A while back, a cool freeware tool was released for Microsoft Flight Simulator that enabled you to pushback with any aircraft. Toolbar Pushback was a big success and went on to become one of the most popular downloads on FlightSim.to with over half a million people downloading it. A new ‘Pro’ edition is on the way and is being published by Aerosoft.
The ‘Pro’ edition of the software will come with a number of enhancements over the freeware version (which will remain available). This includes the ability to tow an aircraft forward, take advantage of Wwise pushback audio and be fully compatible with VR. Furthermore, there are various languages and accents for ground crew and pilots, as well as improved flow for virtual air traffic. There are other improvements coming in the future such as the ability to interact with seaplanes.
You can see the complete difference between the free and pro versions in the handy table below.
As confirmed on social media earlier today, Toolbar Pushback Pro is slated to release on February 22nd 2024 for PC and Xbox and will cost €9.95 (including taxes).
