Greetings fellow Flight Sim friends..
I converted from FSX to P3Dv4 and loving it. But I also installed and have been playing with X Plane 11 off and on for a few months. Then I found out FSTramp released a X-Plane version last week. This has been the tipping point for me as I am a casual flyer and the point & click features in FSTramp is perfect for the way I fly. This made me spend sever hours over the weekend flying the Stock 738 on routes I usually fly in P3dv4 with FSCaptain. And in my personal opinion, while the scenery eye candy is not the same as I'm use to with P3D and Orbx... the flight physics and stock aircraft in X-Plane 11 are outstanding. However I missed the immersion of FSCaptain.
So... this leads me to ask.... could I be lucky enough to hope all y'all will consider publishing a X-Plane version of FSCaptain? If so... I'd be happy to pay for this new version of FSCaptain.
Here's to flight sim hopes....
Cheers, D-Man

I have four sims on my box: FSX, P3Dv4, DCS, and Xplane. They all have their own flavor, strengths and weaknesses and I like them all and spend time in all of them doing different things. On those that don't have FSCaptain I really miss it.
I'm very impressed with XPlane 11!
The sound of XCaptain does sort of roll off the tongue doesn't it?
My advice: stay tuned.
Dutch

I have to second this, love to have XCaptain with X-plane 11. Excellent product and this support forum.

I have the XP11 demo ready to install as soon as FSCaptain 1.8.0 goes live. Wow... the videos look wonderful!
I would speculate that XCaptain would be a new development... from the ground up. It would work with the FSCaptain aircraft and airline data (and as close as possible with the airport data) so that we would like to support careers that could span FS9... FSX... P3D... and XPlane.
That's all "hopeful speculation" at this stage.
Best,

Would love to see this in X-Plane. And you would have virtually no competition.

I bought the license for FSCaptain after 3-5 demo flights (And I joined the forum like few weeks ago). FScaptain is very interesting program (I am sure the more I use it I will figure more out). It would be great if it would work in X-plane also (got this on massive 37% steam discount)...
I will be doing flights in FSX/P3Dv4 and soon in X-plane 11. Would be amazing to carry the profile over from all the sims in a seamless fashion.

Hi all!
Six months ago, I would have said to not expect anything from us with XPlane.
Now, I can only say that everyone should be patient... we would like to have something available in 2018.....
BEst regards,

No news. Dutch didn't have enough time to work on XPlane this year.
I do have a plan that wouldn't begin until mid-late 2019 at the earliest....
Best,

I finally pulled the trigger and made the switch from P3Dv3 to XP11. I wanted to go to 64 bit but P3D didn't offer any airliners so I thought, I'm not too old to learn a new flightsim, even after all these years with FS going all the way back to FS2. The only thing missing is FSCaptain which brings the whole thing to life. So thanks guys for all the wonderful years with FSC and I'll be looking forward to XCaptain. As soon as you develop it, save me a copy and I'll be right there. Mike
