One of the first airliner add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator, the Aerosoft CRJ is now available as version 2 and compatible with MSFS 2024! Featuring a fully remodelled cabin, a revised flight model, full Navigraph Charts implementation and much more, v2 expands on the original aircraft with new features, bug fixes and expanded customization.
A new cabin model has been created for each of the four aircraft variants with full cabin and galley lighting. Small details such as lights for the emergency, exit, seat belt and no smoking signs and optional pilot and copilot avatars enhance the immersion even further.
Plan your flight with Simbrief import**, including weather information and an OFP viewer, as well as Navigraph Terminal and Enroute Charts with live updates for the navigation database.*
A new flight model based on MSFS’ new aerodynamics provides a more realistic behavior, closely reflecting the performance of the real aircraft. Automated GSX door handling and refueling support***, weather radar integration and a landing distance calculator add further depths to the simulation of this popular regional jet.
Finally, extensive customization options for knob acceleration, sounds, autopilot configuration, throttle calibration and more allow you to configure the aircraft to your liking.

After the V2 update many things got Fixed. Autopilot is working correctly 90% of the time but the physics are horrendes. It flies like a fighter jet, has stalls and turns like an F18. Sound are ok, could be improved.
This V2 version (Free to those of us who bought the V1!) has seen some good progress here. Still a visually excellent add on but now with some more views that were missing. It seems to fly a bit better but the sounds are still not quite where they should be.
