It's entirely different to be in slew, to be in pause or to be in position freeze. I stand corrected, sir. Never heard about position freeze before. Just remember that when hitting z (or was it y) for slew my plane was perfectly - well - freezing too unless I started to move the stick Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"

This was probably a good idea. 🙂 Hook OK, let me test this rule. Will the planes in FS2020 have landing gear? Or are you not permitted to say because they might be removed prior to the release?

Instead of flying straight ahead and farther away from the airport, at some point the instructor could freeze the position enabling the crew to finish their (sometimes lenghtly...) procedures and checklists in real time without traveling an unnecessary distance. The simulation, aerodynamics and all systems continue to run and operate. That way, once they are done, they don't have to fly all the way back towards the airfield just to land. Just unfreeze, turn base and final for a quick landing. One way to save some expensive sim time.

July 26, 20205 yr Slew mode has just been confirmed in one of the latest (should I say live…) leaks. There’s a key command for it and guess what, you’ll already know what it is. 😂 Edit: I might be wrong. It’s sorted in under the „camera“ category, so then I really don’t know. We‘ll see soon enough either way. Edited July 26, 20205 yr by badderjet
