Which package do you mean? The one from Wookie042 is still only available in the old 2020 version in the usual place... EDIT: Please disregard the above, the fs.to search initially failed to return the new version by 55tom55. Thanks for the heads-up!

Yes, looks very much like Sitka.

I was just complaining in the A2A Legacy thread about the lack of good "workhorse" planes for Alaska... Looks like I'm going to have to up my game and learn about turbines 😉 This is going to be perfect, instant buy from me as well.

I see where you're coming from, and I'm very happy about the announcement (flew the RA Legacy a LOT in FSX/P3D), but... at the risk of sounding like a broken record 😉 I was really hoping for something more utilitarian, like a Cessna 185, 206 or 210. At least in FSX/P3D, the less-refined models such as Carenado's 185 could be modded by guys like Bert or Glenn to fly and operate properly...

Thanks! KORS seems to have correct frequencies in the online flight planner, too, but not in the sim itself... I'll keep looking for solutions, KORS has always been my home base for "flying" in the area, so it's a bit of a pain if you want to use the built-in ATC.

Hi! I was wondering if any of you have run into an issue with comm frequencies at KORS (this happens both with and without Orbx's KORS installed). Only the AWOS is available, no CTAF. Instead, the frequency for Victoria Intl. (CYYJ) shows up when on the ground. I've tried removing all custom PNW scenery, but the problem persists.

Have you tried enabling ray traced shadows? This option makes shadows much sharper without having to use extreme resolution settings.

That was actually part of the routine, see this video taken a week earlier in France.

Actually, it's even worse with old-school segmented displays such as the typical BK or Narco units, the digits lag so badly that it's virtually impossible to set radio frequencies.

The Aerostar is a 2024-only release.

While I'm a GA-only flyer, I recently encountered a similar issue at KTVL, with VRAM utilization pegged at the maximum and the sim essentially grinding to a halt at 1 FPS or similar. However, I tried the same spot in the latest SU3 beta and got much better results at the same settings, with significantly reduced VRAM utilization, so perhaps they are actively working on this...

Ugh... this AI stuff is really getting out of hand... what were the bigwigs at the BBC thinking?

Love your "flight report" threads, thanks for another stunner. Couldn't agree more 🙂

Unfortunately, while 2WA1 used to be one of my favorite places in FSX/P3D (along with KORS), the MSFS 2020/2024 versions of the old Orbx airports have all been very disappointing so far. While it is true that MS have raised the standard when it comes to the surrounding terrain, most of these (lazy...) ports are in fact less detailed than their FSX versions, with missing clutter, generic runway/taxiway textures, etc. Even in the promo shots for Diamond Point 2024, you can see a lot of issues, such as the misaligned asphalt polygons in shots 3 & 4, the generic runway texture without any edge blending in shot 7, and so on...

The ATC window actually got worse in recent betas, so I hope they're tinkering with it and may fix it at some point... Yeah, I know... BTW, don't try to expand/resize the menu, it will shrink from 3.5 to 2.5 lines then 😉
