February 15, 201214 yr Hello folks. I did a search re the MU-2. Most of what I have found, was dating around 2002. I have the Premiere Designs MU-2's. Love the models, not too happy with the cockpit though. Gonna try and edit it somewhat, don't really know what i'm doing though.I found this panel on this site: http://www.fassapi.net/Projets.htm unfortunately, he's waiting for permission from someone to use the photo I think. Looks great, think it would go well with the PAD MU-2's.I pretty much feel the FSD MU-2 is DOA; shame I think it would have been awesome, as well as the jetstar. Oh well.Based on my correspondence with Realair folks, they feel the MU-2 wouldn't be that popular; but man, could they do an awesome one! Just a tough economy right now, so they have to keep things mainstream.Perhaps carenado will look into one someday. So, does anyone have any insider knowledge of this beautiful aircraft being developed fro FSX..with all the bells and whistles.The X-plane MU-2 is awesome, perhaps when version 1.5 is released; I'll reconsider X-plane. I wish I had the talent that some of oyu have in designing stuff, would try myself. Most of my attempts have been abject failures.I guess I'm posting this to inquire, and perhaps if enough folks show an interest in theis beautiful plane; Realaire or somebody on the FSX side may develope her.The real one was an absolute blast to fly! What a speedster.Thanks for allowing me to express my thoughts.Have Fun.David
February 15, 201214 yr WFIW, X=Plane has an excellent MU-2 as payware. One of GVA's (see below) pilots flies it. Dan George (woodhick)Check out Greenbrier Aero Club, the VA for and about the GA pilot.

One of GVA's (see below) pilots flies it.Hi Dan, Yes, as mentioned above; I agree that is one of the best looking and feature packed MU-2's out there. When version 1.5 gets released; I'll probably purchase X-plane..jsut for the MU-2.I was also just trying to gage interest on the plane for FSX. Well, doesn't look like a future for this plane in FSX right now.Best,David
February 16, 201214 yr I seem to remember that FSD International was developing one a few years back, but it got tabled for some reason that I cannot remember. A quick trip to their website provides no help I'm afraid, though they are set to release a nice payware update of the default GPS:http://www.fsd-international.comCheers, PowerSpec G426 PC running Windows 11 Pro 64-bit OS, Intel Core i7 11700K @ 3.60GHz 30 °C, 4089MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 , ASUS TUF Z590-Plus Gaming motherboard, Samsung 870 EVO 2TB SSD, Samsung 750 EVO 500GB SSD, Acer Predator X34 34" curved monitor (external view), RealSim Gear G-1000 avionics suite, RealSim Gear GNS 450, Slavix Stay Level Custom Metal Panel, Honeycomb Alpha Yoke, Redbird Alloy THI, Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals.
