Honestly, I think it's unfair that MSFS users have to pay the same amount for the same addon as P3D users. No offense, but Prepar3D is a dying platform, losing users every day and it's only going to get worse. In extreme contrast, MSFS, already the most popular simulator, has been maturing nicely and thanks to recent addon releases, has been gaining even more popularity.
The prices of these high quality airliners for MSFS reveals that the strategy that has been consolidated is that, thanks to the popularity of MSFS, it's possible to charge a lower price, sell to a larger audience and thus obtain the same or even a higher profit than selling at a higher price to a smaller, select audience. Even the current most expensive addon for MSFS (Leonardo Fly the Maddog) costs $20 less than the P3D version.
Obviously, you've been in the business for years and know more about economics than I do, so take this more as a suggestion. Thanks to the dialogue, Just Flight has reduced the price of Bae 146 by $15, so I hope that MSFS community can get you a price that is fair for both you and the community. It would be embarrassing to release the most expensive airliner to MSFS and maybe in the end, it would be of lower quality and realism than one that costs $30-$45 less.
