Parallel 42 Announce New Aircraft, Updates, at FSExpo 2025
The team at Parallel 42 recently made several announcements during #FSExpoFriday at FlightSimExpo 2025. Among these are an upcoming ChasePlane update, a new aircraft reveal, and more.
The team began by discussing ChasePlane, which is celebrating its 8th anniversary this year, having first appeared during the FSX and P3D era. They shared several exciting new features that will be included in the next update for ChasePlane for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. These features include major refactoring, spot view adjustments, support for Tobii Eye Tracker, named shortcuts, custom cinematics, and much more. The upcoming update will be released through both a stable channel and an experimental channel, with the launch scheduled for next week.
Regarding compatibility with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, the team mentioned that they have an internal build that is currently functioning. Although the build requires some fine-tuning, it will be ready in due time. Once it is polished, it will be available through the experimental channel.
The team has announced that they are currently working on making Flow compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Additionally, they are bringing sceneries from Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 to 2024, including Bush Plane Campout and Mexican Mountain, which will be available in the coming weeks.
Lastly, the team discussed the Super Patriot Mark II, FreedomFox, and Fox2 aircraft. The 3D design of the Super Patriot Mark II is entering its final stages, and this aircraft is being developed in partnership with Patriot Aircraft. Initially, the FreedomFox and Fox2 were intended to be compatible with the 2024 version, but they will now be developed natively for 2024 to some extent. While a complete overhaul is not planned, a significant update will be implemented. Additionally, the team announced a collaboration with Trent Palmer to bring the Legend Nomad to the simulator.
We will keep you updated as soon as the team shares new information.
