We started the week with the release of World Update 21: Australia! Claim this FREE update from the in-sim Marketplace to enjoy dozens of new bespoke landmarks, airports, and updated TIN cities throughout the Land Down Under.
To coincide with the release of World Update 21, we also launched the latest in our Local Legends series of aircraft, the CAC Boomerang! This classic warbird of WWII vintage is the only fighter aircraft designed and manufactured in its entirety in Australia. You can buy it from the Marketplace now for USD $14.99.
Regarding Aircraft & Avionics Update 04, the team is currently working on some final necessary polish for four of the aircraft included with this update: the Antonov An-2, ATR 42/72-600, Latécoère 631, and Savoia-Marchetti S.55/S.55X. We will get these updated planes into your hands as soon as they’re ready. Meanwhile, the updated Fokker F.VII is available now. This was the first aircraft to fly across the Pacific Ocean from the USA to Australia, so to celebrate the release of World Update 21, we are making the Fokker F.VII FREE from the in-sim Marketplace for a limited time only! Claim it from the Marketplace before May 12th at 8am PT and this historic aircraft is yours to keep forever!
We also recently premiered a new YouTube video showcasing the Fokker F.VII “Southern Cross” on its historic flight to Australia piloted by Sir Charles Kingsford Smith and his crew. Check it out here:
