I've been using FSX and P3D (each version) for near 30 years. However, I invested in Xplane 11 last month to be ready for the Challenger C650. Unbelievable product. I have to say, I am very impressed with Xplane and I wasn't even aware of this upcoming MD11 beauty! Bonus! For anyone interested XP11 cost me £48 and I've spent a small amount on Xcamera and invested in a few Orbx True Earth regions and I have a great system. I'd like to contrast something else. The fantastic study level (3 year old) Hot Start TBM 900 compared with the Carenado PC12 (see my logo) which was externally pretty but which needed a GTN and a great 'Bert mod' - to make it even work! Just my thoughts from a (possibly former) P3D user!

Let’s bear in mind PMDG base model 747 is $140 and even the aged NGX is $100. From what I’ve seen so far this looks like being in the same class. So the price sounds fair to me. Roll on weekend!

Thanks I’ve already got a great gaming laptop and Santa brought me Track IR 😀 Any downside to Steam edition can you still get the add ons like Phenom I’m now drooling over?

This looks great. I’m heavily into Biz Jets. However, I’ve never had Xplane! (90%P3DV5. 10%MSFS.) I don’t mind a £60 investment but what else is essential? If I’m into systems and online flying and not too bothered about eye candy could you guys suggest minimum shopping list for Xplane adding. (cost). And please tempt me with the other superior biz jets I could add. Thanks!

Hi Guys I have recently had to reinstall my FA50 with Ramon's Mod. The GTN gauge is showing but it is flashing with the background changing from blue to yellow to white. I have uninstalled GTN, Mod and FA 50 and rebuilt it all from scratch. Using P3d V4 with the hot fix. My mod was downloaded in January. Thanks anyone.

I have both. The Mod installed F1GTN then I converted it to RXP.

Ramon Sorry for delay responding. The mod works great with the RXP GTN750. Made a Carenado aircraft beautiful and functional! Thanks. Dean

Installed the mod thanks. Looks great. But, I couldn’t get it to follow GPS NAV course. (Selected GPS on GTN.) Converted to RXP. Still wouldn’t follow UNTIL I added a RXP pop up gauge. On this GTN the NAV works - but this guage seems to have no link to the two GTNs in the panel???

Thanks Ramon. Message sent. Looking forward to this. Dean

I’d like this mod but can’t PM the author. Is there a download link?

Great news. Since your mod this Citation has been getting out of the hanger far more often. For me, it is fighting with the XP Lear Jet which is already a brilliant professionally supported aircraft. (compared to Carenado's sell it and leave it policy)

Hi Just my thoughts but the GTN750 is one of the most essential add-ons if you are into GA or Bizjet Flying. It is about the cost of a good aircraft addon and will just keep on giving and giving - brilliant value. Support for occasional issues can sometimes take a little time - but they boast they have never had a problem they couldn't fix. Dean

This works great for me. Love the Course and heading adjustment Knobs on standby instrument. Is there something similar for altitude selection or do we have to shift 3? Also, is there no way to pop up the GTN - shift or click spot? Ive read climb speed 235IAS. Can someone advise me of and guide on climb thrust settings (and cruise and landing)? Great job. Dean

Didn't you say "I'm not much on eye candy but systems modelling is very important."? The Youtube reviews and tutorials demnstrate clearly the nature of the interiors and yes they are a little old. As G suggested you really should try to fly this beast. It is a challenge and once your cruising at 45.000 feet the exterior views are excellent. Assuming you followed the previous advice to buy from Eaglesoft / Flight1 you can still get your refund in 29 days. Let us know how you get on.

If you read the forums (which you may not have accessed yet) they recommend switching off WD and all antivirus while downloading and installing.
