    I skimmed through the “What’s New” section and the only reference to autothrottle was the removal of one option which never worked properly anyway.

    Note (1): The real Gates Learjet 20 Series aircraft were not equipped with an autothrottle for SPD/MACH Hold, even though we are giving our users the option to use the autothrottle that is readily available in Prepar3D. We know purists may find this feature unrealistic in the case of the Learjet 25/28 (in some of the real aircraft, the autopilot maintained speed by varying the aircraft’s pitch) but the vast majority of our users still appreciate the convenience of an autothrottle, especially when learning to fly the aircraft when there is so much to do

    Maybe not so much of a big deal that I initially made it to be 😛 maybe it was in previous versions as well.

    @Ray Proudfoot are you flying the V4? How do you find it?

    Great aircraft(s), but a strong computer is necessary.

    Uh oh might be a problem

    Where have you picked that up from? I have an earlier version of the Lear 25 and it has no autothrottle. What it does have is a SPD and Mach hold buttons on the autopilot.

    You manually control throttle until cruise and then engage one of those modes. It brings more hands-on action and I really enjoy that aspect.

    The manual for the V4 plane describes a few areas where autothrottle modes come into play. In the documentation it says many of their users prefer having this feature.

     It will work very well out of the box. It will just work a lot better once it's configured for whatever airports and aircraft that you have. Luckily most have already been done and you just have to add those to GSX. The iniManager has a section where you can select what you want and it will download and add the files to where they need to go for you. 

    +1 on this

    the inimanager GSX installation is really slick

    How do you use a simbrief plight plan so the sim uses that? I usually fly the fenix and loads into that..what about the sim itself?

    Have they fixed the issue where you can change the starting position to a gate without having it change yoru flight plan? Previously the alternative as to edit the flight plan to change add the gate position.

    I still can't find you point @level7 ?

    ...

    Well, anyway, I intend to continue to post this sort of posts because I really don't think that there's anything wrong with it, and please, do offer your alternatives on identical operational aspects of airline flying based on X-Plane 12, recorded by RW Airline pilots. I'll be glad to watch it !

    I think it's well intentioned for you to share content, but collectively making the Avsim X-Plane forum the Emi X-Plane notification channel seems a bit odd to me.

    Are you saying you want more variety, or you want less forums posts linked to streamers and youtubers?

    I think more content is good and it's always helpful when posters explain why they shared the content or what is interesting about it.
