Hoping we see a decent mod (GotRange? 😅) Longitude after the encryption is dropped. 

Yeah I think with some more working systems, the G3000 refresh - the Longitude could be a contender for quality bizjet.  Wish the HUD could be made operational too.

I already saw on the WT discord progress pics of full vnav.

Why?

Due to the nature of complex avionics developers think the time required wouldn't be worth the sales they'd receive.  That may not be true anymore for MSFS.

I'd love to see a in depth PC24 but it's Iris, so I'm doubtful.  Maybe they will pull out all the stops for this version though.

I asked the question on their Facebook and response was along the lines of "depends on Honeywell".

 

Think that's a "No" to full avionics, but we can live in hope.

we need Aerobask to see the light and bring their Falcon over

sadly there is no indication of a release date even for xplane yet

Another small jet. We need a Global Express or something in that vain.  Outside of PMDG these developers don't get it.

I agree. Boring.

Flysimware had a very nice Falcon 50 for p3d. The textures were godawful, at least at first, but I think they were working on that when I switched over to MSFS. The rest of the jet was excellent. I'm still hopeful now that they're done with the Widgeon and the 414 they'll turn to making Falcons again. Maybe they'll even give us a 7x or 8x?

 

The Falcon 50, the Learjet 35A, and Carenado's Phenoms is why I still use P3D.

My wish for bizjets are very modest. I would happily pay again for a study-level version of Longitude with HUD, VNAV, accessible cabin with the usual features such as opening doors and windows, additional working buttons and fixes, and last but not least a detailed manual would make a payware Longitude an instabuy for me.

Iris stated in the initial announcement they expect it to be released in 2023. 

I haven't seen any interior screen shots. I'm also really interested in the cockpit and avionics.

Yes....desperately.  Little tiny slow jets...boring!  (actually the CJ and HDJT are pretty fun)

Need Falcon 2000S, FA8X, Global (have a basic freeware one -it's a start), Gulfstream (yeah I know lol), etc etc.

No dev wants to touch a newer glass jet with vnav/lnav grrrr

Still dying to see a Falcon 900-EX

Sadly, as far as I know, Aerobask is one developer stuck on XPLANE models. Their 8X will not be released till XP12 is out. XPlane is still on my computer and the Aerobask Falcon is the only reason the XPLANE icon still exists on my desktop. I put together an intro part for a video on the Aerobask Falcon over 2 years ago that sadly may never see the light of day.

I have a feeling Carenado are working on their entire bizjet catalogue to release for MSFS.

I’d definitely buy the 390 Premier, Hawker 850,  XL560 and Phenom 100 again for MSFS.

I'm sure it will - I think they mentioned it being xp12 only.  I left their beta team about 4 months ago or so (I've pretty much left all beta teams due to time issues).  Once in a while they showed a preview to us testers - the main developer is very talented I think but they are making it extremely in depth so it'll just take time.  Well, that and probably feature creep hehe.

I'll be buying XP12 because I think it's a good sim.

Always great to dream what may come to Flight Simulator!

I get so excited when I see videos like this

..... and perhaps even this

 

Bombardier have managed to build .. ..
