First look at the Saab 340 in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024

Today we take a first look at the Asobo / Carenado Saab 340 in Microsoft Flight Simulator - starting it up from cold and dark at Queenstown in New Zealand, and taking it for a quick circuit to find out how it handles.

I have prepared a functional procedure to help walk through the minimum configuration steps required for the aircraft - you can get it from here:
