Is Microsoft Flight Sim turning into an every part sim?

The truth that Microsoft Flight Sim helps paid third-party enlargement packs shouldn’t be new info, as such. What’s new, although, is that devs resembling Parallel 42 have silently been engaged on fully surprising methods of having fun with Flight Sim all alongside. Except for the aforementioned buggy (which comes with its personal complete set of options, customization choices, and extra), Parallel 42 has additionally developed a tenting DLC, which is exactly what it says on the tin.

These are pricy choices, naturally, and so they gained’t be for everybody.
