May 6, 201313 yr Good evening gents!First, I would personally like to thank Majestic for delivering such a pristine, and amazing aircraft. I enjoy flying it every second! With that being said, I'm sure most are aware that most ACARs systems get a positive landing rate from the Q400 due to the FDE operating outside of FSX. I know my VA actually has banned use of the aircraft until the problem is fixed since it messes up the site statistics. Flying with my VA was one of the main reasons I bought the aircraft so I was just curious if Majestic was looking into a fix or has one in progress etc.Best Regards, Darren. -Darren Currie
May 6, 201313 yr Heck I cant even get my VA to even recognize an engine start let alone landing VS lol CYVR LSZH I7-14700k 64gb 6000Mhz DDR5 ASUS z690 ROG STRIX Gaming RTX 4080 Super,
May 6, 201313 yr I have found that the VA Acars I am using causes the aircraft to slowdown to almost a stand still when the ACARS reads data. I assume this is a result of FSUIPC trying to access the aircraft data. Soon as its done with a read cycle it continues on normal. Specially prevelant on takeoff and approach which is reading data more often. Ive tested this numerous times. I suppose it is the same scenario as stopping when you have FSUIPC auto save enabled
May 6, 201313 yr It should be up to your VA to deal with this,If Majestic releases an SDK of course.

What's wrong with manual PIREPs for planes that don't work with ACARS systems? We can't very well keep all add-ons standardized and not "raise the bar" purely because VAs need to use the default variables. Just my 2 pennies.

May 6, 201313 yr No problem for mine with any phase of flight, just when I land I always get a ridiculous landing right like positive 2000 Come to find out. It is the way the VA is programing their ACARS.
