Earlier this week, we released World Update XVII: United Kingdom & Ireland. This update includes 16 TIN cities, 79 Points of interest (POIs), and 5 handcrafted airports. As with all World Updates, it is available to download for FREE from the in-sim Marketplace.

Also this week, we launched Local Legend 18: Westland Scout & Wasp. These two Cold War-era British military helicopters come together in a bundle from the in-sim Marketplace for USD $14.99. You can read more about the Scout and Wasp on our website.

We also recently released a small update for Local Legend 16: Short SC.7 Skyvan. This update is available from Content Manager.

Whether you’re exploring Ireland and the UK with the new World Update, flying the Fisk arrival into KOSH, or visiting any other part of the world, we wish everyone happy flying this July weekend! The sky is calling!
