I beta tested some kids once, but never pulled the trigger 🙂 Well, as far as the small jets are concerned it sounds like another year or two of waiting. That Pilatus looks sooo nice! At this rate, at age 57, I hate to think that I likely won't have too many aircraft choices before I'm 60...Ugh! Maybe I'll just take up VR so I won't care about my aircraft shortage.

Everybody and their brother has asked for a long range bizjet for EVER! I guess devs think they wouldn't sell. Yeah, I know, and that is just "weird". I know Gulfstreams have been avoided because of the whole rights thing, but as for the others (Challenger, Longitude, Citation Sovereign, etc.) you would think someone would release one, one of these years. Pent up demand etc. etc. The Flysimware Falcon 50 is a good one but it's only one and doesn't exist for MSFS. I keep thinking the PC-24 should have bigger tires, but its tires look like those of any other bizjet. I hope they know what they're doing certifying that to land on unprepared strips.

January 14, 20224 yr Eaglesoft finalllllly had released their 32bit (yes 32bit) version of the C56X for p3d. It honestly looked very well done and very systems deep. But I think we were all shocked it didn't support p3d v4 (or 5). I'd wager a guess that devs avoid the big jets cause they have a lot of glass (avionics) that would have to be custom coded. Smaller jets can be done with a mix of analogue and then in p3d we had the lovely rxp GTN stuff - which made almost any aircraft a lot better hehe. (Speaking of that there is the TDS GTN Xi for MSFS just Google it). I believe the recently released challenger in xp11 took 3+ years to make. I badly want to take a look but I'm not really invested in xp11. I will be watching to see how it looks in xp12 though.
