Announcing the BN-2 Islander

Recommended Posts

TorqueSim and X-Aviation are proud to announce the BN-2 Islander!

Initially started independently of TorqueSim, the inclusion of this beautiful bird into the new TS development pipeline has allowed for rapid progress and the seamless integration of custom systems, as well as boosting the quality of the 3D models and textures significantly!

This aircraft will feature a high quality model, PBR textures throughout, a full custom electrical system with working circuit breakers, support for the AFM G5 avionics on launch, and of course the fantastic roar of its O-540s will be rendered in beautiful FMOD!

All that, and more to come as we plan to update and improve our product throughout its lifetime!

To stay up to date with what’s going on keep a close eye on the forum here! Stay tuned for more dev updates, screenshots, and insights, and of course for the big moment when the plane is available to fly on X-Aviation!

Just now, Coop said:

A Maintenance Hangar is not planned for the initial release, but it is being considered to be added later!

Thanks Coop, two of the best X plane airplanes are the Pocket rocket and the mooney m20, both are awesome and have a great wear maintenance hangar. Can't wait for the BN-2 and the maintenance hangar implementation!! You are such a GREAT and TALENTED developer company!!!.

Hi Sam,

It's very doubtful this will be migrated over. There have been evaluations of the SDK for MSFS 2020 and some internal alpha testing amongst some developers, and we're not all convinced at this time.

We're definitely excited to continue supporting X-Plane well into the future though!
