Blackbird Simulations – Cessna 310R v2.1.1

v2.1.0:
– Fix crash of panel instruments when starting in MSFS 2024
– MSFS 2024 does not currently support linkage of ATC ID to individual livery. Therefore MSFS 2024 aircraft save/restore and error status is same for all liveries, as ATC ID is ignored

– Fix failure of Transponder to power on:
– For best results, have Avionics switch off when turning on Battery Master
– Rarely, if the transponder still fails to power on, user should restart the flight
– Cold and dark, Transponder always powers on in STBY

v2.0.8:
– Fix crash of panel instruments when starting in MSFS 2024
– MSFS 2024 does not currently support linkage of ATC ID to individual livery. Therefore aircraft save/restore and error status is same for all liveries
– Fix failure of Transponder to power on. Transponder always starts in STBY

v2.0.7:
– Rebuild with non-debug WASM and new SDK update

v2.0.6:
– MSFS 2024 compatibility fixes so product can be used on that platform
– Remove invisible spoiler from aircraft (no longer needed)
– Known issue in MSFS 2024: Sometimes unable to hide the yoke, in this case a flight restart is needed

It’s been a long time coming, but as the saying goes: Good things come to those that wait!

We have a long history with the 310, with very well known and widely respected versions released over the past decade for previous simulation platforms. However, with the increased freedom available to us within Microsoft Flight Simulator, we’ve chosen to take the longer (and more rewarding) path of starting fresh. Regardless of whether or not you’ve experienced one of our previous versions of this lovely aircraft, you’re in for a surprise!

Although this release builds on our long experience with this aircraft, it’s not a port in any way, shape, or form – from the ground up, we’ve seized every opportunity to present a completely fresh and ground breaking release. From the beautiful 4K/8K textures, an insanely detailed model, an engaging feature set that rewards both casual flying as well as aircraft ownership, to systems depth that rivals the deepest study level simulations, our 310R ensures an immersive piloting experience that is truly top-class.
Owning, renting, or just a joyride?

Do you want the responsibilities of owning your own aircraft, taking care to fly it correctly, recognizing that everything you do has potential consequences? Or would you rather recreate the experience of a rental or a club aircraft, where it’s a necessity to check things over carefully before your flight – there’s no telling what might have been turned on, or off? Or would you prefer the ease of sliding behind the yoke of a perfectly pristine aircraft, engines purring away, ready to leap into the air at your command?

Regardless of your choice, we’ve created the perfect aircraft for you!
