Posts on the MSFS forums says it's climbing better.

That post doesn't have the entire changelog for some reason. The full change log is in version info page in the content manager/library.

That's great news.

Has anyone tried this with GSX yet? When trying to load aircraft with GSX my cargo and rear pax door opens and closes (flaps) repeatedly. If you load and go without GSX everything works just fine, for me at least. Anyone else? TIA,

Looks like the FF/LL Curtiss C46 and Boeing 307 which were originally Airplane Heaven models have been taken over by Inibuilds

I just edited the profile to remove the open/closed door check and just manually controlled them via the ATR EFB
