Anyone know of any purchased planes that we know for sure that is fully functional with the latest beta (soon to be 10.20)?

 

I'll add the list here as we find out which ones are ready

 

64 bit compatible aircraft.

I made the mistake of believing the A320 Neo by Jar Design was 64 bit ready and purchased it last Sunday only to be disappointed.

 

I can of course fly in 32 bit but miss the performance of 64 bit. I have to say that it is confusing to keep up with what is compatible and what is not. Roll on the end of this beta period so all of this can be cleared up.

Not familiar with PA peters can you clarify?  I just need the author and plane that is compatible or website so I can check.   I want to have a nice list here with a link to each manufacturer even freely distributed ones that are compatible.   Makes a quick and easy reference for us to go to shop once 10.20 is out.

A320Neo by JARDesign is 64-bit ready. Look for their 64bit beta update.

Try PA Peters as well.  All part 121 airframes and they declare 64 comp.  Carenado also declares 64 comp with several part 91 aircraft.

 

:)

PA A321 is not 64bit compatible yet. I don't know if the A380 and his previous planes for XP 9 are, I doubt it. I think his priority is with the ones released for XP 10.

General Operating and Flight Rules (14 CFR Part 91) is a section of the US Federal Aviation Regulations covering (guess what) general operating and flight rules for aircraft flown in the USA.  Private Pilot activities fall under Part 91. Part 121 is another section of the same FAR covering scheduled air carriers.  Parts 91 and 121 do not define aircraft but rather the regulations that they are operated under (a scheduled airline service under Part 121 has stricter regulations that your run of the mill VFR general aviation pilot operating under Part 91).  A private pilot flying a Baron would fall under Part 91, a scheduled service flying a Baron would fall under Part 121.

 

This can be a mind numbing topic (lets get into Part 135, Commuter and On Demand services !), but in general referring to airplanes as "part 91" or "part 121" is not quite correct.

Oh sorry Peters Aircraft ok I'll add to list once I find out which ones are compatible. I'm just not familiar with the "part 121/91" difference.

 

 

Yes, Peters Aircraft.  That's what I was referring to. 

 

FAA Part 121 operations typically references "Commercial Airliner" type/category aircraft.  FAA Part 91, typically references "General Aviation" type/category aircraft. 

 

Sorry, for the confusion.

If one has ever worked in aviation then referring to a Part 121 operation has a very specific connotation with respect to aircraft type/category.  The same holds true for flight training, where operations are very often referred to as being either a Part 141, or Part 61 - again, having a specific connotation with respect to type and kind of flight school and/or flight training program.  Others, will also recognize the term a Part 135 operation, but that can have a broader meaning in relationship to type/category of aircraft used.  One might find a Boeing 757 sitting on the same ramp next to a PA-28R, with both belonging to a Part 135 operation.

 

In general, it might depend on ones' background as to whether or not such references are familiar, or unfamiliar.  I still remember what the Fuel Load sheets looked like at an aircraft refueling company I worked at as a kid in school.  Each account had the name of the customer along with the FAA Part number designating the type of flight operation and the type of aircraft to be fueled.  I could have said General Aviation aircraft in one instance as opposed to Part 91, but for some people that's still somewhat cryptic.  So, it might depend on what you've been exposed to in the past.

Jason Chandler's aircraft at AIR.C74.Net work fine under 64-bit as none of them depend on plugins.

Grumman G21-A Goose Package and the Bombardier Challenger 300 Captain Edition by Ddenn Designs using the standard SASL 64-bit plugin.

STMAs Husky, Beaver, Otter and Super Cub are now 64-bit. The Pilatus is still not fully 64-bit compatible.
