The conversation probably went like this:
Dev team: We still have a few very very minors issue, but we could still release on time and patch it in 2 weeks as the issues are tiny and will not effect most people
Management: Have you seen how toxic and entitled and over the top the MS forums are ? Unless the aircraft is 100% correct with zero flaws whatsoever on it’s very first release it will create a furore. We are going to delay it.
" how toxic and entitled and over the top the MS forums are ?
Spot on
I am big fan of old propeller planes but not only, a few weeks ago
i was in the Technik Museum in Sinsheim (Germany)
there you have old airplanes, from all eras, even the Concorde and the Tupolev Tu-144 !
Many of these Oldtimers you can enter and look at the cockpit and everything else.
Fascinating!
I only fly in VR and can’t wait to go virtually through the Junkers JU 52 
EDIT: Two Junkers Ju 52/3m are on display in the aircraft collection of the Technik Museum Sinsheim. One wears a military camouflage paint scheme, such as was used in Russia during the Battle of Stalingrad. The second aircraft has a paint scheme that was common on Lufthansa passenger aircraft.
Is the latest update for this plan to release on the 9th of September?
No, it has been pushed back a “couple of weeks”
I dont understand how a day or 2 before release it suddenly needs 2-3 weeks of bug fixing? Like that’s a lot of fixing!! To only come to this conclusion at the 11th hour is quite a thing. There must be a huge amount wrong.
I like that they are fixing things rather than rushing out a unpolished product. If it came out with bugs the forums would be lit up with questions of ‘why release it in such a state, just delay it’. The devs can’t win in that regard.
But I do feel it was weird that the Q&A was canceled, Ju-52 delayed, and a bunch of marketplace additions rumored the next day. I hope they aren’t just rushing things to the marketplace to compensate as it seems things are off the rails a little.
I think the world update was fine, there will always be a few bugs, but the night lighting probably should have been caught. What bothers me was the pitiful list of bug fixes that came with it - I’ve seen longer patch notes from a month of work from 1-3 people indi dev teams…

■■■■■■ - was hoping…
Yes exactly. Long live the Viking Kittens.
End of this month: September 28 (new announcement).
Technically, they said “a few weeks” which in my book is potentially more than a “couple” of weeks. Cue another furore on 23 September when it doesn’t appear and those that don’t read things closely begin threatening legal action.
Cam you show me a source?
Here ya go
Is this going to be a freebie when released? I doubt it. I’m waiting for helicopters.
Why would this be a freebie? No, it’s cheap though, only $15 US.
**It will/may be cheap - let’s not count chickens before they hatch…
I am actually more curious what Neofly will charge me to add it to my hanger and put it online as a freight hauler
