The Kuro 787-8 is being adapted for SU 13, but even more importantly the 787-9 is to be finally shown on Friday, no release date yet. Whoever said we have no long-haulers in MSFS...

Very nice.  Air Tahiti Nui 8 heavy cleared for take off runway 04.

Oof might come back.

Wow, 30 liveries at launch?

Looking forward to this update and giving it a go when it's released.

I doubt the public release will be this weekend and they're not giving an ETA yet.

I think you already lifted the NDA by disclosing the details. 😄

I wish they would go to a fbw type installer.

Strange to have Juneyao, Norwegian, Shanghai, Vistara and Xiamen painted for launch, when Korean, LATAM, and United have more 787-9s in their fleets.

If feedback is that Horizon's 787-9 is good, I may cave and buy MSFS Premium Deluxe next month during Black Friday sales.
