Anyone know what the rotate speed, landing speed and stall speeds are for the Optica. I must be coming in too fast because I can't get it to slow down once I'm down. Roy

One of the issues I have with the current MSFS clouds is that they sometimes look like ash clouds instead of clouds. I've always thought if they adjusted contrast level/brightness/luminosity values, they could be much better. Recently, in the screen shoot forum, @Alaska738 posted some great screenshots of his flight. One of them was a perfect example (at least to me) of the clouds looking too much like ash. So, I dragged it into photoshop and applied a curve to the image which lifted the tonal values of the blacks and 3/4 tones of the image. I feel just by making that quick adjustment, they look so much more believable. I know programming is hard and it's not as simple as…

https://mikoulprostgrandprix.wixsite.com/rfdenglish RFD (Random Flight Generator9 seems to be another alternative for th epilot to whom need purpose to fly. I will try to see how it is but from the specs seems promising and it is free. The UI must be improved. UI is not resizible but selectable. Go to the "Resolution" menu at the top and select 1080 or 720 for better UI and restart the app. Happy Flying...

I know that there are a number of you using the g1000 NXi's capability for creating a direct visual approach to fields with no IAPs. From the recent posts on this subject I have been able to do the basic set-up, but have been unsuccessful getting getting it to follow a virtual GP to the threshold. I'm guessing this is due to not having a proper FAF? What would be the recommended FAF: +800 AGL? +1000 AGL? Does the NXi create the FAF position from the altitude input or do I need to also indicate a distance?

Linker had inadvertently added some other avionics addons to the community folder. I deleted all the Avionics addons and the problem went away. Now - how did those add ons get included in the Linker list? I have not modified it for several days and the Sim was running perfectly this morning. OH - Well

I'm noticing as I add more and more complexity it's become more common to have considerably poorer performance when landing at complex terminals. Prior to installing Simple Traffic and Bejan's Seasons, and prior to traffic departures finally reappearing now post SU8, I could always predict where I needed to adjust Terrain and Object LOD in pre-flight in order to insure having a smooth landing upon arrival w/o the need to stop and adjust settings, which I really never like to do. Today, flying out of KIAD in the 787-X HD, LOD's at 200/200, all else at Ultra, by 2-3 miles out from FSDT's KORD I could tell things were going to get dicey quickly. So I stopped the sim, and …

I have an inconsistent recurring issue with the Aeroplane Heaven P51-D's click spots: buttons like the battery, alternator and switches like mags won't animate when I click them. If I run through the checklist and click them anyway (no animation, no movement) the plane will start up as it should. But it's a little annoying that they are not in the correct position. This has happened on a fresh flight with a fresh restart. But it doesn't happen on every flight. Likely some conflict with something else in Community folder but wondering if anyone else has come across this (it does not happen with any other add-on). 🤷♂️

I just bought AirHauler 2 as I have become impatient for the best of all possible flight companion/career addons, that being FSCaptain. AH2 has very rudamentary 'flight monitoring' features (nothing compared to FSCaptain), but beyond that it is to me ultimately a glorified spreadsheet. I think I will use it, but as I really don't have a need to 'manage an airline company' per se, and I currently only use it for their 'Ad Hoc' flights, and be try to be happy with their one rather poorly done preflight safety announcement, and their very crude flight quality evaluation routine. I really loved FSCaptain which was the perfect balance of in-flight enhancement and a simpler …
