PILOT'S is proud to announce the release of their very first scenery add-on for MSFS, Cedar Key Airport (KCDK), which is officially on record for having the shortest paved public runway in the state of Florida. If you have never been to this part of the world, you are in for a real treat! Cedar Key has some of the most stunning sunrises and sunsets you have ever seen, as you can see on the screenshots below. Cedar Key Airport, officially known as George T. Lewis Airport, is uniquely located on a small island at Daughtry Bajou, on Florida’s North-Eastern G…

After many months of continued development and refinement of the basic Dash 7 delivered to PILOT'S by SWS, PILOT'S is very pleased to announce that the release of the Dash 7 for MSFS is now imminent. If all goes according to plan and there are no major last minute hiccups, the Dash 7 will be available at the PILOT'S Web Store this coming weekend. The Dash 7 will feature various real world liveries as well as optional equipment, such as the Working Title GNS 530.

Hi Guys, With the Dash-7 out, would someone help me out, and check how stable the autopilot is under x8 sim rate (time acceleration)? Under the 737, PMDG heavily limits the max bank, pitch, yaw angles, and throttle changes, so the autopilot remains stable, and won't start a deadly oscillation, or dive to the ground.

As far as I can tell, SimWorks Studios have completed their involvement and the Dash 7 is now with PILOTS. There has been no news lately, and the Dash 7 is an aircraft I'm looking forward to. Is there a release date, or is work still being done on the model ?

Just a short note to let everyone know that we have finally released Alicante Airport for MSFS! This scenery features extensive custom mesh, we'll post more details and screenshots here over the weekend.
