Developer VSKYLABS has revealed via their Facebook Page that they will be rolling out updates for their Tecnam P2006T for X-Plane.
The Tecnam P2006T is an Italian twin-engine, high winged aircraft. Although powered by piston engines, the aircraft is capable of taking 4 people over 800 miles at nearly 180mph.
The updates to the current aircraft will include hiding the Avitab by default, revamped lighting and an evaluation of the current airfoil and performance in version 11.30+. To see a full list of updated features, take a look at the update log below.
VSKYLABS explain that the updates will be staggered due to the overall complexity of the process. The analogue variant will be the first to receive the update followed by the G1000 model. The coming updates will not be pushed to the aircraft using an auto-installer this time around but the team will be looking to deliver an auto-updater within the upcoming improvements. VSKYLABS have been vague with specific dates of releases, but April 2019 has been mentioned for the analogue model update.
Update Feature List
- Avitab appears hidden by default

If you don’t yet currently own the Tecnam P2006T, you can purchase the aircraft from the VSKYLABS website at the cost of $28.50. All subsequent updates to the aircraft will be at no extra cost.
