I wonder if you keep asking him if you will get the block as well. If he does decide to tell you, would you be kind enough to share the info with me because I'd really like to know. Genuinely. At the moment though, I'm beginning to wonder if there really are any. I'm not sure what else I can conclude from that encounter.

December 27, 20232 yr I have the tds-gtnxi in the jpl c-152 but don't know how to turn the unit on. Is there a manual for this unit somewhere ? Dave Hinson David Hinson

Truly no offense, I mean this in the most constructive way possible: if you're concerned a about a video game creating negative training regarding systems or procedures in a real - world aircraft, you really should consider getting some more detailed instruction in your aircraft. It's easy for proficiency - especially IFR proficiency - to lapse for GA pilots. The fix isn't on your desktop computer. 👍 Andrew Crowley

Things that work in this sim should work in that one. If not, I suspect it will require an update as things often do when the sim is updated currently. Honestly, the only products I don't expect to work in 2024 are the ones developers have abandoned and will therefore not get the usual updates. I don't believe you need to worry about either of these in the next sim. I wouldn't. 5800X3D - Strix X570-E - 32GB 3600Mhz DDR4 - AMD RX 9070 XT- Samsung 980 Pro x2

I don't think it's a good idea for anyone to train on something that's "pretty similar" to something that's as integral to single-pilot IFR as a 650 is in my case. Conversely I would use the WT G1000 to learn the ins and outs of it, although I still wouldn't fly behind one IFR if that were my only experience with it. I agree 10,000% on training and proficiency for GA pilots. As a nearly 600 hour PPL IR, I do an IPC every year with a different instructor from my club, because not only do I want different eyes on what I'm doing, I can also learn from these different instructors as well. So we're coming from the same place.

While I totally agree the first sentence, I'm not sure about the second sentence. To my experience, MSFS provides an experience (especially in VR) incredibly close to my real life IFR training, down to the very details of instrument scanning. Being able to play with a "real" (aka TDS) GTN650 anytime at home is invaluable, and for that, I'm in total agreement with @mryan75, that I don't want to play with a GTN650 in MSFS that has inaccurate "buttonology". 9950X3D / 64GB / RTX5090 / Pimax Crystal Light / Win11

I can't give you certainties, buddy and neither will anyone else here. If you want those then you should reach out to both developers and ask them directly. I know from personal experience that the PMS developer is always on Discord and has always answered my queeries within minutes. I can only say that in myself I'm so confident that what you worry about is a non-issue that it doesn't worry me in the slightest. 5800X3D - Strix X570-E - 32GB 3600Mhz DDR4 - AMD RX 9070 XT- Samsung 980 Pro x2
March 9, 20242 yr With the current sale I’d like to check again… PMS PAID vs. TDS? I fly GA only occasionally, but I tend to pay acute attention to the details. Andy, Bert, Bob and others, a pointer would be most appreciated. I understand BOTH now have Navigraph update capabilities? Ta- C Edited March 9, 20242 yr by cavaricooper Best- Carl Avari-Cooper
