Timeline changes maybe?

@Black-Square you've mentioned some news would come this week + the preview manual. I'm counting the days (therefore I know there still are way too many days left of the week, haha) and was wondering which day can we expect to grab a preview copy of the manual? I guess I'm quite hyped about this upcoming release.
@kityatyi I never make promises for specific days, mainly because it depends on the Just Flight team's availability too, but I will say that I just finished the last piece of the puzzle, so all that remains is a final proof read and packaging it all up for you
-
Standing by for the download, whenever it becomes accessible. I will then print out and laminate the normal checklists from it at work to be readily available for the day the Caravan releases.
@kityatyi depends on the nbr of people proof reading a 200 + pg manual no? Simultaneously beta testing also going on.

@kityatyi provably not even next week. Proof reading takes some time
@django1489 Everything is all ready to go, I just don't like to rush things. I'm sure this goes without saying, but when I'm planning on releasing a news update with screenshots, the complete store pages, and the manual all at once, there is a lot that needs to be checked over. Much like releasing anything to the public, that last 5% of work at the end is often more like 30-40% of the drudgery. Thanks for your continued excitement. It always makes the slow part at the end a little more enjoyable.

@Black-Square i totally agree with your line of thought. And umpteen respects for being a one man army (as far as my knowledge goes). Good things take time and no rush is a sign of a thorough professional. Thats what i was telling him/her that even a speed-read book takes 30pgs a day for a seasoned reader. When we speak of manuals you cant really speed read. Additionally theres a lot of numerical data in it. We are well aware of the reputation of your work and thats what we love. That should remain of course and then obviously that kind of work takes time.
P.S: that last line of yours was a little misleading lol

@Black-Square Take your time man, you cannot have speed and quality at the same time ... and you spoiled us for so long, we expect quality from you

@Black-Square tbh if anything, as much as I love the details and diving into the manual early, it almost make the wait more of a torture.
Plus pretty sure I already know what to expect lol, it’ll be the quality level of the Baronanza, Starship and Dukes but like a Caravan. Which I’m very hyped for, big fan of stol utility planes and the SWS Kodiak is pretty good but rather lifeless, may or may not cram the turbine Duke into places where that would be way more appropriate because I’d rather fly it. Black Square Caravan? Problem solved.

@Black-Square please do consider making an old-dusty-weathered livery including cockpit and cabin for caravan cargo. Makes a lot of fun in africa
