You change the FL on the perf page - I ran into that problem last week :)

I just landed after a 90 minute flight, and had no trouble at all maintaining speed on approach, but I'd disconnected the AP and AT. Was he using the automatics on final ? Where I had trouble - the a/c couldn't even think about reaching the cruise altitude Simbrief had planned - and she tried really hard to drive herself into a stall. Was using the F100 with 90 odd passengers onboard. We were much happier around FL260. I'd suspect that says more about the Simbrief perf calculations than the a/c itself. So it was a more sporty flight than I'd expected, but overall I really enjoyed it. And if there are flight model issues, I'm certain, based upon their past experience, JF will address it quickly. I'm a very happy customer!

With the heatwave going on there, they're probably worried about melting their server... :)

I'm fine with the Inibuilds A350, but I'd forgotten the FBW A380. That performed even worse for me. So the LVFR is an improvement (of sorts), at least until the Inibuilds comes out.

I've got all the heavies from PMDG, INIBUILDS, Aerosoft, etc. This is the only model I've ever used that gives constant VRAM warnings. No problems performance-wise, but having that bubble popping up every time I change views became so annoying I just killed the flight. And yes - I know I can lower my settings, but don't see the point for just one plane.

Lol! I literally just landed at the default LXGB and said to myself "hey, that looks pretty good"! It was dusk - so the lighting wasn't that great. Now I'm wondering if I got the wrong impression...

I've flown it around the world twice already - and never had a problem that wasn't my fault. Performance has been fine on my machine (9800X3D/RTX5080/32GB). I use the automated flight engineer - and he's done his job perfectly for me. Only issue - I noticed on Simbrief import it loads all cargo into the aft cargo bay which upsets the CG - but I just change it manually. It's at least as good as the old Just Flight Professional version, and looks a whole lot better too.

Nope, no FFB yoke here, just the Thrustmaster Boeing yoke and Honeycomb Bravo throttle. But thanks for trying to find a solution for me! Another issue I hadn't mentioned was that the framerate dropped significantly as soon as I hit LNAV; I wasn't able to determine if that was the CSS 737 or SU5 doing it's usual thing. There's lots to love about the model - hand flying was excellent. Hopefully future updates will tame it.

What a lovely surprise. Instant purchase. Very happy to see this available. I have the old FS2020 model, and I really enjoy it, but this will most certainly replace it.

Call me an word not allowed, but I tried a 7th flight. Set up exactly the same as all the previous ones. Only loaded 20 passengers, and actually got off the ground at the calculated V speeds. Autopilot engaged... following heading, and VS. Turned to intercept the nav course (I didn't have a SID programmed) and lined it up. Engage LNAV... aircraft does a 360. Entered a Direct-to - as I probably should have. The aircraft now flew about 70 degrees away from the planned course. Then decided that 360's are more fun. Okay. Back to PMDG and Fenix. This baby just isn't ready for prime time - at least on my system it isn't.

I decided to take a chance. The planes look great. But... I've started from cold and dark, and tried the "ready for start" and "ready to takeoff" settings as well. So far I've attempted 6 flights, and each one ended with me running off the end of the runway at over 200 knots - I can't make the aircraft rotate. I tried a flight with 600lbs of fuel - finally managed to get it off the ground. At 2500ft I engaged the autopilot - and the aircraft promptly flew straight into the gound. I've run out of ideas of things to try. I've been playing with flightsims since the 80's, and I honestly can't remember ever having this much trouble with a payware plane. I'm open to suggestions! Also wondering if I'm the only one in this predicament!

I've done 3 flights since linking up Navigraph/FSLTL and in each case I got stuck behind a lineup of aircraft taxying for the holding point. I've got flying, taxying, and parked all over the place.

I was wondering about that myself, but don't have time to check today. Thank you for the response!

Can you configure the AP to follow a GPS route now? I can't see the GPS clearly enough to try following the route using heading hold etc, and I'd love to fly a DC-9 in the sim, even if the majority of users would consider using GPS as sacrilege!

I had those showing up on the default 744 whenever I returned to the cockpit. They'd be visible for about a second, then they'd disappear, only to repeat the process next time I returned to the view from looking at something else. Only started happening (to me at least) after the latest sim update.
