If you’re eager to fly the Bombardier CRJ in Microsoft Flight Simulator, Aerosoft released more goodies today.

Recommended Videos

First of all, we get a new volume of the manual, and more precisely part 2 of the operating manual, which looks really detailed, with a lot to learn to operate the aircraft correctly. You’ll have to log into the Aerosoft forums to download it, but it’s worth it if you’re interested in beginning your studies ahead of release.

That being said, Aerosoft intends to also release a series of video tutorials hosted by a CRJ pilot with thousands of hours on the aircraft.

Speaking of videos, another clip from the beta test was also released today, courtesy of Flyer0245. We see the basic features of autopilot being used in flight, including heading, altitude, and vertical speed modes.

At the moment, the release date of the CRJ Package (which will initially include CRJ 550 and 700 and then expand with the 900 and 1000 versions) has not officially announced, but project manager Mathijs Kok mentioned today mentioned today that a release by the end of the year is still possible: “Things are going to the wire on this one.”

In the meanwhile, you can watch this beauty in action below. It looks really, really good.

Incidentally, if you’re interested in Microsoft Flight Simulator add-ons, you can enjoy our recent reviews of Newcastle International Airport, Sankt Johann Airfield, Dublin International Airport, and Seoul City Wow.

Microsoft Flight Simulator is already available for Windows 10 and Steam and will release in summer 2021 for Xbox Series X ad Series S.

Earlier this week, we learned that over two million players have installed Microsoft Flight Simulator so far on their PCs and that the new update on Dec. 22 will bring virtual reality support to the table, alongside dynamic snow, ice, and more.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
