We start with Blue Bird Simulations, which provided new screenshots of its upcoming Boeing 757, alongside a handy Q&A confirming that the aircraft is also coming to Xbox and more.
Just Flight released new images and an update on the Fokker F28 Fellowship.
Q1- What versions will you be making?A – The initial release will be the passenger version with both the 200 and 300 variants. Each variant will have the PW and RR ( E version ) along with winglet and non-winglet types
Q2 – Is it coming to Xbox?A- Yes absolutely. We don’t know if it will be on the initial release but this plane is definitely coming to Xbox.
Q3 – Will there be a cargo version A – Yes but it will be a separate expansion pack. The cargo variant will get lots of attention
An update also came (a few days ago, but I missed it when it was released) from Ouroboros showing off its freeware Embraer E170-100.
We’ve talked in previous In Development updates about how vibrant and quirky the F28 cockpit is when compared to other airliners, and these screenshots showing our 8k cockpit with night lighting, a vast array of multi-coloured lamps and annunciators, emphasise just how immersive an environment it is.
We’ve just finished adding our new virtual cabin to all four variants of the F28, with their different fuselage and emergency exit configurations. With our custom views you can sit back and enjoy the unique wing views, including a great view of the tail-mounted engines.
The optional engine hush-kits are shown here for the first time, along with some stunning new liveries, and we’ll soon be showing off some of the systems coding.
To follow the developer’s progress, you can check out its Discord server.
Another update came from FlightFX, which announced that its Cirrus Vision Jet SF50 has passed an important development milestone, having entered its beta phase today.
The developer promised on its discord server to process feedback as quickly as possible and provide updates along the way.
