After being able to take off and land at my selected airports using the pre programmed flight for many weeks, I now find that this no longer works. I take off either with the first officer or me taking the controls when I selected auto pilot in the past the flight is controlled and takes me to the destinated airport and on final I took control and landed successfully. This no longer works, after take off when I select "auto pilot" the aircraft no longer takes the correct route and the aircraft just turns right non stop until it loses height and spins to the ground. I have spent hours doing every option on the flight control panel and the options. What went wrong ?? I have…

Is there a possibility to remove the blue/green box around the parking spot at destination without losing guidance to this parking spot after landing? Most probably I overlooked the option where to dis/enable this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Hans

Very curious as VR Support is coming, I'm ready to plunge into MSFS 2020.... Bush flying is what I'm interested in, what aircraft are available for bush flying?

Hello, Since a few days now (I don't remember since when exactly) I am unable to pan around and move the eyepoint view in the cockpit using/moving my mouse and the right button. Not impossible that I made a mistake in some affectations in the recent past but I cannot find the answer how to restore that function. Does anybody know how to solve it ? Thanks a lot. Cedric PS: english is not my mother langage...so apologize for any mistakes...

Is there a way to reorder the waypoints when developing a flight plan using the World Map, or are we stuck with the initial order determined by the sim? I can add or remove waypoints, but don't see how to switch the order of them. Thanks, Al

For no apparent reason, my flight today from KORD-KRDU was blown up at FL370 out of the blue. Flying the A320 with AP fully engaged, the left engine went out tried to re start to no avail, then the right, FUEL was not the issue. any one seen this before? I was looking for MAYDAY call on pilot2atc does it have such an option? any thoughts?

https://flightsim.to/file/2359/jomsom-airport-vnjs-nepal I'm snowed in, probably for at least a couple of days, with nothing better to do but pet the cat, roughhouse with the dog, shovel, and conduct search's for cool freeware and go on a download spree. Posting the good stuff here. 😋

I have been enjoying flying the Cessna Longitude but decided to update the CJ4 with working title's new mod and try it out. What a great handling airplane. I really want to switch from the Longitude to the CJ4 but I'm not familiar with the FMC. Been looking for a good tutorial on how to use the FMC in the CJ4 but haven' t found one yet. Anyone have any recommendations?? Thanks. Rodger

Hey guus, Anyone followed the twitch live Milviz 1 or 2 days ago? Would you know what was said roughly? Thanks a lot 🙂

ATSimulations Cri Cri has just had a major update. The engine sounds are completely different now and you can easily hear ATC over them. The flight model has been improved it no longer wobbles near as much. It's altogether a much better plane now.

The Beautiful engine shutdown sound is always interrupted by the “Continue Screen” Is there already a solution for this ?

I've been flight siming like forever (started on a Commodore Amiga computer). I don't remember ever trying to fly a plane that was just impossible to fly manually (i.e. without autopilot). I'm not a real life pilot, never flown in a general aviation aircraft but as an engineer my mind tells me this CAN"T be even close to the real thing. That thing rolls and pitches like a bull ride. But I've never found much complaints from the community. So either there's something wrong with my installation or I'm getting to old to play arcade games.

If you have checked out the pics in the FTX forums, they look impressive! https://orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/203005-announcing-landmarks-singapore-city-pack-for-microsoft-flight-simulator/ Made me watch Crazy Rich Asians again. 😀 All I'll need to complete the city is Imaginesim's outstanding WSSS in MSFS.

I am making a flight from Sabadell (LELL) to Seu D'Urgell (LESU) Last waypoint is UPISA then the plane must start the approach (turn right), but in my case the plane combeback to LATRO turning left instead of turning right to the approach What is wrong at the flight plan? why the AP don't make the FP correctly? thanks a lot

Hi, Finally got my hands on a Thrustmaster Airbus Quadrant at long last! Quite impressed with it to be fair, after I got all the sensitivities set up properly so that the detents match up in the stock A320. One thing I just noticed is that it appears that only the engine 1 throttle actually affects thrust on both engines? If you just move engine 2 throttle, the bug moves on the engine display so it's definitely calibrated correctly, but the actual thrust doesn't increase with it. If you move engine 1 throttle on its own, both engines spool up. Is this a bug?

I see people always complain about CTD's like it's Osobo's Fault. For me I can count the number of CTD's I have had with MSFS2020 since Aug 19 on one hand. What causes 99.99% of them can be summarized by three different causes. None of which are Osobo's fault 1> Overclocking- CPU, memory and GPU. I set my CPU back to Factory, My memory at SPD speed in bios. I do overclock my GPU using Rivatuner but I burn it in. If I do have a CTD I back down the GPU settings a little. 2> Addon Software There are many issues with software. Even the best developers release addons the cause CTD's under certain conditions. 3> Addon Software Conflicts …

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yQW5KSPa3w Hi I have been watching the above video and was wondering if it would be worth waiting on FS 2020 to be released for X Box? My current PC is 13 years old and I am not in a position at present to purchase a new one to run 2020, so I thought X box would be a good alternative specially with the new products in the video becoming available..Any thoughts? would I be missing out on any features that I could only get with a new pc..Thank You...John

I saw on Aerosoft's Euro site there is a update to make the led lights work. Has anyone got them to work? I ran the update but no led lights.

With most games, when you switch from full screen to windowed mode, the window will be resized accordingly to the resolution that you have chosen. I play on a native 4K display. For example, when I play Battlefield V in full screen and then change my resolution down to 2560x1440 and select 'windowed mode'. The game will switch to window mode and set it to the proper size and I won't be able to drag the corners to resize the game window. That's how it's meant to be. But in MSFS when I switch from a full screen 4K mode to a windowed 2560x1440 mode, the window takes about 85% of my screen, and I am able to drag the corners to resize it down. It should automatically resize th…
