Kodiak 100 Wheels for MSFS2024 Install Error
Just installed the aircraft and had no issues. It went straight to the Community folder which I have on a separate drive.

Goodbye MSFS. Hello X-Plane
I never thought that I would have to make this decision, but the 2047 error has finally beat me. Every time I start the sim the first keystroke brings up the 2047 error and each further keystroke does the same thing. I am sick of having to try resetting my controls every time I attempt using the sim. Last night I reinstalled X-Plane and did my first flight in 6 years and was impressed with the way everything went. I setup my honeycomb Alpha and Bravo and Velocity Pedals in a matter of minutes. Much easier than MSFS. As for the scenery it's OK. I could keep going but I that would achieve nothing. Happy flying Dissy

FlightSimGames PC-6 Porter Now Available
The aircraft received a very poor review which, I believe, was total unjustified. The only thing I would like to see changed is the position of the of those nasty 2 click buttons to somewhere else less intrusive. Under the auto pilot and more like a normal button. I love flying the aircraft.

Unable to make purchases from the Marketplace SU3
I finally found the answer to my problem. I run a VPN. I now go to the marketplace and make my selection to purchase. I then disconnect my VPN go back to the marketplace and select purchase by other means and hit enter. This takes me to PayPal and the purchase is made. I then wait for the installation to complete and reactivate the VPN. Cheers Ian

Unable to make purchases from the Marketplace SU3
That is correct MS store is OK. I've now got the marketplace to recognise PayPal and take me to Authenticator to carry out the proper authentication. Unfortunately, it still only gets to the black screen with the dreaded three flashing white dots. It seems that the marketplace is linking to the MS store. I haven't given up yet, but I am getting close.

Unable to make purchases from the Marketplace SU3
I have not been able to make purchases from the marketplace since SU2 and now in SU3. I have a Credit Card, a Debit Card and PayPal as alternative payment types but nothing works. I get a box indicating MS store which becomes the dreaded black box with the three flashing white dots. I can use any of the 3 payment methods in the Microsoft store When will this be solved. I believe from a previous post that Microsoft, using a member's details, with their permission, could not make a purchase. To me this just as important as any other issues and maybe more important.

Career mode thoughts
The career mode is something I will never even consider using. I am happy with the free flight mode which seems to be working well. Low and slow with the occasional mid level high performance twin. As for the commercial jets, why sit in front of a computer to watch another computer fly the aircraft. Just my personal view of course. I get a constant 60fps with the Graphics card running at 45% so I am very happy with MSFS2024 Merry Christmas and a Happy to all flight simmers

Is the Short SC.7 Skyvan working for you?
Tried again but fuel pressure to both engines is zero.

Is the Short SC.7 Skyvan working for you?
I can get it to start as per the checklist on a parking bay. The only problem is that I can't get any power out of the engines. I will be having another attempt at it tonight.

Premium de Luxe version reverted to Base version
Greetings. I have had this happen on a couple of occasions and the cause was the computer not recognizing the MSFS drive. You will need to go into your boot settings to fix the problem. Cheers Dissy

Blackbox Shorts 330/360 nose wheel steering.
This was a strange one. The nosewheel steering worked when in reverse thrust. I went into my Honeycomb Bravo settings and the throttle setting were stuffed. I've sorted the throttle settings out to what they should be and everythingseems OK

Blackbox Shorts 330/360 nose wheel steering.
Is nosewheel steering available on this aircraft as it is the only aircraft I have without it. I find it almost impossible to steer using engine power and right or left braking. I love the aircraft but it looks like becoming a hangar model. Any help will be appreciated.

Full feather possible?
The method that I use on my Saitek Pro system for setting up the reverse on the JS41 (or any other aircraft for that matter), is to firstly when calibrating the throttle axis to place a check mark in the box “no reverse zone” on the calibration page, if you have this function. Then in the FSUIPC (registered version) tabs select “buttons + switches”, then move the lever that you have assigned as your throttle all the way back through the detent and you will see that the box named joy# will now have two numbers in it (on mine it is Joy # 2 20 button #), when you get the numbers for your set up in the boxes put a check mark in the box to the right named “select for FS control”, then from the drop down list below that chose either “throttle decrease” if you are using a single axis for both throttles, or if you have the two throttles on independent levers chose “throttle 1 decrease” or “throttle 2 decrease” depending on which level you are calibrating, then place a check mark in the box below named “control to repeat while held”. And that should be it, now when you move the throttle lever all the way back through the detent it will act as though you have the F2 key depressed and the throttles will go into reverse mode, and bringing the throttle lever out of the detent willl put the throttles back to ground idle. To decrease prop pitch use the above method "prop pitch decr" or "prop pitch X decr" where x is the prop No if you have individual prop axis. I found this in a post a long time ago and it works for me using a Saitek pro yoke and an additional throttle controller dissy

FSX Flight Planner
Thanks Tim,I thought that might be the problem. Seems that reality is a little limited in some areas of FSX. Maybe this could be corrected in the next version, with a bit of luckDissy
