This a tough crowd, I flew the triple as a captain for 12 years and it really brings me back to my old office , I can almost smell it! Great job from PMDG and I’m sure the model will keep getting better with time. Nice to finally see a real B777 in MSFS! Thanks for the preview video
Ive been patiently waiting for your informative review mate & you have not disappointed! Super excited to see your upcoming streams this week & I cannot wait to purchase this on Tuesday! 🙂
Majority of people complianing about the sounds have never heard what its like in the cockpitt of a 777 in real life. The most we can comment on is the sounds from inside the cabin, which will vary depending on whether you are in front of the engines, over the wings, behind the wings or towards rear of the aircraft.
How can I setup my views within the passenger cabin (example wing views) zoom inside the cabin when the flight deck door is unlocked and do a walk around of the exterior (outside)?
A peeve of mine is that people disconnect the AT on the MCP. If you do this then it disables the fly-by-wire AT protections. You should disconnect the AT using the buttons on the throttle levers.
Wow, at the moment, the 777-300 ER is available on the PMDG Website for almost the price of a RL 777-300ER. The price is for SALE for 325 Mio minus 1 cent. The RL list price is around 375 Mio.
I honestly cannot wait to get this into my hangar, but the engine sounds when in the wingview sounds......off, particularly when the flaps are extended after start up. Never heard a 777-300ER during my 4-5 times on-board in that exact same spot sound anything like that. But I am sure over-time it'll improve.
@personagoldy6003 Well, at least it's better than captain scams shit plane. I wouldn't be surprised if a patch comes out for sounds before it's released.
Hey mathijs i know the community would make liveries for this bird but i saw qatar and Emiratis liveries and really loved pmdg’s quality inside the cabin and out, unfortunately you confirmed kuwait airways in the previous livery list but i dont see it in the new one can you kindly at least re add kuwait airways to the base 77W so we can enjoy it day 1 because i love the pmdg quality and id be super happy since my birthday is close, thanks for the hard work on the plane that will change the sim for ever.

Sounds are very subjective. I'm blessed with a powerful computer with a very good sound card so in my room it sounded pretty good based on 3yrs of being crew on 777s, and having flown on plenty for holidays so overall very impressed generally and I'm happy with it as it is
Yes, the problem is that they seem to have great samples of the engines running but they can't smoothly phase between a ground idle to toga without getting weird phasing when the sound engine goes from one state to another. But the thing that strikes me is the low ventilation sound, when I flew a lot of long distance in the 777 I would get really tired from the loud ventilation and airframe hiss.
People forget this is a preview version. I think it will be updated and tweaked before release at least, hopefully its tweaked for what it needs to be tweaked for but personally I don't want me ear drums blown to pieces.
@@BritishAvgeek Sounds are "very subjective" when the line of criticism is small and detailed, this is not the case, sounds are poor, simple and not at all like a GE90, more like a vaccum cleaner
@@BritishAvgeek When you meet Boris, any half-assed product becomes intolerable in a product so good in important areas such as textures and systems, but there is no immersion, it's like flying a plane without engines
Is there a way to let the plane's airspeed to go beyond 340 knots while at cruising altitude? Like setting it on the autopilot control section in the middle some sort
@@DoneRegularly it's a bit more bassy on my actual computer but yeah having had a lot of external and internal exposure to the 777 GE90s and think it's quite close. Couple of small tweaks for flap extension noise where the sound repeats once through flap 15 with continuous deployment but that's probably because it's unlikely you'd use anything over F15 anyway for takeoff except the odd occasion
Can I just ask which will the best version of the 777 from PMDG to get as I bought the 737 700 only to then regret it given how much more well support the 800 version turned out to be ( esp liveries) thx
This is the most sold version but it's something only you can decide for yourself - if you are a freighter pilot then you're better off waiting for the 777-200F
Do you know if the PMDG 777 is compatible with the honeycombs knobs? So you can control the heading, speed and altitude with them instead of the mouse?
Unlikely - it needs to be put onto the marketplace (which can take around one month, sometimes longer, sometimes quicker)... Tbh if you have PC you're much much much better off buying directly from PMDG. You'll get any updates immediately and will be able to access all the included liveries for free plus enjoy easy installation of all the freeware liveries that will follow

