Delta began revenue service today with the inaugural flight from ATL to EWR. The 717 will be flying EWR runs until more routes are added next month. I only Wish there was a good 717 model out there for fs. Happy Flying!

Kaylan, seems like TFDI, of whom I've never heard of is in mid-development of a "high quality" 717 model. I ecstatic to see what comes out of it, until pmdg finally makes a 717. lol

We probably should not hold our breath on PMDG building a 717, unfortunately!

Looking on their Facebook page, seems like they are really taking this aircraft seriously!
V/C sneak-peek they gave looks amazing, should be releasing more information within the week..

HJG has the model and livery but no V/c or panel. They do have a panel for it on the website, but its basically a hodgepodge of "gauges"

If anyone is still interested in the information, TFDI released new photos of the un textured VC for their 717.
Looks awesome!

My only quarrel is that, I fly primarily in 2D cockpits, and TFDI has "No plans to develop" a full 2D cockpit..
Disappointing for me.. lol
