As you know Wizzsim has not been updated for a while.
Basically I am getting married which has caused a great deal of stress for both myself and my partner, lets just put it this way it can only happen to us everything that can go wrong has and when I mean everything I mean our wedding planner, our cake maker, the venue, our DJ have all let us down, half the guest's cant come even though we gave a year in advanced notice. We now have just over a month too fix and sort out our wedding from complete disaster.
Getting Married is stressful enough but when everything goes wrong so near to the wedding the stress is almost unbearable
Wizzsim will be updated in due cause but I wanted to explain why and now you know.

IndiaFoxtTecho Details Plans For MSFS 2020 Carriers
Busy weekend dotted by hardware failures (we had a motherboard failure on the computer on which we do MSFS project integration) - luckily local computer stores with good off-the-shelf components and decent prices still exist! The important thing is that nothing was lost in the process. ...so back to development, we have received a number of questions regarding the carrier screen shots we have recently shown - and frankly we think they are overhyped. Just to set the record straight, first: in our opinion the best and most realistic carrier operations environment is by far DCS Supercarrier. Second: there are a lot of limitations at the moment in MSFS so that decent carrier ops simulations cannot be achieved. That being said, we are developing a small fleet of HIGHLY detailed carriers as STATIC objects, just to create a "companion" package for the F-35 and mostly to highlight the differences between the F-35 variants. At the moment we have: America class LHA (meant to be used with the F-35B of course): USS LHA-6 in the China Sea, not far from from the Japanese Coast, close to Nagasaki, Japan. USS LHA-7 off the coast of San Diego, USA Gerald R. Ford class CVN (for the F-35C): USS Gerald R. Ford CVN-78, North of NAS Key West, USA As for the CVN-78, if you are reading this, probably we do not need to add anything else: even setting a 30 knots wind blowing from the bow of the ship (which makes things a little better) it is not a realistic simulation of a carrier landing. Still... it is fun, and we thought that it was a nice addition to the package (with an acceptable development cost). Contrary to other add-ons, with which we do not want to compete (this is basically a fun "side project") the launch and arrest functionality is coded at aircraft level: Currently, if you lower the launch bar on the F-35C and apply full throttle, that will trigger a "virtual catapult" which will send you in the air with a realistic acceleration. Similarly, landing with the hook down will trigger a realistic deceleration. THESE WILL WORK ON ANY SURFACE in the game. In addition to that, it would we quite easy to recreate some basic LSO radio calls* and detect which "wire" you have engaged by checking your position against the carrier location (but that will work only on the CVN-78). We plan to share the code (which is however very simple) for other devs or the community to make it better or make other planes compatible with the carrier. If time allows, we will work on a Nimitz-class for the T-45C with similar features. And yes, we have also considered making the Queen Elizabeth and the Cavour... and these may come at a later date. As for the release, we think it *may* be better to keep this separate from the F-35 package, if anything to make updates easier. If it will be a separate package, it will be a very inexpensive payware (but we are also considering a free release). ...that is it for the moment. We know this is disappointing for some, but we want to be extremely clear and make sure the our marketing material does not oversell our products. Then, hopefully we'll get proper carriers support in future (for the record, MSFS assets already contain traces of a working carrier)... * - As for the LSO we cannot confirm anything yet. Still, if you are American and you believe you have the proper voice and accent to record the radio calls for us, please contact us with a private message. Source -
VSKYLABS Announces Hot Air Balloon Project For X-Plane 11
