September 1, 20169 yr I just got my monthly e-mail from Laminar Research and saw the following, "Have you seen the series of short videos we're releasing? Make sure to follow us on YouTube, Facebook, or Twitter so you don't miss the next one! We'll also be attending the 2016 Flight Sim Expo at the Royal Air Force Museum in Cosford, England on October 8th. We'll have a big announcement at presentations in the morning and afternoon, so make sure to stop by if you'll be there as well. These are very busy times at Laminar Research--we're all working tirelessly to bring you the best in mobile and desktop flight simulators! The latest update to X-Plane 10 mobile is now out, and 10.50 is getting close to being finalized." I also saw this on the Flight Sim Expo website, "Laminar Research, creator of the X-Plane flight simulator , will be making a major announcement on October 8th at the 2016 Flight Sim Expo at the Royal Air Force Museum in Cosford, England. X-Plane’s flight model, scope, versatility, customizability, and 3rd party add-ons have made it the ultimate flight simulation experience for pilots and serious simulation enthusiasts. Over the years it has always been the policy of Laminar Research to continually improve X-Plane, providing the most realistic flight simulation available, with flight modeling so accurate that has been adopted by numerous commercial aviation organizations. Laminar will continue this tradition with this upcoming major announcement at Cosford. Presentations will be made in both morning and afternoon by Austin Meyer, founder of Laminar Research and creator of X-Plane and by Ben Supnik, head of development for the desktop version of X-Plane.X-Plane - It’s what real pilots fly" Could this be when they announce X-Plane 11? Hopefully, but I guess well know for sure in 5 weeks.
September 1, 20169 yr I would guess XP11.

September 1, 20169 yr Exciting times! Hope it's an announcement for X-Plane 11.

September 1, 20169 yr XP11! José Fco. Ibáñez /// i7 6700k (Delid) @ 4,6 Ghz /// Asrock Z170 OC Formula /// 16GB RAM G.Skill Ripjaws V 3200 /// GTX 1070 Founders Edition 8GB /// LG 27UD58 4K 27' // OCZ Vertex 4 SSD (X-Plane 10) & SAMSUNG 850 EVO SSD (P3D V3) /// Windows 10 Pro x64
September 1, 20169 yr Has to be X-Plane 11. It's too late in the cycle for v10 for it to be anything else, and they've already shown previews. So maybe... Better weather modeling, especially thunderstorms? (the big one for me) Seasonal terrain? Better ATC? (I don't care about this, but I know many do) I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much, since so much of this depends on what Austin thinks is important. But with v10 running so smoothly now, I think Laminar needs to make a splash with some big new features for v11 X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator on Windows 10 i7 6700 4.0 GHz, 32 GB RAM, GTX 1660 ti, 1920x1200 monitor
September 1, 20169 yr XP11 is something I am really looking after... I hope it uninstalls as easily as XP10 :-) hehehe - just kidding !!!! Now, indeed I hope Austin can dedicate enough to the cause and make XP11 get's most of those long time complaints or wishes from XP10 users become addressed.

September 1, 20169 yr Sounds intriguing, but if there's no change in weather/clouds from XP10 then I'll wait for XP12 and stick with P3D for now lol.
September 1, 20169 yr Moderator Thanks for the heads up, I've just come back from the UK, but might actually make another trip next month to see this :-)
September 1, 20169 yr I've just come back from the UK, but might actually make another trip next month to see this *if* you do go ..... please record it the EU ... er I mean England now is kinda far for some us
September 2, 20169 yr I think we will be seeing XP-Xl by December 2016. Alan Twiggys AOPA Member "All Things Aviation"
September 2, 20169 yr Relax guys. X-Plane 10 is just getting started... - Currently giving X-Plane 12.10 a spin on Shadow PC. 10 years with X-Plane now, since 10.20
September 2, 20169 yr X-Pane 11 and VR Support :smile: Me Hopes 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick
September 2, 20169 yr Relax guys. X-Plane 10 is just getting started... Stuff on the ground looks great. Stuff in the sky looks... well, fine for a clear day. I want to see a big nasty thunderstorm anvil cloud rolling in over that airport, danger of windshear from the downwash because X-Plane is actually modeling vertical convection flows inside a CB. I want something I'm afraid to fly into, and need to divert around. We can set up conditions that affect our planes like that now, but it doesn't look like that from a distance, like something we'd want to avoid in low-level VFR flying. That's what I'm hoping we'll get in v11. If it's too much for Laminar to handle on its own, at least rebuild the weather model so it's not just three simple horizontal layers, and a 3rd party can do discrete weather system modeling based on METAR data. Like this: That's the environment we're supposed to be flying in, like the real pilots do. And right now, X-Plane (and all other sims) do a terrible job of modeling it.

September 2, 20169 yr Doubt it's XP11. XP10 has a long way to go. We're not even at 10.50 yet!! Ara Mahs, Private Pilot
September 2, 20169 yr There have been lots of cryptic videos lately... Xp 11 would be awesome. <p>Dassault Falcon, Lear, Embraer and Challenger and Cessna Mechanic.Broadcasting live from former Soviet Missile Silo.Rhys Legge
