Look forward to it, thanks

Much appreciated - Oceania doesn't seem to get updated very often, is this normal?

if you google "emb e195 overhead panel photos" lots of drawings and images show in the results.

RFDS Australia?

Could it be this mod you could have installed at some stage and isn't compatible with MSFS 2024 and might be causing cockpit illumination issues. https://flightsim.to/addon/918/red-flashlight-night-mod

Alt + L turns flashlight on/off, can confirm it's white in MSFS 2020/2024, no probs here illuminates area you would expect a flashlight does.

The PMS50 gtn750 free version has stopped working in my MSFS 2020/2024 Sims. A fortnight ago, it worked fine in the SWS.PC12 and the Flysimware C414W in 20/24. I have the gtn750 latest version, 2.2.59, have uninstalled/reinstalled both of these aircraft and PMS50, but this was not a fix. I can enter a flight plan manually which shows in the map view but I can't change back to flight plan mode. the radio NAV and COM frequencies can't be entered at all, switching between GPS and VLOC1 again, isn't happening. Win 11 and Nvidia drivers are up to date. I don't have the WT G1000/3000 mod - or other conflicting mods installed which, from reading could have caused issues. My system has not changed in the past fortnight other than the Nvidia driver update to 591.86. Is anyone else have these problems? Steve S

Did you run the Navigraph Updater in the fss-aircraft-e17x root directory?

Quite hot here, eastern Australia 35deg C (95F) to 41deg C (106F) 85% humidity, still, I prefer the heat to the cold - couldn't live in those low temps

Thanks you for this detailed comparison, I too was considering SI, after using BATC since release and SI curiosity kept re-surfacing. However, the subscription model (and ongoing cost), in my opinion just didn't justify an additional cost to my Flight Simming. After your review I will now stick with BATC, they continue upgrading the product and i OWN it! Many thanks Steve

Down in YBCG Australia

Agree, in the absence of the Majestic Q400 entrance into MSFS2020/24 I thought that maybe the Asobo ATR 42/72 might show some promise but it's still too buggy for any in depth realism and immersion,any updates seem to have ceased.

I hope not! - we're getting 14 hours of sunlight as it is. Temps are in the high 30s low 40s deg C (100-104 deg F) day after day.

Endless previews across all the Simming sites - just release it!

That's the latest, if you go to the product page and download the manuals, they are labeled v2.4 - I too was confused with the reference to 1.2.4. I have to say it is much improved on an already great product - and now native to MSFS 2024.

Is anyone able to download the full 32 liveries in this package using he Headwind Installer. I've tried several times and can only get 4 to download.

Good to hear, I've flown over 100 faultless hours with the C414 in MSFS 2024, my favorite GA twin

Did you put the red mixture levers to full lean(down) to shutoff?

Agree, the 340B contributed greatly in my decision to buy MSFS2024, what a mistake. It is my number one hanger Queen, one year on and it's still a lemon.

I've found that if you google the name of the file you're trying to download, from the search results select the flightsim.to file you want, hit the link to open in flightsim.to, then try downloading this way. There are a few glitches on the site, particularly when using the sites search functions. I often have to use the google method to search for the files I want because their search engine doesn't find them when I know they are on the site. Regularly changing the site layout seems to create a lot of broken links and breaks others.

My main concern, is how do you auto-rotate in the event of an engine failure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqe5j0b1Ij4&t=476s

Fair enough, it definitely would be challenging. A captain would have earned his salary in the event of this happening.

Curios as to why you didn't use the ILS or other instrument approaches for the 16L/R runway or was this generated in the Sim - a more challenging non precision approach to YSSY would be the 07/25 which is considerably shorter - no room for errors on this one

...and the smell of burnt Jet fuel to add to the senses, don't you just love all things aviation.

I did a 5 hour flight and the tablet stopped working after 3 hours - just a black screen with none of the menu icons operable.
