Today, third-party developers had news to share about add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator, including airplanes and airports.

We start with a small update on the Boeing 757-200/300 in the works at Bluebird Simulations.

According to the sim, which shared the screenshot below, there has been “a lot of progress on the virtual cockpit switches and animations, as well as implementing some systems for the FMS.”

That said, there is still “a long way to go.”

Aerosoft has announced another upcoming airport and that is Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden Airport (EDSB).

It is not a gigantic airport, but it is the second largest in the German state of Baden-Württemberg, after Stuttgart. It is mainly served by Ryanair and Wizz Air.

Last but not least, the news comes from Flightbeam Studios, who have announced a massive free upgrade to their Denver International Airport (KDEN).

It will include all new terminal expansions and recent updates, as well as the following.

• All new highly detailed interiors.
• Passengers (static + animated)
• Custom gateways

KDEN was part of the first wave of plugins for Microsoft Flight Simulator back in August 2020 and Flightbeam has improved significantly since then. It’s great that you’re getting an update.

The developer also continues to work on KMSP (Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport), KSFO: Captain’s Edition (San Francisco International Airport), and KPHX (Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport).
