iniBuilds is also developing Curtiss Jenny and Gruman Goose for Microsoft Flight Simulator

Microsoft Flight Simulator made a sweeping flight over Gamescom 2022 last week. It was revealed that even more new planes that will be coming in the free Anniversary Edition releasing in November. Third-party add-on studio, iniBuilds, announced it has partnered with Asobo on two more aircraft that will be part of the new release.

Coming to the November edition are a couple of historical planes. Both the Curtiss JN-4 Jenny and Grumman G-21A Goose are on their way to the game in just a few months.

The Curtiss JN-4 Jenny hails all the way back to the early era of aviation, first flying in 1915. It was the Cessna 172 of its day; that is, to say, it was a trainee pilot’s best friend — at least in North America. After serving its time in WWI, many units were converted for civilian purposes, such as mail planes and commuters. iniBuilds is approaching this recreation of the “Jenny” rather faithfully. It plans to model “over 800 cable loops” that follow their original links — as taken from the aircraft’s manual.

The Grumman G-21 Goose very much lives up to its name, as it’s one of the most iconic amphibious planes in aviation history. Considered to be “possibly the world’s first private luxury aircraft,” it was originally designed to appeal to wealthy executives. Its interior features such as limited seating in lieu of having room for amenities like “a bar, toilet and executive seating.”

The studio has been dedicated to “recreate the executive cabin in painstaking detail,” even bothering to include minor details like a champagne bucket. It’s not all for show, however. Extensive work is also being done on even the model of the engine. The flight dynamics are sure to match up as well.
