February 14, 20188 yr The weather can change very quickly in the mountains: On this short VIP shuttle flight from Annecy Haute-Savoie Mont Blanc LFLP (tdg freeware from the org) to Sion LSGS (stock XP11) in the Challenger 300 (DDEN´s version 2 for XP11), the sun was still present during preflight planning, but upon starting up the aircraft, everything was grey, and we had snow coming down through the windy air. Luckily, the weather at Sion was pretty clear, the IGS RWY25 approach is spectecular! XP11.11r2, X Europe, ortho4XP, xEnviro 1.07, MaxxFX: Thanks a lot for viewing!

February 15, 20188 yr these are great shots, wow! Are all systems simulated in this add-on? (pmdg like level or more basic) thank you! John
February 15, 20188 yr pmdg level for 34.95? lol It's a pretty good addon but uses the default XP11 FMS. Which isn't horrible but it's very basic but will do LNAV and can load sids/stars/iap's | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
February 15, 20188 yr Beautiful screenshots. Your scenery looks outstanding. What do you think of that Challenger 300? Is it a pretty stable software that handles well? I have it but haven't had a chance to try it out yet. Robert Yunque PilotEdge Ratings = CAT-11 (2016-09-13) I-11 (2016-10-23) V-3 (2016-08-01)
February 15, 20188 yr Thx a lot for the kind words! And yes, it’s one of my favorites, and I highly recommend it! :-)

Which isn't horrible but it's very basic but will do LNAV and can load sids/stars/iap's Sure, not PMDG level, but very depandeble and consistent. And it flies extremely smoothly. The checklist feature is neat, and it even works perfectly with the very nice Terrain Radar plugin, which you can get as freeware from the org. It just integrates into its ND. And sure, it loads all SIDs and STARs, and approaches, all day long! ;-) Why shouldn’t it? ;-) In the 4th picture you can even see the ND drawing a nice curved line of the selected SID.

John It’s got decent enough system modelling (for me), all synoptics displays are there. A freeware Terrain Radar plug in from the org integrates flawlessly into its ND, the electronic checklists help you to get started, and the decent stock FMC loads SIDs, STARs, transitions and approaches. And the navdata are updatable via Navigraph or Aerosoft. All in all, very fun plane to fly, worth every cent. And she looks beautiful! :-)
