Warning placards in GA aircraft remind me of the famous "Warning contains hot coffee" warning on cups. It's as if someone thought the people who use them are stupid.

You can thank lawsuits for that.

do the default repaints still show G36 instead of A36?

They do, which is why I posted a "fix" in the forum.

Regarding placards, you don't have a choice. Placards are mandated by regulation to be in certain places on aircraft. If they are missing, the aircraft is no longer airworthy. Some are not mandatory to be fair, but the erroneous compass ones are, I am pretty sure. 

The only thing I desire with this airplane is... ok two things... LED landing lights and fuel state saving.

Sorry Bert - found it!  I must have skipped over that or forgot about it, even though I liked your post at the time.   Things move so fast these days in these forums.

And there's me thinking you were only an instrument guy. 

Thanks, by the way!

Trust me, I am... this was several hours of experimenting with various tools... never to be repeated. 😉

You have that confused with women. They never read manuals and expect the men to explain how stuff works. Or maybe that is just mothers... 😉

Anyone has a link for 36TC performance tables in cruise? 

Found some charts for the normal A36 but not the turbo, will have a scout about.

Thanks that is a good start. Numbers are not that far from V35!

Yesterday I did a start at runway flight, so plane was already ready for takeoff. But the STBY ALT annunciator light kept blinking, about which in the manual says

Standby alternator is providing power (steady), and load is greater than 20A (blinking)

Now: am I supposed take action on that message, and if so: what action? Regular alternator was already on.

(Did a cold and dark flight today according to the checklist and all went well and no STBY ALT message.)

With me that was because my ignition/start bindings on my throttle quadrant were causing a conflict (some were duplicated) I had to clear those and the warning light went off.

Aha, I will look into that. Maybe my Bravo ignition switch was still in the start position. Or double binding.

This is a nit but I thought the radio freqs were saved and persistent from one flight to another but I mostly (not always...) get 124.85 on both comm 1/2 active & stby. I am shutting MSFS down properly. Is there some setting I'm missing?
