Is the Flying Iron B-17G still being developed ?

Featured Replies

F.I. recently posted pictures of their Spitfire WIP rebuild for MSFS2024 on Facebook, and some of the comments asked about the B-17's progress. F.I. didn't respond at all, which is concerning. Maybe they were just trying to keep the thread on-topic ( i.e. the Spitfire ). Personally, I welcome everything they produce, but the B-17 is eagerly anticipated.

Does anyone have any information on the project ? I'm not looking for anything precise - just a reassurance that development continues.

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.

Who could say, but after seeing the Microprose- that would be the one I'd want.

That's great; thanks for that.

Back to my original query - does anyone know whether Flying Iron are still developing their B-17G ?

FI are still doing the B17 however at the moment it's all hands working on the V2 Spitfire.

You won't see their B17 for quite some time.  Plenty of chat about it over on their discord.

Thanks for that. I wasn't expecting it any time soon, but as long as it's alive, then I'm happy. Flying Iron is the best WW2 aircraft developer out there.
