Sounds like they're sending it to the marketplace now.  Of course with Asobo taking a break for the holidays we may not see it for a while.

How do you know that?

Marketplace means encrypted files and terrible update times, no thanks.

While I agree with you - I was just posting that as something I read on their facebook page.

@ryanbatcund Great, keep us updated. A lot of interest on my part.

@Ixoye Yes, Carenado products are all in game purchases and that is a drag.

I know that Carenado products can come with a lot of eye-candy that overshadows substance, but the C337 has been a favourite of mine since first introduced into Flight Simulator. I could be easily tempted despite the history with Carenado.

It looks really good, too bad they only sell on the Marketplace, otherwise I would probably have bought it.

It's good that it is on Marketplace, because my friend with an XBox can also fly it with me now too. It's bad that it's not also sold separately in a more direct manner for PC users because of how long the Marketplace takes to update

So what's the word on this bird?  Looks good but how's she fly?  How are the instruments and sounds?

I don’t think it’s available yet, unless it was released in the last few hours

Sigh....why do they have to make it look so good? 😞 (will try to stick to my guns swear off Carenado until they streamline the update process....having my favorite Mooney in the hanger so long with the last debacle was the last straw for me.)   Would hate for this one to turn into another Buy-n-ground plane after a few flights when a new MSFS update breaks it. 🤔

I had her for P3D and enjoyed her....too bad prior P3D customers don't get a discount...that would go a long way in mending fences. 😉 

Not buying anything from the Marketplace until they stop effing up the simulator every other update.

I totally hear both of you.  Devs are getting sick of it too. I saw a funny pic floating around called Microsoft Update Simulator hehe.  

They really need to revamp the marketplace.  And they need to have it available outside of the sim.  And they need receipts for purchases!

I refuse to buy anything from Marketplace again. They have ripped me off once to often. 

No idea when this thing is coming. It looked ready 3 weeks ago.  Hopefully this helps Carenado slow down and fix bugs before release.

 

Maybe they were waiting for today’s patch to be released?
