Got Friends has released a broad compatibility update, covering 23 freeware and payware projects, bringing its line-up forward for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. 

Work has been done across environmental sounds, animations, broader code, and long-requested quality-of-life fixes have been implemented. Two legacy items remain pending: the 40th Anniversary Pack and the Avatar Collections, which are not yet compatible.

Alongside the updates, Got Friends says its next aircraft, the Aeroprakt A32 Vixxen, has now entered beta. The project is being developed with Aeroprakt USA and Heavenbound Aviation in Johnstown, Ohio. 

The flight school has built a custom panel with RealSimGear avionics, tied to an MSFS 2024 build for training use. Accompanying the aircraft’s release will be a small scenery rendition of the school's 5OI8 Mcknight Airport.

The A32 Vixxen will include numerous variants and options, including steam and analogue instrument layouts, AirTrac tyres, with wheelpants for paved operations, and Tundra tyres for bush flying.

Pricing has not been finalised, though the team indicates it will be in line with previous releases. Got Friends is targeting a near-term launch for both MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024. To purchase any of Got Friend's aircraft, visit their website here.
