  1. I would be very interested in the plane when released, if released directly from Ini. I have no interest in the FBO eye candy. It offers no immersion for me.
  2. I don't own the product, but AS has a turbulence setting that I keep about 30%. And I get great turbulence in clouds, thunderstorms and whenever the metar shows light to moderate turbulence in the area. I already get great turbulence effects just using 2024 live weather along with AS set in passive mode.
  3. Sort of a waste of $$ if you already own ActiveSky.
  4. BB 757-200 (I broke down after all my bitching)(Love the plane. Could end up being really good) 🤣✈️💯 Yes, I'm very addicted to this plane.
  5. I have the ImaginSim KATL and it works great for me. Not sure where you get it was abandoned for 2024. How do you figure GSX has been abandoned or if you're just trolling?
  6. Both cockpits are top quality.
  7. Our first major Service Update is here! Over the past weeks, we've been working on new features, system improvements, and fixes based on your feedback. Service Update 1 brings several additions that make flying the E-Jets more realistic and give you more flexibility in everyday operations. What's new? Vertical Direct-To – Recalculate your vertical path and rejoin VNAV after an early or late descent. Step Climbs – Improved step climb planning with weight predictions and automatic VNAV guidance. FIX INFO – Create radial and distance references directly in the MCDU and display them on the MFD. BeyondATC & SayIntentions – Receive PDC, CPDLC, and ATIS information through the MCDU. Takeoff & Landing Performance – New distance calculations in the EFB. RAAS – Optional Honeywell Runway Awareness and Advisory System. Enhanced Sounds & Engine Simulation – Reworked sounds, realistic engine cooling, residual heat, and dry motoring. Bug Fixes – Various fixes and refinements, including improvements for Xbox controller users. Blue Skies
  8. After update earlier, in the middle of a flight now from BIKF to KORD. Flying like a champ. Didn't adjust any sensitivities yet. Hand flew it to 2K feet before engaging AP. Can't wait for the 300 and cargo models.
  9. After the latest update, set up a flight from KATL to KSLC this morning. It flew the departure and arrival, landing without any issues.
  10. Make sure that you also updated your Fenix to latest version 3.0.0.7613 which just released yesterday.
  11. I purchased it through Contrail. It's very nice and captures the real SBA quite well. Even though I get the low graphics pop up message, I can move around the airport just fine the GA and cargo side of the airport is good. It even accommodated the BB757 at the gate.
  12. No need to remove contents of community folder, just rename until after the update.
  13. I don't understand no matter what flight stick or yoke being used, the video shows maintaining a 15-degree pitch on flight director on climb out. I'm able to hold that angle on my flight stick. Not being overly aggressive pulling back to get nose in the air. I think a lot of folks don't understand the derated setting for TO. It makes a big difference on engine thrust. It took me several tries to lift off and maintain a 15 degree nose up on flight director but can be done quite easily. This is not a modern airbus or 737/777, but old school boeing.
  14. Nice find. But I still don't understand what textures have to do with the price of this plane. And it's far from anything FSX offered. I'm not saying it's perfect, there are bugs, but the systems depths from EFB and Acars system is superior to anything FSX offered. I'm quite sure improvements will be made in future updates, but have you flown this plane?
  15. Even though the PMDG 737/777 and the BB757 were 2 different era planes and different cockpits (steam gauges vs glass), they both are high quality. It took me a while to relearn the older 757 cockpit, which is also high quality, my first few flights were disastrous, even with reading the pdf manual open on my laptop. They modelled the 757 systems quite excellent from startup, takeoff, climb, cruise, decent and landing. This is not a plane that you will jump in and fly from point A to B without studying the manual. But with repartition you will get better after every flight. BB knocked this one out of the park. IMO.
  16. That's the great thing about AL, you can manage all your addons in any folder you desire and link them back to your community folder. I have hundreds of addons from all developers and manage them all with AL.
  17. @humongodongo best post I read since relaese of the BB757. No one wants to read the manual but quick to complain about bugs and how bad the plane flies. I'm enjoy the heck out of this bird.
  18. After taking a few flights now, I don't see any major issues with the 757. Are there some minor bugs? yes but the plane flies and performs great. The TO is a little steep but will be fine-tuned in the future but system depth wise I give it a 9 out of 10. I don't care if it comes with a cabin or not, I spend all of my time in the cockpit. Have anyone tried the auto land system of this plane? I think it's on par with Fenix and PMDG.
