Hey guys, thank you everyone for your feedback since our Alpha launch, its been seriously invaluable! The team is already hard at work on the first wave of updates scheduled to come out sometime next week, along with the first price increase for those who haven't bought in yet. Just a quick reminder to send reported bugs/ improvement suggestions to our dedicated support forum (sent to you by email when purchased), so our devs can look directly at your feedback. Have a great weekend guys!

LOL - thank you for your support. People's feedbacks have already been really helpful for the aircraft. Our crew is working on elevating more it as we speak.

There is no RAF included in the Alpha launch. Funny enough though, I sent that livery request to the team a day or so ago. I want to get it in as a livery in one of the upcoming updates. I'll keep y'all posted.

Its possible. We're exploring this as we speak as we've gotten similar comments on our forums/ discord. Glad the download finally went through 🙂

Hey guys! We've officially launched our Dirty Thirty Alpha release. Thank you everyone for your patience, enthusiasm, & support - it means the world to the team. Check it out here: https://blackbirdsims.com/flight/PG.php?id=85

Super glad to hear you guys are excited for the Alpha release tomorrow! We're so pumped to get it out the door for y'all. SO many hours have been put into this thing ahaha.

Like I said, the plan is to eventually completely revamp the Corsair for 2024.. Not sure where that will be in our product pipeline though. Our main focuses right now are the D30, Zero, & SR71.

Hey guys! Our reupload of the stream just went live for those who may have missed it. In this session, we took a deep dive into the upcoming Dirty Thirty release, teased a few exciting aircraft projects on the horizon, and answered some of your burning questions. Check it out here:

Probably not. We already posted our main trailer for the Alpha release.. We will be posting our livestream recap before EOD on our YouTube, though.. We went over the Dirty Thirty Cold/ Dark startup, in-flight footage, showcased tons of features + a landing. We're planning on doing some more 'how to?' videos for the aircraft in the next couple weeks, though.

Thanks everyone for tuning in! It was great chatting/ hanging with y'all on stream! If you wanna check out more news on our D30 release, I'll include the link to our website here: https://blackbirdsims.com/flight/PG.php?id=85

The plan is to completely revamp it for 2024 at some point so we can have some Zero 'dogfights' lol.. (No this isn't an official announcement ahah).