Excellent bird 🐦 all round....but the sound is not of a GE90. Flight Factor 777 have the Ge90 sound 💯 %. I sure hope this gets fixed b4 we run our credit card on 25th
There's a time stamp specifically for engine start earlier in the PMDG livery - didn't want to show that twice as it would add another 5 minutes to the video
... Does it? 😂 Not sure which type of inference to take from your comment. I joined because a) I got paid to fly the world and b) I thought it would get the door open for pilot training - it didn't 😂
I take it the 300 is the first in the 777 line, like all thier 737 series... i waited for the 737-900, took ages lol I only want 1x 777. So i guess il be waiting ages for a big one again lol
They had more bass on my speaker system at home - probably quite hard to get it right in a video but still, personally I thought it was quite juicy, similarly I appreciate others may think differently
I’ve read about people complaining about the engine sounds. I’m no 777 pilot but I’ve been a passenger on them enough times onboard Emirates and the like and these sound just fine in my opinion!
just another modern ariliner add to tons of them already out there and coming soon, no classic boeing are developing, who would have time interested enough to fly a long haul in sim
Lol, You're comparing it to a pre recorded video with tons of compression from YT. He could've reduce sounds sound volumes as well. You should know better.
Heh, trash sounds, filled with visual bugs, lacks efb funcionality, lacks system depth and the checklists are unrealistic, it was rushed there is no doubt. its insane how much Flight Factor has won the 777 war even though both haven't been released yet.
@@Londresorsomething yeah talk about Blackbox711 (real Boeing widebody captain), how was actually telling the truth about the PMDG and was debunking it and showing all of the things that were rushed and poor quality in his stream, its a youtuber that doesn't glaze like all of planes for views. And how would the 777 pilots that have only tried msfs and think its the best they can get have any input for a plane that hasn't even been released yet? 🤣Even how the trim is super screwed up, the GE90 roar isn't there, sounds are bad. Its amazing how people see right through this stuff and think its so amazing and that they need to get it. the 777 from PMDG for P3d was so much better.

Cool! That’s awesome man! ❤😊
Thanks for your thoughts! Always great to hear from a long serving captain of the real thing too - really important feedback 🙂
Ive been patiently waiting for your informative review mate & you have not disappointed! Super excited to see your upcoming streams this week & I cannot wait to purchase this on Tuesday! 🙂
Been flying the PMDG 777 since the good old days of FSX! Really excited to take this beauty up in MSFS!!! Excellent video!
Have fun!
@@BritishAvgeek Thank you sir!
Excellent preview Luke, its a must buy 👍
a monumental release for the sim absolutely
Thank you m8 for the very nice preview and sound on my bose speakers sound perfekt to my ears ;-) so now I have to wait 2 days to get this amazing
Can't wait for the tutorial series on this beast! Fantastic video!
I'll get to work on it asap
@@BritishAvgeek Love to hear it 😁
Awesome balanced review mate. Waited all weekend for it and well worth the wait. Day 1 purchase for me 👍🏽
Thanks for sharing, a definite 1st day purchase for me
Finally a video of the PMDG 777 in 4k.
It caught me while I was away in Wales on a break, which we came home from a day early 👀😂 allowed me to get this done yesterday for everyone!
Can t wait any longer. 2 days feels like 2 years😂
Great Stream as usual very impressive
Much appreciated
Being a cookie monster, "grab a biscuit" puts a smile on my face every time. Great video. Thanks.
Awsome preview! Can't wait to see more.
I can open de cockpit door but I can not go into the passengers cabin.
Best msfs RUclipsr there is 😃
Thank you for this informative video, kudos to you for the rejected take-off sequence. Youre the first to actually show this.
Absolutely day 1 buy. Amazing preview.

