Showroom

Last updated: 15 June 2026

The Showroom is the black market where you buy aircraft. No questions, no paperwork, no refunds. It is the sixth tab in the left sidebar and is open from the start. Where the Hangar manages the planes you already own, the Showroom is where you add new ones to the fleet.

Buying here is the in-game purchase only. You still need that aircraft installed in MSFS 2024 to fly it, so check your MSFS hangar before you spend.

Browsing aircraft

Aircraft are grouped into the six classes, with each class as a section you can expand or collapse. Class 1 is open by default and the higher classes start collapsed. A class you have not unlocked yet shows a lock and the level you need to reach. There is also a search box to jump straight to an aircraft by name. For what each class is and what it can do, see the Hangar & Aircraft guide.

Each aircraft card shows:

A photo you can click to enlarge.
Cargo (in kg, with the pound equivalent), Speed in knots, Range in nautical miles, and the per-mission Rent fee.
The purchase price and a BUY button.
Badges where they apply: FREE STARTER (your no-cost starting light single), CUSTOM (an aircraft you added), and OWNED with a count if you already have one.

Buying an aircraft

Hit BUY and you get a confirmation showing the price, your balance before and after, and a reminder that owning the aircraft removes its per-mission rental fee. Confirm and it is yours, ready in the Hangar.

You need the cash up front. If you cannot afford an aircraft the BUY button is greyed out, so the bigger planes usually come after a loan. The bank in the Tablet offers a credit line that unlocks alongside each aircraft class. Once an aircraft is yours, you never pay a rental fee to fly it again, and your crew can fly it too.

Adding a custom aircraft

If a plane you fly is not in the Showroom, whether it is a DLC, a mod, or any other aircraft MSFS reports, add it yourself. Each unlocked class has a + Custom Aircraft card. There is a "Detect from MSFS" button that fills in the aircraft's title for you, then you set its class, cargo, speed and range. A custom aircraft is priced at the average for its class.

Custom entries can be edited or deleted later. If you own copies of one, sell those first before you can delete the entry. For how FS Kingpin recognises and maps the aircraft you load, see the Hangar & Aircraft guide.

Once an aircraft is in the Showroom or added as a custom, load it up from the Cargo tab and send it out.

The numbers in this guide reflect the current build and can shift with balance updates.
