Toolbar Pushback freeware by AmbitiousPilots has been a staple in the MSFS community since its initial release on May 23, 2021. With over half a million downloads, it has become one of the most popular tools for flight simulation enthusiasts. Last updated in March 2022, the freeware version has garnered significant acclaim. Eager to capitalize on its success, Aerosoft announced last August that they would be taking the tool to the next level by introducing the Toolbar Pushback Pro.
Scheduled for release on February 22, the Pro version is a multiplatform tool available for MSFS on PC and Xbox. The emphasis is on enhancing realism when the aircraft is on the platform, preparing for departure. Aerosoft’s decision to develop a Pro version was spurred by the developer of the freeware version expressing interest in expanding its reach to the marketplace and Xbox. However, ensuring the continued existence and support for the freeware version was a priority for Aerosoft, emphasizing their commitment to supporting the community.
Despite the upcoming release of the Pro version, Aerosoft reassures users that the freeware version will persist and receive functional updates. The Pro version, while offering additional features, will be competitively priced, making it an attractive option for users seeking a more comprehensive experience. The move is particularly beneficial for Xbox users, providing them with an advanced toolset for an enhanced flight simulation experience. As the release date approaches, the anticipation builds for Toolbar Pushback Pro, promising an even more immersive and realistic simulation environment for MSFS enthusiasts.
