The latest development while exciting is clearly over a year away which is disappointing. According to Synaptic alot of work is still left to be done with texturing. Look at what is being done with the A21N in Horizon Simulations. Look at what is being done with FBW. The old jokes about Virtualcol are tired. At the end of the day just getting a decent looking model out for MSFS opens up the doors for talent to come in and take it to the next level. Even in 2023 with plenty of mods to improve aircraft we still have comments like this who dont see the entire picture. What a shame The entire picture? VirtualCol makes trash add ons worthy of inclusion on an Abacus boxed set for fs9. You seem desperate to want a 220 no matter the quality. I think most of us here would rather not see a VirtualCol one get released, than they continue and thousands of people get duped on the marketplace by it thinking it is something it’s not. But hey, if you want trash so bad I’m sure you could reach out to them and send them some cash to finish the project… Edited June 1, 20233 yr by CaptainNick Nick Silver http://www.youtube.com/user/socalf1fan Ryzen 7 5800X3D, 64gb ddr4 3200mhz ram, RTX 4080 Super, HP Reverb G2 v2, 4K Tv Monitor

To those who are interested, I'm happy to let them know. There's already a few in here who have asked me in private. 1 of them as recently as about a month ago. True. Flight simulation hobbyists (or whatever we're called) are some of the most immature and petty of humans on the internet. A lot of us are kind of fierce and have brand loyalty. Some (like me) don't really care about what sim or plane someone in a virtual world unless we get frustrated by a developer. To get back on the main point, I am not sure why anyone would be disappointed with Virtuacol to stop developing a plane for MSFS. Their planes historically are not only lower fidelity overall but lack important updates and even more importantly....they charge too much money for lacking so much substance. Not the only developer that does this. There is a huge list in the last few years. As far as XP 12. Well, this is the MSFS forums and I only have XP11 for a bit because I can't part with some of the planes I own. But the freeware aerobask da62 is stealing the show from Aerobask at the moment. Comment below....if Aerobask made planes for MSFS I'd totally re-buy them!

However, anecdotal data would seem to indicate that the far larger market lies with MSFS, so that does make the "why don't you develop for MSFS" question more than just "XP sucks." Kinda like, Michelin is a great tire, and there's a reason you can get Michelins for a Lexus ES as well as for the Bugatti Chiron. Far fewer people using the Bugatti, so it makes good business sense to sell to the more mass-market cars as well. All that is to say that I really wish some of the better XP developers (not just HS -Aerobask too) would consider developing for MSFS as well. I'd buy!

But hey, if you want trash so bad I’m sure you could reach out to them and send them some cash to finish the project… I don't "seem" to want another aircraft no matter the quality. I already gave my reasons on why as I don't need every plane in my hanger to be study level. Who knows if the community would have been able to improve on it. There's no reason to flat out say this wouldn't happen. Take that pessimism to someone who cares to read it. Nobody is being duped when a developer clearly states what the product is. I think Vcol has been very transparent in their business and You aren't above anyone else that is interested in Lower fidelity addons that are priced accordingly. There is a market for it otherwise LVFR wouldn't have gave up on sceneries and moved to aircraft. But sure go ahead and be like most of the arm chair captains on here and remind strangers how much "higher" your standards are because you only fly high fidelity. I bet you log off thinking so high and mighty of yourself. Very Cringe Edited June 2, 20233 yr by environmental_ice

When I bought the Virtualcol E175 where did they state that it was, to all intents and purposes, impossible to fly it from A to B making use of the autopilot? Where did they state that for twenty quid that the sounds you would get were so bad that you had to mute them? Where did they transparently state that the plane was a waste of money?.

It's the worst plane ever released for MSFS without any doubt. Trash. The old geezer that made it should retire. Edited June 2, 20233 yr by jarmstro
