I'll be there on Xplane using a rented FSEconomy plane. Not sure if I will be using the REP C172, C210 or SF260.

It would allow for pilots who live East of the coverage areas the chance to enjoy doing a morning flight in local time before the day star...

Glad to read from the pilotedge Instagram page that PE is looking forward to supporting this new platform. A slight change it seems from when this post was made. Seems a lot of developers got the feedback and feel they needed to move forward on support for this platform. A good thing for all.
