April 17, 20251 yr That’s one I’m looking forward to, and will certainly buy once it’s fully over in FS24.

April 17, 20251 yr Yay! Will they consider doing the 727-100? I can only see pictures of the -200. EDIT: Discord link is not working for me.

April 18, 20251 yr Yup. Not buying it until 2024 compatibility is official. I already have their freighter that I can't use. Also, their E-Jets Beta for 2024 has made me upset - I brought up in their Discord that there is illumination in the cockpit without any source and it's too bright and there is no way to adjust it. It's almost as if you had a dome light on which makes night flying stupid. They said it wasn't getting fixed. That sorta soured me on the whole thing. They need to treat 2024 stuff with priority. Some of us aren't hanging on to old versions of the sim. I already have tons of 2020 aircraft I can't fly - like the MD-11 or all of my PMDG fleet. So, not buying anything unless it's already 2024 compatible.

TANSTAAFL -B Have seen many older video reviews of it. Looking forward to it. The only bug I noticed had to do with cabin pressure. Wasn't going to buy anything more for 2020, but don't think 2024 will be ready for me for about another year.
April 19, 20251 yr The videos I saw from soon after release looked like it had the pitch and roll response of a 172. Have they addressed that? Does it "feel" like a 200,000 lb airliner now? I love vintage jets, especially the 727, since my entire ATPL ground school revolved around it. But those early videos put me right off this one. Edited April 19, 20251 yr by gunther

April 24, 20251 yr Won't install for me (grayed out), but I don't have SU2 beta installed. I'll just hang out til SU2 is released.
April 24, 20251 yr Sorry I should have specified, their discord says it requires SP2 beta.
