Microsoft Flight Simulator - AAU_02 and City Update France on approach

Aircraft & Avionics Update 02 (AAU_02) in Beta Testing

Thank you to all the diligent testers who participated in the public beta testing of the Aircraft & Avionics Update 02 (AAU_02). Your feedback and error reports were invaluable to the development team in preparing for the planned release on June 23rd. By the way, a new beta build (1.33.7.0) has recently been made available to testers. If you missed the release notes for this build, you can find them in the official forums.

City Update 02: France Coming on June 19th

But the AAU_02 is not the only highlight in June! As seen in the current development roadmap, the City Update 02: France (CU_02) will also be released on June 19th. This update will add new photogrammetry for various French cities such as Amiens, Angers, Nantes, Nimes, and Reims. Additionally, we can look forward to the custom-made LFPB Paris Le Bourget airport, which is the venue for the upcoming Paris Air Show.

Local Legend 9: Latécoère 631 released simultaneously

Along with the CU_02, the Local Legend 9: Latécoère 631 is also being released. This French flying boat once held the world record for the longest non-stop passenger service. Today, there are no surviving models, not even in museums. Therefore, the virtual representation of this aircraft in the Microsoft Flight Simulator is a true historical preservation.

Microsoft Flight Simulator team attending FlightSimExpo 2023

Last but not least, the team behind the Microsoft Flight Simulator will be attending the FlightSimExpo 2023 starting on June 23. More information about their participation in the expo will be shared in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!

In short, June will be an exciting month for all Microsoft Flight Simulator fans! With the AAU_02, the France City Update, and participation in the FlightSimExpo, there is a lot to look forward to. Don't forget to secure the updates and have fun exploring the new content and improvements in the flight simulator!
