The good news. You might be entitled to a free upgrade to the 777 Captain for P3Dv4 when it arrives,


I highly doubt this, CS allowed no such upgrade path with the 757, even if you wanted to update to the 32 bit version they still charged roughly 90 percent of the price of the 64 bit version.  I doubt CS will ever release anything again without finding a way to charge for it.  Not complaining, I purchase what I decide to purchase in the end, but I really have zero confidence that CS will ever put out a free upgrade again. If they wanted to port the other AC over, they would have done so by now.


The reason the 757 was so much and no upgrade was because it was an entirely new aircraft. So it should be treated as such. The 737 got a free upgrade if you owned the P3D v3 version. The 737 was just a port afaik. I'm sure the 777 will be the same. It's very possible for the 777 to get a free upgrade or  at least a discount.

Also the reason its taking so long is that its not easy. 32bit programs use different code than 64bit. So much of the code has to be altered. They're also busy supporting the new 757. Give them time. I'd rather wait and have a well designed addon than have a rushed badly designed one.
