New trailer is live now!
Status update
We’re glad to see the interest of the community in our work, and, obviously, you would like to know when FSLTL will be released. Truth is: no one on the developer team wishes to work on this mod till the end of the world and we’re first who want to see FSLTL up and running as soon as possible. Or name a precise release date. Unfortunately, we can’t do it as we depend on original models authors. Good news are: almost everyone participating in the FLAi package is granted their permissions for using their work in this mod. However, we’re still waiting for any response from AIG and FAIB which remain silent despite our and FLAi’s numerous inquiries. These are inevitable delays happening to any project involving more than five people to cooperate.
Bright side is: we have more time to fix and polish everything. All AI aircraft now feature dynamic lighting instead of baked, animations, jetway connection and on certain aircraft, brand new handcrafted sounds! With Asobo Live AI we have achieved perfect model/livery matching, proper ATC interaction and correct nameplates.
Now we’re working on the installer that will deploy and update desired packages with ease.
Also there’s a partnership coming soon you will be very happy to see.

FAQ
Where can I buy FSLTL?
This question was asked a frightening number of times. You can’t. FSLTL is still in development and will be released for free. We don’t accept donations at this time. Never pay for this product.
I Know there is a closed alpha-test. How can I become a tester?
For now we have enough testers. If this changes, we’ll make an announcement.
You planned to release an unfinished public beta with a limited amount of planes.
Yes, we did, and it’s still our plan. Problem is, we’ve started with most popular planes (sounds like common sense, huh?), lots of them are masterfully created by FAIB(Erez Werber), who is still unreachable. So we really, really hope he will contact us before we finish our installer app, otherwise this will be a questionable beta, without A319, A320, B738, B739 etc.
What’s about proper parkings/airline-specific gates etc?
We’re working on it.
What’s the point of your Discord if there is no public text channel?
Fresh screenshots and the only place for the official updates! We’ve closed the public text channel because there is not much to discuss as FSLTL is not released yet and the moderation of off-topic multi-hundred channel consumes time that can be used for the actual work. Dull but efficient.
You’ve mentioned earlier that there is a way to contribute, how?
The FLAi package is enormous but the real world is much bigger. Many aircraft lack regional airlines liveries, some of the existing are needed to be remade. If you’re an artist capable of doing so, contact @SofieGrozovski on Discord (use the ticket tool).
How else can I help?
Vote for the AI improvements. Asobo’s online AI improved dramatically in this month, but there are still a lot of issues that should be fixed.
VATSIM/Multiplayer?
Yes.
We wish you great holidays, stay tuned, more great news are coming soon!
UPD: AIG has responded (CLOSED).
UPD2: There was a misunderstanding, details here.
