Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)

Just a bit frustrated tonight because I've been wanting a good quality VNY for years now! The ORBX version was "meh" for the short life it had, I hope others agree! Why has no one took on VNY? It is THE busiest GA airport in the country and with all the bizjets we have and will have in the future it is only right VNY gets the love it deserves. So much history there! I got my PPL out of VNY and have been employed at the airport for the last 9 years and have close relationships with a lot of higher ups! I can help ANY dev with reference photos and materials as I know this airport like the back of my hand! The “current” and only version we have …

Hi, I'm having A LOT of issues with MS2024. One of them is that NVIDIA Control Panel and Geforce Experience recognize MS2024 (I can't manage the fps, that are crazy and so the elevated temperature, the filters for the colour, the contrast, and so on...). I don't know what to do.

Where are the VIP missions with the passagers Cessna Longitude ? I cannot find any in the world ptimib

Has anyone ever gotten this thing off the ground? I was checking out all the helicopters and they all fly but no matter what binding I try this thing remains glued to the ground.

Oops, I meant Tone.

Hi all, You may or may not recall that I posted a thread on Saturday, notifying other SI users that the service was down (this was confirmed on their Discord). In that post, I also expressed some frustration with the SI service, as a customer since it's inception. I made a comment "The portal is down, so I can't even cancel". Humour rarely transmits well over the internet - especially not dry, facetious British humour. I can see how this could have been read as a cold 'threat' to close my account, but it wasn't intended to be as serious as that. Even if someone does post on AVSIM that they intend to close an account for a FS service, is this really such a …

Whichever aircraft I use (that has reverser capability), I get this problem when moving the throttle down/back: 1) Full throttle to idle works fine. 2) After throttle idle, the reversers kick in and gradually increase. 3) When I reach FULL reverser (throttle all the way back) the aircraft throttle snaps quickly back to throttle idle (and no reverser). I've tried all sorts of in game sensitivity settings as well as throttle calibration where available (eg. in FBW or Fenix A320) and can't stop this odd behaviour. I've also tried mapping the reverser axis to a rotary switch and using the keyboard/button to toggle reversers on/off, but that often kick…

Hi all I have the Fenix A 320 and I am unable to get the plane airborne. I have SimBrief. I have downloaded the flight. I have sent it to Avionics. It looks like all is in the MCDU. I can get Pushback . I have engines started and throttle up and i can see a snail moving faster than the plane either doesn't move or moves but as said I see a snail being faster. Is there a manual one can download in pdf? I cannot find a manual anywhere. I would love to get the Airbus set up from cold and dark and fly. I am unable to do this. Any Ideas what I am doing wrong? Thx Ian

I have no pilot showing in the cockpit in external view with both addon and default aircraft in 2024. Is this a known issue or just me?

Hello everyone, I recently upgraded my system (RTX 5070Ti, AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 32gb) and moved from MSFS 2020 to MSFS 2024. Overall, I’m very happy with the upgrade. I’ve been using GSX and the Fenix A320 extensively in MSFS 2020 without issues.However, I’ve recently run into a strange problem that I suspect may be related to GSX. Just before landing (around 1–2 NM out), the PFD starts behaving erratically, and the aircraft stops responding to joystick inputs. There is no noticable FPS drop. When I force-closed GSX via Task Manager, the issue immediately disappeared and control was restored. I know GSX shouldn’t normally affect aircraft controls, but given this…

Hi After a recent reinstallation of MSFS2024, I've been progressively re-introducing my aircraft. Most of them are working fine - streamed ones and 3rd party. But I cannot get the Inibuilds A340 to work. When I try to start the flight, I get all orange screens with the declaration that there has been a WASM failure. I've tried the 'Disable' and re 'Enable' routine, and I've Downloaded the aircraft in MSFS2024 but it makes no difference. Any thoughts of something I have or haven't done, or things I might try?

Howdy Gang: I've had this odd issue happen for the past week or so. I build a flight using simbrief, export it via the downloader. When the sim opens, I select the flight from the "World Map", "More", "Load/Save", "Load from this PC". The correct RWY shows under "From", "Select DEP", "RWY". But, when the sim loads, I'm usually at the opposite end. I have to back taxi. Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks!

