Just Flight has recently shared a development update for their upcoming Fokker F70/100 Professional for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Since the last update, Just Flight have been busy implementing the rest of the basic aircraft systems such as the airbrake, lift dumpers and the external cockpit lighting, including artwork for the Fokker F100’s LCD backlights. They have also been working on the Flight Warning System, which monitors normal and abnormal situations and displays various memos, alerts, messages and procedures on the MFDUs.
The team have also been doing in-depth testing with their expert team of F100 pilots and engineers of the Fokker F100’s autopilot system and FMS, testing an endless number of scenarios to ensure everything works in all areas.
Once all the systems on the F100 stabilise, the team will be turning their attention to the F70, which will require changes to the cockpit panels and tweaks to the flight models to account for the aircraft’s shorter size, lower weights and slightly different engine performance.
And lastly, the team mentioned that next month will be the integration of sounds from Sim Acoustics, and they will be sharing videos once everything is in place.
There is still no release date confirmed for the Just Flight Fokker F70/100 Professional for Microsoft Flight Simulator as of yet, but make sure to stay tuned to FSElite for further updates.