  19. I love Addon linker because it allows me to manage my100's of addon's and break them down into individual categories. ie aircraft type, scenery type, country, state. It's great for troubleshooting and locating if there's a double scenery install. Creating simlinks is useless if you can't manage them.
  20. Same here, can't get through to activate the product.
  21. Silent here also. Still running 1.9.20 no updates so far.
  22. I think some folks have nothing better to do than troll for responses to make themselves look or feel important.
  23. That's the whole concept in this country, if you don't want it, don't buy it. If someone else endorse it, you can just ignore it with Your wallet. I'm looking forward to the 757 release and can't wait to put it in my hanger.
  24. A340-600 Pro 1.0.4 Crashes We're aware some users are experiencing WASM crashes on 1.0.4. In order to try and gather more information regarding these crashes, we've created a dedicated crash report form on our helpdesk. If you are one of the users experiencing these crashes and are willing to assist us in tracking down these issues, please create a ticket using the dedicated form here. Please note that this form should only be used for A340 crash reports, as this is a crash submission form only, and general inquiries under it will not be responded to. For general A340 support, continue to use our usual Microsoft Flight Simulator support form. If we require more information from you, we'll get back to you via the ticket. Further instructions on what we require can be found on the ticket form. A340-600 Pro Dim Lights We're aware lights are generally dimmer in the aircraft after 1.0.3 with the move to native 2024. We're working on this, and thank you for all the reports. A340-600 Reset Process Change If you find yourself needing to reset the A340-600's WASM modules and settings, the folders required to be deleted have changed after version 1.0.3. We've updated our guide on this to now contain instructions for both 1.0.3 and above and 1.0.2 and below. You can find the updated article here. SU6 Beta Microsoft and Asobo have released the latest opt-in beta for MSFS, SU6 Beta 1.8.5. As a general reminder, Aerosoft products and products sold on our store do generally not support beta versions unless otherwise specified by the developer. Please keep this in mind if you experience bugs on the beta version. A340-600 Pro Model Update As we mentioned earlier this month, development of the A340-600 Pro model is progressing well. While we don't yet have an exact release date, we can confirm that you will receive new content for the most popular aircraft in flight sim free of charge, making the whole package even better. One question we keep being asked is whether this will be released as one big update or several smaller ones (e.g. wings, fuselage, cockpit). Honestly, we haven't made that decision yet. We want to make the right decision here rather than rush it, so it's still open. Once we know more, you'll be the first to hear about it. A330 CEO Base Pack We know that the release of the CEO wasn't our best work, but we've learned from it. That's partly why we've been a bit quiet recently, but we've been working hard to deliver, and we believe that we achieved this with the A340-600 Pro. I'm sure you'll agree. The A330-900 NEO actually gives you a good idea of what to expect in terms of backward compatibility for the A330 CEO, in terms of functionality, detail and quality. Here's the plan: once the A330-900 NEO is on the market and fully refined, we'll focus entirely on A330 CEO backward compatibility, bringing it up to the same level and standard as the NEO version. A330 NEO Pro? The A330-900 NEO is exclusive to Aerosoft. Many of you have written to us asking, 'Why not collaborate with ToLiss again on the A330 NEO Pro, as you did with the A340-600 Pro?' We are finally super proud and happy to share the following great news with you: Aerosoft and ToLiss are collaborating again! Following the great success of our release of the A340-600 Pro, we will be bringing a version of the A330 NEO Pro to MSFS 2024. We are both thrilled for the next journey, and we are sure that this will be one of the most anticipated airliners in the Microsoft Flight Simulator world — it's going to be awesome! The journey has just begun! To sum up here is a little conclusion of what we have been writing here above: A330-900 NEO Developed by Aerosoft only. Release today. A340-600 Pro Developed by Aerosoft and ToLiss. Getting a huge, free model update. A330 CEO Basic Developed by Aerosoft. Getting an overhaul to bring it up to the same standard as the A330-900 NEO. A330 NEO Pro Developed by Aerosoft and ToLiss. We are pleased to announce the beginning of a great new product! Bear in mind that this is just the beginning. It will take time, especially as ToLiss are very busy with their A350 collaboration for X-Plane, not to mention the long list of updates that still need to be completed before the A330-900 NEO Pro is released. That's all for now — Great release today, great new collaborations, we're looking forward to it all. So make sure to follow us so we don't miss having fun together!
  25. Have you visited or read their discord posts concerning their road map going forward? Have you tried deleting the wasm folder and letting it rebuild a new one? Not sure what you mean by poor cockpit lights.
