Should we expect any in game update?

Kind Regards

Lets wait until the next data patch and see ;)

I hope we will be offered with a cargo version too. Currently everyone flies ATF for short haul cargo and its boring :)

Oh, a new 40-seater for AS! :ph34r:  :P  ;)

Well, if we had to pay executive bonuses...we wouldn't be able to give everyone such good seating :)

Also its seems they're offering a combi cargo/pax version. That would be great to have for shorter routes as most regio props are either /or...

Oh my god! I would buy 100 of the Combis... TODAY! It could be a 1:2 replacement. 40 seats for pax replaces my AN-140 and the cargo replaces part of my ATR-72...while giving smoother cargo transfers since there would be more flights!!!!

@Martin and @SK (and Bombardier, obviously)

I would love to have a q400 in combi format!  The ideal aircraft for Australia  I would order 100 today

I guess I had better start saving up my $$$ if this and the A350 are going to be in the next patch!

Maybe ... maybe not ;) Still not all data available ...

According to Bombardier the first Q400 Combi is already delivered to Ryuku Air Commuter: http://www.bombardier.com/en/media/newsList/details.bombardier-delivers-its-first-q400-cargo-combi-aircraft-to-okina.bombardiercom.html

There are apparently two versions, one with 50 seats at 32 inch and 32.6 m³, the other one with 68 seats at 29 inch and 23.5 m³. This cargo volume includes the baggage hold (14.2 m³ or 10.4 m³ depending on version) so the additional cargo space is smaller. I think I read somewhere, there are also 58 seats (and a second jump seat) available for the first version, but can't find a proof.

We are currently working on this aircraft (among a few others). Though I can't give you a date when it will be introduced yet.

Are there any news on the introduction of the  Q400 Cargo Combi? 

it seems the team is working too hard on that aircraft  :P 

 

That aircraft has been in service for a while now, RAC already used 400 Combi (they called it 400 cc) to replace all their 100 and Q300
