It's been quite awhile now and I wait eagerly for the A2A Piper Cherokee and Comanche and the Beechcraft VTail Bonanza. Anyone heard any news?

I was just at their forums this morning - nothing.  I know they had been doing some US military contract work but no clue what they are up to now.

Like Ryan said, no news, even from Scott, his last post is from last November, no communication from other dev as well. it's very weird

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for A2A, two years and counting. 

 

 

 

Unfortunately, I've reluctantly come to the conclusion that A2A is not currently active in pursuing development on the recreational side.

It's been well over three years since they introduced a new aircraft for FSX or P3D. It's over 18 months since their last major development update. It's over a year since they released a patch or update for their FSX or P3D offerings. In the last few months even the vague "working on it" posts on the forums have ended, despite a lot of discussion among their customer base.

I hope that the reality is that they are so busy on their commercial/military training side that they are focusing on that. They always seemed like nice people. I wish them the best. It would be nice though if they at least told us they had moved on.

Either a big contract outside of recreational sim or something bad happened.

Scott went from this :

We just talked about that this morning. While we traditionally keep our cards close to our chest, we think this Comanche 250 may be different especially considering how quiet we've been. So the thinking is, sharing more of what we go through to Accu-Sim an airplane. Taking cameras more on my Comanche and posting dev updates. Is this what you were referring too? BTW I do miss making these vids. It was always a lot of fun.

To nothing for 5 month

Yes, I think they have moved on from Recreational Simming. 

 

 

 

Since we're discussing the possible demise of a highly respected flight sim developer, anyone have inside information regarding the disappearance of Eaglesoft Development Corp ?  Like A2A they were once  one of the best developers for business jets in P3D and FSX.  Man, that Citation X was "something else" ! !

Has anyone been asking the question on the A2A forums?

Only a 22-page-long thread that was started 6 months ago...

It could just be that as per Scott's comment, that until they have made a breakthrough with developing for MSFS, there's nothing for them to say/show.
Alternatively, there's a large number of other reasons why there's no new news from them.

AMD Ryzen 5800X3D; MSI RTX 3080 Ti ; 32GB Corsair 3200 MHz; ASUS VG35VQ 35" (3440 x 1440)
Fulcrum One yoke; Thrustmaster TCA Captain Pack Airbus edition; MFG Crosswind rudder pedals; miniCockpit FCU; CPFlight MCP 737; Logitech FIP x3; TrackIR

MSFS; Fenix A320; A2A PA-24; HPG H145; PMDG 737-600; AIG; RealTraffic; PSXTraffic; FSiPanel; REX AccuSeason Adv; FSDT GSX Pro; FS2Crew RAAS Pro; FS-ATC Chatter

Sometimes no news is good news.  Except that a2a typically does little dev updates here and there.

I believe they developed a Beechcraft T-6 Texan II simulation for the USAF.  That's a turboprop trainer aircraft.

There was some thought to releasing it for civilian use but that hasn't happened.

I'm sure there's more that I do not know about.  You can bet if A2A made it for the military, it's a very detailed simulation and it likely took them many many hours to develop it and many more with continuing maintenance.  My guess is A2A are letting things stew as to MSFS until the potatoes are well done.

Well Milviz are gone too. But they basically told everyone.

They've moved on to military contracts.

A2A probably gone the same way.

What are you talking about? Milviz is alive and well with multiple aircraft in the sim, and multiple aircraft on the slate to come....