The engine sound from the cockpit it's not like the real one except engine start sequence
That engine wobble just looks off to me seems to stutter back and fourth instead of sway like on the real aircraft.
Amazing video bro
Thanks 🔥
On the Hoppies, a reminder that we do not use Oceanic clearance requests on the network (specifically for North Atlantic)
*Looks at checklist*
>Flaps 15
"Flaps are set to 15."
*Looks at EICAS*
>Flaps 20
Good thing you caught it during taxi 😅
😂😂 yep - I've got to always make one big cock up during every recording 😂😂
Yeah first big event is - PMDG 77W release , 2nd Big release - FBW A380 , 3rd Would be - Inibuilds _A350
How can I setup my views within the passenger cabin (example wing views) zoom inside the cabin when the flight deck door is unlocked and do a walk around of the exterior (outside)?
A peeve of mine is that people disconnect the AT on the MCP. If you do this then it disables the fly-by-wire AT protections. You should disconnect the AT using the buttons on the throttle levers.
I didn't have them bound and I wanted to use the throttles manually regardless for the approach hence the reason

And now it's been released it's price at $77.73usd!
Makes me wish Fenix would release an A330. That would be so awesome
Being able to control equipment from the EFB is awesome. I hated the old way of doing it.
I honestly cannot wait to get this into my hangar, but the engine sounds when in the wingview sounds......off, particularly when the flaps are extended after start up. Never heard a 777-300ER during my 4-5 times on-board in that exact same spot sound anything like that. But I am sure over-time it'll improve.
This is what I needed to get back into flying myself instead of just watching content lol
I'm getting this just for the pen.....I hope my 737's won't feel a lost love.
there is a huge complain about sounds in PMDG forum. They know it. About the cabin it's more based on Air France I think
The sounds are really a dissapointement. Will hold off my purchase for now.

That start piece was the drezwiecki design KPAE scenery with the Boeing factory
@@BritishAvgeek yeh I have that scenery but how did u get it to tow u
@@stoogeuk8088It’s part of the scenery. The aircraft being towed isn’t PMDG
@@Ben123 ah ok that fine ty for clarifying :D
Thanks for the review. Are you able to upload your custom views config for us? Would be highly appreciated.
i'll try sort something out yes
@@BritishAvgeek Thanks!
Cant wait for the osprey livery yeeeesssss
Not got this yet but will at some stage
Is there a way to let the plane's airspeed to go beyond 340 knots while at cruising altitude? Like setting it on the autopilot control section in the middle some sort
That depends on your altitude and weight whether it'll allow you to fly at that speed. You can manually set a speed using the speed selector of course
We have a special time compression feature that is rather clever. London - New York in 2 hours is very possible.
@@BritishAvgeek u mean the speed selector on the autopilot panel?
Default weather?
Hi! yes, no weather addons - just default MSFS weather :)
I’m around the GE90s and listening to this I automatically reach around my neck for ear plugs but I’m home💀
😂
So it’s accurate?
@@DoneRegularly very similar. But his sound device altered what I’m used to.

Can I just ask which will the best version of the 777 from PMDG to get as I bought the 737 700 only to then regret it given how much more well support the 800 version turned out to be ( esp liveries) thx
This one is the best 777, the 777-300er. Surprisingly they started with the best one first. But yes this is the most flown one by big airlines.
This is the most sold version but it's something only you can decide for yourself - if you are a freighter pilot then you're better off waiting for the 777-200F
Thanks guys this sounds ideal then.
Is it coming out today? There is no price yet 😢
It's out now - $77.73usd
Will MSFS, with the addition of more study level aircraft ever be the ultimate flight simulator? Or is it already at that status?
There's even more epic stuff coming soon too - MSFS is leaps and bounds ahead imo
@@BritishAvgeek thanks for the reply bro. Much love to you from the USA. Keep up the good content.
Wait ... there is no LATAM livery? No stormtrooper cockpit section? 😢
Just imagine when the livery freeware painters get their hands on it 😂
@@BritishAvgeek :D
wow this might be my finale thing to end my xplane-11 era. The only reason i still use xplane 11 is of the flight factor 777.
The FF777 has had very good reviews though I don't have xplane so have never tried it
@@BritishAvgeek I would compare it to pmdg 737, though with "x-plane" graphics. But all of the mecahnics and stuff is there :)
As much as I dislike days of showcases of a hyped plane like this… this really was the best and I got to see stuff I was curious about.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 😎
Do you know if the PMDG 777 is compatible with the honeycombs knobs? So you can control the heading, speed and altitude with them instead of the mouse?
I would guess so as the 737 works with it
If I get chance today I'll try to check
Will the plane release on market place on the release day or does it have a process to go through before being placed on the market place
Unlikely - it needs to be put onto the marketplace (which can take around one month, sometimes longer, sometimes quicker)... Tbh if you have PC you're much much much better off buying directly from PMDG. You'll get any updates immediately and will be able to access all the included liveries for free plus enjoy easy installation of all the freeware liveries that will follow
I read that the standard MSFS weather radar was simulated. Does it really work? In these weather conditions, I would assume an indication on the ND.
The standard MSFS wx picks up rain not cloud from memory
@@BritishAvgeek okay thank you.
Didn’t know they used Randazzo’s hoover to capture the engine sounds
Sounds are very subjective. I'm blessed with a powerful computer with a very good sound card so in my room it sounded pretty good based on 3yrs of being crew on 777s, and having flown on plenty for holidays so overall very impressed generally and I'm happy with it as it is

