Stay tuned! Just to fill anyone interested in, I’m just about finished building new industrial grade hairdryers for the 777…ie, we’ll be flooding the blog with pics probably by the end of the week.

Just a quick question (a bit off topic actually) but I have been excitingly waiting for the release of your new AC plus the release of Stratmans EADT x737 v3. Would any of you folks happen to know a release date for either? EADT x737 v3 was slatted for mid summer, but seeing how it is now getting into the late summer realm, I am getting excited. Any news would be great. Thanks for your help in this matter. Hello all.

Payware in x-plane always made me nervous as it's hard to know what you are getting. Although I'm sure you guys would ever try to pull something. Keep up the good work guys. Eagerly anticipating the releases Donation-ware is always good. Payware in x-plane always made me nervous as it’s hard to know what you are getting.

I've found 3D pits to be somewhat useless besides the eye-candy. That's a personal opinion, and though I love them, I much more prefer the old fashioned 2D panels because they are so much easier to operate, and the work you did on the current version is awesome! 3D pits are great when you simulate most systems and are doing complicated start-up procedures etc. Anyway, I'll let you get back to work now... but don't forget to add a donation button when time comes! :) That’s great for the community, and very generous of you!

We're hesitant to charge for the T7, partially for historical reasons, and also because we feel that the original release of the plane last summer was a bit under what we feel can be accomplished with the sim's current feature set. Also, we're still going to be missing a fully functional 3D cockpit (we'll have a basic one in there that can be used for looking around but likely not to fly the plane). More likely than not, the plane will be donation-ware, and strictly voluntary donation-ware at that; we wouldn't dream of holding the download hostage! Thanks for the feedback Dan.

And btw, don't hesitate charging a few bucks for the level of quality you guys show, if money is an issue to speed up development I hate to see good products delayed or that never sees the light of day, just because time and money was an issue! What you have shown so far is the most promising news in the community by far, it's all in the details, thats for sure! Anyway, keep up the good work guys! I can’t stop drooling over this T7:)
