MSFS 2024 Manual
Does anyone know of a printed manual for the sim? I'm of the age where I enjoy a printed manual. I'm still in the dark about assigning keys and sliders etc. Plus I have no doubt there are many other things to learn. I'm a retired pilot so the flying part is fine but learning my way around the sim itself is challenging. Many thanks.

MarketPlace issue
Recently reinstalled both 2020 & 2024 after a Win11 problem and required a reinstall of Winn11 also. I'm in Canada but marketplace thinks I am in the USA and gives prices in US$ and will not recognize payment method installed with the XBOX Microsoft which it always has before. Any ideas how to get 2020 & 2024 to believe I am in Canada?

Opinions on getting a 7900XTX for triple 1440p (MSFS2020)
dbw1 replied to bertro514's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI switched from that card to the 5070ti approx 18 months ago. I was having driver issues that could not be resolved. I was concerned about dropping from 20 to 16 vram but no problems other than a very rare vram warning. My cpu is a 7800xt3, 64 gigs Ram and drives are of the m.2 variety. Luckily my machine was built before the prices went crazy.

Heads up! PMDG sale on right now
Should read 5070ti and r2800. Small screen, fat fingers......

Heads up! PMDG sale on right now
I did a flight a couple days ago and it works great for me (7800xt3, 5057ti, 64g ram). I run it on a 49" widescreen msi monitor at full res. I have real world time on the R3800 engines and they are a highlight for me. The autopilot takes a bit of learning. Pressurization is interesting too.

SimHeaven's X-World Pro available
What is involved in the install process for X-World Pro? Not being the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to some of this I would need it to be relatively easy. Thanks for any responses.

Auto Pilot Issues in MSFS 2024
I have found that occasionally the autopilot is simply possessed for lack of better words and for me doing a restart of the sim usually corrects it. I have experienced this in both 2020&2034 and it is usually the pitch mode that acts up.

Blocked
Thanks Bob for the thought. I've tried that both on and off with the VPN.....which isn't a Canadian one, thankfully. I'm even cut off from OC3. I'm hoping someone from pmdg will see a post such as this one and contact me. I've been a customer since the Fly days, 25+ years.

Blocked
For approx 2 weeks I have been blocked on all things to do with PMDG and I have no idea why. Communication attempts have remained unanswered. If anyone has contacts with PMDG perhaps they could contact them on my behalf and ask them to pm me here. Thank you.

Next Gen Emb -110
I have V1. I think it is pretty good. 30+ years ago I spent 2 years flying one and close to 2000 hours on type. It was/is a great machine to fly in the rw and this sim version was enjoyable. I'll be buying this latest version.

PMDG DC-6 Update
Even in the 1990s and past 2000 holes in gps coverage were anything but uncommon. The last time I encountered one was approx 2012 in north western Ont actually doing a gps approach and the gps unit lost coverage. Did the missed at that point. Retired in 2016.
