These older BlackSquare products aren't completely built from scratch, but use Asobo files and modify them. So for instance the doors don't open etc. The Duke has more features and is all new files.

  • It's really nice to see black square supporting their legacy products!  

  • Legacy? Is FS2020 now allready Legacy?  

  • I think the dukes fly very well.  One of the few addons that can actually handle a stiff crosswind.

Blacksquare has mentioned he has plans to produce some or all of these with their own models so they will be completely independent of the default models.
I wonder if his wonderful analog conversions will still work if the default aircraft they are based on are updated in MSFS2024.

Is it known yet as to whether BS products for msfs2020 will be compatible with 2024 or will it be required to purchase again? I’m considering the Dukes but would rather no purchase twice.

Another question is how to make your copilot visible in the cockpits of the caravan and the king air. Not sure where to select this.

thanks.

If Asobo succeeds in making most of the MSFS2020 aircraft work in MSFS2024, the Duke will probably work right away or require a small fix. It's the analog conversions that I am worried about. These are not standalone products and rely heavily on MSFS2020 default aircraft. If Asobo has updated these to MSFS2024 level I think BlackSquare might need to do a lot of work to make them compatible again with their MSFS20204 model.

The advantage is that then they will have opening doors/windows, walkaround and visible passengers.

I think it's pretty much a given than the default KA350, Caravan, Bonanza and Baron will all have been updated to 2024 standard.

I may be missing something here, but this line

WTT Mode autopilot is now integrated natively.  No additional packages are required to access all features of the PMS50 GTN 750 any longer.

Seems to state that the PMS50 GTN 750 now has all it's features active, yet I am not seeing that, traffic is greyed out along with everything else that was previously so.

So what does that line refer to?

It will be in one month 😄

I have received the email from JustFlight as well, since I had bought the King Air (they made a unified email, including the info about the Caravan even though I had not bought it yet). Having seen the quality of these addons with the KingAir and the TBM, I decided to buy the Caravan as well. It will be perfect to blast through the Alaskan airfields when I'm not flying the Bagolu's or JPL's babies 🙂

Really love their planes. Your comment makes me want to buy their caravan now haha

Great aircraft! I flew it and the King lots after getting them ages ago.

I would love to get the Caravan, but the prices remain very high for such an old product.

Better off getting the Kodiak at this point.

True. Had the Kodiak since release. I guess I can just stick with that.

Have the BS King Air, Bonanza, Dukes and TBM. Love all these planes, the support for them and all of it.

SWS needs to update their stuff before I buy from them again.