For quite some time, VSKYLABS is researching/experimenting/developing advanced Hot Air Balloon simulation for X-Plane by Laminar Research flight simulation environment. Development has reached advanced 'Proof Of Concept' stage, where all core elements of Hot Air Ballooning are being constructed and tested altogether, to include: Burners and hot-air simulation (inside the envelope), Pressure scoops (skirts), operational Parachute valve and valve lines, Envelope aerodynamics and physics and more. In short, temperature difference between the air inside the envelope and the ambient air surrounding it will determine the lift of the Hot Air Balloon. So the pilot uses the burner/s to heat up the air inside the envelope and the result is "lift". When the air cools-down inside the envelope, lifting force is decreased and the Hot Air Balloon will gradually begin to sink. For more precise control over the cooling of the envelope, a Parachute Valve is located on top of the envelope, and the pilot can pull a line that opens the valve, allowing hot air to get outside through the upper portion of the envelope, to allow a more rapid cooling of the air inside the envelope. Therefore, the pilot has the burner to heat the envelope, and the parachute valve to cool it down. By managing these, he can climb or descent to the desired altitude. Without fuel, the air inside the envelope will gradually cool down, and the Balloon will not be able to stay up in the air...so fuel management is crucial. The Hot Air Balloon pilot must prepare his flight with a lot of considerations. Specific weather conditions are required to allow a safe flight. High-level meteorologic knowledge is required, as well as accurate, real-time meteorological data. Hot Air Balloons utilize wind and its direction to be carried on in the atmosphere (to be drifted). Wind direction and speed changes with altitude, and navigating a Hot Air Balloon throughout the required altitude layers is very challenging. The pilot must pick the right altitude that offers the best wind direction and speed for the planned flight. Development/evaluation of the projects covers full-scale 4-5 people Hot Air Balloon simulation down to single-seat 'Hopper', and Powered 'Hopper' simulation. These are single seat Hot Air Balloons without any basket, and the pilot is hung underneath the Balloon. The 'Hopper' and the Powered 'Hopper' are taking the lead in development and testing, and the experience here in the 'Labs, so far, is no less than STRIKING. Navigating and landing a Hot Air Balloon in X-Plane sets a high level of airmanship and it is very rewarding. This 'striking' experience lead to the decision to proceed and develop full-scale Hot Air Balloon projects with ultimate VR experience, ***and with high level of educational/scientific value***. Stay tuned for more news on this fascinating project/s! In the screen shot, a VSKYLABS Powered 'Hopper' prototype (with the pusher motor shut-down) is seen during test flight somewhere over California. Source -

Just Flight Tomahawk Dev Update
Alongside the much larger and more complex 146 Professional, our development team have also been busy working on the next GA aircraft to join our MSFS fleet – the PA38 Tomahawk, here's the next update for you. As with our other MSFS aircraft, the Tomahawk has undergone an extensive upgrade to bring it up to the latest MSFS standards, especially in the areas of modelling and texturing. Work on those areas is very nearly complete as shown in these screenshots, with the focus now shifting to the systems coding, flight dynamics and sounds. Our testing team, including real-world Tomahawk pilots and instructors, have been evaluating all those visual upgrades whilst our sound artist recently spent the day recording a real Tomahawk for the brand new Wwise sound set. It might not be as complex as a 146 but there is still a lot of work and attention to detail required to bring you our best GA aircraft yet! Please note that default radios are shown here, which are to facilitate testing whilst we work on our custom avionics. Source -

IndiaFoxtEcho Update On F-35 Project For MSFS
Quick update on our F-35 project: the F-35A model is now 99.9% done. There are still minor tweaks to be done here and there, but we think the quality is already acceptable. There are a couple of details we are NOT happy with, in detail: The afterburner effect: we went for a modeled approach, but we are not happy with the results. The canopy glass material: in reality it is slightly tinted but it is difficult to get it right (and you can't trust photos that much, as it the picture depends on the lens filters and polarizers)... at the moment it has a gold-ish effect, but is probably overdone and too saturated. The special effects: we planned to add several "special effects" via the new Visual Effects editor (transonic singularities, condensation "whiskers" etc.) but there seems to be a problem as quite often effects do not look the same in the editor and in-game. While this F-35 model is largely based on the model we used for P3D, it has been remade/improved in many areas: main texture is now 8K, PBR (Substance) has been employed on all the parts (down to the smallest ones) and the model has many more details - and some parts have been completely remodelled (cockpit, weapon bays, landing gear, lights, engine, etc.) The F-35B model is almost finished too, we'll show some pictures in the next few days.

