Pilatus test pilot is flying the PC-21 in MSFS and likes it

A Pilatus test pilot was test flying the PC-21 in MSFS (from Iris I think) and found it surprisingly good within the normal flight envelope with some weak spots at the edge or beyond the envelope.

The video also gives a nice impression about the rugged terrain around the Pilatus factory airfield (LSZC).

Many years back, when watching Buochs ops, I still remember very well, how the F-5 Tigers dropped over the Eastern ridge of Bürgenstock leveling their wings barely before reaching short final.

Well, different devs, and one is payware, so…🤷‍♂️

That’s actually pretty good news!

Considering that this is a fully aerobatic, high performance “fighter plane” (and a prop, to boot!), I’m willing to forgive some edge of envelope inaccuracies. 

I’ve had this in the hangar forever, but mostly stopped once the MilViz/BBS came out. Will have to take it out for a spin again!😎👍

Not sure how that's comparable, the one in the video is a third party addon.
