I all stillhet har nå X-plane 11 public beta 3 blitt lansert. Ikke et ord om dette på nettsiden til X-plane. Men etter å ha kjørt oppdateringsprogrammet til X-plane 11 kan vi nå konstatere at public beta 3 er klar for nedlastning. Denne fikser opp i en rekke bugs i X-plane. Noe av det første man merker er at dem nå har fikset natt himmelen og denne bugen med feil i teksturer. Og med dette er vi nå enda ett skritt nærmere den offisielle lanseringen av X-plane 11.
Under er en liste hentet fra Aerosoft:
