A quick update regarding the release date of the Dukes - Due to the delay of SU15 from Asobo/Microsoft we are also going to need to delay the release of the Dukes unfortunately. Best laid plans and all that. You can read more about the delay and the reasoning here: www.justflight.com/articles/black-square-dukes-development-update-april-2024 So our apologies, we hope to get things moving again just as soon as possible but as things stand we're reliant on news and a firm release date for SU15. Thanks for your patience.
Very well produced promo! I didn’t realise I wanted this plane until now 😅 Love that you guys release the manuals ahead of the aircraft - brilliant way to whet the appetite and feel acquainted with it on release day. JustFlight FTW
I am already planning on doing an around the world flight using the piston version. Let's see if I can manage keeping those engines in good condition! 🥶
How incredibly beautiful this looks, I would like to pay a big compliment to the makers of this beautiful piece of work. Our patience has been tested, but it is all worth it, and we look forward to the moment when we all become the owners of this beautiful jewel.
These are the kinds of videos I like to find on YT after the family are all in bed... looking good! The visualisers are a nice detail, especially the environmental one. I hope this aircraft comes with a little added 'soul' as it emulates a few A2A-style features, so it feels slightly more natural with no two engine starts being quite the same. Loved the Duke in FSX and very excited to see it arriving in MSFS :)
i fly a2a comanche from first day, all starts are same, with all respect:) only one difference is winter start, and the difference is preheat engine before start:) ah. i forgot one thing, first time i killed starter, because didn't open valves lol. after that i had 0 problems with starting. what i did, is never ever gave mixture more than the engine need. and before stop engine burning plugs on 1500rpm at 50% mixture. 20-30seconds. a2a is the best model for now, but if you do a-b-c you will got a*-b*-c*... or i got one lucky with quality market when get new one and fly only this one with light blue line texture:) same about mv310 if not set randomize failures and don't reaping those girls they will never beat you. however i have not much hours, and change oil too often. i really don't remember 90h probably. and changed oil 5 times i guess, plugs only once first days. ah and i killed engine once because didn't heat oil enough. so after take up above santa monica i was forced to land on the road:) i even had stopped engine on taxi after landing once because of ice was everywhere in carb. but engine starts except first one was absolutely same. afaik you can not even overpriming the engine. i read on forum that, and don't know for sure, i just use 3-5 time all time:) well, probably when very cold i use more. and i think fi bf109 better because it good enough modeling and this is the fighter. same about all fi fighters, and same about gf wildcat. even without all that cool stuff. it's horrible you know, from summer of 2020 we haven't good enough mustang and none thunderbolt at all. this sim so incomplete without them. same without vrs super hornet:( and without good enough viper falcon. milviz promised actually two of vipers:) falcon and ah-1 so i guess we'll be o.k. however if nobody will create a2a quality mustang this planet not good enough hahaha
@@einherz I know the Comanche is still fairly predictable but there is enough randomness to make it more 'believable' vs a pure simulation. Most aircraft, even those with random failures, are always the same, no variation at all. That's all I mean :)
@@Mustang242Sqn in any way for me much more important is type of ac and visual quality... physic. if that's not horrible is good enough for me. that's why i don't think much about super realistic modelling, but really need more quality fighters. or at least small enough and speed enough. duke is speedy and compact and looking as good as fighters:) i need lancair too:)
Knocked it out of the park with this one, guys! (granted, all others have rocked, as well). Thanks for the excellent attention to detail! Can't wait to see what's next.
I remember agonising for ages in FSX over whether to get the piston or turbine version of the Duke. With this dual package it sound like I’ll be buying two aircraft not one then in April. Actually three if the Heatblur Phantom releases for DCS. At least the A380 will be free. For now I just need to resist buying the Hindenburg.
Looking really nice. Still would love to see full performance data charts included to get the most out of a plane this well modelled. And full state-saving! :)
This is one of the most unexpected airplanes, and by that, I mean Beech Dukes are fairly rare and not too well known, to be brought to MSFS. It will be a day one buy for me. I am very excited about this and will be flying it almost exclusively for some time.
It would be really great if you could bring these new improvements to the tbm850! Especially the tablet and pitot covers. It's your first airplane, so it deserves this care all the same !
Thank you for your reply, I just wanted to know if Blacksquare had considered this. I'll wait as long as it takes, the work is already incredible, it's unprecedented in flight simulation.
I purchased both the planes and have been flying them non stop for two days now. However in the Turbine Duke I am getting a strange high pitched sound during the whole flight and for the life of me I cannot find how to turn it off. When I take the view outside the cockpit it is gone, so it is only in the cockpit. Could you tell me how to turn it off please?
Please contact our support team and they will answer you. I have a feeling this is something that's ultra-realistic in there but certainly worth checking with our support guys: support.justflight.com/support/home
@@justflight I thought you might have known what that is. I contacted support, but from experience I know it takes a very long time to get an answer from them :( I hope I get an answer soon because the Turbine Duke is pretty much unflyable for me until then, that high pitch sound hurts my ears. My only consolation is flying the Piston Duke as there is no high pitched whine on that one. Pity cos I prefer the turbo props.
I purchased the turbine version only with high praise, except for the exterior lights. I cannot see any landing or taxi lights when observed at night. They should be brilliant and visible when looking at the plane from the front. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
I see that they are not deployed once the landing gear is retracted. I was thinking they had to be out up to 10,000 ft. I suppose the strobes will do the job.
@@Jannik_Stein They released their first and only product 3 years after MSFS was released. They have no further projects announced, and MSFS2024 will likely be out before any new releases. A decade ago they were releasing multiple airplanes per year, warbirds and civilian, at a better degree of realism that most GA available on MSFS today. They've become a software developer for the DoD and other private projects and consumer products are no longer their main thing, they just refuse to admit it.
@@Alexius1Komnenos They didn't stop. The delay was them rebuilding the AccuSim for the new platform. The Comanche was WAY to successful for them to stop at one.
all your aircraft have been well worth it. i have no doubt i'll be happy with thos one too. stoked! discount for already owning all the others? a loyalty hook up maybe?
I must admit that I'm really hopeful for that Turbine Duke! However, I'm not clear on a couple of points. For one, is the plan to release the plane as a package that contains both, the piston and the turbine? And the other is a question that is due to my own inexperience: Is the "Turbine Duke" a Turboprop engine, (complete with reversers), or is it a gas-prop engine with a supercharger? I plan to find out and see what the these planes cost. Rich
I swore I was going to quit buying new planes. Stop it Black Square. Please, I beg you....stop. (Just kidding. I can't wait to get my hands on this bundle.)
A tutorial flight would be great regarding the operation of the aircraft. The manual is okay, but it is most of the time an explanation of the aircraft systems, not how to fly this aircraft. For example how to manage crew resources, perform calculations, performing standard procedures like an ILS.
@justflight I know and watched all, but they are not enough. We need takeoff, climb, cruise, decent, and landing tutorials using CRM and proper procedure. Thanks for the effort. Cheers guys
Oh no, another black square airplane, its going to be days of excitement looking if its released yet while my poor wallet cries in the background. I love their planes
according SinewyDolphin74 on official msfs forum's thread "The pricing for the bundle will be attractive. All to be revealed, probably next week on that. We’re still set for a release for the Dukes w/c 8th April."
Cannot FROGGIN' well wait for this to release! PS.... This 80s style retro synth music was EPIC compared to the usual rubbish 'twinkly' library music. 10/10 JF and BS.
@@haydensupra how should I understand that? Not going to school is illegal, at some point police will show up and take you there, besides that you'll need a medical certificate

