  1. Hi Is there any GTN 750 in MSFS2020 that provides manual change of databases? Reality XP has this option in FSX, but they did not come to an agreement with MSFS 2020 as far as I know. Maybe MSFS2024? I am not looking for a database download option like Navigraph. I want to open a folder in my computer and change whatever database I want. Primary the NAV database. Thanks for all answers

    Freins Comanche Bonded brakes Bonjour, j'ai écouté vos conseils et j'ai acheté le Comanche A2A. J'ai un gros problème l'avion est collé au sol, impossible de le faire avancer. Je confirme avoir retiré toutes les ficelles (cordes) attachées au sol. Je confirme que j'ai inversé le sens du freinage dans les commandes de frein... mais rien n'y fait ?! Suis-je le seul ? J'ai fait une recherche et j'ai trouvé que ce problème existait déjà pour FSX... J'utilise comme commandes de vol le : Flight Yok System , et les Saitek pro Flight Rudder Pedals. Aide-Merci

    Hello all, I'm new to GSX, so pardon my ignorance with regard to how it's supposed to work. Can someone explain what I need to do to stop jetways from going to the right side of the aircraft? I was at KFAT today, and every jetway I tried to start at was situated to my right. Same thing happened at KLAX. I operate the Fenix A320, and I have GSX profiles for both airports (MSFS). TIA

    I've had this for some time and for some reason the 'base' seems to have gone and I can see the white aircraft that were parked up when the Bing Maps shot was taken. I have tried re-installing but that hasn't worked and I can't find a support page on Burning Blue. I don't suppose anyone else has come across this problem?

    Yet another video bringing to mind: "Only in America"! Stockton is centered in the big green valley of central California. For the "ball turret" simulator ride, you buy your own ammunition at the friendly store (not cheap and it's used up fast). The host is saying the turrets were not as uncomfortable as some books might lead one to believe. They let you (briefly) get your hands on one of the B17 yokes in flight. (Also not a cheap ride).

    Since the moderators closed the long beta thread around Tuesday, I had to put this in a new thread. The fps is faster and has less stutters in the non beta than in the beta, under all conditions. ----------- I think this is also true: the less powerful your computer, the more you will notice the difference between beta and non beta. --------- In the beta, both of these things helps to add fps: install the new DLSS.dll file (if you don't have a 4000 card). If you do have 4000 card, then install the new DLSSG.dll file. Use DX11 instead of DX12 --- But not being in the beta will still give better fps, regardless of any of the abov…

    I have noticed that the take-off trim suggested in the EFB is not enough for take-off. Once airborne, you have to add a lot more trim. The guy who has the youtube channel "into the blue simulations" has stated the same. How does one bring this to the attention of the developer to be rectified?

  15. Hello all, maybe someone has an idea. When i fly in the area of LILN (northern italy, close to Switzerlands Lugano Airport), i see a lot of these round forrests, placed randomly over the area. In Towns, on fields, on roads, while the real forrest areas are simply plain. MSFS fully updated with all WU and SU. Most settings on high. No mods or airport addons in this area. Never seen this in other areas of the world. I use Rex Accuseason (daily updates). What could be the reason? Always thought the Blackshark AI places the forrest according the BING satellite pictures. Here it clearly does not. When i fly 30 nm in any direction, it normalizes. Also i…

    Hi guys, I was wondering is there somewhere online where you can find good quality audio of safety announcements? Or is there a method for ripping that people use? I've tried getting some from youtıube but the audio quality is always poor. I use SLC and also have LukeAirTool but both are pretty useless without the audio I need. Much appreciated

    Hi Strange one tonight when i loaded up the PMDG 737 i noticed there was no in game toolbar (You know, the one that sits at the top, and drops down when the curser moves up to it). It seems as if it's just a setting, but for the life of me i cannot find it, nor have i seen anything mentioned about being able to disable it. Tried all the usual, reload the sim, change aircraft checked settings, still at a loss. Knowing me it's staring me in the face lol Any info appreciated.

  22. Dear Forum members, I am at my whits end in trying to resolve the CTD's of MSFS 2020 on normal startup. If i restart in basic mode ( it launches normally, but then I have none of my payware software. The community folder was moved using the Steam MOVE function and two full reinstalls where completed after initial problems with the first attempt. This all came about because i purchased a 2Tb SSD and wanted MSFS to be launched from there. The Video driver was downgraded, and the realtek sound software was upgraded to the latest version. I have allowed the system to manage the virtual memory space (it was defined by before by me before hand.) I have run …
