That is awesome! Great to see that they are adding an digital EADI and EHSI. I wish we would also get a proper TBM 850 exterior model. But that is only a very small gripe.

Yes this is great news!

The glass stuff we have from WT is incredible.  But I like to have options.

Also this allows me to run DLSS3 with analog planes because the clarity doesn't degrade as much.

Waaaait what!?

Great!

 

hope I get some discount for that music as compensation 😫

That is some excing news! I love the Black Square Caravan, and I am looking forward to the Baron, and now the steam guage TBM too!

For those who are extra lazy like me and don't want to watch the video lol...  I cropped this from the video so it's not reflecting the high quality textures at all!

Black Square are hitting it out the park at the minute!

The steam gauge / hybrid TBM will be absolutely amazing.

the FD's in the bonanza and baron seems PERFECT. Been waiting a long time for that.

A steam gauge TBM!  Why would you want one of those?

Beats me, Bruce.

People still haven't figured out that glass cockpit avionics are much more reliable...

 

It's like wanting an old dialphone over one with buttons. Pure nostalgia, and no practical reason it seems.

Irl glass is amazing.  In the sim it's tough to read some of the values sometimes.  Plus it's nice to take a break from every other glass plane.

And it's flying past Miami Beach in the video...Definitely a Steveo shoutout.

why do people buy electronic watches that imitate analog watches? analog information is easier to grasp for the brain than numbers. 

why do people enjoy DC6s, DC3s, and double decker classic aircraft when they can take a jet? why do some still ride Harley Davidsons? and collect old paintings when they could have a crisp photograph instead? questions and more questions.
