I did not see this listed, can anyone confirm?

[Fixed] Better interception of legs following (INTC) legs

Guess I stand corrected, this doesnt entirely fix the issue (didnt review the whole list in depth though)

does aerosoft ever put the pro on sale?

Any decent tutorials available?

Karl

Chuck's Guides has made a "guide" for it.  That combined with a couple of good Youtube tutorials helped me immensely.

There is one particular Youtube vid where the pilot explains how you can use one of the prediction / progress pages in the FMC to determine your ideal descent rate (fpm) to hit your altitude constraints. 

[micstatic 4,319]

I love chucks guides and would seriously contemplate picking it up at some point.  Price tag a little steep.  Based on everything I see I'd pay 50 for it.

I was part of the beta team.  We also had several real-world CRJ pilots who provided many inputs, including a few that could be considered nitpicking by some of us, but they were addressed.  Here's the complete change log:

2.2.0.0 Service Pack 1 / Initial P3D v5 version
- [Fixed] Mach number indication in HGS
- [Fixed] Key processing for EFB keypad and number pad accepted too many keys

- [Added] Autopilot disconnects when both Stab Trim channels are off
- [Added] Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick support (shifted Idle position for throttle slider)
- [Added] ActiveSky P3D support
 
- [Changed] Updated DEP/ARR selection pages to FMS version 4.2
- [Changed] Change-based redrawing of MCDUs (less framerate impact and better input response)
- [Changed] IAS value now calculated using Mach and pressure altitude instead of faulty FSX/P3D IAS value
 
- [Improved] LOC tracking slightly improved
 
- [Updated] Virtual cockpit adapted for new P3D v5 PBR features

Not everything that is known has been fixed, but the developers are continuing to improve it.

strangely enough I see it was on sale at pc aviator for 54.  just picked it up.  But it's going to the back of the hangar while i play with the FSLabs A320 update

I've been trying to stay in the loop.  When is this update going to be released?

[micstatic 4,319]

it released today

[JasonPC 173]

So my two notes...

1) You still need to load a default plane in the sim first or the plane will have performance issues.
2) Plane wandered completely off nav track for no apparent reason like it has done so many times before.

I made 26 flights using the original CRJ X in v5 (unsupported) and never had either of these issues 🤷🏼‍♂️

Yes. I got mine during the last sale.

[micstatic 4,319]

Can anybody assist me in updating the V5 crj airac with Navigraph FMS Downloader?  I can't get it to update.  THanks. 

[Dreamflight767 312]

Hi:

Where do you find the update at?  When I check the updater, nothing comes up.  Also, no mention on the forums.  I also checked with the merchant I bought from and nothing listed.

Thanks.

[micstatic 4,319]

I bought it new and the installer had a v5 option I think. 

[Dreamflight767 312]

Is this update only for v5?
