Citation Sovereign+ Video Walkthrough
Worked fine for me, loading up ILS with VTF into EGPE. All seemed as I would expect. Do other G3000/G5000 aircraft have the same issue for you?

Citation Sovereign+ Video Walkthrough
Textures / materials are definitely weaker than other bizjet offerings, including Longitude, Phenom & FlightFX aircraft. That includes the cockpit as well, definitely needs work. Sounds, systems and handling all seem up there though. Managed a short flight and it all worked as expected, although engine spool up takes an eternity.

Phenom 300 soon? (released 18 May 26)
I've yet to see it in the HJet or Longitude, although I guess not seeing it does not mean it isn't a WT/Asobo issue. Be interesting to see if it happens in the C680 as often....

Phenom 300 soon? (released 18 May 26)
Can see this one ending up hangered until they fix the issue with the PFD restarting mid flight, last two flights it has managed to time it so it goes out once on final, the other during a circle to land approach. FSR have it down as a WT issue, although oddly, once that hasn't affected any other aircraft for me (yet).

Phenom 300 soon? (released 18 May 26)
Back in the P3D days a Caranado Business Jet would probably have set you back that much, and whilst they looked pretty, their avionics were absolutely useless. You could also be assured that any bugs / errors etc would absolutely NEVER be fixed. I believe there is a patch due out today for the Phenom (as in I am sure I read it on their Discord), so they do seem pretty hard at it still, with some nice new features coming as well...

Phenom 300 soon? (released 18 May 26)
Easily to 10,000 ft, then down to about 4000 by 20,000. Far in excess of any other aircraft in my fleet...

Phenom 300 soon? (released 18 May 26)
Weird, I can quite easily set TO / CLB on the throttles, works exactly the same as any FADEC equipped business jet I have flown in any sim. CRZ seems to be a range rather than an exact detent. Not sure if CSC works or is simulated as nothing is annunciated when you press it. Either way I get it to sit happily at approx m.78. Got to say though it feels very overpowered on climb, in CLB it has Lear 24 like performance.... But then again I've never flown in one.

The new forum look - is there a compact view?
I'll third that, immensely annoying. I'd start a new post about that, but I can't since trying to do that causes chrome to crash on both my PC & phone.

That looks like a pretty decent price for what you are getting. Was expecting it to be more than that.

Who else fully moved over to MSFS2024 this week?
Not here, still on FS2020 & XP - have installed most of my payware aircraft to it in the last few weeks, but whilst it loads up quick - loading in the scenery takes an age, and still ends up looking far worse than FS2020. That's with decent internet as well .. .. G
- Freight aircraft to recommend

Black cockpit mod for PMDG 737?
For some strange reason cockpit mods for PMDG aircraft never last long. I am aware of at least 3 similar mods emerging and then suddenly vanishing for their 737. G

Carenado Premier IA
Same MO they have always had then. Will wait for stuff from a decent developer, wasted enough cash on Caranado garbage over the years. G

Xtreme Prototypes Gates Lear 25 Coming September 9 2025!
Can't remember, as I said, no longer have p3d installed. Doubt I'll get the FS version as the FSW 35 is fantastic, and I flew it in p3d far more than the 25. As for in cruise, pretty sure the autothrottle used to work fine, although always felt like a total cheat as the real aircraft doesn't have it. G

Xtreme Prototypes Gates Lear 25 Coming September 9 2025!
Last time I used it, trying IAS mode without Autothrottle in was utterly hopeless, completely unstable and incapable of holding speed. P3D is totally gone for me, so not able to test it see if they patched it so it works properly, although the video above would suggest they didn't. G

Watching that video and amazed by the fact they still haven't learnt how to do IAS hold yet without making a mock autothrottle. G

Beyond ATC experiences...
This has been a big issue with BATC since day 1, at any airport though, not just EGLL. It will also happily vector you when vectors are not appropriate. My absolute favourite being into Paro, although that one was a while ago... G

FlightFX Cessna 750 (Citation X)--released
If any single word there was accurate, then it would be. Whilst everyone is entitled to their opinion, that is a complete misrepresentation of what the product is. Fortunately, it would be quite easy for anyone to verify the inaccuracy of that post. G

FS2020 v FS2024 - which is better?
For me I have FS2024 graphics turned down to the point it looks like FS2020. Still moans about VRAM every flight..... ..... plus ChasePlane works in FS2020. So for me, absolutely no advantage in 2024 at this time. G
-
FlightFX Cessna 750 (Citation X)--released
@blueshark747 That looks great, think the aircraft looks so much better without winglets. That said I'm now converted to the winglet version for the performance benefit. G
-
FlightFX Cessna 750 (Citation X)--released
Wonder if that's down to the G5000 (although has been fine on my machine), whereas the X uses a massively modified version of the CJ4's PL21. G

FlightFX Cessna 750 (Citation X)--released
Absolutely this, same for the Longitude. All three are very good. Realistically for me the only major difference in terms of quality is the cabin interior and the tablet (FS2020). The main difference is in terms of the aircraft itself. M0.92 and getting up above FL450 is great, even if BATC doesn't work (it's wrong above FL410 and loses it if you ask for above FL450). All that said, I keep a record of all of my flights, and in the 1800 flights I have logged it is extremely rare for me to fly the same aircraft twice in a row. My last 12 flights have been in the C750. As for Autothrottle, it's nice to have, especially in cruise. Aircraft also works just as well without, or with it turned off. G

If your VA doesn't fly what you want, then it may be time to get a new VA. G

M0.87 ??? I might do that if I needed the range, else M0.92.... 😉 G
