Thanks for posting this. I could not find sight of a change log for the life of me.

Nice... No time to test the update yet but there where several more points on my list not mentioned in this update yet. But progress is nice... The author is quite active on the "other" forum too and listening to feedback.

Cheers T

 

Still a nice plane, been flying it quite a bit and very happy to finally be able to hide the yoke although it appears it was the case prior to the patch as well based on these notes but I certainly hadn't found it.  Would love to see the 750 as an option in this one at some stage.

There was a switch by the yoke to hide it. 😀

The BNI is a nice plane to fly, a good addition to the sim.

You can already.   This mod adds it to loads of planes including the Islander

 

Oh nice, I hadn't spotted the update to this mod as I'm using it for the 172 already, thanks for the heads up.  So much stuff on flightsim.to it's sometimes hard to keep up with the updates.

I agree. The sim is taking off and growing so strongly now that it is hard to keep up with the new add-ons, tweaks, and extra content coming out every day.

The only way for me to keep up with the news is by reading the Avsim forum every day.  :biggrin:

Regarding the BN-2, there are some really nice fixes in the update.  My preference would now be to have higher resolution textures for the panel and the prop spinners.  It is already a very good aircraft and flies great.

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

True, visually it's a hard to argue that it's a bit last gen in its visuals, not enough to take away from its enjoyment and it's not bad either but it would certainly be well served by some extra fidelity on that front, as fun as it is to fly it doesn't have the wow factor in the cockpit it deserves to give it that final bit of immersion to turn it into a plane I want to fly all the time.  Hopefully we'll see some more updates going forward.

Is it me or is it a bit overpowered now since the update?

Another little update has just been put out.  Not sure of the fixes yet.

@sd_flyer They say they don't know how to feather the props properly yet.  They know others have done it, but they are investigating how.

Some cockpit sounds would be nice.