I cant seem to get the toe brakes to release the parking brake. Using saitek rudder pedals. On any Aircraft. Any ideas? Thanks Mike

Hi folks, I’m currently trying my luck with MSFS 2024. At the moment I’m flying the Fenix in MSFS 2020 and have no problems at all. I also flew the Fenix in MSFS 2024 about six months ago and it worked fine back then. Now I haven’t used MSFS 2024 since before SU4. After reading that SU4 works very well, I tried the Fenix again yesterday. Up to the runway everything was fine. Then I lined up on the runway and applied thrust. The first thing that happened was that the aircraft pulled completely to the right. On the first attempt I tried to keep the aircraft on the centerline, but somehow I didn’t get proper thrust and couldn’t really fly properly. I was able to repr…

Members 563 I have just started to watch a detailed video of how to use Little Navmap. In the video, as the airports and flight paths are being laid out, starting with selecting the departure airport, everything is denoted in yellow. However, no matter what I do, everything I try to map comes out in red, even when all I have done is selected the departure airport, and instead of the yellow circle around the airport icon, I get a big red circle. I have updated the Airac data in Little Navmap and MSFS 2024 and then reloaded the scen…

After upgrading to MSFS 2024, I decided to install MSFS 2020 on a below minimum spec convertible 13-inch laptop, the Acer Spin 3. The laptop is a 2-in-1 with a touchscreen and an included stylus (pen). It works great as a tablet. It has an 1165G7 (11th Gen) cpu (2.8 to 4.7 Ghz quad core, 16 GB of RAM, a slot for an extra NVMe, and 512mb INTEGRATED Intel IRIS-XE gpu. It does NOT meet MSFS minimum requirements. To my surprise, MSFS worked. And it works well with a Flydigi Vader game controller or gamepad. Paired together, it's "Have MSFS Will Travel". Now you know what to do with MSFS 2020 after upgrading to 2024. You can also install it in your laptop. It'…

AIUI the Milviz Famous Flyer T-38 was supposed to be released with the PS5 version of MSFS back in early Dec, but so far there's been no sign of it. So I'm wondering if there's been any official word on what happened to it ? For example did the release of the excellent Aero Designs T-38A&C convince MS it needed to be held back ?

Hi All, With the Definitive Edition update dropping today (happy launch day!), I’ve been spending a lot of time digging into the systems again – especially switching things to manual to really understand what’s going on under the hood. The MD-11 is one of the most smartest aircrafts I've ever simmed on - The Electrics, Fuel, Pneumatics, and Hydraulics all can safely remain on AUTO for the flight. But what about on the DC-10? That requires fluency in the systems. So I've been doing many sim flights in the MD-11 and using the Q Switches to observe what the system does at various stages of the flight and I noted my findings. I'm also studying the 1976 DC…

Hello, At times the hat switch of my Honeycomb Alpha yoke is unresponsive for a few seconds in the cockpit view. In the external view, it works fine so I tend to rule out a poor contact. That is strange. I changed he RJ 45 cable but it did not fix the problem. Any idea? THX

Hi Everyone, Anyone see this problem pop up out of nowhere? I'm taxing along and all of a sudden I get bumped to the left and then thrown into the air. Jump to 9:30 into the video, thanks for any help!

It's been like this since ever, FS 2020 included... Most if not all of the default twins or multiprops in fs 2024 exhibit completely unrealistic prop effects when the critical engine is failled, and all of the mltiprop addons I own suffer from exactly that same limitation. I guess the default B58 is alread CFD-enabled, probably even the B350 (?), and the DC3, and now I have the Blackbird Simulations C130J and am able to fly it with #1,2,3 all failed and #4 at full power, in full manual mode, without having to care about it ??? Can someone please point me to an addon, preferably a free one, where the consequences of failling a critical engine show? I al…

Recently began wanting to do some lower n slower flying in MSFS 2024 as I've been pretty much limiting to airliner operation with SLC and BATC, and thought learning basic helicopter operation for sightseeing would be fun and has been. You can see these giraffe are spooked and run away as the helicopter approaches them on the Okavango Delta in Botswana. I expected to see some of this behavior when I installed Orbx' Jurassic Archipelago however the dinos seemed unmoved by my presence. Would have been very cool to have them chase me! I plan to add local helicopter excursions when I do my normal airliner flights to take in local scenery as interest piques. This addon, …

I wanted to use my WINWING PFP3N with aircrafts other than my PMDG 737 so i created this util to show me: Arr and DEP METARs ATIS Info for the arrival and departure airports Online controllers for the airport (based on the ICAO. Seems to not work with US becuase of difference between ICAO and callsign off controllers). Its free of course, and you can find it here if you are interested: https://flightsim.to/file/102789/vatsim-metar-atis-information-on-winwing-winctrl-pfp3n Some screens:
