Ahhh so you might still have vram issues but you've removed the message hehe. I will check out the mod as well because the popup annoys me greatly heh!

I guess a lot of people like analog gauges. The 2024 lear 35 at least, is pretty in depth with solid systems, excellent sounds, and a decent flight model (at least that's what one of their testers told me who flew it). Plus it has dual TDS GTNxi support which allows you have more modern flexibility. I don't mind analog gauges but I like to be able to shoot all kinds of approaches and not just NDB/VOR/LOC/ILS.

They said marketplace release hopefully around 1700-1800z today

This is an amazing time to be a bizjet lover! You already found the C750 (quality of life updates coming Soon TM) Here's some strong points of further options.... Skyward C680 - superb flight model and soundset (I mean it - the sound is maybe the best for any addon), superb climber, excellent at short fields FSR Phenom 300E - superb systems depth and unique FBO system, good at short field, good climber into the low 30s FlightFX Piaggio P180 - nice EFB, flight model, sounds Flysimware Lear 35 - Excellent soundset, flight model (2024 native), great climb performance Contrail Falcon 50 - a unique retro experience, especially with a very different avionics suite, relatively speedy flight plan about mach .82 in the 30s Default 2024 Longitude - fastest of all of these (mmo .84) - in depth systems, beautiful visuals There is an upcoming iniBuilds Global 6000 as well as the WT/Microsoft Embraer Praetor - both use Pro Line Fusion avionics. I'm HIGHLY awaiting these two bizjets. FlightFX has a few things up their sleeve as well ;) I almost forgot about the upcoming Just Flight Lear 45!

I'm shocked you would say that. I have resource messages all the time now in SU5 beta. Perhaps you're not in SU5 beta but that's what coming.... I would absolutely buy a 5090 right now if I had the power supply and money. I wouldn't even hesitate. The VRAM exhaustion is real even with mostly HIGH presets, my RTX 4080 and 1440p monitor. I also have a Reverb G2 and it's not really usable in SU5 beta anymore. I do run a lot of addons though, I love airport addons, paired with high end GA, and I like clouds on Ultra. I tend to run TLOD 300 but sometimes I run AutoFPS cause in the rural areas I enjoy a higher TLOD maybe near 600. SU4 was much better for my system - I hope performance returns. If you search the web, your case appears to be an outlier. Most complain about performance and vram exhaustion in SU5 beta.

What's your general impression of the sim version? I haven't updated mine to 2024 yet. I generally liked in 2020 but I don't fly airliners that much.

I haven't had to deal with support, but my experience buying the Orion rudder pedals was outstanding. Everything arrived in great shape (and arrived in less than a week), the build quality was excellent. The software isn't super intuitive but it's fine with me. I met some of them at the Expo - they had a huge booth. Maybe the largest - tons of reps. So clearly they are doing well with sales. It's interesting to hear of this nightmare though. That's gotta be extremely frustrating.

Yep, I did a screenshot post a few days ago and showed off a little of their app - it's really useful and laid out quite well. I absolutely understand that some people abhor subscriptions, but this is pretty cheap for what you get. It really is a cup of (nice) coffee per month. I don't want to discard the incredible work WorkingTitle has done either, and the partnership between Lido and Microsoft - impressive they pulled that off. The native flightplanner/efb is pretty decent as well.

It could be an alternate for airliners during an emergency... there's another airport waaaay up in Alaska, that's also a common emergency airport - PASY

It's not wrong to point out facts. It's possible their settings got out of sync somehow but I've never seen that. I have seen cloud issues in the sim though (like server I mean hehe)

Yeah not showing for me yet either via Xbox version Hopefully this helps cause the last SU5 beta has been awful for performance. Tons of memory popups with almost any addon I use. And sadly that's been with lower TLOD (200 or less) and textures set to HIGH I've got a decent card with 16GB vram (RTX 4080)

PG is ON in your pics! You can see the specific buildings - they're not generic. I'm not talking about the POI's - those are custom scenery probably built by Gaya (like the bridge and the structure in your last photo). But the slightly morphed/melted buildings are 100% TIN/PG! Pictures... Lucky for you London has a lot of nice custom POIs and custom crafted buildings. A lot of large cities don't have that

I thought the 40xx cards dont natively support more than 2x... that's probably why higher isn't very stable.

Just an important caveat about the LIDO charts - it's only for airports which an airliner would fly into. So if you do General Aviation (and you fly outside of the USA, because FAA charts covers that area), you won't have any charts. Navigraph is still very relevant and their app is superb as well.
