September 19, 20241 yr Moderator Color me dumb but does it say anywhere WHEN one can get the freebie? IMHO, when I get 2024 I'll be busy exploring that and not have any desire or time to try a new a/c with 2020. If it's available now, I sure can't see it.

Fire up MSFS2020 and go to your Content Manager and it'll be there showing as "Uninstalled". At least, it was for me.

The aircraft doesn't appear in the Marketplace for me but it's definitely listed in my Content Manager. FWIW, I preordered my copy from the XBox store (in Canada), EDIT: According to this post over on the official forums, it can take up to 2 business days for the aircraft to appear on your account. https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/where-to-find-the-msfs2024-pre-order-plane-canadair-cl415/655406 Guess I got lucky.

September 20, 20241 yr Anyone who has got it able to comment on who's developed it and what the quality is like ?
September 20, 20241 yr It can take a couple of days before it is in your content manager. If you can walk away it's a good landing
