Looks like good progress is being made on Hiroshi's 787 model.

Before the split, Andrew offered Hiroshi and his crew the original projectopensky.com domain, but the offer wasn't taken. That group settled on using Facebook for support. Andrew kept the domain and uses it to archive the original files.

Well, as a Facebook-challenged flightsimmer, I hope there is another way to keep up, and eventually share in, the new 787.
You may have to log in to see it. For a tube, it looks great so far.Hiroshi doesn't use the mega-poly method, but he does use every available poly for the standard method. Just about every linkage on the gear will be present and animated, same for the flaps and slats. You'll also have wing flex, built-in ground equipment, and other XML controlled goodies.

for which you need a FB account.
Would be appreciated if we could have updates here, though.
Sounds like a brilliant model in the making, I've wished and hoped for a good one of these, for years.
And especially, that FS9 would not be bypassed!

Absolutely! I already have them in the sim as AI, of course...

Hiroshi would rather see a nice exterior, so that's what he builds. The last VC to come out of the former Posky group was on the 777 series, and the interior on that was built by Jacob Kubique.
