Over the past few days, I’ve continued to receive feedback from players about the game. Based on some of the issues reported, I’ve released the v0.5.2 update.
New Content
Added 6 real-world aircraft models: the passenger variant of the Cessna 408 SkyCourier, L 410 NG, Tu-214, Tu-154M, NAMC YS-11, and Fokker F27-500 Friendship. (Some of these aircraft have been out of production for many years, so I recommend trying them in Sandbox Mode. They were added in preparation for the upcoming historical mode.)
Added "Historical airport simulation"
Gameplay Adjustments
Rebalanced aircraft utilization and on-time performance.
Corrected passenger allocation between airports in the same city and route competition assessments.
Rebalanced subsidiary synergies and ownership returns.
Fixed missing cargo offers for newly opened routes and improved contract replacement warnings.

Fixed date advancement repeatedly restarting route recommendation searches.
Fixed settings changes delaying autosaves.
