Heck, we haven't even seen the first update yet on the Marketplace.

That was my thought…I normally don’t buy aircraft in the marketplace but I recall this one was a really good sale price.  Lesson learned.  It’s inconceivable how it can take Asobo so long to green light an update.  Unnecessary really.

And updated again to v2.1.1

Can't find a change log, but it's minor things in the cockpit. I'm hoping they've reduced the size of the heading bug. That bloody great triangle obscures about twenty degrees of the scale.

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.

Yes indeed, and the heading bug is fixed!  The Islander is now one of my favourite aircraft in MSFS.👍

New textures inside and out, new animated doodads (chocks, covers) outside, the doors and windows all open, the gauge graphics all redone, electrical system overhauled. I know this from the V2 videos on Youtube. This plane was off my radar until I noticed the ratings in the marketplace rising slowly. It's old school steam gauge with the old school VOR's and ADF needles.

5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB  PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.
