People were banned in the stream due to how horribly strict Blackbox711 is...His German roots maybe? He probably told the mods to just ban everyone because thats what they always do. Even in normal days. I'm perma banned from his channel since years for no significant reason lol..

Really? REALLY? You actually went there?!

That is type-casting to the Nth degree and I'm gobsmacked the mods haven't picked up on this and deleted your post.

  • So much carry-on here.  Seems a lot of people didn't like what Blackbox711 had to say, so find all sorts of false narratives to say about him.  "Doesn't like the platform" - he's mentioned f

  • He's correct. Currently, the two best GSX Integrations are: - Fenix, which uses a fully automated approach, where you might still need to use the GSX menu in some cases, like when selecting a Pus

  • Why? They’re guilty of that whole debacle. The best thing they could do is say “we know, we messed up”. Banning people isn’t going to be all that good for business, especially when you’re trying to se

FSLabs A321CEO Pre-release stream Hi @everyone! I've been lucky enough to have been sent a pre-release version of the new FSLabs A321CEO for MSFS2020 and plan to do a stream on it tomorrow - 4th December 2024 @ 1700z FSLabs have historically been excellent from a systems depth perspective, so we'll put it through it's paces with some hefty failures that we can work through as we would IRL to figure out a plan of action to get to a safe outcome. As someone who used to stream FSLabs almost daily back during covid, it'll be interesting to see how the product fares in the MSFS2020 environment and look at any additional features they have added in the meantime. Look forward to seeing you at 1700z - if you're interested in the deep systems of an airbus, this one is probably for you.

She is a current a320 Captain I think for BAW so this will be very interesting.

Lets hope they give V1 Simulations a copy soon another RW 320 pilot.

Well the quote already shows a massive bias towards FSL, so not sure, how useful that is. I‘d really like someone like V1Simulations or A330Driver, because they‘ve been massively praising the Fenix, so their opinion would certainly not be biased towards FSL from the start.

That said I don‘t really need anyone to say that the FSL systems are good - I know that already. And I know their limitations in MSFS (no WX radar). And the Fenix is also very good systems wise - a slightly better flare won‘t make me buy the FSL.

I‘d rather like comments about visuals and performance and sounds, because that‘s where FSL has to compete against the Fenix (which is spectacular in visuals and sounds and by now respectable in terms of performance).

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Katie is a SME/beta tester for Fenix as well, so your take makes zero sense.

Not only that but Katie wrote the release variant of the EFB and is an active staff member of the Fenix team.

I believe this is what's called "just asking questions"...

Is Katie still on the Fenix team? I thought she had left Fenix and somebody else took over the work she did on the EFB for the Fenix.  For sure on her stream, she mentioned that somebody else took over her work on the EFB, but I think she said this about a year ago.  I didn't know that she is still an active staff on the Fenix team though.

She’s still on the Fenix team. Staff role in discord.

She's still on the team according to the assigned roles on discord. Though yes she didn't do the revised EFB that we see now.
