Captain Sim is working on a big update for their Boeing 757. Over on their forum they have given us a lot more insight in what to exactly expect for this upcoming 1.1 update. They are looking at fixing some bugs and issues that have been reported, as well as working to implementing some brand new features that have been in high request. At least one of the most notable features they are looking in to including in the 1.1 update is the management of cockpit states. There will also be a brand new ACE tool and a new 4 door configuration for the aircraft. You can find the full changelog at the end of this post.
