KLN90B?
-
Any chance we'll see this excellent option that was integrated into the Dukes backported into the TBM?
-
It wasn't something I was planning, because making changes to the hotswapping GPS options in my aircraft is very fickle. I will take your request under advisement. Stranger things have been known to happen :)

Does the Duke solution (via the tablet instead of dashboard switches) work better with the avionics framework? I was wondering if that was one of the changes that would end up coming back to earlier aircraft.

@Black-Square Appreciate you considering it, thanks! I love that weird little GPS, the green glow gets me.

I concur with making the KLN90B available. As much as I love the newer wiz bang glass avionics they tend to actually take your head out of the game since they do all the work for you. More so than the TBM I would absolutely love this in the Bonanza and Baron, a very fitting GPS for the analogue panel era aircraft. BTW I would be willing to pay for this kind of upgrade since it is of so much value and I recognize this would require effort on your part. Maybe a KLN90B upgrade that covers multiple Blacksquare aircraft.

I will absolutely be adding the same GPS combinations that we have in the Dukes to the Baron and Bonanza, but it would be part of a FS2024 remake, as I've spoken of elsewhere. I often regret attempting the ambitious GPS hotswapping that my aircraft have, as it has been the source of an enormous amount of issues as well, most notably the one that had me waiting for SU15 to release the Dukes. However, it's also one of my favorite features as a real world pilot, so I can't imagine having aircraft without the ability to change avionics on the fly. All that to say, it's not easy adding more GPS options, but I will certainly be doing it for the Baron and Bonanza at the very least!

Looking much forward to the KLN90 in the B&B's! (personally not interested in equipment in the TBM 850 that does not belong to it's era)
Overall, can we expect any updates to the TBM and the B&B's soon? We chat'ed a little about some issues some months ago, and you provided some nice code changes for me. After leaving the SU15 beta, my MSFS installation was completely wiped out by the hideous MSFS installer, so to fly these aircrafts again, I either will have to wait for the updates, or go through the code changes again. (I'm not in a hurry though, as I usually don't use my flight-PC in the summer months).
