May seem obvious, but I can't determine a way to delete flight plan entries from the glass maps. Say, you've made a mistake, or even if you would like to clear the entire plan. Using the Xcub panel here to practice this stuff. Maybe on other panels there is a more obvious way? Thanks

Hi, i can only find the "drone" camera and external/smart/internal sections. Also using the "toggle external/internal view" cuts my engines (throttles) Thanks Michael Moe

A bit of an older scenery but, if anyone's considering making a purchase, do have a look at my review before pushing the button. (Or don't. Spoiler alert: it's very good!)

A few months ago (08/30), I flew around Disney World in Orlando, Florida. At this time, I still had my GTX 1060 so I was flying in medium display mode. It was working fine but the level of details was not always optimal. At this time, here is the view I had from Disney World and especially the sphere at Epcot Center: Disney World and Epcot in MEDIUM Now that I have my brand new RTX 3070, I discover the world again in ULTRA mode now, it is so great !! But as I flew to Disney World again today, I was disappointed to see all the main buildings have disappeared and the scenery is poor: Same place in ULTRA (November) Is it because the buildings are not defi…

Probably because I have just started learning the Airbus A-320 (Mod), but I can't figure out how to choose an Instrument Approach as you near your destination. One has probably been selected at the World page, but what if ATC assigns a different one.? Dave Hinson

I had MCE working fine in MSFS prior to latest update, now when I start MCE, with Aircraft ready on the Runway, MCE just drops off, disappears. I am emailing (Ben and Gerald) the Guys from MCE, but is anyone else experiencing similar problems? Kind Regards Brian (BJ from OZ)

Ok so after the recent update I noticed a bad lag/tiling effect in the hanger with all of my same GFY settings. After checking that the update Switched me to windowed mode and I went back to full screen my FPS in graphics improved dramatically! Just for those that possibly overlooked the setting between window and full screen Switching back to full screen mode improved my fps dramatically!!!

Just came across this website https://worldtour.flights/ Its a website where users can upload flightplans, so you can download them. You can browse flightplans by terrain type, region, flight time etc, so you can select the right flightplan for your current mood and just start flying.

As the dedicated team at Working Title demonstrates almost daily, a dedicated group of freeware modders can achieve work similar (and in many cases even better work) compared to what payware developers deliver. Happy Days are here again!

Besides the known bugs, the default airliners in MSFS are way more complicated than the default ones in FSX, which you could learn very quickly jump in and fly without fooling around with. But they are not nearly as detailed as "study level" planes. For me personally I would love to have an analog 737.

Hello, The more way-points I add in my flight-plan, the less stable the video is : No problem at all if I only use a departure and an arrival airport. Flight-plan with departure, arrival + (1 to 20 way-points) : no stuttering. Stable video. Flight-plan with departure, arrival + (25 to 50 way-points) : some stutterings, not really stable video from time to time ... Flight-plan with departure, arrival + (90 way-points) : many stutterings, sometimes, 1" to 3 " picture freeze Of course, I use the same departure time and weather conditions, I just add or remove way-points. I fly in 1 to 3 circles around home, about 4 kms between each way-poin…

There are lots of online sources that list default AP keys. That's great if you know what they all mean. Can anyone point to a source that explains what the individual keys actually mean, and control? I.E "increase autopilot reference altitude." What is "reference altitude"? Lets say I activate FLC mode through a button assignment on a controller - Do the keys that refer to "reference altitude" increase/decrease the settings? Thanks

Hi, after the latest patch MSFS 2020 now supports the TCA quadrant (except the engine start switches), but I´m having problems setting the engines to idle. After calibrating the axis, there´s always about 15 to 20 per cent thrust left in the idle position.Has anyone been able to calibrate the thottle correctly? Cheers, Ingo

I have a problem I was using MSFS2020 using Xbox Game Pass to see if liked it and I had no problems with my flight controllers and figured I would purchase the Deluxe version thru the MS Store. I made the purchase and the download went very well but that’s when the problem started. I have the Saitek Pro Flight Yoke System and the HOTS Warthog with MFG Crosswinds Pedals. I set them in the sim and everything registers properly in the setup fields. On the runway when I move the controllers the yoke moves as it should when I try taking off and reach take off speed and I rotate the aircraft will not take off. Example the Cessna 172 rotate between 60 and 70 knots flaps ab…

I am new to MSFS 2020 but active X-Plane flyer. I am home based at KBFI and when flying in MSFS I miss seeing the Boeing aircraft parked on the flight line at Boeing Field, the older aircraft parked around the Flight Museum, etc. SInce these aircraft are really not transient, as at SEATAC (KSEA) for instance, I would have thought they would be permanent scenery. Any thoughts? Perhaps Drzewiecki Design will do his magic on Seattle Airports again? SR

This is geared more towards the GA side of simming and meant only as food for thought, I am not anti-modding and I both enjoy and appreciate the efforts of the modders in the community. (I particularly enjoy Robert Young’s turbonormalized Bonanza mod, for instance). Seeing that the default GA aircraft in MSFS for the most part appear to be underpowered and most of the mods are geared towards correcting that, I wondered if we are too obsessed with the POH numbers and getting the aircraft to match, when in reality this would not necessarily be the case. For example, this quote from the Aviation Safety Magazine, regarding real world operations: “The perfo…

After six weeks not using MSFS, I've returned to enjoy some scenic flights. Did something essentially change with the latest updates? I'm wondering why I'm getting a frame rate in the low 20ies with a GPU (2080Ti) running at 40-50% and a CPU (i7x 8 cores @ 4.8 GHz) running at 30-40%. Flying Southwest from Aspen with the default C172, shouldn't I get a better frame rate? If I recall correctly, when flying in rural area, I've always had a frame rate in the upper thirties or higher.
