: A long-term project designed for both X-Plane 11 and 12. As of 2022, the developer reported that the flight model was roughly 75% complete , with significant improvements to the 3D model intended to meet modern simulation standards.

To operate the ATR 72600 X Plane 11 smoothly, ensure your system meets the minimum requirements:

Control engine power from Flight Idle to Maximum Takeoff power.

Keep an eye on icing conditions. The ATR 72 is highly sensitive to structural icing; ensure the airframe and engine de-icing boots are activated if flying through visible moisture in freezing temperatures. Approach and Landing

At the acceleration altitude, retract flaps to and switch the Power Management Knob to CLB . Cruise and Descent

But as we move through 2026, the tide is turning. Both and DWSim are not just promising an add-on; they are showing real, in-game progress, with an expected release this very year. The long drought is ending, and X-Plane 11 pilots are finally on the verge of getting the ATR 72-600 they have so passionately requested for years.

The ATR features an innovative "Hotel Mode". Start engine #2 and engage the propeller brake. This allows the engine to run without the propeller spinning, providing electrical power and air conditioning to the cabin while keeping the plane safe for ground crews.

Advance Power Levers slightly. Use steering tillers or rudder pedals to maneuver. Set flaps to 15 degrees.
