Microsoft Flight Simulator CRJ Add-On Reveals Even More Spectacular Screenshots as Beta Test Begins

Those eagerly awaiting Aerosoft’s Bombardier CRJ add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator are in for a treat (or many) today.

The package is currently being beta tested, and plenty of screenshots have been posted on the official forums (sources: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

Featured prominently in the screenshots is the Lufthansa Regional operated by Erowings livery, which looks lovely.

Incidentally, if you’re wondering why people would fly regional airliners in formation, that’s because the developers are working on a video, which requires an aircraft to “chase” another and act as a camera.

Interestingly, we hear that the CRJ will have plenty of documentation, with five manuals included in the package. Yes. Five.

You can enjoy the screenshots below.

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) is still unknown, with “hopes” (but no promises) that it’ll come before the end of the year. At the moment, Aerosoft is waiting for Asobo to fix a few remaining issues before they can commit to a launch date..

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

Speaking of Microsoft Flight Simulator in general, during a livestreamed event a few days ago, the developers shared a lot of details about the future of the sim, including the next world update focusing on the United Kingdom.
