And if my grandma had wheels she would've been a bike

If after four years the plane still cannot capture a localizer or do a simple hold, I don't think the problem is with the beta testers...

The feedback session probably went something like this: CRJ Driver: We should be able to use FMS to program a hold at a waypoint... Aerosoft: Best we can do is to draw a bunch of squiggles which autopilot will then refuse to follow.

So, to summarize the preview of CRJ V2 from A330Driver livestream: - VNAV is buggy - STARs are messed up - Holds do not work - LOC capture does not work On a positive note, the passenger cabin graphics are updated! I guess we need to wait another couple of years for fixes.

We don't have to imagine, we've seen the Aerosoft's A330 appear.

Hoping to start an annual tradition: on the first day of each New Year ask when the update for CRJ will be released.

If anything, in view of A330 debacle, Hans Hartmann's silence regarding the CRJ update seems like a smart strategy.

In that case, I will buy TWO copies of the updated CRJ and donate extra one to another flightsim enthusiast in your name. Speaking of which, as a loyal PMDG customer now, shouldn't you post with your real name?

Just FYI, if you haven't been watching Rafi (Aerosoft Community Manager) flying CRJ (ABANDONED!!) on his Twitch stream for the last several hours... He said that CRJ (ABANDONED!!) update was/is planned before the MSFS2024 release date, but it is Hans Hartmann's project, so he does not know exactly when the CRJ (ABANDONED!!) update will actually release. Back to your regularly scheduled ABANDONED!1! posting.

That's because there are not nearly enough posts about how Aerosoft has abandoned the CRJ. I am sure if we double, maybe triple this amount, surely then developers will change their minds. Failing that, only round the clock vigil outside Aerosoft HQ will do.

Wow, I had no idea software development can be so incredibly complex. More than one person working on a project?!? People with different responsibilities?!? Crazy stuff!!! Thank you for sharing your valuable expertise. You should definetely contact Aerosoft and tell them about this novel "Product manager" concept you've just described.

But why should they spend more time on an activity that adds relatively lesser value? Because it sounds like in order to maximize product's value, one needs to hype the product as much as possible, while doing the minimum amount of actual development... Do you want Aerosoft to cut half of the planned features from the upcoming update and just start posting weekly "work-in-progress" screenshots instead?

There is also an old Yiddish saying that translates to: "Don't show a half-finished job to a fool".

The truth is that software developers should develop software and not spend 50% of their time "managing expectations".

But we have not heard any news from Microsoft on MSFS2024 for MONTHS!! At this point, MSFS2024 is nothing but abandonware!
