AEROFLY FS4: Massive Navigation and Airport Database Update Now in Steam Beta

We now have new and up-to-date navigation database in Aerofly FS with many improvements that come with it. We’ve been very busy updating our global airport database. The navigation planning just got a lot easier and more realistic at the same time. In the updated navigation menu you can now easily create a new flight to a destination with very few clicks and it automatically plans the entire route for you, including the best departure and arrival procedure as well as airways along the way.

We also added 42 new liveries for the A320 and 12 for the 787-9 !

This update is now available in the Steam beta channel. Once testing is completed we’ll push these changes to the release channel and mobile versions.
