The inertial separator redirects intake air to remove particles, with a corresponding performance cost. The developer also models foreign-object damage, residual engine heat after shutdown and bleed-air valve failures that can restrict available power. Those systems can change what the pilot sees during a turnaround or climb, while the tablet provides visualisations of the engine and its condition.

TBM 900 · Hot Start · X-Plane 11
Hot Start's TBM 900 retains switch, fuel and aircraft-condition state between flights. The published model includes component wear, a maintenance manager and separately tracked airframes. Its G1000-based cockpit adds synthetic vision, engine and system pages, while the PT6, electrical and environmental systems have custom models. The reviewed product page still specifies X-Plane 11; its advertised future X-Plane 12 update is a separate statement.

The TBM programme began as a collaboration between SOCATA and Mooney and continued under Daher. The low-wing airframe carries one nose-mounted turboprop and a pressurised cabin. Successive versions developed the engines, aerodynamics, avionics and pilot interface.
The analogue-panel TBM 850, glass-cockpit TBM 900 and TBM 930 occupy different points in that progression. Simulator developers model these panel generations and different levels of persistent system behaviour, documented for each product.

The Dassault Falcon 50 is a three-engine business jet that first flew in 1976.
Original Falcon 50
The Falcon 8X extends the 7X lineage through aerodynamic changes, engine optimization and additional fuel capacity. First deliveries took place in October 2016. The selected background reference covers the 7X and 8X, with figures labelled by model. The simulator listing records its product's development status.

Dassault Mirage 2000 family reference
The Rafale is a twin-engine canard-delta combat aircraft developed for French air-force and naval use. AzurPoly’s background section dates the Rafale A technology demonstrator’s first flight to 4 July 1986 and the full programme’s launch to 1988. The close-coupled canards and delta wing are part of an airframe built around electronic flight control and several mission roles.
AzurPoly’s Rafale C for MSFS 2024 uses its own fly-by-wire implementation, with load-factor demand and protections that respond to configuration and stores. Automatic pitch and roll trim belong to its normal digital law. Canards, elevons and slats move as part of that control system rather than following a conventional airliner flap schedule.
Manual history · Rafale family · AzurPoly Rafale C
The CL-415 developed from Canadair's piston-engined CL-215. Turboprops and updated equipment retained the flying-boat layout: a boat hull, high wing and retractable landing gear. It was designed for aerial firefighting, with other utility and rescue roles also possible.
The simulator combines the aircraft's systems with water collection, release and firefighting mission tools. The later DHC-515 is a separate development.

SimCoders’ REP adds persistent temperatures, switch positions, battery condition and maintenance needs to Thranda’s X-Plane 12 Beaver. Its hangar interface covers the engine, electrical system and landing gear. An optional economy mode attaches virtual earnings and costs to flying, fuel and repairs. The page explicitly excludes the older XP11 Beaver.
