A DA50....

That would certainly make me happy! My GA favourite aircraft.

I have no actual guess as to what the July surprise may be but I share @ErichB's sentiment that regardless of what it is, I'm grateful for the level of support we've received from MS/Asobo thus far.

Well I think GotFriends stopped working on theirs for msfs due to Asobo having the Diamond license. It would be an easy one for them to whip up.

A proper upgrade to weather system with real thunderstorms which you want to avoid every possible way. Unless you are suicidal...

Don't believe a surprise is targeted for July? Per the latest dev Q&A (watch here at this timestamp: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1810479907?t=01h20m49s ) they call out  "SU 13 and Surprise" for August, and then "Surprise" for November.

In any case hoping for some good stuff and more than just a new aircraft... might well be the in-development seasons feature, maybe for the November surprise.

I wish they would focus more on other things, and leave aircraft development to the Developers.

I'll let them know. 😉

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.

A dedicated VR update.

I imagine it's something relatively small, maybe a simple plane or scenery update. But who knows? I think if it were something big it would have been in development long enough we'd have heard something by now that would spoil the surprise.
