I have the latest Bonanza Turbo installed. Post update, the center of gravity is so far back, that any throttle has the tail hitting the ground. Is this because of the Bonanza Turbo (community) in place? Anybody else had this? No other changes, other than just loading in the Bonanza and with the reported back oriented center of gravity (balance). Is the Bonanza Turbo v3 not compatible with the current update? That is what I have installed.

Is there a way to make the external views of aircraft look non distorted like a fish eye lens view that is now used? It doesn't look realistic to me and detracts from my flight sim experience. Thanks

It appears the offset localizers are fixed. Tried a number of US airports with them and all worked properly.

My understanding is: bush flights discovery flights landing challenges detailed airports (large airports) elevation data Is there anything else? Is there always new elevation data? Is the satellite imagery improved? I usually fly GA so the large airports don't interest me and the various flights aren't that important to me. What am I getting in exchange for the storage space it takes up?

Empty community folder user.cfg is read/write enabled 500 Mb/sec connection Downloaded and decompressed 4.84GB (98% of 4.96 GB) very quickly. At that point I see a message [196/214] - Please Wait and the the installer goes back to 3.77GB and quickly reloads up to 4.84 GB - over and over I stopped the download and then restarted FlightSim - I then see a message ADDITIONAL DISK SPACE / AVAILABLE SPACE -/198.93 GIB and pressing CONTINUE or BROWSE does nothing The SSD dedicated to FlightSim has 198GB free space on it. I cancelled the install and restarted FlightSim and it now CTD while showing the stone wall and parapets I then restart the sim in SA…

MSFS2020 represents a new generation in PC based flight simulation. It presents the world in which we fly - the earth, sky and weather – more accurately to the real world than anything previous. Yet aircraft addon developers seem to think they can just continue to sell their products without any significant upgrade in quality and accuracy. To my mind the only aircraft developers whose products are of suitable high quality for MSFS2020 are PMDG and A2A. PMDG so far has introduced only their DC-6 for MSFS2020, and most everyone seems to agree that this is a high-quality product worthy to fly in MSFS2020. I have it and agree. So far nothing from A2A. I expect they want to…

I have been using MSFS 2020 since I bought it on steam 3 months ago - and took a break flying for a month. When I returned yesterday to launch a flight I got the launching screen and progress bar reaches about 70% then...nothing. I have to Ctrl-alt-del to quit flight simulator. I have repeated this at least 15 times - and last night reinstalled 100+GB of core game only to find this morning that the same problem persists. Previously had no problems and getting smooth performance all round at mid to upper quality. Chip - I7 8700 memory 16320 mb DDR4 sdram graphics GeForce GTX 1060 3GB Any suggestions welcome - the trouble is that this i…

Just a heads up that if anyone ever uses the Best Mixture command that it's currently very broken in SU6 - it's setting mixture to 9% irrespective of the actual best mixture and then is you press it a second time it then breaks the mixture control entirely so that you can't alter it with an axis, key command or by dragging the lever in the cockpit. Guess that teaches people for being lazy and not leaning manually.

Team is aware of it since SU6 and already has a flight_model.cfg available on their discord channels for both 135 and 145... Just a heads up and if you have any sort of epilepsy I am not being funny do not load and fly either prior to the fix. The twitching is not noticeable at first but when it starts I had to shut down the sim as it was literally hurting my eyes.

I tried to launch MSFS today, didn't run it for some time. Steam made a quick update and the sim started without doing any update, and it started. The only difference I saw is a nice image of London appearing at the beginning of the loading process. The problem is that it always tells me I am offline, maybe this is why the update is not really done and it doesn't go through the step "Checking for updates". I tried to log out and log in again but it didn't change anything, whatever I do I am offline. And I can tell you my Internet connection is not broken. Am I the only one having this problem?

I thought this would be changed in SU6 to let us go to 400? Only Terrain LOD is able to be set at 400.

Steam updated the base app just fine. Trying to download the main content at the loading screen and after a few seconds I keep getting "connection lost". Servers just overloaded? Never seen this before though I've heard of other having issues over the last year. Even more frustrating is it's definitely not my PC. House has been wired for networking since the last update and my PC has full access to my 1.2Gig connection right now and it's definitely up.

What are these other folders for in the Packages directory? Can they be deleted safely? I'm assuming they're extra configs for mods that'll get re-built if deleted but wanted to check. The sims starts out with just Community and Official. Thanks
