If the inibuilds A320 is the thing that is holding up SU15, then Asobo need to take it out of the update again. Release the A320 when it's fully ready for prime time.

I could not agree more. What is the necessity of another Airbus in the sim? I know some of those solely on X-Box will enjoy this and are probably looking forward to it but please do not hold up a whole sim update that has developers in a holding pattern for one aircraft. I am starting to think iniBuilds bit off more than they can chew -- the optimization requirements on a default aircraft are probably pretty demanding and we all know optimization is not their strength. 

We won't see the Duke before April 30th due to SU15, Will we ever know, what was the true cause of it?

With the A320, fixes on the A300, X-plane fixes, starting dev on the A350, plus all the plane that might be included in MSFS2024 from them.

That's a lot to chew

The Airbus.

This is the most likely explanation, yes. I think it was wrong to include that in the beta.

If this is actually the case, then I agree with Cpt. Piett, it should have been branched off as its own update -- like Dune -- and released when it was ready.

But was it confirmed, by INI? denied by them or radio silence?

The last beta build we got had nothing to do with the A320

It was also the shortest changelog in history, basically a one-liner about "memory optimization improvements" and some Reno Airrace stuff. There was no indication that SU15 would be delayed again until they reintroduced the Airbus a few days before the scheduled release.

It is bizarre that it’s being held back, this has been the smoothest, most issue free SU beta I’ve been part of and it’s working flawlessly for me.  I haven’t touched the A320neo so I can’t comment on that.   

Hopefully SU15 doesn’t leak past April 30th…I’m gearing up for a cross-Canada flight in one of the Dukes (haven’t decided which yet).  Spring is a perfect time as the snow is mostly gone so there is more scenery to look at, but the weather isn’t warm enough IRL to make me feel guilty about sitting inside flying 😀 

FINALLY that SU-15 update got a release date 🙂 30th of April.

Soon after the glorious Black Square Duke should have it´s hangar roll-out. Which will be, without doubt, the most important day of flight simming history. Finally a plane in HotStart Challenger quality and depth and even beyond - because the Challenger only hat these boring generic screens (G1000, G3000, Honeywell Primus - they all look and feel the same) but our Dukes get glorious Steam gauges.

It's a tentative release date 😉

Yes, not exactly the most confidence-inspiring choice of words...

Release today, of the Duke? The week of the 8th of april nears its end. And friday is always a nice day to release something.

No release date is unknown . All we know it will be released  after April 30 (release of SU15)
