Robert Randazzo, the CEO of PMDG, has taken to their forums to share some news about their now in beta 737NG3 for Microsoft Flight Simulator. It is one of PMDG’s most anticipated add-ons.
Robert has stated that the development is going the right way. Their team is now testing the aircraft and finding bugs and issues. The bugs found by the testers are corrected by the development team. At the end of the third week of testing, the testers had found 110 issues. Out of those 110 issues, the developers resolved 106.
The CEO said that the add-on is doing slightly better than he would expect for a new product for a completely new platform. The number of problems they are facing due to the PMDG platform interface is dropping rapidly. This means that the platform side of the NG3 is quite stable and the known issues are being worked on.
They continue to work on the system side while beginning to work on improvements on the visual side such as dust, dirt, stains and wear. To illustrate that, Robert attached 2 screenshots of the CDU and the Lower DU from his testing work. On those, we can see some dust and fingerprint details.
Along with this update, Robert Randazzo has stated that he is working on preview videos in partnership with Drzewiecki Design. If you wish to learn more about the development of the NG3, I suggest you have a look at George’s article.
