Piper PA-38 Tomahawk for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Showcased
Just Flight showcased its next aircraft that is being converted to be Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 native, and it’s the Piper PA-38 Tomahawk.
The upgrade will be free for existing owners of the MSFS 2020 version and will bring the aircraft fully up to MSFS 2024 native standards, on top of adding new features suggested by the community.
Said features will also be added to the MSFS 2020 version itself with a free update.
Pilatus PC-12NG for Microsoft Flight Simulator Gets New Screenshots
SimWorks Studios provided two screenshots of the upcoming Pilatus PC-12NG, which is currently in development. We also hear about updates for the existing PC-12.
“When the tablet work for the GA-8 is concluded, it will be ported and adjusted to the PC-12, which will close the biggest remaining task for this aircraft. An update to the flight model that addresses the lack of drag at slower speeds is being tested, with very good results so far. To avoid a lengthy wait, we will issue a small update to the PC-12 featuring the updated flight model and bug fixes for reported avionics issues and if time permits, also the tablet. The final avionics upgrades will follow, at which point we will begin converting the plane to FS2024-native.
Next, the failure tech developed for the Airvan is going to be ported over to the PC-12. In the first week we expect to have failures for the electrical system, avionics, propeller and governor, brakes, fuel, and oil system. These alone give us at least 100 failure points to begin with, not accounting for the new engine simulation that will be developed on the PC-12.
Lastly, we are leaving you with a couple of NG shots. While a work-in-progress, the NG is in the game and will be quick work once the failures for the legacy are concluded.”