Fenix A320: The End of a Beta
The A320 is now at the end of its beta phase. Over the last two days, we’ve circulated the first release candidate internally. As things go, building the second release candidate on Friday the 13th may not have been as wise an idea as I first thought, as that build showed some unstable behavior very fitting for the day. Thankfully, from this evening to last, we’ve identified the issue as not being our own, so we can resume our scheduled activities. That starts with this - a post to cover where we are now, what we’ve done, and what’s to come. The A320 received a fair amount of systems and flight model love during the beta period. While the feature set was complete, fixing through certain system behavior in this incredibly complex fly-by-wire aircraft forced, sometimes, cascading system changes up and down the aircraft - which made bug finding and fixing feel like an endeavor. And while it isn’t super flashy or interesting, I’m happy to say that things now look stable and representative, and will serve as an excellent baseline for us to move the aircraft forward to the next phase of its journey, post-launch and beyond, where we intend to robustly support and continue improving on the product to further enhance it. Apart from the systems team, the rest of us also spent a large portion of this time focusing on things that weren’t necessarily part of the airplane, but contributed to the overall customer journey and experience. Systems depth standing alone in an aircraft is an unfortunate scenario to find oneself in, as these simulations are sold to you as an experience - and what good is that experience if you don’t feel immersed in your surroundings? So, while the systems and flight model teams worked hard on bug fixing and stability, art and EFB teams worked on refining the customer experience. To be direct, I’m talking about things like seamless and synchronized real time loading. In the Fenix, for example, all you have to do now is import your flight plan to our EFB with one click (no file downloads here!), and from there choose whether you’d like to board in real time, quickly, or instantly. Our A320 will then take care of the rest. The dispatch office will whip up a preliminary loadsheet from your SimBrief flight plan, and a company message will arrive on your MCDU’s AOC messaging system with said preliminary load sheet. Then you begin your data entry, as fuel arrives the ECAM will let you know that the refuellers (to be clear - we don’t have a visual model for this…yet) are busy at work. Make sure to switch ON the No Smoking signs, and switch OFF the seatbelts for that one, airlines tend to be specific about these things. These things, however, are considerations you didn’t necessarily make before. Refueling complete, seat-belts ON, No Smoking to AUTO (our Airbus is configured with the No Smoking signs permanently on as most operators do, flicking the switch to AUTO leaves it controlling the emergency exit lighting - which is the “ding” you hear when the gear comes up and down) - and wrap up preparations ready to go. Make sure to keep an eye on the clock, however. Boarding is complete, the doors are automatically closed, the jetway automatically cast aside - and a few moments later your company inbox lights up again. It’s your final loadsheet. Now, in real life, when loading an aircraft - you’re given a preliminary loadsheet with the flightplan, and a final loadsheet after boarding, with what really ended up happening. Sometimes they match closely, and are compliant within a defined margin to one other. Other times, 4 people, 2 infants, and three tonnes of bananas were added at the last minute, so you’re running a little heavier than planned. Or alternatively, there were a few no-shows, so you’re a little lighter. Your CG also moves around as people chop and change seats at the gate, or the baggage handlers needed to move things around. It’s part of dealing with airline operations. And so, the same happens here. Sometimes your loadsheet is compliant. Other times, it’s a revision, and you’ll need to pause and redo your departure performance and some of your initialization weights. So you’ve had a revision, and need to quickly perform a recalculation. This sort of stuff happens, but unfortunately for you, most airliner ACARS systems perform automatic reporting to their respective OPS Centers. So, if you take your parking brake off a few minutes after when you were due to depart on your SimBrief plan - well, we’ll know. And we’ll tell you about it. An ADC (After Doors Closed) message will whizz its way into your inbox, your airline demanding to know why you’re running several minutes late. Don’t worry, we included a reference card. But make sure to fill out the ADC delay form in the MCDU’s AOC menu. The airline will be expecting it. And make sure you’ve accounted for the entire delay time period, otherwise they’ll send you back a message and ask you to. To cut the storyboarding short, as much as I’d like to continue - this sort of thing is persistent throughout the flight. You can send out messages for diversions, which will be received by your airline’s OPS center, and acknowledged. Pulling into stand, the aircraft will also handle deboarding for you. These kinds of features and details go a long way, in my eyes. It adds to the simulation of performing crew duties, and to the immersion of flying the aircraft. There’s more to the above, but I can only cover so much in text, so I’ll leave the rest of this for video and media content. The final thing to say about it is that you absolutely do not need to use this entire system if you simply want to pick up the aircraft and fly. That choice, we leave to you. More... -
