ATR 72-500 for X-Plane Gets New Screenshots and Development Update
Mango Studios provided a batch of screenshots and a development update of its ATR 72-500 for X-Plane 12.
The developer mentioned on Discord that it intends to finish the aircraft, and it’s currently working on finishing the systems.
They claim they believe they have “one of the most powerful electric systems simulations ever made.”
They’re also working on the complex landing gear arrangement and final details on the exterior.
The FMC and EFB are still missing, which means that the aircraft may not make it for a release this year.
