Wow! Quite a leap in complexity, but very exciting. Looking forward to seeing how this one goes. For anyone not familiar with CAS: Their J-3 Cub is a top tier addon that I recommend to anyone.

Looking to seeing the final product, and hoping your team will tackle a Nimrod next. :slight_smile:

I’ve wanted a Comet in MSFS for years now so this is good news. Quite a leap up from a Cub to Comet! The Cub is a pretty awesome plane though so looking forward to the Comet.

There is one available for 2020 a conversion from FSX


Looks amazing but any news on the Cub and MSFS2024?

Hi,
A 2024 native version will be available to Contrail and SimMarket customers very soon. There’s a handful of minor bugs which need to be considered by users in 2024.
Cheers.

When the comet will be avaible..can u estimate time😍

No estimates just yet, there’s a lot to do. Still a 1 developer project but making steady progress.

Just giving this thread a bump because the Comet is a beautiful historic plane and I am so happy that a great developer like CAS is working on it. The J-3 Cub is a top favorite of mine, so I have high expectations.

Any updates or rough rough timelines? Late Spring, Summer, Fall?

Work as of recent has been regarding cockpit interactions and a custom electrical system, which isn’t exactly tangible, so unfortunately no progress photos just yet. Chris is working hard at it though, rest assured.

As for a release date / window, no estimate yet.

Just to press you a tiny amount, are we expecting a 2025 release or is 2026 likely?

Not likely anytime before 2027 just based on the info the dev has given as this is a single dev developing this plane with still giving support it their other plane as well so maybe 2027 to 2028 but we wont know for sure until the dev says so =)

Hi,
We’re hopeful for a 2025 release, but can’t offer anything firm at this date. As soon as we have any idea, a statement will be made.
Many thanks!

Superb, thank you. Nice to even have a rough idea. Really looking forward to hearing more about it!

Any updates on this? Is it still being worked on? This would be one of the most amazing aircraft for the sim.

Agreed – would love to see an update on this! The Comet would be hobby-changing for me.

Hi,

Development is still ongoing. Here’s a recent in sim screenshot of the current work in progress cockpit.

Wow. I am so in for this!
