not fixed as of SU4 Dec 2025. Skyvan cannot be flown due to left pump draining fuel tanks. Had high hopes for the December 2025 patch, but no… Always thrilled when seeing the patch notes, finding out what has been given priority over making sure all your planes at least get in the air.

Don’t let the Skyvan die!! We’ll keep it’s memory alive until we get a bug log or something like that hopefully

Yup, port engine / fuel system is malfunctioning in SU4 v1.6.34.0, making this aircraft virtually impossible to fly, as effectively one has to take off & fly with only one engine.

When is this actually going to get fixed. Does anyone from Microsoft actually realise that this aircraft is AOG right now.

Report has been bug-logged 2 days ago what means devs have replicated the issue. So hopefully a fix will come in a next Sim Update.

Still a problem

The situation with this aircraft (and others in the Aviator Edition) is absolutely absurd. We paid significantly more to have planes that we simply cannot use. However, what is truly disappointing is the total lack of communication from Microsoft.
If—as we have now realized—these planes cannot be fixed because they’ve been abandoned by the developer, they should be removed from the game and we should be compensated with a couple of free DLCs or some in-game currency.
Remaining silent like this is not only an admission of guilt, but a total slap in the face to those of us who were ‘stupid’ enough to trust them.

Yeah, I thought these would be the most premium planes – not “pay extra for the worst and most ignored planes in the entire sim”. Some work ok but I definitely feel mislead because it mentions Career here multiple times, including specifically in the “Aviator Edition” section, and yet not a single Aviator plane works in Career mode (where I spend almost all my time).

Yeah, that would smooth things over with me for sure. I feel a bit cheated due to this and the Antonov

the skyvan fuel issue still alive! I what a compensation I paid for it!

It should take Claude about 20 seconds to find the issue, fix it and update the package.

Some years ago we could say the devs were too busy, today it is just lazyness.

Can confirm, still a problem!! Guys, I paid for it!

Please Microsoft, please fix this plane. I feel like it wouldn’t take very long and I miss it terribly

Still not fixed. And we paid for it…

Paid up customers are clearly not a priority. It’s been too long now.
