iniBuilds has recently updated its Lockheed L-1011 TriStar Airliner to V1.0.1 for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
Version 1.0.1 delivers many refinements, focusing on stability and improving the overall experience across the aircraft. This update brings many fixes to core systems, including tweaks to autopilot and flight director behaviour, enhancements to VNAV/PMS performance, ILS logic, and engine and pressurisation modelling. Various cockpit interactions and annunciations have also been addressed, while systems such as spoilers, autobrake, and environmental controls now behave more consistently.
On the visual front, the update introduces several subtle but welcome improvements. Cockpit and exterior details have been refined with adjustments to animations, lighting, and weathering, as well as multiple livery corrections. New interactive touches, such as operable lavatory doors, hope to add an extra layer of immersion.
Elsewhere, the PFB has received further attention with improved brightness control, more accurate takeoff data handling, and expanded functionality. The soundscape has also been polished, with corrected V1 and Rotate callouts.
You can download the iniBuilds TriStar Airliner V1.0.1 update through the MSFS24 Marketplace now.
