PMDG 747 X at Best Buy

Hey guys:

At my local Best Buy, they have boxed Aerosoft products.

The Jayhawk for $24.99
The F-16 for $29.99

and....

the 747-400 X (by PMDG) for $24.99! :) I asked them about the price, and they said 'its correct.'

Just a heads up.
 
The 747 would be quite a value for those desiring the experience of what it takes to fly the real one! A lot of work went into that one!

That's a helluva lot better than $70.00 at the Aerosoft website. I reckon I'm gonna have to get it now. Best Buy website has it as $29.99. Still a dang good bargain.
 
Yes, I saw this at the store the other day. This and the F-16. I wonder if one of my videos is on there? :D That would sure make my day.
 
I hope Best Buy continues to partner with Aerosoft; more Aerosoft titles at this price sure would be amazing. (Imagining the new A-10 for FSX at Best Buy for a reduced price sure is a nice thought)
 
I could not resist and bought the PMDG 747!!!
Time to learn about the FMC, should keep my brain busy for awhile.

Where do I find what version I have on the 747-400x. I see they have an update at there website but don't want to do in case it is already in the boxed addition.

Apparently, correct me if wrong, Best Buy has added the Twin Otter. But it is available online only at this time for order and can be shipped.
747-400 X Queen of the skies
F-16
Seahawk and Jayhawk
DHC-6 twin Otter (online only)

All Aerosoft, all boxed, all $29.99.

Hope that is correct.
 
Yes Twotter is available , and soon in stores as I hear from a regional Manager for Best Buy. I just bought 6 Twotters online for X-mas Presents.
 
I'm sure it has some to do with the announcement on Aerosoft's web site on Saturday:



Aerosoft invades the USA

Aerosoft has now opened a subsidiary in the US! Effective immediately, the office will process all American orders, which means faster and lower-cost shipping for our customers. It will also drive new sales efforts and open up new retail channels for our products.

Wolfgang Burchhardt will be heading the office. His background is in the gaming industry, having previously being head of development at the famous model train company Märklin. He will carry our FlightSim, TrainSim and other PC simulation product variety.

(but don't contact them for any customer support for download products, okay? That will remain on our forum)

And actually now many of their aircraft, the boxed sets are cheaper than the downloads. I've been thinking about the DiscusX:

Boxed $29.99, Download $34.58
