I dont think WT did anything to the flightmodels on the aircrafts except the cj4.

Cessna Citation CJ4 & Avionics:

  • Improved flight model:
    • Improvements to ground and crosswind handing during the takeoff and landing phases
    • Improvements to flight control performance accuracy, smoothness, and handling
    • Improvements to fuel consumption accuracy
    • Improvements to handling while in ground effect

Cessna Citation Longitude:

  • Flight model improvements:
    • Better feeling of direct control
    • Highly accurate performance numbers
    • Revised fuel burns
    • Improved ground and crosswind handling
    • More accurate float during the landing phase



Also in today's dev stream when they mentioned improvements to "legacy flight model" I believe they might've been talking about helicopters specifically.. will need to go back and check but apart from having that bullet point on the chart along with other heli stuff they didn't speak specifically to it.

As for ground-handling, slipperiness, and inertia: for the aircraft I mostly fly in the sim (Fenix A320, PMDG 737, Milviz C310, iniBuilds A310, etc) I don't see any of these issues, and ground handling is definitely improved after the Fenix and PMDG implemented and tuned the new SU11 ground friction related parameters for their birds... of course YMMV and maybe controller settings need to be adjusted.

The rep from Antonov said on stream that we may see more surprises in the future with this new partnership with MSFS

I was looking at images of the AN-225 cockpit I could find on google, there are some cockpit displays that don't match, I wonder if the cockpit was based on different references. Maybe plans from Antonov.

Did they mention the Spruce Goose at all when they talked about the increased engine count?

Jorg wants to release the PC version of the AN-225 on February 27th (but he's willing the delay it to match the X-Box release with SU12 if the community wants it)

However, true 6 engine support isn't coming until SU12, which means if it releases beforehand it won't have true 6 engine support, but at most 4 representing 6.

No.

That was a really good stream. Jörg's enthusiasm and openess is always refreshing. And what Sebastian had to show for the next Update was also very promising.

It's been a while, but it felt like they listened to the feedback they are getting and picked some good things to improve upon.

In the course of their career many Antonov have been modified more at least see modernized. Sometimes the photos are misleading.
