Please folks,

No need to pick just one or fight over either the CJ4 or the A320. You can have them both. 🙂

I hear FBW is making good progress integrating our flight plan system, so the high navigational accuracy you can get now on the CJ4 is coming. We're here for them and rooting for them! The trailer is, as always, awesome looking.

We're all on the same team here.

Without the FBW and WT teams I expect I'd still be using X-Plane. Seeing the planes evolve has been an engrossing entertainment. For the A320nx there's just VNAV to do and then all the rest is just icing on the cake. 
 

The Toliss costs £70 but the free FBW A320 has far superior visuals, has better sound and has more features!

Request a Metar report

and for those in need of more details how to print a METAR report in the neo:

--> select ATSU on MCDU (need to be on MCDU main menu, click on MCDU MENU to get there

--> Select AOC MENU

--> Select WX REQUEST

--> Unless already prefilled from your preloaded flightplan, enter required Airports using the top 4 right LSKs

--> Click SEND

--> Go back to AOC menu

--> Click RECEIVED MESSAGES

--> select received METAR, if you don't see your Metar then wait and click PAGE RIGHT on MCDU to update the screen 

--> Click PRINT

--> Pick = click paper from the printer (or double click on PRINT to pick it automatically) --> will be nicely put next to the MCDU on the middle console

--> enter Arrival Data on MCDU

BY the way, great video, FBW!

As I've said many times before, the FbW and the WT guys are class acts who are really moving the sim forward.

Oh nice. Is the FBW team using the Working Title code then?  I have always said that if the open source projects all work with each other and reuse the code that the other teams wrote, progress will be faster in developing add ons in MSFS.  If the FBW team is using the code from the Working Title project, this is exactly how different open source projects can help each other.

Until they redo the way internal flightplans work with the logic from WT, this plane will remain a frustration to me. CJ4 all the way!

Very ungrateful, and soon wont be far away from your Cj4...But hey! being such an expert on these things, lets see your offering!

First you must have entered a flightplan. At the MCDU press MCDU MENU, ATSU, AOC MENU, WX REQUEST, press send. Wait a few minutes for Company Msg to appear on the upper ECAM, PressReturn to AOC MENU, Received Messages, Metar, Print.

WOW, that looks really nice!.  I don't have MSFS at the moment but I will in time.   Much appreciated and respect to both teams working on this project for all MSFS fans.

 

Nice!

Sorry, when I wrote that, it was a day after my second Covid shot, and after a first day with no symptoms, I was suddenly fading fast and had a nasty second day.

Thankyou to those who took up the slack and elaborated for the questioner.

can't insert the sqwak code

did you clear it first?

The custom autopilot system has currently the issue that it’s still fed by the default flight plan manager. So in case for LNAV the full potential of the custom autopilot is not used. The law in the custom autopilot is capable of doing a bit more than just following heading but that is not used at all right now. Same goes for VNAV, the only thing that is taken into account are altitude constraints and speed constraints.

So this is where the work that has done by WorkingTitle is a big help, to get a better foundation for the flight management and the input for the custom autopilot in case of managed modes.

From my point of view it makes really sense to have a joint flight plan management module because the foundation is always the same while some details can differ from plane to plane.

can I ask what your symptoms were like, and how long winded they were?

I'm not sure its allowed, The mods are very sensitive to any mention of Covid.

Eh! I'll consider it a public service message.

Moderna: No reaction first dose

Second dose: First part of second day, the shot area was hurting like I had been punched (hard!) then it went down my arm. later in the day I was abruptly exhausted and short of breath and had to lay, down. Later I got a massive headache and felt like I was going to pass out..... Very uncomfortable night, I felt like my brain was not working right

Seems fine today

Sister Got her shot the same day, reported same symptoms.
