great, more default aircraft to repaint <_<
In addition, work continues on the DirectX 10 visual update for "Flight Simulator X"Â￾, which will be available as a free download around the launch of "Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline"Â￾.
DX10 in April, sounds good :D

Wonder what other a/c's they're gonna whip out...hopefully they won't just give us all the COF craft or something.

And I'm also wondering why they're calling it adrenaline...the mustang gets the ole juices flowing for sure, but what else might we see if they play it out literal to the name?

I got the impression that the theme of the addon was air racing (with the Reno racing Mustang.) So I wouldn't be surprised if the other aircraft all feature at Reno. Don't they race Harvards there? That'd be nice....

I'm thinking maybe some hairy approach missions, that'd get adrenaline flowing :)

The lead developer has some interesting info as well HERE, some interesting comments on SP1, talk about 'at least a 20% improvement in performance', thats substantial it it comes through.

Id say the adreniline will come when it gets to 99% complete of the 200Mb patch for it :D
