I see that a 2.7 update is now out. Has the green windshield heat light logic been addressed in this update? Andrew

I had major issues with the Q400 and my hardware. It turned out simply that the various controller IDs were incorrect. As such, axes were active in the configurator that hadn't been even assigned in FSX or FSUIPC... You may need to check that the axes you are assigning are the on correct controller device... A

If I remember correctly, I do believe you have to be within certain navigation parameter limits of the course you wish to follow, in order for the NAV function of the autopilot in the Jetstream to capture... I am just getting back into this aircraft again after a couple of years not in it... A

It is more than just one developer that requires payment for different sim versions... A2A (completely separate with no upgrade pricing, other than offers on release sometimes), RealAir (offers cross-platform upgrade pricing) As well as one or two scenery developers even nowadays... A

It is also one of my go to testing grounds, just because it is so beautifully crafted and performs well. Great for that 30 minutes of free time in the evening to fire up the A2A Harvard/Texan and go for a spin over the island! A

So, how do you find your set of NFG Crosswinds Ron? I am loving mine... Andrew

I just removed my Saitek Cessna yoke, as I was constantly fighting with its detents. Removing one spring made it nicer to use, but I just didn't feel happy with it any more. The biggest problem in terms of yoke is that there is almost nothing else on the market other than the CH equipment (which looks too toy-like for my taste) that is even vaguely in the same price range. The yoke remains connected as I still need the prop and mix levers of the throttle unit, but I now run with a Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS with MFG Crosswind pedals. The Saitek trim wheels are great pieces of kit - I have two, one as rudder trim and the other as elevator trim, through FSUIPC... But I really want a throttle quadrant from virtual-fly and probably a yoke from PFC, but not for a year or two... A

Did you try reinstalling it? I noticed that the configuration panel was not available on updating the libraries and the new FTX Central system, so I reinstalled Rügen... A

I hope I am not the only one who just went to look up CFD, ODE, PDE and so on... My brain hurts Andrew

Are you sure you have the most up-to-date version of UK2000 EGCN? There appears to have been an AFCAD issue with an older version that was interfering. Make sure you are running the latest version of the airport... Andrew

It will be with us forever. You kick fanboyism off one platform, they eventually find another. That is life. It is up to the rest of us just simply to ignore them, preferably with no comment. To compare two items so far apart in terms of point in time of release to market is pointless, that is the opnly comment I will make on this video. Now, if two companies release the same airport/aircraft or whatever at pretty much the same point in time, then a constructive and objective comparison of the two products helps us as consumers to decide which one fits us better. Time to move along... A

May be a dumb question, but have you tried updating to the latest version of FSUIPC? It could be an issue of P3D in its latest version clashing with an older version of FSUIPC... A

Ben Weston from Airline2Sim sums it up well enough for me. Anybody putting out their wares on the market will soon know if the price they ask is justified. If you like the top-end stuff, you can wait for the odd sale or two that occurs. Granted, not all the design studios offer their goods at sale prices, but over the years I have picked up some good deals on OrbX goods, to name but one... If you feel that you do not wish to be at the cutting edge, or cannot afford it, sometimes a little patience is all that is required... Now, off to MilViz, I have had my eye on the F100 now for a few weeks... A

As one who has been vocal a little from time to time, though not on this forum, I would like to express my thanks to Colin for his in-depth post here. One of my issues was the lack of information on the development of the KA tied with a regular stream of new models in development and released. I am sure I was not alone in thinking that the KA was no longer a priority, even though it had been offered as a pre-pay. Life really is too short to get worked up about things like this. I am sure it will be out when it is is out... and not a day before... Thanks again Colin for the information... Andrew

I don't have P3D, so I can't really specifically help with that, but I do know the Harz region, as I live close by. The lake in your screenshot looks like the Söse Reservoir near Osterode. I agree with you that the land use is not correctly depicted here. Which landclass are you using? UTX Europe I believe does not bring full landclass, but only vector data plus a few other items. I could have a look at OpenLC Europe from OrbX in FSX to see what the coverage is. I also have FTX Global running there as well in FSX... A
