The gods behind the best Flight Sim ever has just released a new beta. This update includes a bunch of new enhancements, as well as some new instrument panels to play with! Here's a quote from their site.

"This is the biggest upgrade we have EVER had. We have tons of new instruments, and more new features than in any other release, ever.

This beta has only TEST AIRPLANES (not the full suite of X-Plane aircraft) with it. Once we are done testing the test planes, we will do a beta with the full suite of X-Plane aircraft.

So we don't use up a ton of server bandwidth for testing, this beta is available almost only by BitTorrent! We expect beta-testers to be savvy enough to install and use BitTorrent BitTorrent will often start off slow, but pick up speed as the download progresses."
