FB KMSP released!

[Jeff Nielsen 1,402]

Out of the blue!

KMSP for Microsoft Flight Simulator (flightbeam.net)

[F737MAX 5,738]

Rushed (due to competition) or as good as we expect?

Certainly unexpected when KSFO was anticipated to be next!

[Wise87 1,286]

Been waiting for this. Installed and looking around now.

So excited to see this!

Now if a company would just announce KSFO maybe we would get that one in short order too!

But, really happy FlightBeam has done it.

It seems that there was a bit of rush, for some reason but you can still see the FB quality seal.

“ …. Big improvements already in the works

Coming in v1.1: Even better interiors, animated passengers, improved custom terrain, Hangar updates... “

Mir said SFO will be out before the end of the year.

Yea, I am sure they decided to get it out to market before the competition released theirs and follow up with additional improvements later. I am happy with this partly because as Polosim said, you can see the quality already there, and because I trust Mir to come through with the updates.

I'm releasing KSFO this afternoon. 😉  /s

Anyone getting loud airport/engine noise by terminals?

This and PHX were supposed to be released in the spring, so no idea where the “unexpected” comments are coming from. Mir mentioned both were in the pipe.

Hmm... This looks like it may become 'the new normal' (FlyTampa have done the same recently with their EHAM). An 'early access' without the lower price incentive and finished to the usual high quality at some later date.

I'm going to hold off until v1.1 is released.

Thanks for the info.

Havent purchased it yet but from the product page....

"Flightbeam EnvSound FX

We've captured real world sounds from airside locations and terminal entrances, and placed them right into the product."

 

Sounds interesting. What do you think?

Seems a tad loud and no way to adjust it from what I can see. But I am sitting at gate with engines off looking around. I'll try it out during a flight.
