Looks Fantastic. I fly the real thing and the photo of your pfd is almost dead on. I hope there will be radar and terrain display. With the electronic checklists and chart viewer, this will be the first fsx plane with a paperless cockpit. Great job!!!

The inital implementation we got in the alpha build had the chart viewer (you need to place pdf docs in a specific directory) and electronic checklists. I have also seen terrain on some later preview pics. So I hope all these features will indeed make it in the new pl21 implementation.

Only the radar was not included nor even advertized, so I have no idea if Milviz will surprise us with it now that they code it from scratch, well you never know :)

Krazycolin,

I'm not sure if you heard or not but Rockwell Collin just added to the King Airs PL-21 ADS-B Out, Synthetic Vision, LPV/APV, electronic charts, enhanced maps and XM and ARINC graphical weather capability. Any possibility of including these in the WIP 350i?

I just picked up my KA350 from the avionics shop today and spent a few hours training with the new upgrades and love the improvements. I ordered the Pro Line Fusion with the touchscreen 14" LCD's for my King Air 250. I was close to putting this in the KA350 before I was told of the above upgrades for the PL-21.

Have a great day!

We're aware of the additions. Some of those will be added but, sadly, some will not. There are some pretty serious limitations on what we can do for the money that we could charge... i.e. including a full on charts system or XM weather would end up costing our customers thousands. Literally.

So... some will and some won't. No specifics at this time.

this is the 350i with the PL Fusion setup... I have to say its light years ahead from the PL-21... that being said, I love how easy the PL-21 is when I use it... I only need to study the autopilot modes in detail, all other controls are intuitive to use at the very least

Thank you for the email update on the King Air B350i. When you mention the KA300(Steam Edition), I am hoping you mean steam gauges, not FSX-SE? :) :?:
