That’s a great looking one! By the end of their careers they were mainly towing targets for navy training I think. I saw them a lot at Shearwater and I think they were transferred to Greenwood for their last few years of service.

Oh what?! That’s awesome! I grew up under the circuit for a Canadian airbase where these were extensively used. I’m super excited to see this.

Ah man, I just bought the MXI version in the marketplace sale…

SLH is nice. You can also get it in a nice bundle with a lot of other nice Caribbean airports.

I’m about to spend two weeks in England, Scotland and Ireland so I’ll be looking forward to retracing (flying over) my steps with a new world update!

That’s awesome, not that it’s huge deal having to manually change profiles, but it’s definitely a great quality of life fix. This will allow me to use FSUIPC less which can be a pain figuring out some axis assignments. Dare I dream for the ability to assign portions of the axis range to reversers/beta within MSFS24?

I wonder if the speed dropped too low and you entered a protection throttle mode, forcing high thrust?

I’m quite happy with navigraph but perhaps if anything, some competition will bring the price down a bit.

In my experience GSX is very stable now. I was having some issues with coutl crashing / stopping but they were patched out several months ago.

I’ve seen the same. I know with some heavies the 250/10,000 limit is not enabled by default because they need to go faster to safely climb at heavy weights, I’m not sure if the MD-11 is one of them.

GSX if you have it. Pushback is much more automated and will generally leave you in a good spot rather than you needing to specify distances etc.

Thanks guys, doing more reading on this I found that the issue could be the sense pins in the power connector sending erroneous signals. I bought an aftermarket 12VHPWR cable from Cablesense that claims to address this issue. Just installed yesterday so will see if his fixes it.

Liveries are installed by copying the livery folder in the zips that you download into your community folder.

Did my first flight tonight, overall despite having not "flown" an MD-11 since the PMDG version (FSX, maybe early P3D?), I was able to remember how to get it up and running, FMC programmed etc. Lots of "oh yeah" moments with the MD quirks. Flight was nice and enjoyable overall, pitch definitely seems overly sensitive though, especially when coming in to land. For some reason my usual FSUIPC axis settings wouldn't work for reverse thrust (I use a range on the axis since my throttle quadrant has a detent). Overall quite nice and I'm happy to be flying a three holer again!

This is exactly what I was going to type, best combo for me
