you go, will have to be quick, itâs been a busy few days, weeks months and more to do tonight.
The product is in tip-top condition barring any issues that you guys unearth of course. Nothing has been left our or short circuited to enable an early release. We did believe by the middle of the week weâd have too much to complete to enable a release this week and as people were asking for an update about a possible release, rather that stay with radio silence, we communicated as best we could at that point and tried to be realistic, at that point we though the work and testing would drift into the weekend and with the Bank Holiday here on Monday it would mean a release midweek next week.
Things went really well from that point and excellent progress was made. Internally our aim was to always release by the end of the month and last night it became apparent that dream might become a reality. A massive shift from the team last night and best part of today means itâs ready after intensive testing periods.
Nothing fishy, nothing sinister weâve met our original target, we feel rather proud of that and prouder of the aircraft. Itâs a little (but beefy) belter. We hope you all enjoy it, well those who purchase it anyway.
All the best folks, have a great weekend.
THANK YOU! I am happy to fly her
