Hi pilots who are always on the lookout for the next expensive study-level airplane and hyped for 300 pages PDF documents for the cockpit alone and 50 minute YouTube videos only showing the pre-startup procedres diving into absolute realistic system depth like a dolphin while beautyful cockpit illumination is getting switched on after sunset…

I have found a very promising YouTuber showing some truly exciting and promising planes I am absolutely hyped for!
Not only the Fenix Airbus will become perfect, but there are some other super promising planes too (YEEEESS the MD-80 Fly the Maddog is in development, Orbit Simulations is currently creating a second 737 and PMDG another one, and much much more…)

Have a look:

The Maddog with cockpit gauges illumination:

iniSimulations is one of the top notch study-level addon development team for X-Plane, finally also an Airbus for Flight Sim 20:

Fly by Wire Airbus A380

So many people were asking for a Super Constellation - here:

Airbus A310 with analogue cockpit:

A 727 with three engines is coming, and also my personal favorite in the Boeing fleet, the 757:

Please enjoy and look forward to the good times that will come with moooooar triple-A DLC airplanes than your wallet can bear! :smiley:

Soon he wait is over and the “we-have-no-study-level-planes!” problem is over soon! :wink:
(And I wonder who is faster, me finding a Gigabyte Radeon 6600 for a perfect price to have a graphics card again, or PMDG giving a release date for their 737…) :ok_hand:

Triple-A? Aren’t we overhyping quite a bit here? :thinking:

We have no idea of the final quality of many of these aircraft some of which are freewares developed by very small teams, nor it’s confirmed that most will be “study level” (for instance, the A380 almost certainly won’t be due to lack of data).

Incidentally, the Constellation is already out. It’s pretty good, but I certainly wouldn’t call it study level.

“Triple-A” is just a hype term with little meaning in the gaming industry beyond budget and team size. Triple-A games are simply games made with big budgets by large development teams. Quality doesn’t figure in the equation.

Not even the biggest developers in the flight sim community would even come close to qualifying as “triple-A” by that standard. Even if we adapt the meaning of the term to this specific industry (but I don’t really see a reason to adopt a nearly meaningless hype definition to be honest), it probably wouldn’t go beyond bigger devs with lots of money to spend like PMDG and Aerosoft.

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but excessive hype almost never ends well, especially when it doesn’t really represent the actual nature of projects.

Thanks for the videos.
As has already been said, the Super Connie is already available as a sort of early-release package. For that it’s much too expensive since the quality is below the PMDG DC-6 and it still costs almost the same. And I am always suspicious of companies selling you an unfinished product with the promise to complete it later.

And, what @Abriael said …
