Quelques nouvelles des différents modèles de B737 toujours en cours de développement en accord (ou pas) avec Zibo ; ça ne sera pas pour tout de suite :
(à traduire sur DeepL)
Last update was Sept.3 2021
From the discord server...
First and foremost, I’m happy to announce that we’re in the middle of testing the new tablet, with the first alpha version pushed some few weeks ago in the middle of August. So the light at the end of the tunnel is definitely there, but this is no indication of a release window, things can change. A couple of people discounted the importance of the tablet: it plays a significant role in your flying experience, as the majority of your configuration sits in the tablet (namely, weight and balance, perf calculations, cockpit configuration, etc). We want to build something that is adaptable to other planes, and is foundationally performant.
“Quality of life” features such as Search, METAR and News (which can be toggled off) were implemented to bring better accessibility, all of these and then some, inform the tablet’s design. Rest assured, it’s definitely not “form over function”.
Now for the MAX, FMOD sounds are mostly complete, with some recurring tweaks here and there to capture the characteristics of the LEAP-1B.
The visual team has moved onto active development for the series (which I’ve occasionally mentioned in general chat). We are doubling down in detail and accuracy. The exterior visuals of the -8 is “finalised”, and the -7 and -9 is in the works. The -10 may be put on the back burner while we figure out the gear design and other modifications. Cockpit work has not started as we’re prepare the exterior visuals for MVA (Modular Visual Architecture) implementation. No previews on the MAX for now, but it's definitely shaping up to be a real eye-pleaser. Thank you for your confidence in us!

737-800 Max
Is there a 737-800 Max in development or to download? I am not on Discord so looking there is not an option. Thanks.
