I know, right? For some of us old timers Meigs represents a deep seeded memory from way back in the early days with MSFS, and provides a sort of warm, fuzzy feeling knowing that it was back by default in FS2024...only to find that it's not even usable now... talk about anti-climatic, sheesh. Thanks for the suggestion (KCMI).

heh, yea I was just about to do a comparison between that scenery mod and the default in 2024, to see how far into the air my aircraft bounces after landing and hitting the "ledge" of that misalignment 🙂

Yea no, definitely not me... I don't use any 3rd party scenery, only have a couple of aircraft in my community folder. It's been well documented for a long time now actually, but I guess they don't consider it an iconic or important airport in the sim to fix. Too bad.

Nevermind, posted too soon now that I found confirmation of it being a known bug over on the official forums.

I did indeed reply a couple of time via email, with no further replies or instructions coming from you after I had explained I don't do the Discord thing. You never offered other options until just now. So fine, at least I've got your interest now (hats off to the Avsim folks). I can assure you this is not the case in my particular situation, as I have already indicated in the 3rd post within this thread. I did check for that already just in case it was so...but found no exe running at all in Task Manager for the app and therefore no hidden window either. That would have been too simple, I know 🙂 In my case the app is actually being terminated early, for some odd reason, before it's main window has a chance to initialize. I have already tried repairing all my C++ runtimes as well, just in case but that didn't help. I was also suspect of the antivirus but I have tried to add the app as an exception but this hasn't helped either...I use Esset Smart Security Premium and there are several places you can add exceptions. I's always possible I missed one but I have searched around pretty good and added the app as exception everywhere I could see possible to do so. I will continue to investigate further, but if you have any ideas, please let me know and I'll try.

There is no installation process, other than copy/pasting a folder manually. Sounds like you'd make the perfect FSW employee!

Not everyone is willing to use Discord, it's an unprofessional environment to begin with, a security risk for your personal information and also your pc and aside from all that I just do not appreciate when people use it as their only choice of support for customers who they're doing business with. I'm not comfortable with it. There are other ways to offer real time support, if that's what you're offering.

Yep, it is 1.6 alright...dunno what to say or what to think, but at least I found a way to get it working for me. After creating a ticket with the developer all he said was that he knows someone else with the same issue and that I should report it as a bug over on Discord (but I don't do 3rd party support apps, period). That was the end of support, for me. I DID ask for a refund last nite, because at that point I hadn't found a way yet to make it run for me and, even though I asked, he didn't offer any solutions other than reporting it on Discord...but of course I never heard back after that request. I had just made the purchase the day before.

I found a work around to getting it to finally run. As soon as the app's splash screen appears upon loading, I immediately start a 2nd instance of it (so now I have 2 instances of the app trying to load simultaneously). Doing this somehow allows one of the instances to successfully load, while the other instance crashes out. So I'm left with a single running instance of the app. Never seen this behavior in any app before. No help by the developer, btw, who seemed to not even know what his own distributed notes say about running the app, very weird (maybe he's using AI responses? who knows).

I'm guessing this means that it won't be able to hold a sideslip in a direct 20kt crosswind from 90 degrees on approach?

thanks but no, that wasn't it 😞

So, with Learjet35 loaded on tarmac in msfs2024... the fsw binding app starts to load up and just quits at some point while loading, before it ever gets beyond the splash screen. Is this a known issue?

Be careful before you purchase...email the developer with any questions first because that chaseplane app has some important limitations everyone needs to be aware of before installing it. If you use the sim in any way that interferes with this apps limitations you will run into problems that may not be resolved without actually uninstalling the chaseplane app. I have held off for this reason and was actually instructed to do so by the developer. Here are some things the app has issue with: VR Career mode Night vision goggles Default replay system Xbox controllers ... and more, have a good read about this here: ChasePlane - Known Limitations

I still only have 16bg of system dram on a 7 year old pc with a 3080 gtx gpu... and I get no memory warnings from msfs 2024 at all. But then again I don't use any scenery addons, only aircraft addons. It runs fine and with that new frame generation mod I am getting 100+ fps and all is nice and smooth on approach in NY area.

Yes, thanks.. i did have curve (albeit a small one) set, but removing it only made a small difference. The aircraft is just overly stable, to a fault IMO...I mean it's a small aircraft and should move around more in air than it does...I had a 15 kt crosswind from about 40 degrees off of centerline of runway and never even had it try to windmill into the crosswind at all, no crab or kicking rudder out at touchdown needed. Heh, I certainly wouldn't say it has a "sports car" feel 🙂
