Today the folks that run the development of Microsoft Flight Simulator revealed that they&rsquo;d reached an important milestone. Alpha 5 was was released this week, on the 9th of July, 2020, and Closed Beta was moved into final testing!<\/p>\n<p>Included in the update notes for this latest upgrade for Microsoft Flight Simulator was&hellip; a lot of polish. They mentioned the word polish approximately six times. They suggested that this update was all about community feedback, bug fixes, and &ldquo;an overall polish pass.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>That includes a bit of &ldquo;polish&rdquo; for:<\/strong><br \/>&bull; All planes (which also got another round of tuning)<br \/>&bull; The World<br \/>&bull; Airports<br \/>&bull; Scenery<br \/>&bull; The Weather<\/p>\n<p>They also suggested in their&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flightsimulator.com\/july-9th-2020-development-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">official update release<\/a>&nbsp;that they&rsquo;re &ldquo;hard at work focused on community feedback, polish, polish, and more polish.&rdquo; By the time this Flight Simulator is released to the public, it&rsquo;ll be too shiny to see properly! You&rsquo;ll try to lean against an airplane and slip so hard, you&rsquo;ll bust your face on the pavement!<\/p>\n<p>They suggested that they delivered &ldquo;improvement to the ground effect formula&rdquo; for this latest edition of the game in order to &ldquo;improve the overall &lsquo;realism&#8217;&rdquo; of the experience. Updates were made to engine and propeller effects on all propeller planes, specifically for P-Factor, Torque, Gyro-Precession, and Prop Wash. Both Flap lift and drag adjustments &ldquo;across all planes&rdquo; were implemented with this update, too.<\/p>\n<p>If you&rsquo;ve been playing since the beginning, you&rsquo;ll likely flip your lid knowing that you&rsquo;ll now be able to perform a belly landing with the Bonanza G36. They also adjusted TBM 930 Engine torque, and improved overall A320 Fly By Wire (FBW) implementation.<\/p>\n<p>A couple of&hellip; probably pretty important updates were made for all planes in the areas of Auto Pilot and Landing Gear alerts. Before this update, reaching 16,000 MLS meant you&rsquo;d be seeing a &ldquo;Landing Gear&rdquo; alert blasting incessantly &ndash; that&rsquo;s apparently fixed. Auto Pilot also had a bug, now fixed, which caused aircraft to &ldquo;rock&rdquo; from left to right when ON.<\/p>\n<p>If you&rsquo;re not currently an Alpha tester for Flight Simulator, you&rsquo;ll want to look to &ldquo;new invitations for Closed Beta participation&rdquo; in the very near future. They&rsquo;ve announced a Closed Beta release for the 30th of July, 2020 &ndash; so soon!
