    We had the opportunity to speak with Nick from FlightFX, very insightful and touched a several topics regarding the Hondajet and their upcoming project. Thought I'd share it here hope you guys enjoy! Link to the live show replay is in the podcast description as Nick also showcases the upcoming Vision Jet. https://anchor.fm/closedtraffic/episodes/

  2. Ok, so I just started noticing that none of my add-ons via Addons Linker were working. I mean no aircraft, no airports, no scenery which all used to work before. Through researching threads I finally found out I have two community folders installed. I have one under the directory where I install MSFS: F:\MSFS\Community and a 2nd one at the following path: C:\Users\x\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community All my "purchased" addons are being installed there like PMDG and FlyTampa. I think this happened after I tried unsuccessfully to install AIG using Addons Linker. Only when I went "default" did …

    I haven't flown the Kodiak in about 5 months. I have been busy with the C 310 and the Fenix A 320, and decided that I needed to get back into the Kodiak, which I used to fly all the time. The other two aircraft, don't have the G 1000 NXI, so I spent about 20 minutes just trying to figure out how to set the map display from Heading up to North up. Then I forgot you have to load the flightplan from the MSFS load menu. How to configure the autopilot, which vertical climb mode to use, ow to declutter the map, etc. etc. On the second flight I felt like was in semi control of the aircraft, IFR from Teterboro in the New York to New London CT . I think I will spend a few days g…

  4. I posted this in the PMDG user-to-user forum, got 41 views and no replies so I thought I'd take a chance here. I am wondering if I need to set radios a certain way to get AI Radio Comm to work normally. For a few days I never saw/heard any read-backs by my pilot, and now I don't hear ATC but just my readback! I'm hoping there is a setting in radios that might change this. The AS CRJ had similar issues that were fixed in an updated.

  7. MSFS was working fine two days ago, but when I tried to start it in the afternoon, I kept getting the error message 0x80004005. I managed to find a number of suggested 'fixes' in various forums - none of which worked. Eventually, and following a suggestion, I uninstalled MSFS (premium deluxe). Now that's where I am, but I cannot reinstall MSFS either through Xbox app or Microsoft store. When I try and reinstall through Xbox app I get error message 0x00000001, and when I try and reinstall through Microsoft store, the process starts - it says it is downloading - and then it stops downloading and the download cloud icon is replaced with try again - which repeats the same pro…

    Has anyone had an issue with the G1000NXi stopping a pre selected altitude 300 feet below? I've done 4 tests now and every time the autopilot stops climbing 300 feet before the selected alt. Altimeter is set correctly. I have a ton of hours in the Kodiak with the most recent G1000NXi and I've never seen this before.

    What are the current recommended Autosave tools - I know FSUIPC has an option but is there anything else that is worth considering ? Mostly using pmdg 738 these days.

    Hi all, Was looking at the different editions of MFSF, and wondering if the deluxe/premium are worth it. Basing it on the fact that as a gamepass subscriber, I already have access to the base version, something that would not seem to ever go away as with all MS first party titles, and mainly the fact that while I know you get an extra 5/10 planes and 5/10 airports with dlxp/premium respectively, are those addons worth it, being I see there's a lot of 3rd party ones being released? For example, I saw there's an A320 included, yet there's already the Fenix A320 released which is supposedly much better? I know the 320 comes with base anyway, but for the dlx/p…

    Hello Pilots.....I just added Neofly to msfs and I really like it but have a problem. I started out on the career Mode and the Cessna 152 that you start out with in career mode and I have a problem that when I start up the Cessna the radio's blink on and off rapidly and the ignition key keeps on trying to crank even engine is already running? Has any one experienced this problem? I really cant fly a mission with the 152 with all that going on. Thanks for any help.

    Quoted from a Navigraph mail I received today: Many of you have been inquiring about the release of Navigraph Charts 8 and we would like to take this opportunity to give you an update.

  14. I have AIG Traffic installed in FS2020. I select a flight that starts at Heathrow EGLL and the Traffic map shows those aircraft that are parked on the stands. Once I go to the flight and use the Drone Camera, the aircraft on view are nothing like than those indicated on the AIG Traffic map. Can anyone suggest what I might have done wrong or make any suggestion to correct this. Grateful for any help.

    As PRO ATC SR needs a MakeRunways run after you install sceneries, I'm upset about the time it takes. Is there any possibility to speed this up? maybe with some miracle settings in a cfg file so thatMakeRunways can skip files (like standard airports etc) Any help is appreaciated, thx

    So I bought LEIB from iniBuilds yesterday to go with my shiny new 737 800. Flew from EBBR - LEIB last night no issues. Tonight I'm loading in from LEIB, using 737 800 and each time I get a CTD with no error. Not sure if this is the new airport, issues with 737 800 or something else? Anyone else bought inibuilds LEIB? Thanks

    I've read that SU10 would not use the content.xml anymore. In contrast to this, I have also read that content.xml can now be used for priority settings only. Is this summarized somewhere, does it need a user input? I became aware of this, when I read an add-on description where the developer wrote that the add-on would be placed with "very low priority". I'm wondering how they would do this automatically? I have the current SUI10 beta active but the time stamp of my content.xml is early August - probably a date before I've joined the beta.

    I am considering the installation of a beta version of the ELITE TQ drivers for MFS 2020 because that is the only hardware Controller I have for twin engine operations. The ELITE drivers install FSUIPC 7 to "communicate" with MFS. I would like to learn, from MFS FSUIPC7 users, if everything is fine with SU10 beta ? Thx !!!
