NEED SOME HELP: installed both planes to both sims. No issue with that. Loaded up a quick flight via SB and successfully imported route and all data, no help needed here. I line up on RWY, apply full throttles and it seems like it’s working but I cant attain takeoff thrust/speed. Topping out around 90-100 KTS and I run off the end of RWY every time. Clearly I am missing a step here. Been flying toy planes for 40 years. Can someone help me get this bird airborne? TIA, -B

Wen? Ware? Thx, -B

Always the important stuff with you. What about the fun stuff like in cabin television? Got to set your priorities friend. 😇😇😇, -B

Concierge Service Steve. Top notch Grace! -B

What situation is that US? Curious as I own products from both vendors and I have no issues. Should I? -B

LATE EDIT: SimApp Pro can only enable this functionality in a300-600 version 1.0.3 or later. Earlier versions of the a340-600, I.e. 1.0.2 or below, don’t. Sorry for any confusion if any. Full transparency. I am aware of the issues (WASM/CTDs) seen and reported by some owners of the a340. I say some, because it is some. Enough “some” that AS issued a rollback path for those who desired but the a340-600 v 1.0.3 is working splendidly for me. I’m 15 min from TOD of my second 3+ hour flight of the day. After WinCTRL dropped this app the 600 has become my favorite 340, just slightly edging out my 300 if for nothing else than too many hours in the 300. Familiarity breeds contempt so they say.😇 -B

Just tested and working well. YMMV TANSTAAFL Blue skies, -B 1.16.102: 1. The AGP device supports the iniBuilds A300-600 model of MSFS2024. 2. URSA MINOR 32 Throttle Metal / 32 PAC Metal devices now supports the iniBuilds A300-600 model of MSFS2024. 3. The ECAM device supports the iniBuilds A300-600 model of MSFS2024. 4. The MCDU device supports the Aerosoft Aircraft A340-600 model of MSFS2024. 5. The FCU + EFIS device supports the Aerosoft Aircraft A340-600 models of both MSFS2020 and MSFS2024.

Just dropped. Blue skies, -B ## Avionics & Systems - Added efficiency loss to the engines, depending on the bleed air setting - Added automatic display of ITT digits when the BLD AIR or PRESS SOURCE knob is not NORM - Added missing right aileron trim indicator - Added display of fuel flow when combustion is detected during engine start - Added EGT effects to the APU that is based on electrical and bleed load - Added “LANDING GEAR,” “NO TAKEOFF,” and “CABIN ALTITUDE” aural alerts - Added the ability to enter the CRU thrust target when toggling the autothrottle - Added the P/S HEAT ON caution message that displays when the pitot-static heat has been selected ON for more than 2 minutes while on the ground - Added a progressive brake application when using a button input to brake - Refactored rudder & tiller steering input detection (separate rudder and tiller should now work again) - Fixed response timer expired message from being sent if the recipient was not a CDA - Fixed the ability to hand over an aircraft without being logged on to a facility - Fixed aircraft.cfg not displaying type code as C680 - Fixed the bleed air monitor producing an ENGINE COLD caution message prior to when the engine nacelle valve was commanded open - Fixed Hoppie not parsing CLEARED as PDC - Fixed MRN in NCDA message - Fixed the bus tie relay not being powered by the RH EMER BUS - Fixed the pressurization controller from being able to use altitude ADC data from GSD3 - Fixed the brake control system from momentarily accepting brake inputs when the parking brake or chocks were engaged - Fixed the autothrottle speed protection system not re-engaging the autothrottle if it was on prior to protection - Fixed the MIN/MAX speed protection not providing “disconnected” feedback to the pilot if the AT was off prior to engagement - Fixed the ADF frequency not changing - Fixed the takeoff data computer not displaying the correct max temperature for the given conditions -

Quite nicely done. Two years of polishing make it quite so. You should not be disappointed. YMMV. TANSTAAFL. Blue skies, -B

Not for me. I don’t have any issue hearing the trim wheel. If anything I hear it too much. YMMV. TANSTAAFL. Blue skies, -B

Ditto for me. Followed instructions, no issues. Runs and performs great. YMMV. TANSTAAFL. Blue skies, -B

From Aerosoft Discord Today: Rollback to version 1.0.2 available after multiple bugs reported/identified in version 1.0.3. YMMV. TANSTAAFL. Blue skies, -B <@&1255900409428705451> We just wanted to provide a quick update regarding the 1.0.3 patch for thr A340-600. We are aware of the issues many of you have reported here, on the forum and via tickets. As we announced some of our team is at FSExpo but we're still monitoring the reports and are working to get the fixes out ASAP. In the meantime, we have enabled the option to downgrade to 1.0.2 via the experimental branch (Aerosoft One users only at the moment). To do so, you will need to uninstall the aircraft and then reinstall by choosing Install Experimental Release through your library.

Just Flight has a plethora of Regional Jets, one of my favorites being the RJ Professional. The Aerosoft CRJ is another consideration as is Leonardo Software’s Maddog 20th Anniversary Edition. All good and proper small hop jets and each more than capable of keeping you entertained and busy for years to come. Blue skies, -B

I have both. a340-300 is far more evolved than the a340-600 at this point. If you have WinCTRL Hardware only the ini supports it currently. The -600 may catch up to the -300 at some point but based upon AS track record developing the a330 I would not hold my breath. Blue skies, -B

I spent 15 years doing Fortune 500 IT Security in PNW. It was more often than not we did some sort of offsite or team building event at the Sunriver Resort at least every two or three years. Loved Sunriver but we always got bussed in. No fleet of Sovereigns and Phenoms for us! Thank you OP for your hard work. Already downloaded! Blue skies, -B

Did all my training for my SEL PPL in cheetahs and tigers circa 1976. A most definite day one purchase for me too! Blue skies, -B

You don’t shop at iniBuilds much, do you. 😇. Blue skies, -B

Those look more like melted photogrammetry as opposed to objects from a local object library such as you would find in a scenery built for stimulation to me. YMMV. TANSTAAFL. Blue skies, -B
