A2A Simulations - FS Expo - Aerostar News

Post by Lewis - A2A »

We want to thank Microsoft and the flight sim community for making the Comanche 250 such a big success. It’s our first aircraft built with Accu-Sim 2.0 technology and now we’re using the same physics to develop an Aerostar 600. Like the Comanche, it’s an aircraft we've owned and operated for several years and it’s our passion at A2A to really bring this experience of aircraft ownership to life. A piston twin like the Aerostar feels radically different to fly compared to the Comanche, and our physics engine does a great job of recreating this ‘feel’. It will also allow you to hone your skills as a pilot in completely new ways. We hope to bring you the first Accu-Sim twin later in 2024!

If you are visiting FS Expo this year, keep an eye out for A2A Simulations owner and founder, Scott Gentile, who will be attending. If you do see Scott on the Expo floor then please do say Hello!

Thanks a bunch Lewis. That's my $20 gone down the drain. :(

Just in time to reawaken my interest in FS. 👍

Brilliant news and very glad to see A2A's first twin. Can't wait for this as it's an excellent choice.


Cheers,
Mike

Not my cup of tea, but I still hoping for a C-172 in the future.

Damn, was hoping for something even better than the Comanche, but it seems like its perfection is unbeatable, the 600 on the other hand looks like it was drawn by me when I was 5 years old, huge disappointment :(
(Yes, I know it’s gonna fly great and like the real one but, just no)

That is fantastic news Lewis :D
I have been calling for an A2A piston twin for years; I was worried that we might never see the Aerostar.

I trust the physics engine will provide accurate asymmetric thrust upon single engine failure on take-off. How else could one stay current safely :mrgreen:
The general physics and mechanics of a twin should be interesting. Looking forward to it.

Awesome! I remember when MSFS debuted they did state this would be the first aircraft. Then there was the unfortunate gear up landing but it did state they had captured enough data to complete the project!

Oh this is great news. I adore this plane, ever since you first announced you were going to do it. I was heartbroken when the real plane crashed
and it looked like it wasn't going to be released. Now to hear you're releasing into MSFS makes me a happy chappy once more. :D

Any chance of getting a version of this cockpit? This is my dream twin.
