Surprised no one has mentioned this yet!

I know SWS also mentioned they were working on two versions a while ago...

They only count up to local noon of the sender. Posted 30 mins ago makes it legit. If not the sender is the “fool”. No offence intended. 😉

It's not an April fool's joke confirmed by Carenado hehe - but I laugh at their timely posting

I already asked on their FB page for TDS integration - hope others do the same.  I would guess it's the classic PC12 avionics found in their P3D and XP11 versions.

can't wait to sit in the cookpit at dawn in VR with light rain. The undisputed masters of aircraft visuals have done it again, is this Memorex or Carenado? unbelievable quality. how wouldn't bet this is a photograph?

[CFIJose 5,485]

The visuals are astounding.

Hi,

Thank you for the heads-up. Looking quite impressive.

Not to derail this topic; does anyone know if there is a Pilatus PC-24 in the works?

Happy Fool's Friday all!

Poor PC-12 being addressed by Carenado. Hopefully some other developer will make it justice someday.

That didn't take long.

Did anyone like the P3D version back in the day?

Carenado is doing better here in MSFS.  I admit they weren't great in P3D - but the prices are generally lower than P3D, the aircraft look a lot better and fly/sound better.

There is another dev who has started on the work afaik, Sim Works Studios

Why don't you come over here to MSFS and fly the sunny skies!

I don't know. Their airplanes are even prettier, but so are the default MSFS airplanes. And they only sell in market place, with file encryption. I must admit, I am not very much interested in their products anymore under these circumstances. I definitely bought more Carenado airplanes for P3D.
