Helisimmer (Sergio Costa) posted his general thoughts on FS Expo '23: https://www.helisimmer.com/articles/looking-back-flightsimexpo-2023

Good that he is actually working with MS/Asobo to keep improving the helicopter support:

And not just Thrustmaster. Meeting face-to-face, with people that I only know by email or social media, helped strengthen that relationship and create new ones. Those relationships will help me to either get more and better news for all of you but that will also allow me to work with them in developing or improving their products, just like I already do with a few companies – including VIRPIL and Microsoft, for example.

I get to help shape those products and get feedback from you to them as well.

• On AI traffic:

  • There's something called the authentic air traffic. And what that means is we're going to do the right models, ideally with the right liveries as long as we can license these word not allowed things. But we are trying hard to get liveries

Not to knock 2024, but this is basically the same thing they promised with 2020.

Well, what they say in this interview is not a promise, but conditioned on them being able to work out the licensing. Seems like they are making some progress with that tho.
