No, PMDG had a forum on Avsim, in fact they announced several times that they would eventually would leave Avsim and have their own. On the Avsim PMDG forum they even had the policy of putting your real name in your signature. BTW, if you need support on the Fenix, you can go to their Discord page and there is a support Thread and the developer is on there all the time to answer questions. This is different from the normal Chat thread, which gets pretty crazy at times. Edited May 31, 20224 yr by Bobsk8

May 31, 20224 yr Truth is, pushback kind of sucks in MSFS anyway, even when it is working. FS2Crew's add-on helps a bit and so will GSX when that shows up (which thankfully will model a conventional towbar and tug), but even when it works, at present it's visually very jarring to see that big lifter tug clanging into the plane as it connects and the procedure itself in the sim is not really too akin to how it is really done. If someone could actually make a genuinely realistic pushback add-on for MSFS (easier said than done I know), where you could do it from the cab of the tug viewpoint, they could potentially make a lot of money from it, because it is one of the more difficult things you have to learn by doing it in real life most of the time. There are some professional software simulations of pushback operations intended for real-world training (some even have full tug controls), but these are very expensive, so there definitely would be a market outside of the casual sim user customer base, which I suspect would make it worth a willing developer's efforts. I would have cheerfully paid a lot for a decent simulation of this when I was learning how to push, because even now I still occasionally use FS2Crew's Pushback Express and MSFS to do 'recces' of the more tricky pushes I have to do for real at EGCC, such as pushing of Stand 27 and 24, and some of the non-standard ones we do (I had one the other day where it was off Stand 32 then back around to 26 with a Sun Express 737 MAX, which was a bit weird). A sim can only show you so much of course, but I can confirm that it has been helpful for sussing out the real procedures once in a while. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
