FlightFactor has released their latest update to the 757 Professional, which includes the long-awaited FPDS upgrade. The update itself is free of charge, but users wishing to add the FPSD avionics to their aircraft will have to pay $20 for the upgrade. This also then makes those wishing to have the complete aircraft will have to pay $92.
The update, version 2.3.6, also includes changes previously mentioned such as the external modelling texture improvements and also modelling of the antennas, winglets and more. Furthermore, the update also includes a range of fixes such as glitches with the TERR/WXR images and other weather radar pattern anomalies.
A YouTube video explaining the newly added FPDS upgrade has also been shared (above), along with a brief overview of the pricing structure for users looking to purchase the new upgrade. Remember, the update itself is free. The discount code for both the FPDS and Extended upgrades can be found in users’ existing order on X-Plane.org.
