Terrible performance with X-codr AEP (AEP overlay)
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.

Terrible performance with X-codr AEP (AEP overlay)
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.

FlightFX Hawker Beechcraft 800XP
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.

FlightFX Hawker Beechcraft 800XP
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.

FlightFX Hawker Beechcraft 800XP
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?

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

Fx Vision Jet G3000 density altitude
yes. temperature. I posted the rule of thumb above.

Fx Vision Jet G3000 density altitude
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....

Airliners Piloting Skills
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. (Blue/white range rings)

Question for you real pilots
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.

Tailwheel Survey
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. ๐ That said, I prefer tricycle gear simply because I have way more experience on those.

Trim Settings; Trim Wheel vs Electric Trim...
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.

C172 Flight Characteristics
Yeah. Need some addtional 100-150 RPM in order to match the performance of the 172SP I fly. My reference: Approach in F20 @ 1450 RPM, I can easily maintain 70-74KIAS. But in the sim, airspeed is slowly bleeding off despite being far from heavily loaded. Not a big deal, but I concur with your experience. Redundancy in IFR is really not about which system is more likely to fail . Itโs about making sure primary + stand AI by donโt fail for the same reason.
