FlightFactor is continuing to develop its 777v2 Ultimate for X-Plane 11 and 12. Released last year, this aircraft is expected to continue receiving updates and paid expansions. One of these updates coming soon is the Rolls-Royce (RR) engine expansion. The developer has already released one engine expansion: the PW EE engines. This engine expansion is a paid upgrade for the base 777v2 add-on, released at the end of February. Recently, FlightFactor came with news about the second engine expansion. A post on their social media was released with a first look at this new engine.
