A Small Teaser Story for Update 1.0.8.0

The Baron climbed steadily through the morning haze, sunlight spilling across the instrument panel. You were just reaching for the landing light switch when your virtual co-pilot looked over — waiting.

💬 You: "Landing lights off."
🤖 Co-Pilot: Click. Lights out. Smooth. Immediate.

As you pushed through 1,500 feet, the Checklist Reader chimed softly — the After Takeoff check had begun. The system recognized the climb phase and prepared for the next instruction.

💬 You: "Gear up."
🤖 Co-Pilot: Hydraulics humming. The wheels retract cleanly.

💬 You: "Flaps up."
🤖 Co-Pilot: Flaps adjust automatically, right on cue.

No keyboard juggling. No searching through menus. Just your voice — and a cockpit that reacts as if a perfectly trained assistant were sitting beside you.

Later, approaching cruise altitude, you glance at the new voice-control mappings you set up the night before. Every command behaves exactly the way you designed it. Every checklist item can now trigger real simulator actions. It’s your workflow, your phrasing, your aircraft.

This isn’t just another update.
It’s your first real step into a fully interactive, voice-driven cockpit in MSFS 2024.

If that sounds exciting, you might want to grab Checklist Reader 1.0.8.0.
Your new co-pilot is already waiting.
