Just Flight Releases the Fokker F28 Professional for MSFS‍

Following the release of the highly popular BAE 146 Professional, Just Flight have released the next aircraft in their Professional Series of aircraft. The Fokker F28 is a 1960s-designed short-range airliner popular with European carriers of the time. 

The Fokker F28 flew in 1967 and entered into service in 1969 with Braathens SAFE of Norway. The type was produced until 1987 among several models before being phased out in favor of the newer Fokker F70/F100 series. The 65 to 85-seat jet remained in service worldwide until as recently as 2019. The type also entered into military service with a handful of jets remaining in military service. 

The Just Flight rendition of this aircraft covers several variants of the aircraft with the Mk. 1000 Mk. 2000, Mk. 3000, and Mk. 4000 all being covered. Just Flight used real plans from the aircraft and extensive study of a museum aircraft to ensure model accuracy. Just Flight has also utilized many newer features in MSFS to create an accurate addon.
