Following on the heels of the version 6.10 release, Laminar Research has addressed a number of issues in its popular flight sim, X-Plane, in its newest update, version 6.11. The new version adds better joystick support and fixes a problem causing rivers to be too wide. In addition, designers are offered more flexibility with control surface placement.

Two versions are available for download: a full version and a patch. The full version of 6.11 also adds a few fighters not included with the 6.10 release.

X-Plane is a modular general-aviation flight sim that allows people to design and fly a variety of aircraft around the world. Recently, version 6.10 significantly increased the detail in the terrain environment, along with adding a number of improvements.
