MSFS: Kodiak, King Air, PMDG patch
Flight‑sim activity is hot: the Kodiak 100 release date was announced and the Beechcraft King Air 200 plus Porto v2 are slated (Porto v2 targeted for April), while iniBuilds pushed A350 updates and four new sceneries — and PMDG released MD‑11 v1.20.0055 to address lingering issues SimulDaily fsnews_eu.
SimWorks Studios has rebuilt its Kodiak as a native MSFS 2024 product and set the launch for March 27, with the developer offering a two‑SKU approach (a wheeled+amphibian bundle and an amphibian‑only pack). (msfsaddons.com) The MSFS 2024 Kodiak rebuild explicitly carries over both wheeled and float configurations and is described by outlets as a ground‑up refresh of what many reviewers called a benchmark add‑on in the MSFS 2020 era. (simflight.com) Carenado has confirmed development of a classic King Air B200 for both MSFS 2024 and MSFS 2020, billed internally as the “KA B200” and positioned to fill the community demand for an analog King Air variant. (msfsaddons.com) MK Studios released first preview screenshots for a Porto v2 described as a full rebuild with improved terrain and is targeting an April release window for that ground‑up LPPR update. (fselite.net) iniBuilds pushed an A350 Airliner update to v1.2.3 and simultaneously published scenery updates covering KDFW, VHHH, KLAX and KSAT, with the studio posting the A350 version bump on its updates forum. (fsnews.eu) The MD‑11 change referenced traces back to a legacy PMDG patch (v1.20.0055) from 2009 that implemented roughly 34–35 fixes for the FSX/FS2004 MD‑11 — including safeguards against malformed flight‑plan files and fixes for CTDs at airports with very large SID/STAR counts.
