Earlier this week, Colimata has released version 1.20 of the Concorde, their flagship product. The newest version brings autopilot improvements, tutorial/manual updates, and with the release of X-Plane 11.50 on the horizon, full Vulkan compatibility.

A full list of changes in version 1.20 is as follows:

• Full Vulkan compatibility
• More inertia (the jet feels heavier in pitch and roll)
• New Autopilot functions
• AP MAX CLIMB - for optimum climb performance
• AP MAX CRUISE - keeps the jet at Mach 2.00
• AP IAS HOLD - holds airspeed via pitch angle
• AP GLIDE - follows ILS glideslope
• AP VOR LOC - improved
• AP TURBULENCE mode
• New video tutorial 'vertical flight profile'
• HSI got an INS mode in addition to the RAD mode
• ASI airspeed and speed limit refinements
• INS bug fixes and improvements
• Decision height light on ADI
• Updated manuals  
• Marker lights
• Crew callout improvements
• More small fixes and improvements

At the time of writing, the Colimata Concord can be purchased on the X-plane.org Store for a discounted price of $49.95, compared to the full price of $59.69. It is unclear when the promotion will end.
