February 22, 20224 yr Promise on last question before I purchase. Is there any need to install the Trainer if the trainer is already installed for other Sim versions? Thx.

Good question. It does detect what trainer (or trainers) you have installed. If you have a current trainer it will use that one. That was my experience during the install and I was a bit surprised as I was fully expecting it to tell me to uninstall current trainer and install the one of their choice. -B Edited February 22, 20224 yr by btacon

Oh, no, wait, forget the radio station. That would require one of those weird old-time analog tunable ADF radios! 😉 Al Edited February 22, 20224 yr by ark

February 23, 20224 yr Is there a way to disable the approach chart overlay on the map? I prefer to keep a nice clean map, and reference my charts with the Navigraph in game panel.

For me personally, I use the TDS unit in the Turbo Arrow, the WT G1000NXi in the G36 Bonanza and the Kodiak, and PMS50 GTN in my Carenado Seminole/Mooney/C337. This all works seamlessly together. How are you getting the TDS to work in the VC of the Turbo Arrow? I just updated my Turbo Arrow to the latest version and still no-go. I have the same old choices in my tablet and that is WITH the TDS app running in the background. Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
