Aerosoft Twin Otter baby!

“Someone” did then sent the changes to Aerosoft and, well… you know the rest.

I have recently come back to the Twin Otter and I have all of the updates installed. I can no longer see any vertical guidance for RNAV approaches in the HSI, even though the LNAV guidance is working and the aircraft does actually start to descend on the vertical path correctly.

Vertical guidance indicators are working fine for ILS approaches.

Anyone else experiencing this or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Now this aircraft belongs to nowhere in MSFS. Neither MSFS2020 nor 2024, it simply disappeared!

What? It’s on the list for 2024!

Not sure where you got that from, it’s on the list for MSFS2024.

Comes with Standard Edition

Oh, I realized and admitted that my eyes are worse than I thought. :laughing: Many thanks guys for pointing out! My eyes stopped at DHC-2 Beaver and skipped this one from the list! :joy:

Cool that this’ll be default in 2024.

Which means it’ll be 2024 from the ground up.

It’s very unlikely that anyone will develop another, especially for a previous sim, so… where does that leave a 2020 user who fancies one?

I’ll assume it won’t be backwards compatible.

Since it’s now Microsoft property I guess they could offer it to 2020 users as payware. We’ll have to wait and see.

Msfs 2020 will be finished within the next year or so and besides…

Once you see all of your fellow msfs forum friends enjoying the next best thing and posting amazing screenshots and your fav yt influencers doing the same…

Give it a good solid month at resisting the force and…

You will be joining the force in no time master Luke :rofl::rofl:

you’ll get MSFS2024, that’s how

Does anyone know whether this will be only the float version or wheel and skids also?

And will it have proper round instruments?

They’d be foolish to only release a float version - but it is the only version we’ve seen so far. So who knows.

But given that the Twin Otter would be useful for multiple career paths in '24, I can’t imagine they would only include the float version since that would limit its overall usefulness in the sim.

It could only be an amphib version. :wink:

I hope not, I want skis too!

I don’t see any reason why they would secure the assets from Aerosoft then only release the one version of the aircraft.

This should settle the landing gear question…

Screenshot taken from a recent YouTube video showing FS2024:

Presumably ski’s will be included as well.

Ahh yes, I saw that and forgot about it.

I’m so excited honestly. As I’ve said in the past I see a Twin Otter circle over my house daily all summer long so it’ll be nice to finally fly one in the sim.

And dare we even hope they will have glass on them?

I was about to ask the very same thing :rofl:

That instrument glass story was hilarious on Aerosoft forums :laughing:

What was it? I always assumed the non circular things and lack of glass and so on were “optimisations” to make it easy on Xbox which they never released on.
