The developers at Black Square are in the headlines again with a pair of new aircraft coming to Microsoft Flight Simulator. Perhaps best known for their analogue gauge overhauls of the default Beechcraft King Air and Baron, the next project in the pipeline from the team are a pair of Beechcraft Duke variants – one with piston engines and another with turboprop engines. Let’s check out the announcement!
Two Dukes!
Black Square have announced a pair of Beechcraft Duke aircraft intended for Microsoft Flight Simulator and they come packing with a lot of detail both visually and for the systems. The two aircraft are similar with a piston powered version and a turbine powered version being sold separately.
The piston version includes two variants of the 1974 B60 Duke. That is with and without the “Grand Duke” performance package meaning you get to choose between having or not having the winglets, vortex generators, strakes, extra fuel, increased speeds and increased MGTOW of the Grand Duke version.
Both versions have failure modeling, 12-hot swappable radio configurations, pressurization and cabin temperature simulations, custom electrical modeling and more.
You can also go full analogue with just radio navigation or add GPS options including the GTN 750 with support for both PMS50 and TDS GTN 750 plugins.
Both products are listed as coming soon on the Just Flight store.
