    Columbus, Ohio— It’s a great pleasure to announce that Skybus Virtual airlines is currently seeking pilots to join the New Airline. Skybus Virtual Airlines is a professionally operated Virtual carrier Based in the U.S at John Glenn Columbus International Airport in Columbus Ohio, with a secondary hub in Greensboro North Carolina. Skybus Virtual is operating just like the Original, and now defunct Skybus Airlines back in 2007-2008, except with a twist. Skybus Operated 12 A319 aircraft. SKBv will Operate brand new A320neo. We have added every route Skybus had in place plus the routes that were removed before ceasing operations. But most importantly We at SKBv are going to move on with their Original Intent with International destinations as well. On July 24, 2007, the U.S. Department of Transportation granted Skybus the right to fly international flights to Cancun Mexico and Nassau Bahamas, and we plan to add those routes soon along with other routes that we think Skybus would have flown. Here at Skybus Virtual we offer a sleek web design with ACARS, awards, and commendations as you progress through your VA career. We offer tour programs and charter flights, and assistance in training our pilots with online flying procedures. Our Airbus 320neo will deliver all our passengers to one of our 20 destinations Other News: We did Switch out our Destination St. Augustine (KSGJ) for Jacksonville International (KJAX) as St. Augustine airport in the Sim is not compatible with our aircraft Skybus Virtual Airlines is looking for those pilots who want to get the most from their flight sim experience, which also allows for opportunities for advancement within your Skybus virtual career. If you’re looking for the challenge of flying for an up-and-coming airline, to destinations across the U.S and select markets and the camaraderie of a great group of pilots visit us at link below.

    I carefully watch the A330 Driver videos and in this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_p3If-d1Mk between 1:08:56 and 1:09:42, I don't have the same scenery (I'm in ULTRA), would you know if it's the normal landscape or if A330 Driver uses an add-on? Thank you in advance for your opinions

    I have no visuals to show, but my tests lean me toward active mode. Passive is sure prettier, but active always seems more realistic and truer. There is no right or wrong here, just what you prefer from your sim. It’s hard to pass up the beautiful eye candy, but for most flights, I prefer a more realistic coverage.

    It was @okupton who confirmed the old one. Perhaps he could double-check. I'm told it's still the old one in v6 which is bizarre. And it still piddles me off that Old Trafford (MUFC) has been in the sim since FSX days but no other famous stadiums like Anfield, Emirates (Arsenal), Man City (Etihad) or more recently, Spurs. ☹️

    Where you read this May 7th date? I have a feeling it will be much further than that..
  14. SimeonWilbury
    Haven't checked on my sim, but to be frank my scenery outside of airports is a bit barebones. As for up-to-dateness... Well... Kai Tak still exists in my Sim World so I'm not too fussed on that front 😅
  15. BuddyDog
    Thanks, Raymond. Seems to be so many rumors running around on CPU's, GPU's, etc. I think I will just wait a while until things are clearer.

    Ah ok 🙂 .. and yup MSFS 2024 looks to be (unsurprisingly) continuing the trend set with v2020 to redefine what level of fidelity is provided in the core sim, be it default aircraft or otherwise (and good to be free of mindsets that say otherwise from the times of legacy sims) I get the concerns of some who feel iniBuilds are taking too much on, but they've also expanded the team pretty substantially, and yes even though there were initial bugs they've at least quickly and frequently been fixing A300 to its current state, which is one of definite high fidelity (and bodes well for their upcoming A350, A380, etc). Their close working relationship with MS/Asobo during 2024 development also will likely mean they have a leg up on learning the SDK and internals of new features to take advantage of (such as for example the coming capability to define the aircraft surfaces/geometry/wings/etc much more precisely than currently possible).

    That is a good idea. The PC-12 is the most complex FM we have done yet and we didn't expect the users to have such issues. Part of it is our own bias though. We are so used to it that we couldn't see the forest for the trees.

