Officially announced back in April 2020, Aerobask has today released their rendition of Lancair Legacy RG for X-Plane 11. As promised earlier throughout the aircraft development, it features 4K PBR textures, high-quality FMOD, custom-coded SASL3 systems, or RealityXP GTN 750 compatibility. The complete feature list can be found below.
The Lancair Legacy is a two-seat single-engine light aircraft marketed in kit form, which is now out of production. It evolved from the Lancair 235/320 series, but with a larger fuselage and more powerful engine (..)
The aircraft can be purchased via the X-Plane.org Store for $34.95. The aircraft was developed in cooperation with Roberto Blanco – owner and pilot of N637PG (Lancair Legacy RG).
