iniBuilds has rolled out a significant update to its A300-600R Airliner Premium package for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, bringing the product up to version 1.0.5. This release targets a wide range of reported issues and introduces welcome quality-of-life improvements to enhance the overall flying experience.
Among the highlights, the update addresses performance-related stutters tied to beacon and strobe lights, corrects several display and logic inconsistencies such as TCAS indications and altitude path calculations, and restores the proper operation of the standby compass. Visual refinements, including navigation light sizing, landing elevation display, and cockpit lighting, have also been implemented for improved immersion.
In addition to fixes, v1.0.5 adds support for LIDO charts, alongside other usability options such as disabling engine covers by default on cold & dark spawns. The update is available now via SIMMARKET for all existing customers.
