About Me
Started with MS flight simulator back in 1987 when it was version 2 (I think), stuck with it till now (FSX, FSX-SE, P3D all versions and MSFS), couldn't get along with X-Plane (Sorry).
I work in aircraft maintenance since 1990, worked on L1011, MD11, B777-200/300/F, B747 classic -400 and -8F, E-170, A320/1, and B787-9/10.

During SDK Dev update, they mentioned that SDK will be released 21 Oct as ALPHA version. Now they are asking users to sign up for tech ALPHA test version. we have merely 40 days to official release date, is this time enough to test ALPHA, then BETA then RC and finally a final release version with in this short time? Am I missing something?

Flickering PMDG glass cockpits w/ panning w/ Nv FG?
penta_a replied to Noel's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
@Noel if you guys are talking about monitor flickering (white strobe like) at the bottom or some times all around, I found that when (motion blur) in general graphic section is selected OFF I get this issue, when selecting any other choice (low, mid, high or ultra) problem is gone. try it, it might work for you to. -
in many of previous threads (FSL forums) their answer to any question regarding their upcoming products to MSFS was (we have nothing to share at this time). in the last thread that (surprisingly) still open and most of the OP quotes were taken, they changed the communication tone and most of their high management participated in the thread calmly and almost an answer to each user's entry or post, that tells me that they are (building excitement) for something not far from being announced, it is just a pure marketing to compensate for a very late market entry. just a hunch 😉

if you get to the point of entering authentication code and nothing happens, make sure to allow pop ups in your browser, worked for me. -
The update boring trap
penta_a replied to guenseli's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I remember dropping P3D/XP/WS the moment MSFS was announced, I spent most of my time jumping from forum to another, searching for interviews, searching for videos, till alpha was dropped, then BETA, then final release with each update after that and so on, can't help it, now waiting eagerly for 2024, don't care about new add ons, I will just get some if I ever do just to kill time. you are not alone mate. -
