April 17, 20251 yr Thanks for posting about the update and providing the change log! It's funny, just a few days ago when I was flying the MD11, I was thinking to myself it had been a while since the last update.

April 18, 20251 yr They really need to get on the ball with 2024 sooner. It's starting to get less than ideal.
April 18, 20251 yr It actually seems to work okay in 24 from a bit of testing I’d done. Okay for shorter flights but increased chances of wasm crashes on longer ones. That’s with SU2 - it seems in general that one fixed a few planes up.

April 18, 20251 yr Definitely getting this for 24. Would appreciate an update on the progress. "I am the Master of the Fist!" -Akuma

You may have to open it in 2020 first to authenticate but not sure. And of course to caveat all of this - not officially supported at all. It may break or crash during a flight. I had a couple of successful short flights but not had a lot of time to rest heaps and certainly not tried longer hauls.
