Many moons ago… when flying to Oshkosh, for the fly-in… I stopped in Warsaw, Indiana for fuel (there’s a story about my gear not coming down, and why I ended up spending hours there, but that’s for another time)…

Guess with the Beta pics we are probably getting close. Will this be available in the marketplace?

Almost can’t wait. I did not get that other large Turboprop with glass cockpit. The Shorts with it’s analog cockpit is it for me.

Really, really looking forward to it.

Old swede, there really are such ugly planes, it’s unbelievable - hahahaha :slight_smile: :rofl: :beers:

Would have been great to interview the designer and ask things like “what inspired you? A shoebox?”, “do you have any other ugly designs?”, “is this the ugliest plane ever?”, “you thought it wouldn’t fly didn’t you?”…

Having these weird planes from great dev teams like Blackbox is what makes MSFS so interesting and unique.

Now… the shape of the Hondajet was inspired by a pair of Salvatore Ferragamo’s high heels (no joke).

Time Air of Lethbridge Canada was the launch customer of SD330. It be nice to see that as one of the liveries


This is awesome!

It’ll be great to see N334AC back in the air again! This one’s an instabuy for me. Had friends who flew for ACC back in the day and I came close to working for them as well.

Though, it was really terrible what happened to the crew/this aircraft back in May of 2017, and worse, judging by the ASN/NTSB report, it was completely avoidable.

If you haven’t read it…

I flew the 330 on today’s Community Fly-In.

Even with all the multiplayer planes, live weather and FSLTL, I had excellent performance.

It’s coming along!

Nice pic. I’d wish I’d be in the beta as well. Cannot wait for it to release. I am so looking forward to this plane.

Me too, I cannot wait :sweat_smile: I have already search some manual and documentation about the Short sd3 to make my checklist but found nothing for free. So, I will wait the manual from BlackBox when I will buy the plane.
I found this video about engine start procedure :
