Twin otter X vs Extended

[Speedbird ATC 88]

I just want to know does extended support ALL the fetures of X and more? thanks.

I do not know of any features the old one had which would be not supported.

The Extended is a brandnew aircraft which is not based on the old Twin Otter software. The new version gives you a lot more features than the old one.

It has the default GPS that is tweaked a bit to make it more realistic. Using it however is identical to the default one.

ok but twin otter X GPS is better then?

It is more realistic, yes.

[Speedbird ATC 88]

It is more realistic, yes.

so... why did you not use it in extended then?

I think you misunderstand. The one in the Twin Otter Extended is based on the standard GPS but adapted to make it more realistic.

The old twin otter, had an old Garmin GPS, that could be hard to use. The Extended version uses another custom GPS, that uses the default GPS's core engine. It looks very little like the default GPS. The new twin otter also has a ton of new features, similar to those found on the airbus x extend, except more. There currently is no reason not to upgrade. If you are buying it new, I don't know why you would ever want to buy the old version. The new one is so much better.

It does. Perhaps not as you know it, but it's a more realistic simulacrum of the real thing.
