A Condor airliner taking off at Kastelli Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator

Flight Simulation developers continue to provide daily news about upcoming products for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Every day, Simulation Daily publishes a roundup of all the news across the industry, to let you stay up to date with what’s going on. Incidentally, today we also have DCS World News for the fans of military simulation.

But before we get down to business, here’s a link to relevant news that has been covered individually.

Without further ado, I leave you with the news. If you’re interested in general gaming news, we also have a dedicated recap.

Kastelli Airport Announced for Microsoft Flight Simulator and MSFS 2024

FSDG announced an interesting airport coming to both Microsoft Flight Simulator and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.

If you’re unfamiliar with Kastelli Airport (LGTL) it’s an expansion of the current airbase that will open in 2025 and replace Heraklion International Airport. It’s not yet open, but it will be fairly soon.

Indiafoxtexho shows upcoming ships for Microsoft Flight Simulator

Indiafoxtecho showcased some of the ships it’s building to support its aircraft. The models of the Cavour Italian aircraft carrier, the FREMM frigate, and the Amerigo Vespucci school ship have been completed. The latter will be included in the package as an easter egg, placed along the Italian coastline.

The British Queen Elizabeth and Prince of Wales carriers, along with Type 26 frigate and Type 45 destroyer models have also been done. These packages will be released at some point in September and will be “very inexpensive.”

Militech Simulations Teases Aerial Refueling Add-on

Militech Simulation posted about its upcoming Aerial Refueling add-on, Aerial Refueling Pro, showing a couple of pictures of the Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker model.

The developer mentions that the add-on will miss the summer 2024 window, but will “cover all” the topic, including different tanker aircraft, liveries and operators, etc.

If you’d like to get into flight simulation but you’d like a helping hand to get started, you can read our introductory guide, alongside the second episode focusing on installing add-ons, and another showcasing the basic instruments.
