The CRJ (both real and simulated) cannot fly the vertical portion of an RNAV approach automatically. The vertical profile has to be flown using the autopilot in vertical speed mode, which means the pilot has to initiate descent at the proper point, and reference the vertical profile of the approach chart to insure the aircraft remains above any waypoint altitude restrictions in descent, and does not descend below MDA. The aircraft will fly the lateral part of an RNAV approach automatically in NAV mode. There is an available Rockwell Collins STC that will give a CRJ the ability to fly a WAAS/LPV approach, in which case it will automatically fly the glide path of a WAAS approach but it is an extremely expensive modification, and very few (if any) airline CRJs have incorporated it.

March 17, 20215 yr I've read the manual. The CRJ needs a 1.3VS with flaps at 45 degree for landing. https://fsprocedures.com Your home for all flight simulator related checklist.

It should fly the ILS Glide Slope , though, correct? Edited March 17, 20215 yr by Bobsk8
March 17, 20215 yr Hi guys Just bought this bird, trying to update the AIRAC using the manual download from the navigraph website I only get these options when it asks which flight sim during the installation Microsoft flight simulator Microsoft flight simulator X - Steam edition Lockheed Martin P3D v3 Lockheed Martin P3D v4 No option for MSFS?

I have, in the past, seen an intermittent bug when the cabin did not pressurize correctly when the departure airport was high elevation (above 6000 feet), but have not been able to duplicate it in recent builds.

I have not seen any pressurization problems during testing myself. Best to file a bug report at the Aerosoft support forum for the MSFShttps://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/forum/1025-aerosoft-crj/ Perhaps changing the landing elevation in flight triggered it, but you should not have had the initial delta P warning in any case. Did you start from cold and dark, or one of the other preset states? Normally, the pressurization system will hold the approximate cabin altitude that existed at the departure airport until differential pressure between cabin altitude and outside pressure reaches 8.2 PSI. (For a takeoff near sea level, that will happen around 20-22 thousand feet). As climb continues, cabin altitude will slowly rise to keep delta P at 8.2 Edited March 17, 20215 yr by JRBarrett Jim BarrettLicensed Airframe & Powerplant Mechanic, Avionics, Electrical & Air Data Systems Specialist.

March 17, 20215 yr 11 hours ago, rickjake said: I would double check your axis binding again in the control options area of MSFS. Throttle 1 Axis should be Joystick L-Axis X do not check the reverse axis box Throttle 2 Axis should be Joystick L-Axis Y again do not check the reverse axis box if configured correctly you should see a white slider move back and forth when you move both throttle axis. Also make sure in the Sensitivity settings that reactivity is 0 or close to 0 for both axis. Then in the CRJ calibration you should see the numbers move when you move the Throttle. select Dual Axis for Throttle type and , and reverse Axis on On. (Throttle hardware has reverser axis) Good luck I'm having issues using Hotas Warthog throttle. No other plane has done this before, but when I move the hardware throttle, in the sim the throttle doesn't move. The white slider moves in the settings and no other aircraft behaves like this. Its all calibrated in the settings and never had an issue with this in any other aircraft -any ideas why its non responsive? Thomas Derbyshire

March 17, 20215 yr it's an MSFS issue. It has nothing to do with the CRJ. I am with aerosoft on this one. https://fsprocedures.com Your home for all flight simulator related checklist.
