Today third-party developers shared news and releases of Microsoft Flight Simulator add-ons, including both an aircraft and scenery.
First of all, Iris Simulations released its Pilatus PC-21 trainer. You can find it at the developer’s own store for $34.99.
Below you can see what it looks like.
Next, we learn that VerticalSim is planning to release Tampa International (KTPA) in the United States before Christmas.
“I’ve decided to go ahead and move forward full-time working on TPA (Tampa). I’m aiming to release slightly before Christmas. Could be earlier, could be after.
TPA is about 70% done. I’ve decided that I will be doing parallax on all terminals besides Airside C to save performance.
And nearly every model has been retextured and redone to meet new standards. Also, a lot of new detail has been added in that wasn’t in the XPlane 11 version.”
Last, but not least, iniBuilds announced XS81 San Antonio Landmarks and Helipads.
If you’re wondering “XS81” is the ICAO code of the helipad of Christus Santa Rosa Children’s Hospital, which is included in the package alongside the following:
- Highly detailed model of major landmarks of inner Downtown San Antonio
- Highly detailed recreation of Christus Santa Rosa Children’s Hospital and accompanying helipad
