The development team for Microsoft Flight Simulator has released another weekly development update.
They begin this episode with the announcement that Sim Update 3 is almost ready to go live in the coming week, and they will be having another Live Dev Q&A next Wednesday (10.03) at 1830z. On Monday the 8th, at 2000z, Pilot Emilie will be hosting the MSFS Twitch channel. Also note, there will be a community fly-in, on Friday the 12th, from Calgary to Vancouver. All these opportunities allow the community to keep up with developments with Microsoft Flight Simulator’s continuing growth.
As the tables below indicate, Sim Update 3 will hopefully make some improvements or fixes to a number of issues. For example, problems with the Garmin G1000 autopilot and live weather inaccuracies. Also, there should be a fix for the glow seen around aircraft and objects that appeared after the last update.
