This C404 Titan screams of carenado's modeling

Same with this C90 - wonder what avionics itll be?  Hopefully the Pro Line 21

GotFriends is confirmed to be doing the Draco

Not sure who modeled this new Textron Sky Courier C408 but it looks really nice!

 

Apparently the animal models and animations were bought from the Planet Zoo devs, Frontier

From all the videos, it looks so much more fun to fly around the world. I have seen the Grand Canyon, what looks to be the Safari, somewhere in winter, etc, and the trees and now the "rocks" make the terrain looks so much better.

I will almost certainly get the Standard Edition. I am not really interested in default aircraft.

The yellow/brownish grass at 5:10 in the video, is that type of yellow/brownish grass even in MSFS 2020?

Me too for the Standard edition as I will be bringing so many high quality payware aircraft with me. If its's anything like 2020, I'll delete most of the default anyway😉

If you pre-order any edition of 2024 you’ll get the CL-415 in 2020 for free

I suggest checking my video in my post on page 2 if you want to see the Grand Canyon MUCH better 😱

I will for sure go for the maximum, the aviators edition. Simply because. And I am sure that in the next four years this will pay off because of some planes coming later might be cheaper then. And to be honest, for the amount of hours I invest in MSFS each month, even 220 bucks is cheap.

Pre-order price for the Aviator edition is: $199

The real question is : Are PAPI aligned with Glideslope/ glidepath ?

Oooh a version even larger than Premium Deluxe.... the Aviator edition 😉

 

So I can choose 2x the cheapest one as I fly Prosim 738 only and from low to high price there is only a difference in 10 bespoke airports .

I only fly to third party airports so the base version seems for me the one to go for …

Is there a full list somewhere of the aircraft included with the Aviator Edition? I've been looking at lists of the famous flyers, local legends, etc. - but I can't seem to get it to add up to 30 aircraft, not sure if I'm just making a mistake or what. May just end up doing Premium Deluxe, but it would be helpful to see a full list before I decide.