No engine start? Just flap setting and the engines was on.

Ahh Sorry. Didnt see that. Thanks for the video 👍🤌
@@Morst434 no worries at all :) I recorded the first bit, and engine start for the flight but thought in editing I'd trim it out to save a few minutes
HOw do you move inside the cabin?
Drone camera
did every youtube streamer get the pmdg 777?
I don't believe so no - there's a nice diverse selection of us - big, medium and small channels though
Is the PMDG 777 Coming up to Xbox ?
Is PMDG back on top now like back in the glory days of FSX and Prepar3D
Cabin crew, that explains a lot.
... Does it? 😂 Not sure which type of inference to take from your comment. I joined because a) I got paid to fly the world and b) I thought it would get the door open for pilot training - it didn't 😂
@@BritishAvgeek Just saying you need to do it to fulfill your need to fly.
I take it the 300 is the first in the 777 line, like all thier 737 series... i waited for the 737-900, took ages lol
I only want 1x 777. So i guess il be waiting ages for a big one again lol
Yeah - the -300ER is actually the biggest and in real life the most sold version of the aircraft too
sounds arent great..may have to add the TSS 777 sound pack to my 777
What’s the price of this aircraft?
currently that is not known
what tool did you use for the landing rate?
it's the landing rate widget for parallel 42s Flow Pro product
Now you have to make a new intro including the 777
Absolutely - once the livery is done I'll get that sorted 😂
I think the engine sounds need to have a deeper bass sound and some how make the spool up deeper and more manly lol.
They had more bass on my speaker system at home - probably quite hard to get it right in a video but still, personally I thought it was quite juicy, similarly I appreciate others may think differently
@@BritishAvgeek It sounds great to be honest they just need to fix the high pitch spool up sound if that makes since.
PC specs??
Engine sounds more like a leap-1a than a Ge90
Lol no they don't.
I’ve read about people complaining about the engine sounds. I’m no 777 pilot but I’ve been a passenger on them enough times onboard Emirates and the like and these sound just fine in my opinion!
Ge90-115b spool up sound is not like the real one. WTF with a big payware like that!
I agree but hopefully pmdg can fix it
Very nice aircraft but I’m not a fan of the engine wiggle
just another modern ariliner add to tons of them already out there and coming soon, no classic boeing are developing, who would have time interested enough to fly a long haul in sim
i’m australian, so most international destinations begin at about 8 hours and it only goes up from there. i cannot wait for the 777.
they have a time acceleration feature within the 777 so you can fly transatlantic for example, but in a fraction of the time if you wish
Sounds like a toyota hybrid
Excellent video, Luke. How do you travel around the cabin, dear sir ?
I've got Translate View keybinds set up to allow me to walk about
4 years development to have the best engines in the world (ge90's) sounding like a hairdryer 😂🙄
I mean, if you watch real-life cockpit videos, that's what they sound like from the cockpit. The wing view sounds might be what you're after
FSX Sounds 😮💨
I can’t believe this .. I’ve been comparing it to real life take off sounds … it’s very weak
3 years of development to make an awful mcp flat buttons 😂
Lol, You're comparing it to a pre recorded video with tons of compression from YT. He could've reduce sounds sound volumes as well. You should know better.
Engine sounds are frankly disappointing
Give it time, this is a pre-release after all, dont forget that. They might change it before it comes out or in an update.
Those flaps sound horrid
3 years of development to make an awful mcp flat buttons 😂
Not anything against PMDG, but I hate the cockpit colors on this aircraft. I realize its correct for the plane, but the brown is terrible
Luckily not every man like the same woman!
