December 21, 20205 yr Is it possible to toggle off and on the taxi ribbon from the key board. I have looked on key board but cannot see an option to do that. Is it even possible ?
December 21, 20205 yr Don't think it is possible. Although I agree, it really should be an option on the ATC panel and toggle-able with a key as well. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here

December 21, 20205 yr Has to be done in settings which is why I usually let the copilot taxi to parking.

December 21, 20205 yr Do airports still use the 'follow me' vehicles? I have often thought that would be a good way of doing it - follow the truck until you see the marshaller waving you in.

December 21, 20205 yr With Vehicles constantly roaming around in MSFS, it would be nice if AS uses one of them as a follow me Vehicle.
December 21, 20205 yr I have turned off the Taxi Ribbon for now, not that it wasn't helpful at times, but there appears to be a glitch where turning it on activates untitled POI markers. I really don't need a bunch of markers destroying my view, so I keep the ribbon off. Edited December 21, 20205 yr by RandallR Randall Rocke

Yes that is a good idea BUT....if you or he misses the designated / programmed runway exit by landing too far down the runway he will try to go over the grass and even through buildings.I have found the co-pilot to be pretty poor sometimes. If he does takes off he will not follow the programmed/planned course, maybe I am not doing something correct.

December 22, 20205 yr Since the lady doesn't scold me when I use the wrong taxiway, it stays out 😁 Stephan from Germany My System
December 22, 20205 yr The ribbon can be helpfull especially on larger airports, but because of the runway marker that stays visible during the whole flight I turned it off. Now I use LittleNavMap to show me the layout, and I noticed that the taxiways signs are more usefull than I initially thought.

When you are coming to the runway, make sure to stop completely at the hold short and contact ATC, when you do this and they clear you to take off the runway marker usually disappears. James
