Got this, this morning in an email. In case you didn't get it. Version 1.9.6 – July 7 2023 New Feature ----------- The FDE has been revised to not require quite so much power on final. Load stations and CG have been modified to closer match the real aircraft. Cameras have been modified to accomodate the revision of the CG. You'll notice the different camera view right away, the default pilot view is further back and a bit lower, we'd like your feedback on this change. The aircraft should be a little less stressful to land with considerably less power required to maintain speed on final. There's slightly more lift during the flar…

Anybody using Imagine Simulations KATL in MSFS? I used it with P3D and thought it was good. The preview screenshots for their MSFS program don't look that good or as detailed.. PKuhn KGYR

Can't believe I've never seen this clip before: High degree of skill there, from one moving ship to another with sling loads - Bravo Zulu. Makes me wonder if we'll see anything like this in MSFS 2024. I doubt we'll get this specific helicopter model from any developer, but I think a Chinook is still in the works for those of us who want a heavy-lift model in the current sim.

I installed the Drzewiecki version of KDCA but I found a problem with the alignment of RW19 which puts my aircraft in the grass 50 feet or so to the left of the end of the runway. Deleting the Drzewiecki KDCA version leaves me without a KDCA version. I don't quite remember if I had to delete the stock version before installing the Drzewiecki version. Is it possible to recover the stock version, and if so, how? Thanks, Jim Driskell

Captains!Hello and welcome to your weekend update for 15JUL23.I have quite a few topics to touch, so lets dive right in!PMDG 737 for MSFS: New Updates Pending:We have just pushed a new series of updates to our beta team for the entire 737 series. There is nothing earth-shaking in this series of tests, but we have made quite a few changes behind the scenes in preparation for final testing of the Universal Flight Tablet, so we wanted to push these changes to the testing teams and then out to you in order to reduce the number of moving parts as we enter final testing of the tablet. We anticipate pushing these updates to you as a micro update in the week ahead, with the updat…

Here’s a short collection of useful documents for the A320. At the end of 2021, Airbus announced a Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) amendment that included updated checklists. Among the most notable changes is the end to the “down to the line” and “below the line” concepts. I’ve included both the old and the revised checklist, linked from my Google Drive. I’ve also included up-to-date normal procedures (including flows), as well as limitations. Revised (2022) checklist: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J6dqgYRB2HWluDktpCUD6eCsRlmp2EGM/view?usp=drivesdk Old checklist: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kxWsWzO8_ktYiz7rpFRzC6nKRIviwEYE/view?usp=d…

All, Recently downloaded the latest version of the ATR and have a problem. I really thought I would get to to the bottom of this, as i used to fly the ATR in FS 2004 back in the day.....however here I am asking advice. I cannot get engine light on E2 on either aircraft to use HOTEL mode..... the majority of the time. I have followed various checklists to the letter and have had success 20% of the time. In short I power up from Cold & Dark, Batts, External Power, place route in FMC, check fuel follow checklists etc. Fuel pump 2 to run starter to A, B or A&B push starter 2 button, wait for NH to increase above 10% and place condition l…

Discovered this recovery vessel transporting an alien vehicle towards Leith Docks in Edinburgh! Perhaps to be displayed beside the Royal Yacht Britannia?😁🛸 Not sure which vessels package created this but I think the only one I had active was Global AI Ship Traffic MSFS which does have easter eggs, so it seems the likely source.

Anyone know how to disable? I have my fps locked at 62 (could go much higher) but I can't even do 2x speed. It won't let me even though my fps are at least 62. This seems to vary by development version update. Some updates I can increase sim to 4x and others I can't even do 2x.

In my recent Fenix A320 flights, I've noticed in situations where I've elected to start my flight on the runway in a relay for takeoff panel state, I'm showing an error message 'FUEL AUTO FEED FAULT', along with a Fault light on the Fuel Mode select button and a master caution. Not sure what the issue is or how to correct it. Anyone?

Can someone please tell me what is going on? Completed a flight on Friday. All went well. Fired up the sim this morning and this is what I'm greeted with when I reach the point of choosing my departure airfield. No search option and also no "Fly Now" button nor "Set Time" either. 😒 I tried uninstalling two Windows updates (that parked themselves into Win11 - the day before, I believe(?)) but they seem to be of the type that cannot be uninstalled. https://ibb.co/BtGHf5Q Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, not sure if it's just on my end or not, but are we not able to definitively save all changes to the aircraft state? eg: not only do I want the aircraft to load up in Cold & Dark, but other options from Sync Barometer, Radio Altitude Callouts and other features contained in the EFB. It seems that these are not being saved permanently when I load the aircraft up. Considering there are 2 saves in the EFB, ie Airline and Default. Despite pressing either of those, or not pressing either of them leads to the same conclusion. Haven't found any definitive info on this (ie video or text) Appreciate any assistance.

Hello, Has anyone have any issue with MSFS 2020 after the last World update or latest updates?? Because, I have. One is that when I try to open the graphics overlay it messes up my screen and I'm unable to adjust the graphics filters. The window for the graphics overlay sometimes causes limits to the mouse movements or it display a very small window and can't change the filters. Another issue is that with PMDG 737-800 when I take-off it automatically gives me a failure which is : A sys hydraulics, but I have all Failures settings off. No matter what I do, whether I clear all, service all,ect its still gives me the Failure. I have read m…
