Black Square Announces the B60 Duke!
DavidP replied to Mets737's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I'll begin flying the real thing very soon so I hope they do a good job -
A Garmin nav data subscription or an aircraft owner with a nav data subscription who may be able to assist.

But you are now the master of your domain 😁

If nothing was said then RSR would get flamed. He can't win either way.

Give me P3D with MSFS graphics and I'm a happy camper

Like I always say - you don't need to be a bright spark to be a pilot.

I think it very much depends on the country. In my country, it is very common to receive the instruction "when ready, descend to XXX". This means that the aircraft can descend from their own ToD point - I do it in my own aircraft using VNAV on my GTN750. I would imagine the airliner would simply activate VNAV until they receive instructions from ATC that precludes them from using VNAV. So much depends on the circumstances - traffic, weather etc.

Fenix A320 Version 2 progress update
DavidP replied to Krakin's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I would say the fickleness of simmers makes me think that. -
Fenix A320 Version 2 progress update
DavidP replied to Krakin's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Some other developers that do that get slayed by the punters for taking too long. It very much depends on who the developer is as to whether they get cut that slack or not. -
Fenix A320 Version 2 progress update
DavidP replied to Krakin's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
As a practising Instructor I have never considered what the actual touchdown rate is, nor do I teach it. -
Pattern flight for Longitude?
DavidP replied to spinoza's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Go to most airfields in Australia that support "Airline Cadet" training schools and you'll see 172's flying downwind nearly 3nm from the field. -
FS Labs Concorde 32-bit - the long goodbye.
DavidP replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
I think most people who have been simming for any length of time would know to take that with a massive grain of salt. -
Usual streamers are streaming the PMDG 737-900
DavidP replied to Steve Dra's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
It really is getting a bit like that. This includes Airbus - always another slant on the A32x family. If someone came out with a high fidelity long haul Airbus, a 787 etc then that would create some serious interest. Otherwise, yes, it is becoming boring. -
I quite like the Wizz Air livery
-
Looks like a C5 Galaxy at the rear, 787 at the front and a BAE146 in the middle. Ugly.
-
I'm no insider but I doubt that will be happening.

The GTN is driven by the real Garmin Trainer aircraft owners use. It is a Garmin database that cannot be reverse engineered. Periodically it is updated when the Trainer is updated. See which is the latest Trainer the RXP supports and that might be a bit newer.

You would need to get a very expensive subscription from Garmin or find someone with a real aircraft who may help you.

Is MSFS The Perfect Flight Simulator
DavidP replied to Sky_Pilot071's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Think I'll sit back and watch how this pans out. -
Dumb question - What are "bespoke" textures?
DavidP replied to slait's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Only in rural areas of Australia. In the cities, particularly in the inner-city areas, where the self-appointed "intelligentsia" live it is becoming more and more prevalent for people to be pretentious, and as we say out here, "up themselves". -
Flightsim Labs Concorde preview 23/12/22
DavidP replied to bendead's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I guess I have an inquisitive mind. I find it fascinating to be able to get an insight into an ingenious system that took inter-continental flights past using bubble sextants long before GPS was even thought of. I guess that's just me 🤷♂️. Each to their own. -
Another lump of coal: PMDG Update [24DEC22]
DavidP replied to Keirtt's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
The usual suspects who slag off at RSR's writing style, pricing policy, development time frame and general mocking just to name a few items. It is hardly "discussing" ... 🙄
