I think Jorg mention that they are concerned about memory usage with display a huge number of different 3d models and liveries.

I believe you are right because IIRC he did say in a recent interview that their AI system is limited to a maximum of 6 different 3D models types at any given time. The reason he is explaining is they haven't implemented any form of BSP (Binary Space Partitioning) yet, which is essentially making the game updating all aircraft in the virtual world regardless of their distance and actual visibility to you.

Anyhow, they'll certainly solve any memory usage problem related to displaying other MP traffic around you once they start working on it, I'm certain.

According to the manual all you need for beta mode is to pull the throttle lever all the way back, let the airspeed drop and pitch down. For me it seems to work. 

Reverse thrust is a different thing and needs to be set up correctly with your throttle. On my Logitech Pro throttles I've set the reverse as a detent for the throttle lever. So when I bring them back, move it into the detent and move the throttles back up the reverse is engaged. To get back to normal, I move them back into the detent and back up.

Do you like sharks and want to visit Argentina? 😉

Is that a default paint?  Asking because I'm on the fence for buying it, and deciding if I want to paint it.

I grabbed the paintkit and mocked up what would be my 1st paint if I get her:

I saw a few other shark teeth liveries as I browsed all the paints for this plane....I think it looks pretty cool. 🙂

Could start queuing up some Porters behind the DC-6's still in the paint hangar. 😉

Seems the Main Forum thread got closed down because of the anti-DRM people hijacking the discussion to talk about DRM in general and abuse the devs 😄 

Buying a product with a DRM is a personal decision and you can always wait and get the Marketplace version instead, but a lot of people seemed to feel the need to announce their personal position and make a lot of noise.

 

...   meanwhile AvAngel has done a review.

 

 

Also Into the Blue Simulations:

No, Im working on it but near finish. Btw. yes, you have paintkit on MV website but to paint this model its a hard job 😉 (many small parts on different places so it takes longer than normal but it is possible of course)

Good example of a steep beta descent here, with and without flaps -

Right! If you dont like this, wait for MSFS Marketplace version. I suppose here no MV DRM but Microsoft DRM 😅. It's strange to me. People forget they have DRM and tracking on their phones (and a few apps they own), PC and Windows, TVs (even!), their internet accounts with all cookies (even on Avsim etc), laptops and so on, and they have a complaint about an anti-piracy program that only checks the license. The world is strange!

Hey guys, is it posible to add the PMS50 GNS750 to the Porter?

[Milviz 919]

When stage 2 comes, the steam version will have it.

I believe someone did a mod assuming you mean GTN 750
