Today third-party developers released new content for Microsoft Flight Simulator, while more is coming very soon.
Aeroplane Heaven posted an extensive video and plenty of screenshots of the Lockheed Electra 10-A, which was revealed yesterday.
We also get an official features list on the official product page, which you can check out below. Incidentally, while the aircraft should be coming soon, it’s not available yet. We’ll update this article if it releases today.
Update: The aircraft has indeed been released.
- Beautifully crafted exterior and interior models built from years of research and using factory drawings and plans.
- Fully detailed authentic cockpit with many unique animations and functions.
- ‘Modern’ avionics suite available with a switch-out for those that like a modern approach to their swimming!
- Dont believe in Modern avionics? We have added a sperry Autopilot ( as close to possible ) for the long trips.
- Special effects include engine exhaust.
- Opening door with a 3d passenger cabin.
- The sound set uses legacy files.
Although these sounds are authentic P&W engine sounds, we MAY be upgrading to a WWise soundpack at a later date. - Highly accurate flight dynamics and performance specifications ensure an authentic flight.
Next, we learn from FlyingIron Simulations that the The P-38L Lightning will be released tomorrow (September 30) at 12PM AEST.
Last, but not least, Batumi International Airport (UGSB) in Georgia has been released by Amsim.
It’s currently available on Simmarket for $14 plus applicable VAT. You can find plenty of screenshots below.
Recently, we published our massive interview with head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann, focusing on the Xbox version and short and long-term plans for the sim (on both platforms).
