I just picked up the next gen emb-110 for a few dollars from the market place. Before people jump on the " this is junk" bandwagon, I must say that for the money, this aircraft is a wonderful--no stress-- twin turbo to fly short flights on a moment's notice. Everything seems to work, that is, the basic stuff such as autopilot and other main features, all seem to work fine. In a matter of minutes, I can fly a short run, even manually, and have a lot of fun taking off and landing. In manual mode, the aircraft stays level nicely and takeoff and landing behavior is somwhat realistic. Acceleration and deceleration appear to be pretty good. Sounds are not the best, but then I've come to accept less than perfect sounds in most msfs aircrafts. The cockpit all analog layout is a beauty--at least for those of us who still favor analog guages.

Yes, I have the high fidelity aircrafts from PMDG and others, but at times I want to be a lazy pilot, that is, plan an easy gps flight that takes less than one hour so that I can then go to my other family obligations. This aircraft allows me to do that time and time again. A sign of a good aircraft is one that you don't mind loading the sim with after the first time.

I am old sim veteran, so I give this aircraft a strong 4 for things just feeling right--- unlike a virtualcol aircraft, which never gets its flight model right. This aircraft is not perfect, but for the money it provides a lot of band. Even the beta reverse work well. 

Please be forewarned that if you're looking for a PMDG or Fenix at this price, you'll be disappointed.

This is a much, much better aircraft than many of Asobo default aircrafts.

Is that the new version? They have announced an upgrade for 2024 that should come out fairly soon. I am just waiting for that.

Ive had this for quite some time and although its dated now, its a solid AC to fly with... easy to use and great for short airfields... use it a lot flying regional routes around NZ.. v2 should be awesome when it comes out!

Looking forward to the next version when it comes out. About 30 years ago I flew the E110 for approx 2000 hours. 

I will probably pick it up when the new version comes out, see the link with info below:

NextGen Simulations breaks silence with EMB 110 V2 announcement and Saab updates - MSFS Addons

 

Instant buy for me, love the OG and spent a lot of time with it.

The Next Gen EMB110 carries the award of being the first ever aircraft addon I bought in MSFS 2020, 5 years ago.   It came out really early after the release of 2020.  It was a real mess to begin with but they updated it many times and the last time I flew it (around 3 years ago) it was a very stable platform and good fun to get the basic twin turbo-prop vibe.

I think a 2024 update will need considerably better texturing, modelling and sounds though.

For info.....the new MS2024 version of NextGen's EMB110 is now available in the Market Place

And it will take a few weeks/months until it will be available at other vendors. That's particularly relevant if you owned v1. I bought v1 from Simmarket, and the (substantial) discount for owners of v1 will only be applied at the store were you bought it. I'll have to wait.

It has quite a low review rating so far. I think about 3.7 from memory. This concerns me, as I was looking forward to this.

It can be rented first I believe, if you want to try before you buy.

It had that rating immediately when it appesred in the Market Place - I wonder if the rating is inherited from the earlier version? That had that score....

I believe there's a discount for people upgrading from the original version so time to wait for it to reach Simmarket

I have V1. I think it is pretty good.

30+ years ago I spent 2 years flying one and close to 2000 hours on type. It was/is a great machine to fly in the rw and this sim version was enjoyable. I'll be buying this latest version.

Yep I recall they stated around 13$ for the upgrade
