TFDi Design 717 for FSX/P3D - Review

Image
TFDi Design 717 On the night of December 22nd, the TFDi Design 717 was released to the public for a price of 59,99 dollars.  Many people were excited for the release, but did it hold up to their expectations? Let's find out. The "Angry Puppy" The Boeing 717 (or MD-95 as it was originally marketed), is a single aisle, twin engine regional jet designed by McDonnell Douglas.  The first order for the MD-95 was placed by Valujet in 1995, but after the Boeing/McDonnell Douglas merge in 1997, the MD-95 became the 717. The first airframe was delivered in 1999. A total of 156 717's were built, most of which went to AirTran Airways, and subsequently to Delta. The 717 is still in service with Volotea, Qantas Link, Hawaiian Airlines, Turkmenistan Airlines and Delta Air Lines.
