Black Square has released the highly anticipated Starship for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024. This aircraft was developed in partnership with the owners of the real Starship to ensure the most realistic recreation possible.

Development of the Starship began in 1979, and after ten years, in 1989, the first production model took to the skies. Although a total of 50 Starships were built, only six remain airworthy today. The aircraft was groundbreaking for several reasons: it was the first certified canard wing aircraft, the first all-composite structure business aircraft, the first certified twin pusher turboprop, and the first general aviation aircraft to feature an all-glass cockpit. Additionally, it is one of only three civilian turboprop aircraft with a service ceiling of 41,000 feet. The Starship was truly ahead of its time.

The aircraft is equipped with numerous features, including an accurate recreation of the Collins avionics suite, a sophisticated pressurisation simulation, and an advanced cabin temperature simulation. It offers 230 potential failure scenarios, a new tablet interface, and much more. These various features contribute to its promotion as one of the most advanced aircraft simulations available for the simulator.

The newly released Starship by Black Square is now available from Just Flight for $54.99.
