Following on from their award-winning
146 Professional for MSFS, the Just Flight in-house team has developed this high fidelity simulation of the F28 regional jet following comprehensive, hands-on research with a real world aircraft, ex-PH-CHN at AM&TS (Curio) Woensdrecht.
Just Flight are excited to bring you all four production variants of the F28: the Mk 1000 to the Mk 4000. Announced in 1962, the F28 Mk 1000 first flew in 1967 and entered airline service in 1969. The Mk 2000, 3000 and 4000 variants followed in the 1970s and featured increases in fuselage length and wingspan. Production ended in 1987. The aircraft proved to be popular and entered airline service around the world, with a small number of military operators still flying the type into the mid-2020s.
The Just Flight F28 Professional features incredibly detailed models with 4K and 8K textures for the highest possible texture detail and clarity. Realistic animations include dynamic wing-flex, all passenger, service and cargo doors, and the distinctive lift dumpers and tail-mounted airbrake.
In the cockpit, the Captain, Co-Pilot and jump seat positions are modelled, with every switch, knob and lever animated and functional. A highly detailed and accessible passenger cabin and galley are included and include fully interactable forward galley controls for door operation, cabin lights, cabin-to-cockpit calls, cabin temperature and even a music system!
The aircraft features complex custom-coded systems based on real-world FCOMs, including hydraulic, electrical, fuel and pressurisation systems. Wear and tear based on extensive reference photos and a 3D Wwise sound set provide an authentic cockpit environment, with highly realistic flight dynamics for each variant completing the immersive experience.
See the Detailed Description below for full details of all the aircraft features!
The Operating Manual and the EFB manual are included with the aircraft software and you can also download them here.
Four F28 tutorial videos are available to view on YouTube.

"Just Flight has raised the bar with this excellent rendition of the Fokker F28. An authentic flight model backed up by high-quality visual detail and and superb systems simulation... Overall, the external model is superb and strikes the right balance between visual detail and performance... The attention to detail extends to the flight deck, which is an authentic recreation of the real aircraft... A very immersive and authentic sound environment... The documentation and resources Just Flight has made available are outstanding and one of the best I have seen for any third-party aircraft... Just Flight has done an outstanding job in recreating the look and feel of the F28. From a visual standpoint, the aircraft is superb, both inside and out."
