Vor kurzem hat iFly über Flight 1 die 737 NG für Prepar3D veröffentlicht. Jetzt folgt die nächste Stufe der Evolution. Die 737 MAX 8 ist jetzt für Lockheed Martins Flugsimulator verfügbar.
70 Dollar kostet die Maschine und kann über den Flight 1 Agent erworben werden. Kund:innen, die schon bei der vor im letzten Jahr erschienenen NG zugeschlagen haben, sollen bei der MAX einen Rabatt bekommen. Beim Prepar3D muss mindestens Version 5.3 vorliegen.

Ja so grundsätzlich schon cool. Aber jetzt noch 70$ in P3D investieren? Puh…
Würde mich mal interessieren wieso die nur für Prepar3D veröffentlichen.
Meine Vermutung ist eine saulange Entwicklungszeit, in die der Release von MSFS gefallen ist.
Ich hoffe für die Entwickler dass sich die Arbeit gelohnt hat. Ist immer schade wenn sich Entwickler aus Gründen der Rentabilität zurückziehen.
Ist richtig geil !
wäre schön, wenn es auch europäische/deutsche liveries gäbe!!
