February 6, 20233 yr In the Marketplace now. https://discord.com/channels/750764704175226992/763804431413673984/1072232194367574066 @everyone We are pleased to announce the release of the _TBM 930 Enhanced_ and _Citation Longitude Enhanced_ packages, now available as free downloads from the MSFS Marketplace for PC users. These optional packages enhance the default versions of their respective airplanes to enable independent operation of the pilot and co-pilot PFDs. The Longitude package also enables independent operation of the copilot outboard PFD GTC. **The enhanced packages require the base airplanes (TBM 930 and Longitude) to work properly.** Note that installing these packages will increase system resource usage when flying the affected planes (system memory usage, CPU usage, and GPU usage). Users with lower end PCs may experience decreased performance and in rare cases, application instability when using the enhanced packages. You may elect to uninstall the enhanced packages at any time; you will lose the independent PFD functionality but will still have access to the new default G3000 features introduced in AAU1. -B Edited February 6, 20233 yr by btacon

February 6, 20233 yr Be interesting to see what impact it actually does have on performance like they mentioned in the Discord post above. Eric
February 6, 20233 yr Do or will these work with the current freeware flight model mods? SAR Pilot. Flight Sim'ing since the beginning.
February 6, 20233 yr Maybe a stupid question... other than mimicking the real thing, how does this help us as single pilot operators?

I was hoping it was a modification to the flight model or something useful.

February 6, 20233 yr Author I tried the mod, but like another poster I saw no real value for me. YMMV. And on he topic of TANSTAAFL, as predicted by WT I noticed a noticeable (10% 6-10) drop in frames I have uninstalled for now and all back as before so no worries -B
