  1. Does it do anything with terrain / winds? Mountain waves, or local terrain? Thinking airports like Madeira, Bozeman, Rhodes, etc.
  2. I am having a terrible time with this one. I installed the 2.0.7, removed and reinstalled, removed and installed the new 2.0.8 beta. I cannot get the ailerons or rudder to work. ARI / Disconnect on or off, axis in spad or msfs direct, nothing works. I have verified there are no other conflicting axis assignments, tried different controllers, nothing works. Auto rudder is disabled in sim. No matter what the those two axis jitter and snap back to neutral. The only way they will move is using default num pad keys...
  3. They have started to ship KS pledges from the European location (according to a poster who received shipping notice). I am in the US and have a unit coming via a KS pledge, but was told my unit will not ship until late this month.
  4. I am seeing that as well. I use Chase Plane and if I drop my ext view right to the rwy surface it is extremely rough, not sure if that is the cause...
  5. Since they did the interior of the terminal (very well), I wish they had done some interiors at Signature and Atlantic. This is definitely an airport that I will fly anything from light GA to heavy bizjet aircraft into. I find it strange that they did zero parking spaces at the Atlantic / GA ramp on the NW side of the field.
  6. Would be curious to hear others post patch observations. For me, I wish FSS put as much into technical detail as they did visuals. I have the latest patch (10/25) and there are still glaring issues for me. The checklist says to monitor CHT during climb, mine never goes above 180-200 (475 limit). I used in sim monitoring and ChatGP to come up with a reasonable change to increase CHT to realistic looking levels. In cruise decreasing power raises CHT, that might be true due to reduced airspeed / airflow over the engine, but seems odd even given the FADEC controlled engines. I went to the cruise tables, and although speeds looked ok to the table, indicated power levels were far below their book numbers. BUT - their book numbers for 5,000 and 10,000 are identical across every number, so hard to tell. My battery indicators stay in the yellow even after 30+ minutes of climb and cruise. All that said, I do really enjoy this aircraft. Just wish it was better technically.
  7. It is not up for sale yet, but the website is back up and revised to a degree.
  8. I have had the issue for a while. I can immediately fix it in sim by going to the tool bar and clicking on the FLOW icon once. I do use a toolbar wrapping mod and can just then hide the tool bar again. When you click once a dot will stay in the corner of the icon, if you click twice or the dot disappears it is turned off.
  9. On Discord they are saying delayed due to a "medical issue" but still hoping for a "release per the FAQ" "To clarify we are still pushing for the timeframe mentioned [in #faq](https://discord.com/channels/1123990664934346753/1562904530880823357). But again the medical situation was a huge blow to the timeframe but we are trying our hardest."
  10. The whole cabin thing is a bit off to me. I don't care a whole lot, but it does seem like a bit of poor excuse. Yes I get the comment about it being systems focused. OK, then why publicize about "every rivet, dirt streak and paint imperfection" or, "Watch the wings respond to turbulence, G-loads and fuel weight changes exactly as they do on the real aircraft." which is only done from external or cabin views. I will likely be buying this right away, and I hope the release is generally solid. Though I remember feeling the same about the A220, which did have a bit of a very rough start for many.
  11. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. It said to be a '27 Q3 release so a long way to go even if they meet that target. Since it is "fictious" there won't be any specs to compare it against...
  12. Seeing these always reminds me of watching Bob Hoover do his routine in the Shrike. Insta buy . . .
  13. I have to say I am not a fan of Propair. Via ORBX I bought KGSU which was sold as a separate full priced product for 2024 vs the 2020 version. I immediately had an issue with default buildings showing through. I contacted PropAir, and their first response was the issue was identified and a fix to be issued soon. After almost two months and not seeing any patch, I reached out again and was told an FS update caused problems they couldn't fix, and since it was a "2020 product" and "This update has not been forgotten; however, we are still unable to provide a specific release date. At the moment, our development capacity is allocated to other ongoing projects.". Basically, leaving me with a useless product. Kudos to ORBX, who gave me a refund after sharing my details of trying to solve the issue with the developer. Then low and behold some many weeks later looking at the marketplace I saw a patch was issued. I re-purchased via the MP. It was fixed and it is a good-looking product, but their service left me not impressed.
  14. If you say so. Hope those that buy it enjoy it. I already have a Sovereign that is on the larger side and the Phenom on the smaller side. I'll save my$$ for the Praetor or ini Global, 757, 787, A380 or even the BS KingAir. Too many things on the horizon. Of all the glass cockpits I find the PL21 hardest to read anyways.
  15. An odd choice. The base avionics was not the PL21, though it does appear there were RW retrofits. Why not just do the 850XP or 900XP where the Pro Line 21 was original. Not really interested in it, disappointed on lack of progress on the CL350...
  16. Nothing to do with Tolis. Apparently right after the release they announced a future A330 "neo PRO" with TOLIIS involvement. Stated as a totally separate product and far down the road...
  17. Reasonable question, until just recently the store page said yokes would be available late Q2 (and the KS campaign is almost 18 months late). Store page now says late Q4, and despite Virpil's positive reputation I am not real confident I will ever receive mine...
  18. The Virpil yokes are not out yet. I am a Kickstarter supporter and these yokes are now expected to start production next month after massive delays. Anxiously waiting for my B yoke and accessories...
  19. Like the title says. Not available yet... Just Flight - BlueBird Simulations B757
  20. I have this and have been very happy with it. Using it with the Sovereign for both the EFB to a 12" tablet and the GTC controllers (2 and 3 side by side) to an older 8" Fire tablet. In both cases touch screens work great back to the sim. I have had mixed results on the PMDG and iFLY EFBs, trying some of the alternate methods in the Glass Out app.
  21. Well I am not a beta user, but I received an error when CP tried to automatically update. Error message said to download latest installer, did that. Same error. Uninstalled to do a fresh install, and now getting same error. No CP, so not going to be enjoying the weekend simming...
  22. I am a Kickstarter backer and they finally just updated that they are seemingly past their supplier QC issues. The latest forum post indicates September as the new earliest date for those first orders.
  23. They announced and "previewed" the Kodiak 900 three years ago, and it is still not out. At the same time, they previewed the PC-12 NG with cockpit renders (once stated to be available in the year 2024). The native PC-12 non-NG 2024 is still not out. Not holding my breath . . .
  24. I agree as well. Now it will ALWAYS vector me to what is sees as the FAF, even if there are transitions. Yes that can happen in real life, but most of the vectoring results in being too high or having to hit very high descent rates. I also hate that when it starts descent it will inevitably tell me to descend to xx,000 feet, then less than a minute late, sometimes immediately, give me a different altitude. I have also had it make me takeoff into its own opposing AI and refuse to give me landing to the runway ATIS said was in use and being used by AI.
  25. It is different than the post above that quoted incorrect information.