    Really want to get my hands on SimFX, that's also on hold until SU15

    I am on 5.4 and I have the new Wembley Stadium. So comments above are odd about 5.4 having the old one.
  21. DModjo
    I consider passive mode as default. I think what I mean is that the depiction looks more believable with ActiveSky generating the visuals. They use variety of cloud coverage, types, transparencies, humidity and the cloudscapes just look more similar to what one would witness out the window of a commercial flight. Subjective opinion though, but it’s nice we have options.
  22. kiek
    I have not yet decided to remove these functions.
  23. Purr
    Hard to wait because it’s putting other devs on pause before they release! Esp have been truly craving the black square dukes!!!

    The clouds above 5000 has had an initial fix with the latest beta version of the software Changelog: Update 042424B - B8880B- Initial implementation of >5000ft cloud generation especially in Europe (NSC/NCD) - More work in progress- Smoothing tuning, mainly in attempts to eliminate earlier shifts/clearing in some cases- Added new option: Use periodic theme reloads. Default On. Enable this option to have the weather theme rebuilt periodically, approximately every 7 minutes, to provide updates and variation to the weather as you fly. Without this option enabled, updates will occur only as per your download interval setting.- Added temporary additional UI console logging for transitions monitoring (http://127.0.0.1:19999/inspector/Main.html?page=38)- Added additional logging for turbulence (simconnect log) and transitions events (main session log)- Adjusted METAR sky condition element filtering to not bypass "on the ground" 0 AGL altitude layers specified (e.g. FEW000)- Attempted fix for issue where after pressing REFRESH (debug screen) and then moving download interval slider (general options), time request can default to beginning of hour and could cause historical mode to activate- Attempted fix for flight-plan-related anomalies in weather updates, locking, and refreshing- Fixed issue with Enabled temperature-based altimeter errors option not persisting properly- Fixed issue with AS_FS_SimConnectLog.txt not properly attaching to log exports- Removed Maximum Upper Visibility option (this is not having the desired effect despite our attempts to control upper visibility without MSFS overriding this at higher altitudes)- Fixed NCD/NSC/CAVOK cloud generation issue causing loss of METAR cloud layers in some cases

    No sorry, that would let too many aircraft disappear, as well in your sim as in your TCAS. You better not use PSXT if you do not want real live traffic around you. 😉 No, they don't hit you. It is a "near collision" If I would use larger distances, you would wipe out too many parked aircraf too. Note that PSXT exists for almost 10 years now. These collsion avoidance functions have not changed since then

    The 700 number includes their partners not just people working full time on the sim.

    What laptop do you have? 15 years ago it was 2009, maybe you can do even better.

    The few times I used Historical weather in P3D, was when there was severe weather somewhere, like a snowstorm, or squall line somewhere.Almost never was that in the last 24 hours. The 24 hour thing for me, probably will never be used.
  29. P3DMOTION
    Along with the other scenery issues, the ocean wave textures are far too big in V6, we modified them for our sim setup, if anyone else finds them too big you can download our patched textures. PM this member for the site! Rom

    Sometimes good software understands why a pilot eschews studying the manual and just takes the new plane up for a quick pattern. And it then offers subtle encouragement to become more engaged. "I guess that you were trying to accelerate the retirement of this particular Tornado. If so...good job."
  31. Noel
    You might, I could care less. The way I use MSFS it's never to see how things might go last month. I will appreciate being able to duplicate weather appropriate for time of day when I fly in areas in other hemispheres so once again zero need to duplicate weather last week or what have you and I suspect that is the case for the vast majority of users. Glad they won't waste programming resources for more than 24h worth.

    Might be an idea to prepare a tutorial/introduction video when SWS has a new product. Same as what Scott from A2A does, there he can explain on his own terms all the little nuances. I think sometimes these Twitch/YouTube pilots also miss the experience/knowledge to understand these small fidelity items that some developer include in their models. And they have quite a big audience that basically see them struggling, which sets the(wrong) tone right away.
