I am sitting here 13+ years after i made my first virtual flight. For the past months i have been more active than ever. Flying everywhere , enjoying myself. Of course MS and Asobo are the first to thank for providing the platform. BUT being in IT field, loving my job for 25+ years , i am thinking of all these GREAT guys that spend their time to provide us with great mods for all the aircrafts that we fly. I wonder how , WE as a community, can show them our appreciation and i am not talking about money , i am talking about a way to show to them that their nights and days are well spent. That we appreciate and love the fact that they freaking LOVE what …

Hello all, merry xmas! I have a subscription to navigraph because I like their charts app. Is it worth installing the navigation database too? I use the WT CJ4 mod, and when the Aerosoft CRJ is out I'll buy that too. I fly on Pilotedge and Vatsim too. Does the database work seamlessly, or can it cause problems for addon aircraft? Thanks :)

No mods, nothing in the community folder I fear Asobo has broken the Longitude for the time being. I can confirm it hunts left and right commanded by the flight directory. Will not capture or follow ILS 28R and ORD. Last night flew the same approach no problems with mods. Flight director commands pitch up and stall warning sounds. Im not sure if are wonderful mod makers can solve this one. As I expected wonderful Christmas present Thanks Asobo

I started the patch download and about 8 Gb into the download my computer overheated and shut down. I've fixed the overheat shutdown problem, but now whenever I try to run the simulator, it just hangs at the checking for update screen. Has anyone else had this problem and been able to resume the download ?

So I have reached out to the site in question but for some reason I can o longer log in to post in the forums. Am I missing something here or is the same file being offered for free on Flightsim.to "for sale" for $20 on another site? Am I missing something? https://store.flightsim.com/product/mkvy-productions-egkk-gatwick-for-msfs/ https://flightsim.to/file/2774/gatwick-airport-egkk Aren't these the same?

I knew this day would come. I had the sim working perfectly. I kept reading where many people where having problems with this and that. But my setup was working perfectly. Well yesterday was the day. I removed all of the mod folders from the community folder and proceeded to update the sim. Now, whenever the progression line gets to the end on the "New Activities" page the sim freezes. I'm on my third uninstall and reinstall. Does anyone have any idea as to why I cannot get the sim to reinstall?? My own personal opinion is they need to make these updates OPTIONAL!!! So frustrated as it was working well for me.

Evening everybody! My review of Sim-Wings' Munich is now up. This will be my last review this side of Christmas, and possibly for the year. Thank you all very much for all the encouragement and feedback you've provided since I started doing these reviews - you've kept me going. Hope you all have a great Christmas. Stay safe and well, and I'll see you on the other side. 🙂

I have the MS Store version of MSFS. Went into the Store yesterday, it said there was an update for FS, and I downloaded it... it was just about 1 gigabyte. Double-click the FS icon to launch it, and I get a UAC prompt ("Do you want to let this app make changes to your device?"). I click "yes" and get the same prompt again. Click "yes" again, the prompt goes away and I get a red error window that says "This app can't open. Check the MS store for more info...". When I go into the Store and hit "Get updates", none are found. MS flight simulator version shows as 1.12.13.0. Last time this happened I had to uninstall and reinstall the whole program. Am I going to …

I recently bought FlyTampa LAS and Chicago by Drzweicki and experienced 2 CTD's while approaching each scenery, and one CTD while loading my flight from LAX-LAS.. I know the Chicago scenery has issues but i wasn't sure if there was any issue with LAS. Is there a way to check what caused it? LAS crashed while on Vatsim on final to 1L. I have the AppCrashView program but have now idea how to interpret the data since I am not technical. Any suggestions?

I did a search on the forums and elsewhere but couldn't find any info on the new "Home Cockpit Mode" under the Camera options. The description says it "places the camera in the center of cockpit and disables the virtual cockpit from rendering". This sounds like what the old "W" key used to do and have been wanting this from the beginning. Problem is, toggling it on puts the camera in the center but the cockpit is still in your face. Wondering if anyone has figured out how to make it do what is says?

Whenever I try to pop out the PFD (modded A320), FPS goes into a slide show. I tried moving it around, reducing the size to no avail. When I close it, FPS return to normal. I'm using windowed mode. It worked before, so I'm not sure what's wrong. Any suggestions? Full screen?

Hi. So I did the Charles De Gaulle landing challenge with the A320, and also the new airliner landing training tutorial with the A320. In both the landing challenge and the tutorial, Asobo set the autothrust for the A320 to 150 knots. So in general, if I don't modify the fuel or weight of the A320, should I set the autothrust to 150 knots when landing the A320? Or should I set autothrust to a little lower than 150 knots when landing, for example, 145 knots or 140 knots?
