You got that right, if I was an ATP,  I would be filling out job apps at MCD's.....

You can have a private and still get type rating ! Think Travolta! Lol

Well, the update seems solid on my end. Performance is great, the plane behaves amazingly well, and I couldn't detect any bugs or hiccups. It's actually very nice for a change to have an update that doesn't break anything 😉

Just back from a flight from Patna to Kathmandu and yet another RNP approach. And I'm still very impressed with how the aircraft handles these approaches - vertical and lateral navigation seems to work flawlessly. Such a treat to have several complex airliners in MSFS that... just works. 

EDIT: As can be seen in the picture below, I was coming in too high and too fast. Never an advantageous situation to be in, but I was able to bring her down using speedbrakes, and captured the RNAV profile on final.

Did first 300 mile flight tonight. Got to work on the landings a bit....

I should say so - at KDCA I bounced about 20 feet in the air then landed on the nosewheel!  Too many years flying GA!

How do you get that post it note to show up on the cockpit like i saw in an earlier screenshot?

Bravo on the update!

It's running great on my six year rig- within 5fps of the Maddog.

Nvidia users- please use the newest drivers, it makes a difference.

After only 48 hours that's astounding. Other developers like Pmdg need to take note.  This is what support looks like.

Anyone having issues with the Bravo trim wheel or with Pause at T/D resulting in inability to change MCP values (but able to disco a/t and ap)? Yes clock was running so it was no longer paused.  In fact the bird began circling and ignoring the LNAV / VNAV path entirely and I could not affect any change to this behavior.  I opened a ticket but I'm curious.

I will say this: hand flew the SID out of WBKK - RPLL and I must say it was one of the smoothest experiences I've had yet.  Perhaps I need to adjust my control settings for the 737 because that departure was such a joy to fly I hand flew her up to FL210 before bothering to engage the AP at all.  Very nice!

I hit 'Init Request' but it doesn't get pulled in, although it shows up ok on the EFB.

After about a minute or so the orange 'star' reappears [now I come to think of it, there is a message at the bottom of the MCDU. I'll stop ignoring that & try & figure out what it means😀]

edit never  mid  misread  your post 🙂

OK Million Dollar question lol

Which do you prefer the Fenix A320 or PMDG 737? I am sitting on the fence, I love the FBW A320 (It is my go to airliner) and really love the look and complexity of the Fenix A320 but I miss a 737. I will probably end up with both I just cannot decide which will make it into my hanger first.

start with  the  cheapest 🙂

Wondering if I am missing something with the fueling and loading of the Fenix...So far I have only found the PAX, Cargo and Fuel input screen in the MCDU that instantly loads out the aircraft.  Compared to the FBW and the PMDG 737 it kind of feels like showing up to play a gig after all of the techs and stagehands have setup for you.  I actually miss that time to spend prepping since it feels like so much is going on rather than it being all on you to get done and pushed back.  I'm a bit surprised by this because especially with the PMDG I was a bit annoyed at the wait sometimes but I guess you don't always know what you will miss until it isn't there.  If this is it anyone aware of plans to add a system like either of those aircraft?

Don't see anything like that on my EFB. I can't even get V speeds to come up on the MCDU...

Which browser? Try Chrome, with Firefox and Safari it did not work good for me.

I am bit confused now, does Toolbar pushback work with Fenix?

Huh? When you click on „load aircraft“ in the EFB you can choose „realistic time“, which takes about 25 mins to load the aircraft. It‘s not instantly (unless you choose „instant“).

@Aamir I‘d like to know that, too! Seems like it was taken out? I remember FBW had to take it out, too, for some reason.
