Just Flight Fokker F27 work in progress.

I reckon that everyone producing content for FS should come together and form a cartel. We chuck all the planes that people would like to see made into a hat and we each pull one out. Nobody competes against each other for sales and users get a wider range of aircraft. Everyone's a winner!

Reading the discussions on some of your products in other flightsim forums, that would be a bad idea on one hand, but a great opportunity for some real Schadenfreude on the other*.
Imagine the amount of people whining for a PMDG 727, but JF (plus subcontractor) getting the golden ticket...the uproar would be nothing short of legendary.

There is of course plenty of room for freeware and payware versions of the same subject matter to exist happily together - just look at Rick Piper's Chipmunk and ours as an example. Both are enjoyed by loads of people for their own particular merits.

Nah, you'll win this one hands down. You've got a scratch-built exterior model, a VC that wasn't constrained by FS9 design standards during construction, competitive pricing, user reward program, an initial batch of paints and you usually tend after your releases with service packs or follow-on revisions (see the WIP L-1011 v2). Provided you'll get your Fokker experts for FDE input, the F-27 will even fly right.
I can't compete with that in any way.

The only area I can up you would be details. There is a review about the various payware 737-200 renditions available and the reviewer noted that none of the models featured realistic visual reverser operations (the reversers always fully deploy regardless of the amount of reverse throttle applied). So guess what the ones on my model do...

Deal!

I knew it, lol.

I think next up will have to be a T-28 "Trojan". Nobody could be silly with that.

Don't waste your development time. There's already a really good rendition of one at a fairly low price.

You might want to stick to stuff that doesn't have a FSX native model yet. I bet that you can fork in quite a bit of cash with native models of a 1-11, VC-10 or Trident.

I remember one guy (willem) at FSDeveloper was developing a F27 also, two years ago or so. He did great detail, but we haven't heard anymore of him...

Well, he wouldn't have to do a VC now...
 
Boys, I believe, if I know anything (should do after 11 years!) RAS's comment was a tongue-in-cheek pot-stirrer of the nicest kind....:engel016:

A payware dev with a sense of humour in market-related affairs. I like that.
