August Update - 4 New and 4 Updated Aircraft Profiles

---

Greetings Pilots,

We are pleased to be back with our August Update.

What's new with Circuit Avionics?

Things have been quiet on the news front but only because so much has been happening behind the scenes!

During this period of global change we’ve been improving our supply chain and fine-tuning how we build and deliver our hardware for the years ahead.

We've developed a support tool which has greatly helped in providing remote assistance to the trickier support cases, and have been working on significant updates to our website, which will roll out over the coming weeks and months. The goal is to create a smoother experience for newcomers researching and setting up their hardware, as well as for existing customers looking for support. You can look forward to better product manuals and, of course, even more aircraft profiles.

Speaking of which, we've added four new Aircraft Profiles for the Autopilot this time, upholding our commitment to expand the range of aircraft with which you can use your hardware.

Incidentally, over on the Discord server, we have added a profiles-request area, so if there's something you'd like to see added just mention it there and we'll consider it.

New Aircraft Profiles

MSFS - DC Designs Concorde

Pilot the iconic airliner with custom functionality for Concorde's unique autopilot.

This aircraft is currently featured in the Just Flight Summer Sale - only £16.79 - in our opinion well worth it for the price.

MSFS - Microsoft / Miltech Simulations Boeing C-17 Globemaster III

We wanted to add some variety so for military heavylift we added the C-17. This aircraft is available in FS2024 Premium Deluxe and through the Marketplace.

X-Plane - Sparky 747

This profile was requested by one of our pilots over on Discord. The Sparky mod is an overhaul of the default 747.

X-Plane - FlightFactor (VMAX) Boeing 757 / 767 - FPDS Upgrade

We already have a profile for these wonderful Boeings, but our Discord community requested an update for the FPDS avionics package, which is available as a $20 upgrade to the base package. FPDS is the Flat Panel Display System, a more modern avionics package, fitted to many B757 / 767 aircraft still in service.
