Today third-party developers shared news about a relevant aircraft for Microsoft Flight Simulator and released a new airport.
We start with IndiaFoxtEcho and Heatblur, which are jointly working on a rather awesome F-14 Tomcat. The aircraft will enter its third beta phase this week and it's "already at a decent quality level for a commercial release."
All the systems planned for the initial release are in place and most of the bugs have been fixed.
That being said, the developers are still squeezing in a couple of additional features and some "fun Easter eggs," on top of remastering all the textures to optimize them for Microsoft Flight Simulator's engine
A release date has not been announced just yet, but today we get the confirmation that the F-14 will also launch on Xbox, albeit it won't have the custom radar module.
You can enjoy the new images below.
Moving on to the release, Flight Sim Development Group launched its Sylt Airport (EDXW) in the Nordfriesland district, Germany.
It's available on the developer's own store for €15,99
