Timeline changes maybe?

@django1489 Hello there. I've not had a reply yet on this. As soon as I get one and I can pass the information on, rest assured, Will. Sorry for the delay on this one.
@Voice-of-Reason hello there. Sorry for keeping you bothered on this. While its nagging to being kept asked repeatedly, at the same time you must understand that its the top stuff from the dev that keeps us users so excited. Thanks again, looking forward to. And best wishes.

@django1489 That's the nicest nagging I've probably ever received
I'm glad you're so excited, and I apologize that this one has particularly dragged on from when I announced it. It's just been a number of items on the critical path that have conspired to cause the delays, but we're on the final stretch now. You can expect a general development update on all my projects on the Just Flight homepage within the next week or two. That's when we plan to release the Caravan manual, and new screenshots. -

@django1489 Not a problem and understandable. Nag away

Question. In one of the recent BlackSquare manuals, I saw a photo of a "Black Square Caravan Professional" as - among other Black Square aircraft, mentioned as "also available".
I am wondering if this Caravan is anywhere near release? I own the MSFS 2020 version but somehow did not spend much time in it, I think I did a flight or two and that was it. Nevertheless, I sure will buy the new, Professional version, and will fly the heck out of it hauling cargo.
Can we expect this aircraft in the near future, please? Or is it not the next-in-line BS product?

@kityatyi It will be next, and I am sending the latest build to beta testers as we speak! I'm glad you're excited for the aircraft, but I'm also sorry that there has been such a delay from when it was announced. It's just been a number of factors conspiring against the timeline, but it's finally come together in the last week. You can expect the In-Development page, preview manual, and a news update next week. In the meantime, please let me know if you have any questions, and I'm always happy to answer!

Thanks for the heads up Nick. A bunch of us are really excited about it! Can't wait! Have a good weekend.

They have gotten me into trying those categories for which i was never interested earlier like for eg GA. I am loving the baron that i already have. But the request is would it not be possible to include wear and tear like landing gear damage in your models? Makes it all the more challenging and fun.

@SadBucket perhaps beta testers will upload some preview videos on YouTube?

@Black-Square I absolutely love the fact that a developer does not bite my head off for asking about a release. Try it at certain forums, and you're a dead man walking.
Thank you for the update, Nick, it really made my day! I look forward to the Caravan, it is exactly the missing link in the chain in my virtual ops, haha! Short haul, small-scale cargo flying!
I watched this video (accident case study) about a year ago and since then I've been wanting to fly a Caravan. I already owned the "old" Black Square one but didn't want to go back to MSFS 2020 so I killed the flame in me but deep inside I hoped a new Caravan would suface. And it will! How cool is that!
So yeah, cargo feeder flights like crazy, in the US and of course, out of my native country, Hungary, too! Ontario->Visalia, Ontario->Santa Barbara, Salt Lake City->Burley, etc.
I have no specific question because I know it will be awesome given the fact we're talking about a Black Square product. If there is one thing I'd love to know is whether an option will exist to load cargo (perhaps visble goods, boxes pallets)? But even if this is not supposed to be revelead just yet, we'll find out in due course anyway.
Best,
Zsolt
