We get to see screenshots of the CRJ 550 in United Express livery, alongside another at night with the Lufthansa Regional livery. The package will include several different real-world liveries and a list will be shared soon.

Another screenshot portrays an interesting detail in the form of the setting sun reflecting on the reflector of the wingtip light.

Last, but not least, we take a look at the EFB (Electronic Flight Bag) including the checklists, the selection screen for aircraft states, the maintenance menu, the performance menu, and the options menu.

This kind of option lineup is on a completely different planet compared to what is included in default aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator. It’s not surprising that even Microsoft and Asobo are eagerly waiting for the CRJ’s completion, considering that it will serve as a primer for more similar productions and the introduction of more and more advanced third-party aircraft.

At the moment, a release date and pricing have not been announced, but Aerosoft hopes to launch before the end of the year.

Speaking of Microsoft Flight Simulator in general, during a livestreamed event earlier this week, the developers shared a lot of details about the future of the sim, including the next world update focusing on the United Kingdom.
