Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)

My apologies....🙂 The G1000 works just fine, even after update #7..

Please, I need help. I've s\watched tutorials about how to fly my new FS2020, but thhere is something wrong and I cannot understand why this happens,. Every time I try to fly somewhere, my flight seems to play by itself. It departs on its own as if it was on autopilot and goes on and on. I cannot take over amd fly the plane. For example, with latest update I wanted to see the new improvements around Los Angeles. I set up my A320 for take off from runway 25R, but it just takes off on its own and goes straight into the ocean , forever. I tried to set up a flight KLAX to KLAS, and the same thing happens. Please help.

Ok, so I did a couple more manual cache system tests on the Koh Chang region, VTKC . The most important thing is to have the rolling cache enable, since if you delete the region you downloaded on the manual cache tool, it will only be removed if you also delete the rolling cache. I tried to get a screenshot of the low quality, but it's not working all the time, mostly it will revert to offline You can see a difference in quality between, high does not really looks like the best quality you can get for this region : 58cm/pixel The clouds on the hills are from Bing Sat zoom level 14 to 19, buildings are the one from the online version and you can al…

I am planning on giving the A320 in MSFS another shot. However, I have no idea how to cycle through the different panels, such as to program the FMS, overhead panel, etc.. Where can I find this information? Also, is there a simple key command that does this? I am so used to the FSX/P3D keyboard commands but I am lost in MSFS. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Pete

Taxiing at KDEN my A320 was bouncing up and down, as if there are bumps in the terrain. Was only doing 20 knots and haven't had this at other airports. You can see the yellow taxiway line is uneven behind the plane. Anyone else getting this?

Hi all, the default sr22 says it has a cruise speed of 150kts yet a search of wiki tells me the most common version should be 180kts. This sounds more like it for 300hp. does anyone know which sirus is modelled and how much hp it has? thanks

Inbound, From their FB page today. I really hope they model feathered props with this. Seems pointless otherwise.

I have been trying to buy some scenery in Marketplace , but it looks like it is only available if you have a US Zipcode. Has anyone in Canada been able to buy items in Marketplace? Thank you RESOLVED: I had to change the region to Canada in my PC settings. It was set as USA and I never changed it when in bough the PC

hey y'all, quick question: i just fired up the alaska bush trip and it came preloaded with a course. However it's not showing up on the moving map. 1) Can someone tell me how to show the course on the map please 2) also i can't figure out how to get rid of the "insert before/after, etc" menu 😛. Back button doesn't work thanks for any help!

I know it has bug, and sometimes it seems to have a mind of its own, but the 747 has become pretty much my favourite aircraft to fly. I've just hopped around the world in it, and as I head home, and learn more of the quirks, I find it to be pretty enjoyable.

I was flying today for the very first time over photogrammetry area (Seattle) with my quite low-speed Internet (5 Mbps), then a bit over Ilulissat (Greenland) are here is my apocalyptic story 😉 Today I discovered my Internet working with higher than usual speed. So I was able to check the weather – it was good enough to risk a flight and check how are things going in the city, if there is anybody alive there. Here is what I have seen: the sea level higher than usual, several bridges and harbor structures still under water, there were some autonomous cars driving through the sunken bridges anyway, but no sign of trains, the high rise buildings in the downt…

Hi All, Sorry if there's millions of posts out there like this, I'm getting back into flight simming after 18 months out and decide to buy the Deluxe version of MSFS from steam, it downloads very quickly (within 5 minutes, a 500mb download) I go to start the sim and it doesn't start, has the program not actually downloaded, or is something else a miss? Thanks in advance

Just updated MSFS and I see they added Atlanta Jackson Airport amongst other things. Took a flight at night from KATL to Dekalb-Peachtree Airport in the Diamond Eclipse. I used to rent those planes before my old flight base at Schaumburg went belly up. Holy Smoke! I cannot believe how insane night flight is in MSFS! I had tried flying the Eclipse previously and gave up because I could not control it at all. Now it works great, not sure what they changed, but I am not complaining. Night flight is spectacular in MSFS. Cheers, Pete

Do you feel you deserve a treat? Are you struggling for present ideas for a special simmer in your life? Treat yourself and struggle no more! Following a request from one of my subscribers, I've published this definitive showcase video of the top 10 add-on airports for MSFS so far. And when I say "definitive", I of course mean "highly subjective" 😉 Enjoy, and let me know what you think.

After responding yesterday to a new topic in the Screenshots forum, I mentioned my interest in flying the Columbia River Gorge from Portland, Oregon, east until the confluence from the Snake River near the Tri-Cities area of Washington (Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland). Then today I read a great article in my current AOPA Pilot mag featuring Ken Jernstedt Airfield (4S2) at Hood River, Oregon. The article covered the taildragger flight school located there, the Western Antique Aeroplane and Automobile Museum (WAAAM), and the nearby and aptly named "Fruit Loop", a short driving loop through self-pick berry and fruit orchards, and wineries. What a great destination for a fl…

I remember from FSX there was a tutorial for tweaks and mods from Word Not Allowed’s he even have a Hardware and Software manual to get the most of the sim.. I have everything in ULTRA in 2K in a 15inchs display and I don’t feel like I’m getting the ULTRA from the SIM It definitely doesn’t look like the video ads from XBox.. but it’s getting kind of slow and honestly I have not clue what the sliders do when I move them.. My PC Specs are: Omen gaming Laptop (I know it’s not the best but it’s what I have) -4K display but I run the game in 2K -GPU RTX 2070 max q -CPU i7 9gen -Ram 16GB -HDD 1tb and 256 Ssd (sim is installed in the HDD…

https://flightsim.to/file/3881/lgkr-corfu-international-airport-ioannis-kapodistrias-v1-0 Most of you probably use Flightsim.to anyway but I thought I would post about this one as it is really excellent. Especially I had had a holiday with friends where our apartment overlooked the airport. CJ

Is there any way to turn down the ground wind effect? It is so annoying. Yes there should be some but at 10knots is almost unmanageable.

Hello: Is there a way to run Weather Force with "Live Traffic" on? It seems like since you must set weather to "Clear Skies" for Weather Force to operate, that negates the ability to use liv traffic. The only option to chose is "All Traffic? Am I correct? Is there work around? Thanks, Dave

Is this a setting I'm wrongly using or what? Have the night skies always been this bright? It's almost like dusk or dawn in the dead of night. Approaching Santa Barbara CA - looks pretty cool with the slightly glowing areas in the distance. But the overall night sky is way too bright. I feel like the HDR is trying to compensate or something. breightnight by Ryan Butterworth, on Flickr

Something has changed with a particular keypad requirement! The default up/down key on the keyboard allows for the panel to move, like raising you seat up/down. This function has disappeared along with the horizontal left/right movement. Can someone point me in the direction to rectify this? I've looked in Options - Controls - Keyboard but there seems to be no indication of these items. Martin

Trying to fly an approach to RWY 9 at KTEX, which is at 9,070'. I had set the ambient temp at 38° C, with no clouds and you see the OAT at 11,200' while on the ILS was 58° F. I had descended from 14,500' with no problem and then suddenly, just as I approached the IAF - the windows iced up. The ice did not melt until I had been on the ground at 100° F for a while. Seems unusual? This has also happened other times in clear air at temps above 10°C but I ignored it at that time.