Knocked it out of the park with this one, guys! (granted, all others have rocked, as well). Thanks for the excellent attention to detail! Can't wait to see what's next.
Oh, this is glorious! Haven't looked forward to a sim aircraft this much since..... ever, actually, i believe. :D
Hope for tablet in other Aircrafts specialy TBM850 need one for W&B
Great aircraft - Owned one for 15 years and developed the flight model for Real Air Simulations.
Fell in love ❤at first sight with both, instantly bought bundle!
Looks like some in depth simulation … giving A2A some good competition. Can’t wait.
Just what I was thinking! Recently got the A2A Commanche and I'm really impressed. This looks just as in depth and interesting. Can't wait!
The Duke series will be the most impressive aircraft series ever made. Visual perfection with the system depth of the legendary Hotstart Challenger!
Rarely fly GA, but this will be in my hanger for sure,
Amazing stuff! Perfect, Piston and Turbine, was not expecting that! Thank you
Bravo! Can't wait to add it as a hangar mate to the fine Bonanza you put out!
Looks stunning! Brings memories of flying the Duke back in the FSX days...
I hope the Sounds of the Aircraft are as real as it gets

Jesus the music is perfect for this show case.
This looks amazing, going to have to get both planes and fly them daily. Stunning work.
Constantly raising the bar. Can't wait... off to fly my TBM in the meantime!
Day 1! Cannot wait.....
Looking really nice. Still would love to see full performance data charts included to get the most out of a plane this well modelled. And full state-saving! :)
Absolutely stunning... I guess I'll be buying another twin engine. The level of attention to every single detail is damn impressive

I thought this day of immersion would never come during the days of FSX.
It would be really great if you could bring these new improvements to the tbm850! Especially the tablet and pitot covers. It's your first airplane, so it deserves this care all the same !
All will be brought across. These things take time. Small team at Black Square as in one developer so a little patience required.
(Just to add, the 850 was not the first but the 6th)
Thank you for your reply, I just wanted to know if Blacksquare had considered this. I'll wait as long as it takes, the work is already incredible, it's unprecedented in flight simulation.
@@Jannik_SteinI meant their first plane starting from 0 and not starting from an asobo base
@@milo6565 well, also not true xD. Their first 0-100 plane was the Velocity XL

This is fenominal! Absolutely standing first minute purchase for me for sure!
First day purchase for me too. Cannot wait to take her for a spin or two!

She is absolutely beautiful!! Looking forward to buying this combo day 1
That was absolutely amazing.

King C90B steam gauges PLEASE! 😍
Lools great! Will the non-winglet version be included (or added later)?
The piston duke will get a version with, and one without winglets
As a former BE-60 A&P, take my money! :)
Thunderstorms in MSFS ?? Where ??
Amazing trailer! Just motivated me to buy this day 1!
So freaking hyped!
Absolutely awesome. Really nice aircrafts!
Have they fixed the animation issues with props in this addon?
the details!!! omg!!
Beautiful!
This is looking like some A2A AccuSim-level simulation for a GA. It's a shame they've stopped serious development for MSFS. This is great to see
In what way did they stop developing?

Living for this day.
Love this oh so appropriate spelling mistake in the turbine Duke manual:
Engine Speed 2,190 RPM (2,410 RPM Monetary)
Can not wait for this!!!
This coming to the Xbox too? It better be!!
Frickin awesome!
Will it go into the in-game market?
