That’s nice progress since FSX. I recall reading that new MSFS is compatible with FSX aircraft, which made me think they must rely on the same lookup tables at least as fallback.
While I stand corrected on lookup tables, the author does make a point on how his personal experience of flying the same aircraft as he does IRL does not compare to in-sim experience with MSFS, and does with XP. I saw similar feedback elsewhere, Wikipedia mentions it too in their reception section. If they actually implemented a sound physics model, this potentially could be addressed by tweaking it in future updates, so there’s hope.
For the record, I only bought XP11 itself for about $60 (no paid add-ons) and am flying the default Cessna. Most pro simmers appear to be invested in third-party aircraft for both sims, so I don’t know if there is so much unfounded bias.
