VOR accuracy is capped at RNAV5. Look up the navigation specification for European Airspace and you'll quickly realize there are little to no uses of VORs anymore. It's all RNP basically. Yes, many are being deliberately shut down but also downgraded to "DME only" . As backup ground solution, rho-rho is always more accurate than angular bearings from a VOR. EASA seems to pivot from its original 2030 deadline due to the dramatic increase in GNSS jamming and spoofing. CAT I ILS is now expected to be retained well beyond 2035 in the latest proposed NAV roadmap as a necessary Minimum Operational Network (MON) ground backup.

The issue is still present even when running default C172, I lose a large chunk of my frames. As soon as I lift off and additional scenery is loaded into the sim, frame creep occurs, slowly suffocating CPU frame time performance. Thanks for the replies, I will contact the author of the addon and try to find a cure.

I'm using XP12 Public (via Steam) Anyone else having extreme performance drop when using X-Codr AEP package? My CPU frame time is slowly increasing in the sim, while FPS drops to single digits. CPU itself is running at 30%/core in Performance manager, so I have plenty of overhead. This goes away if I disable the Custom scenery entry for "AEP_Overlays". But off course that's a major "USP" for the product itself so I'd rather have it enabled. I also have all layers of Simheaven Europe enabled, so I wonder if these two addons do not play nice together? X-Organizer shows no errors in my "custom scenery" layering.

Older PL21 installation afaik, but accurate. later models of PL21 Hawkers had indeed FMS needles in magenta. Edit: Same goes for the King Air B350 with PL21 avionics.

Seems like FFX has taken it up a notch regarding systems modelling and complexity? (judging from streams and product info, I don't own thee Hawker) But the performance in the CX750 is superior to that of the Hawker 800XP, different classes altogether. 10.000ft higher ceiling and cruises significantly faster.

As well as having a series of very unfortunate TKS post-maintenance crashes where stall tests were conducted. The Hawker is somewhat unique in that a near stall can induce very sudden aileron movement, snapping the ramhorns (yoke) out of the grip of the pilot, a.k.a "aileron word not allowed". No buffeting prior either, like we have on straight wings where you can feel the stall "building up" in the airframe.

My former home aerodrome. Looks like this :) Would you mind sharing some images from MSFS24?

Pretty sure Belgium uses conventional RVSM levels? The unconventional FIRs in Europe are LP, LE (including canarias) , LI and LF + LS (both above FL195)

I see someone else is also entangled in the paradigm shift towards Total Airport Management (TAM) concept. Fun stuff indeed. 😉

yes. temperature. I posted the rule of thumb above.

The displayed DA seems to be allright. Depending when the image was taken. Using current METAR as base. Find pressure altitude (4hpa below QNH) From there apply rule of thumb correction of 120 x ISA dev 525* + (120*11)= 1.845ft Density Altitude. *That is PA derived from field elevation of 645ft. Current QNH puts PA 120ft below field elevation, ergo 525ft. 1 hpa=30ft for simplicity....

Energy Management/descent planning. Heavy or lightly loaded?Early or late descend clearances all have their issues to tackle. Add descent out of a jetstream and you can be in for some nasty surprises. Airmiles for ground miles conundrum. Also throw in FMS /VNAV behavior to above, off path descent checks.

I am a real pilot, I'd love to try this out. Flies maybe 40-50hrs per year in Cessnas and Diamond Stars. Carry on your work @MrBitstFlyer, the majority of us roots for you and wishes you nothing but good fortunes.

I have flown a few tailwheel planes IRL. One particular interesting (and humbling) moment was on Cap10 and a flapless landing on a short field with 13 kt x-wind. Ground loop or tipping the nose over. Pick your poison....one puts your wingtip in the grass, the other puts your prop in it. 😄 That said, I prefer tricycle gear simply because I have way more experience on those.

Reduce power. Apply slight back pressure of the controls (to maintain altitude) Increase power to maintain the reduced airspeed (if necessary) Trim out the control forces.
