News! - Aircraft details - King Air 350/350i by AirfoilLabs

 

AirfoilLabs have released a new video and details of their coming King Air 350/350i to X-Plane11. This is the second aircraft for X-Plane from AirfoilLabs after their very wildly received Cessna 172SP Skyhawk v1.70 by Airfoillabs. This the biggest of all the King Air's (The Beech 1900D although based on a King Air is not designated as one) and called the now dropped moniker of Super King Air.

 

This aircraft is still very much a work in progress, but the aircraft is getting there, current notes include.
