Both previously X-Plane exclusive developers, JRollon and SimCoders have collaboratively dipped their toes into Microsoft Flight Simulator development with the SIAI Marchetti, a conversion of that for Laminar’s sim.
Though only formally announced today on SimCoders’ Facebook page, partner Javier Rollon – creator of the famed CRJ-200 for X-Plane – has been showing off the Marchetti in-simulator since late October.
Teasers have mainly come on YouTube, with a five-minute teaser out on October 31 showing off some of the acrobatic qualities of the aircraft.
Later, a 30-minute full flight in the Marchetti was also posted to the platform, showing yet more acrobatics as well as shutdown procedures.
The SF260 was released for X-Plane in November 2018 by SimCoders and was the first aircraft ever released by the brand – and also the first to come natively with Reality Expansion Pack functionality.
