I believe there's new youtube video from Q8 Pilot discussing any progress on the IXEG, enjoy.

Are you talking about the video: "IXEG 737 - Grounded Forever or Ready for Takeoff?" or is there something more recent?

Once Laminar Research releases its new documentation for users and devs, I believe you can expect renewed activity on the IXEG.

Hi - I'm curious, is that comment based on anything in particular? Or is it an assumption?

The comment is based on the time I've spent reading through and participating in the IXEG forums, over the years. It's more than an assumption, but not worth finding the exact references to support the comment.

I see, fair enough. I'm really rooting for IXEG 737 Classic here but there hasn't been much progress or hint of progress in a while. I hope your assumption is right.

In a nut shell. Project was nearly dropped completely. Some developers allowed continuation of project just with less people. Developer all spent time helping laminar. With less people its getting a complete FMS update to use XP nav data and fix nagging nav issues, its also getting a complete sound update to FMOD. Wont happen in a hurry with less people.

Yes I read a lot
