My experience at the Synaptic A220 booth
Or you don't mind it bucking like a porpoise on crack on final approach. 😬

TU-154 coming from FlightSim Studio AG
Yes its a moot point at this juncture. The community that has been supporting FSS has seen several new airplane models get developed and brought to market in the last three years, while the Ejets were stays "experimental". Clearly FSS has struggled to find developers that can build a working AP for the Ejet. I'm sure its very difficult to find that kind of skillset in the marketplace, but that was the suggestion. Find those folks, finish the Ejet, then start on the next one with modelers etc. Much better way to build brand equity than promise "coming soon" for three years. Yes, saw the last post and from everything I've read in the discord, the plan is to release v1.0 next week. Btw, the last experimental release was a huge step backward and basically broke what was almost a fully working AP. I'll be interested in seeing how well the V1.0 performs.

That's exactly the point. Maybe FSS should allocate their limited budget on additional programmers that understand AP dynamics and finish an "experimental" plane that's been languishing for three years, verses spending money on 3D modelers starting a new project.

TU-154 coming from FlightSim Studio AG
Lots of current customers not so happy to see a new product launch, while the Ejet (three years in) is still not at V1 and the AP is a hot mess. At this point (especially seeing the Expo video) once the A220 is released, gotta think there will be a big migration from the Ejet to the A220.

Accurate terrain back or I'll quit the simulator hobby!
I remember thinking this was super cool and very advanced... 😄

Textron ending Baron/Bonanza production
Split V tail was a sharp looking airplane, but unfortunately it earned it's nickname "doctor killer".

Curved Monitors
caneman replied to Beagle12's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI have the 49' curved Samsung. Been using it since 2020 came out and won't ever go back (used to have three flat monitors). Game changer and well worth it.

FSLTL Traffic Models Updated
There was an October 17th update, but unsure if that was the issue. Wonder if it had something to do with FSLTL (copywrite?) Just noticed this in the comment section: Comments for this file are currently closed. This may be because the author has disabled them or Flightsim.to has done so due to violations of our Community Guidelines.

FSLTL Traffic Models Updated
Flightsim.to had a mod that downgraded textures to help frame rates. Downgraded Textures for FSLTL (FPS Booster) v1.6 for Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS It's been removed from Flightsim.to

Anyone know why this mod is suddenly "unavailable" in Flightsim.to ?

Not anytime soon, according to conversations in their discord.

Is SPAD.neXt falling out of favor or something?
Used it for several years and found SPAD less and less valuable over time. Finding working snippets for less popular hardware/software became really difficult. Programing your own takes a fair degree of study and can be highly complex. Discord help was usually "go watch the video" (which didn't help). Switched to MobiFlight and never looked back. Waaay simpler to edit and/or create your own profiles.

2020 still has its fans
Not only do I remember it well, we all thought this was amazing! Check out "Chicago" in the background. Hobby's come a long way. 😊

FSS Ejets Available for MSFS2024 SU2 Beta
No VNAV. FSS is still working on implementing a functional FMS. Airplane currently uses the (not very good) default MSFS FMS. Beta testing for the FMS via a very small group of selected participants was supposed to begin by end of July. No announcements yet as to whether that is actually going to happen. If it does occur, full rollout is still many months down the road. Given the length of time to implement an FMS (several years as noted), likely that a functioning VNAV will be still more years in the making. Possibly not happening at all. Its a great plane but without a decent working FMS, it sits on the shelf for many users.
