Our application is currently in Alpha. We have been working really hard to provide a career mode for MSFS and Xplane that is affordable for everyone. We've decided a freemium business model where most of the software is free. When I say most, I mean almost all of it is going to be free. It's going to be a full features software without any additional cost. We believe in providing the most value out there for the whole community. Future expansion will be focused on specific features that are not necessary but enhanced the functionality of the software. We will never gate a feature we believe is necessary behind a paywall. If we build a function for an expansion that we…

I just flew up the Florida east coast starting at Fort Lauderdale airport and the coastline looked like a nuclear holocaust. I was in the Bonanza G36 Mod, MSFS 2024. I am using the SU5 Beta. The only Florida addon I have is the Samscene Sightseeing Miami amd it is placed near the bottom of the package reorder list. I have photogrammetry on. There were no real looking buildings. I was at about 2000 feet altitude. Does the Florida eastern coastline really look that bad? If not, suggestions of what I may have set up wrong? Thanks.

IN Beyond ATC, whenever I click on any box for binding, it flashes on/off quickly and sets any choice to button 17. If I disconnect my Velocity Flight Yoke this does not occur if I use keyboard only Velocity one updated to 1.50 Any body, cold or warm, know about this ?

I am curious if anyone knows if the BMW original subscription airports are MSFS 2024 Compatible. Also, I am aware that the BMW & AmSim airports are now under Glideslope.pro, but I am not sure if the BMW airports fall under this umbrella. Thanks in advance! Cheers, Pete

Fired up the CRJ for the first time in a couple of years, updated to the newest version, huge step forward. Problem is that every flight I've taken, I'm getting close to cruise and am getting random engine shut downs. I'll relight it but then 5-10 minutes later, the same thing happens. Finally called it quits. Any idea what the problem is? Can't be a keybind issue, I was on autopilot and wasn't touching the keyboard or controls. I really want to like the CRJ, it's such a nice break from just being a systems manager on the Fenix (or even the MAX). Any ideas what the issue is?

For the younger generation, Bowerman airport means nothing. It’s a small GA airfield on the Pacific North West Coast near Seattle, Washington. For the older FSx/P3D simmers, it should remind the Orbx freeware scenery that set the quality standard at that time. So, let’s bring back souvenir and have a quick bit at Lana’s Cafe. It’s free to download: https://flightsim.to/file/62459/bowerman-airport-vintage-edition-khqm Perfectly located, KHQM could be the perfect starting point to explore this awesome area. With it’s 6-24 asphalt runway of 5,000 feet (1,524 meters, ILS runway 24), KHQM is promoted as “Only Jet-Capable Airport” by the local authority. It will match GA t…

Haven't flown the A350 in a while and just reloaded it into 2024 and just going down the runway, trying to take off. It pitches up uncontrollably and crashes. Yes it's the latest version. Just curious if there's something I've missed since I've been away from the A350? I quit trying to fly it because the frame rates were so bad but now on my 3080 capped I'm getting 60 frames per second and it's smooth. It just seems incredibly odd that a pay-ware, and yes, expensive add-on, all of a sudden is just pitching up and crashing. Any ideas? Thanks.

Not the simulator itself, the ridiculous XBOX App sign-in requirements if one changes their email password. I changed my email password today and fired up MSFS 2024 and get XBOX prompted to enter my email ... but due to a long standing bug (since 2024 was released) the dialog box where I enter my email will not take keyboard input ... so I'm unable to authorize MSFS 2024 to load. The recommended solutions of sign-out of MS Store and XBOX App, then sign back in doesn't work (makes no difference). The only way I was able to make it work was with copy my email and the just rapidly keep click on the email entry text box in the XBOX App dialog until by pure luck…

Hi, I have the glideslope version of KLAS and it was working fine the other day. Look at the pink/purple. What causes this? I checked my Library and there's only one KLAS installed. Also, for laughs, this was my first flight in PMDG's -600 and notice the pilots! LOL! I shut everything down and the plane was ok but KLAS wasn't, even with a different aircraft there. Any help would be appreciated. Jack

I am not sure if this has been like this before sim update 5 since I just bought it today, but the heading and alt hold don't work. Autopilot can only maintain attitude. Any comment? Thank you

If they had posted how much does not function in 2020 but all works in 2024 I would NEVER have spent the money. I am quite upset about it as it NEVER should have been offered in MSFS2020 in the marketplace. The DG does not function AT ALL. Mouse is DEAD on the 2 dials. The same goes for the VOR. The Autopilot is non-functional and the breakers do not function. I can understand in 2020 the breakers not working. I watched a video of the airplane someone bought in 2024 and ALL these items worked fine. I have been buying Carenado aircraft since they FIRST started as a company. VERY used to )(#*&^)($&()...... I thought that all ended......WRONG!!!

Being relatively new to MSFS, I was wondering if there is fix for this issue or if it has already been discovered and discussed. I couldn't find any reference to it on the MSFS Official forums. There seems to be a gross conceptual error in the sim regarding condition levers in free turbine turboprops. Interesting in that it was correct in previous MS based simulators. In MSFS the condition levers add to the power already selected by the throttles (power levers). The condition levers are only supposed to set the idle N1. For most King Airs there is a low idle (~62%) and a high idle (~70%) set by the condition levers. If the power levers are set to a level such…

Hello everyone, I’m looking for some advice or help with a small project. My name is Jozef Van Ingelgem I know that AIG has internal tools that can compile/decompile flightplan data for MSFS, and I was wondering if anyone here would be willing to help me create a very small standalone tool similar to the old Traffic Tools (TTools) from FS2004/FSX. I am not a programmer myself, but with the help of ChatGPT I have a clear idea of what the tool should do: Decompile MSFS offline AI traffic files into three editable TXT files (aircraft.txt, airports.txt, flightplans.txt) Compile these three TXT files back into valid MSFS offlin…

This whole default/dynamic registration is driving me nuts. I have PMDG's 777-200ER installed, i got a few liveries for it and went on to configure the aircraft in order to obtain a default configuration which i use across all my fleet - I don't care about "operator realism", so i want just a single one. The problem here is that when i select one model and want to save the config as default, instead of gettting a save with the CS-TSX registration which is the aircraft i'm using, i am getting a CR-DOH which is this dynamic thing generated by the simulator. Does anyone know how can i stop this from happening? It also paints this default registration on the SWS Pilatus …
