Here is an update with more details in the new VR coming in XP 12.4.3 https://www.x-plane.com/2026/04/x-plane-12-4-3-early-preview-lets-talk-vr/

That would be interesting indeed. I wouldn't mind seeing some of my old aircraft in Dos like to F-19 and F 117. Didn't have the horsepower to run those back then. 🤣 But what I am most thrill about the re writing of VR which didn't get as much attention since come to XP12 and would like to see how they are able to improve performances. I like the idea that they bringing it to the Apple Vision Pro, gives me idea's about where I might like to go in the future. 😁

Possible other priorities may had gotten in the way. Remember, they roll out feature not in the order in which they are ready. Plus at the time 12.1 was not multithreading, things for flight modeling may have change since then and we might get to see those change through the upcoming road map. Well will have to see. 😊

Gust winds is not a singular function of just weather, Austin corrects gust winds by making adjustment to the flight model in X-plane use of first principle physics as well. He always trying to improve things in the flight model even if you think he is done. He is always discovering something else which what makes these update so interesting and something to look forward to.

😆 Well it's about time that somebody wants to take the time to properly demonstrate the use of these great tools that we all want the developers to continue support for X-plane.

The tutorial covers a lot of things that I was not aware of nor seen in this aircraft. What's nice is they are planning an expert tutorial for those who want have a deeper understanding of specific feature of the aircraft. It also mention a SELCAL feature coming later with a tutorial on that procedure. Looking forward.

I was enjoyable to watch. It was very objective and to the point. Nothing to the distract from the mission. All points were covered nicely.

Its worth it, the developer put a lot of work into it. He also has a lot of helipads as well. It very nice.

Like other mention of the Hawaiian Scenery I also have the Seychelles and the Society Islands I think worth mentioning. One freeware I like to recommend is the EPGD Lech Walesa Airport. The developer put his heart a soul in the at one.

If you are looking for an alternative GHD, there is a freeware solution that has been out for some time called SEGS that has other addon the work together with Simload manager. https://forums.x-plane.org/files/file/62296-simple-ground-equipment-services-low-tech-services/?page=45&tab=comments#comment-412128 https://forums.x-plane.org/files/file/93858-simload-manager-realistic-pax-cargo-fuel-ground-operations/?tab=reviews&sort=newest#review-135692 However there is a new payware solution that replaces GHD and has the potential of being the next GSX of X plane called Realops. This is a brand new addon to X-plane that has a growing following with new liveries and presets being made since its release back in February. It will do all of what GHD does and eventually SAM's for controlling gates. Use the link below for more info and use the links within that site that will take you to their discord. There you will find the latest info on any bug fix's, liveries and presets. https://realops-simulations.com/#Features

Great video and interesting. Really explains the experience of what makes X plane so attractive, so well and has a lot of folk in the comment section convice.

lol You did the right thing. They need to hear more from our voices of what we want as a community and not let the only one's be heard by the other sim. BTW I finish mind a few days ago. 😊

This stream will show what the new EFB will look like that will come to X plane. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikJv2TWrbI0&t=1618s

lol no problem. I am glad the see the news that what was in the stream will be coming to X-plane. What I like is the new feature that will update the FMS Navigraph data through the datalink with the latest. I think that was cool what they demo.

Never mind, I found the news in their Toliss Simulation Unofficial Discord site.

Is there a link to this news?

It appears their discord is very active so there is hope.

It appears that way for now but this addon has potential to be something more. Lets hope the developer gets the support he needs to continue to make it even better.

Your right!!!! However I like his enthusiasm that is very promising. It seems like he's already planning in a lot of improvements from the feature request already. Hopefully he will learn not to give out dates until it is ready for release.

This look very interesting. Just reading from this link below appears to be X-plane version of GSX. https://realops-simulations.com/#Features

I think from this developer, it is little different. AirfoilLabs is filling a void at that time that seem to never get fill by a freeware solution from Levelup but offer a compelling aircraft that many will pay for the privilege of having. The market for the MAX has been starve for this aircraft since the first announcement from Levelup back in the early days of Xplane 11. AirfoilLabs know how bad everyone is looking forward to this aircraft and have been very transparent with their progress and updates and I think they coming along as you can see, very nicely. I'm sure they know how important to make good on getting these aircraft release. In spite of the fact the Level up has not release their version of the MAX, they still are planning to do one but it's only a question of when after the release of their V2 of their Boeing 737 variants. One thing I can say, at least we have some idea that one is coming from AirfoilLabs

Well what a nice surprise. Christmas has come a little early today even if its beta. 😁

This was use with the latest version of the Toliss A319 that was just updated with weather radar feature.

Here is another excellent video demonstration of the function and the use of weather radar when planning to divert around storms at night.
