Just Flight previews F28 sounds and PBR textures

Last time mentioned in early March, Just Flight has today posted via their Facebook page a video previewing the sounds and PBR textures of the upcoming Fokker F28 for Prepar3D. The video can be seen below, I highly recommend you to watch the video yourself since there is not much we can describe.

The F28 will take advantage of the latest technologies such as PBR materials and TFDi RealLight and TrueGlass to produce stunning visual fidelity.

When released, the package should feature four variants of the F28, realistic animations, PBR materials, realistic wing-flex and flight dynamics or sounds, for example. The complete feature list can be seen below.
