First of all, the Xbox Series X|S version of the simulator is now available for pre-download ahead of its July 27 release.

The download size is just over 97 GB.

Next, we get a new video showing the external animations of the de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter by Aerosoft, on top of screenshots of the para jumping version and the untextured interior of the cargo variant.

It’s worth mentioning that the Twin Otter has already been confirmed for the Xbox Series X|S version of the simulator.

Next is a look at Just Flight‘s Fokker F28 Fellowship, showing a few liveries. You can enjoy them below alongside a short development update.

“Here are some new screenshots showing additional liveries on the F-28-2000 and F-28-4000 variants.

The majority of the exterior texture work is now complete and work moves to internal visuals and coding of the extensive systems. So there’s still some way to go in terms of the development process on this one but hopefully these latest shots will give a good indication of the level of quality you’ll be looking at for this one. More development updates to follow.”

On top of that, Just Flight also released the PA-28-161 Warrior II. It’s now available on the developer’s own shop for €37.95.

Mofre screenshots come from Pyreegue, which announced that Edinburgh Airport (EGPH) in Scotland will be released this week.

Last, but certainly not least, MK Studios released Ponta Delgada João Paulo II Airport (LPPD) in the Azores.

It’s currently available on Orbx Direct for $9.91 and below you can check out screenshots aplenty and an official features list.
