X-Crafts has launched the Open Beta for E-Jets Family 2.0, bringing a massive overhaul to its Embraer lineup in X-Plane 12. This update introduces major improvements across the fleet and officially adds the Embraer Lineage 1000, a luxurious business jet variant of the E190. The 2.0 update is free for existing users, while the price will soon increase for new customers. The final release is expected by March 1st, making this the last chance to purchase the full package at the original price.

Among the standout new features, X-Crafts has developed a custom lighting solution to address X-Plane’s dark cockpit issue, offering three different ambient lighting modes for a more realistic experience. A new noise-canceling headset effect enhances cockpit immersion, while an improved autopilot system now supports Glide Path (GP) mode, allowing pilots to perform precise RNAV approaches at airports without ILS. Additional improvements include reworked strobe and navigation lights, an upgraded EFB tablet, and a custom fuel system for the Lineage 1000, which enables long-haul operations.

The Lineage 1000 is a standout addition, featuring a fully customized luxury interior with five distinct zones, working cabin TVs, interactive elements, and adjustable lighting. It also boasts enhanced performance, with extended range capabilities and advanced automation features. X-Crafts has meticulously crafted this aircraft over two years, ensuring an authentic business jet experience that sets it apart from the standard E-Jets.

Users who own the Full E-Jets Family package can access the Lineage 1000 immediately via SkunkCrafts Updater 3.2. Those who currently own a single E-Jet can upgrade at a discounted rate before the official release. After launch, the Lineage 1000 will be sold separately at the same price as the other E-Jets.

Note : With a limited-time opportunity to get the full fleet before the price increase, this is the best moment for X-Plane pilots to expand their hangar with the most advanced E-Jets to date.
