Yep that's true, your're right. Still I don't think the C in CU1 is for Cologne... CU1 also seems to imply they're planning more CUs in the future, and this doesn't really make sense to me as "Cologne Update 2, 3, etc", even with gamescom being held annually.

City Update maybe?

Or maybe continent as someone suggested. Not as focused as world updates but a smattering of stuff over a bigger area.

Please, London! They did admit a while ago that it needed attention. 

 9950X3D - X870E Aorus Master- TUF 5090 OC - 64GB DDR5 - 1500W HXi - Titan 360 RX LCD - 9100 Pro x 2  - LG 45GX950A - HOTAS Warthog with Ava Base

It's the Chicken Update, the Colonel's fast food eateries have become a Partner so they'll be placed in real world locations for us to visit.

Pico Neo3 Link VR - Windows 11 64bit, Gigabyte Z590 Aorus Elite Mobo, i7-10700KF CPU, Gigabyte RX 9070 XT OC 16gb (AMD GPU), 32gig Corsair 3600mhz RAM, SSD x2 + M.2 SSD 1tb x1

Saitek X45 HOTAS - Saitek Pro Rudder Pedals - Logitech Flight Yoke - Homemade 3 Button & 8-directional Joystick Box, SNES Controller (used as a Button Box - Additional USB Numpad (used as a Button Box)

I would expect that there wouldn't be an "Africa" update as such, perhaps a Southern, Central and Northern. But maybe more realistically than that, certain countries. Remembering that Africa is the second biggest continent on the planet. All other world updates have been countries, quite often small countries in Europe. 

I would love to see South Africa get some love, I spent a lot of time flying over there and its beautiful (the shooting, robbery and murdering aside ). SA also has a very long and rich aviation history.

Cape Town isn't to bad with ORBX Cape Town City added on, just would be nice to see the rest of the country given an upgrade. There are definitely some better satellite images of JHB than what is currently in the sim. 

Maybe next year?

cloud update?

i9-11900K, RTX 4090, 32 GB ram, Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo, TCA Airbus sidestick and quadrant, Reverb G2

Whatever CU1 means, I believe it has a matching "local legend".  If it means City Update, any corresponding aircraft guesses?

They said the CU1 is going to be announced at gamescom, which will be held in Cologne, Germany.

Logical conclusion: CU1 = Cologne Update 1 😉

Ok, just kidding, your guess is as good as mine - or probably even better 😅

Probably not, since the city’s name in German is Köln🙂

Its all for fun and I hope this is what it means 😃

Jorg said in an earlier interview that they wanted the sim to look better below 500ft. I hope this is somehow linked to Blackshark.ai and the first step to improve the melted world.

... nice one.  I'm going to switch my vote from Continent Update to City Update.  That seems like a very sensible guess and like something they would do as a focused update...  Something akin to what Orbx and Samscene3D does for a default city.
