did you update to the latest vesion of gsx ?

What you are saying is simply not true. I do not use the default sim or scenery, and I use all the large, demanding scenery add-ons with PSXT traffic. I have a modest system—an RTX 3090 and an i9-12900 at 3.2 GHz—and have no issues whatsoever. I happily fly between all the most demanding airports. It seems some people do not get the performance they would like. However, if you look at the liveries downloaded from Flightsim.to, the most popular one has more than 2,000 downloads. So there must be a lot of people who are also happily flying the A220. I hope those who are not getting the expected performance will also consider their own hardware and settings instead of immediately blaming the product.

I have been flying the A220 pretty much every day since release and I am not seeing any of the things you describe,

I have the same issue, The activation code was already prefilled in the EFB but activation request gave an error. Now I have "Rate_002: too many requests" and a dead aircraft... No idea what to do now.

Maybe there is a little bit more to this. Lateral unbalance is (in real life) surely a factor that is taken into consideration when preparing loadsheets on cargo aircraft. Of course only when there is double row loading like e.g. the 747 or other WB aircraft. Apart from the cargo also a possible fuel unbalance between the L/R wings counts towards the lateral unbalance. But this is a factor but that would be up to the crew inflight. There are for sure loadsheet limitations for the lateral unbalance. I do not believe lateral unbalance is simulated in MSFS so no need to check. But in my former company where we made loadplanning and loadsheets for WB freighters it was definately part of the procedure B rdgd / Dick

Well, thank you ! That solved it for me. I was always waiting for the APU door to open before trying (without luck) to start the APU. But indeed if you hit the Start/Stop button straight after pushing the APU fuel button the APU will start. Not sure if that is the procedure IRL but anyway.. I got it running now..

well, it's not so simple for some of us. I have seen YT tutorials where indeed the apu door opens at the touch of that button.. but unfortunately not for me, I tried everything. Reinstalled and checked for rogue bindings that might prevent the door from opening. Tried with all hardware disconnected but never ever does that door open.

After the runway designator change last year EDDM current runways designators are 08R/26L and 08L/26R. You write that you had runway 25 and expected 24 ? Seems either your scenery and/or yr database is outdated. If after updating you still have difficulty give us and example and we can check. I flew into EDDM and got the correct data populated. I have never had any problem with ILS frequencies not poupulating..

I kept Aivlasoft running without problems with 2024 using the 2020 database. That worked fine until I updated FSUIPC from version 7.4.18 to the new beta version for 2024. Would a pity to loose Aivlasoft.

well, they are included.. in the documents folder.

I have the same issue as you describe here. All my UK2000 airports measure 6.47GB as per the list in the remove/deinstall page. When I use a program to visualize the disk ( like Spacesniffer) I can see that on the disc they have the correct size. So I take it as an administrive error and I do not worry about it. Happy flying / Dick

You did not give any information as to what airport and to what gate but GSX normally only uses the information contained in the afcad. If GSX does something wrong or unexpected most of the times the cause lies with the afcad of the airport in question. However as explained there is a GSX menu that allows you to configure various options like e.g pushback directions.

Fuel in the center tank makes the aircraft noseheavy. Fuel in the wings do not affect the center of gravity that much. When the center of gravity is forward because of fuel in the centertank you will need to use trim to get the center of gravity in the desired position. This increases the fuelburn. So you really want to fill the centertanks last ( and use first). Contrary to what you say the aircraft is better balanced when the tanks are used one after another in the correct sequence

but he probably uses a keyboard to fly the drone apart from a stick and throttle

Good story, thank you ! I will follow in your footsteps soon. brdgs / Dick =
