A2A Comanche & AccuSim reveal/deep-dive video!
RobF2 replied to lwt1971's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Looks impressive. Can't wait.... -
BlackSquare Bonanza - very good!

Longer A2A faffs about the more competitive the GA market is getting. Good thing for simmers though 🙂 -
MSFS Addons Linkers - starting websites

Thanks Bad_T, that's brilliant. I did try command line as malaromane suggested without success, but the batch file cunning plan sounds like the way to go 🙂 -
I was wondering about using Addon LInker to also fire up Simbrief and Chartfox. Is it possible to do that by calling Chrome and some extra parameters for the URL perhaps? Does anyone have it working?

BBJ (PMDG 737)
-
While catching up on the Virtual 737 "virtual 737 type course" on FB (being run by Ben Watts and Mentour Pilot, came across reference to some excellent 737 educational videos by Chris Brady (author of the excellent publication "The Boeing 737 Technical Guide". For those also having a blast "flying" the PMDG 737 BBJ around the world, hope you'll also find this 90mins Youtube video fascinating. Also sorts of interesting info, like: 737 winglets were first designed for the BBJ ! (and not for the reason you might expect 🙂 ) Higher V1 (MCG) speed because of the shorter fuselage Why the BBJ 700 has 737-800 flap speeds (they typically use the 800's stronger wing) BBJs typically have a MIN takeoff weight (otherwise V1 might be less than V1 (MCG) ) CG info Aux fuel info More info on antennae and the avionics bay than you ever thought to ask And all sorts of other amazing info Amazing aircraft.....

First Look at New Zealand update

So perhaps we should uninstall Orbx for time being, is way I read it? -
Just a thank you for aviaServer and the PMDG737 CDU and Overhead. Although I first played with Remote CDU on P3D many years ago, however available time (and a teenage daughter constantly pinching my iPad 🙂) limited how much it was used. Now with a much larger phone, I find the leftt 737 CDU displays wonderful just on my Android phone, leaving the tablet for the overhead. What I didn't expect is how much I'd learn about FMC programming now that its far less onerous to enter and change parameters and screens. This has really added to immersion and realsm in my 737 simming. Now anytime a knowledgeable Youtube like 737NG Driver does something on his CDU its so easy to go in and mimick/learn new features. Many thanks aviaSoft for the hard work and great value for money 🙂

You're going to be shocked at the general MSFS environment and perormance, if haven't tried before. As others have said, currently probably no study level aircraft quite at P3D FSL level, but.......for the slight compromises with Fenix, FBW, etc you have a much more realistic airport environment and ground + sky textures environment and noticeably faster frame rates. At risk of starting a PC/Mac war, also consider PMDG 737 - quite an amazaing and solid implementation now in MSFS.

No probs here starting aviaServer from Addon LInker. (C:\Program Files (x86)\aviaServer\aviaServer.exe) Have 7 or 8 other things that happily start every time too (LittleNavMap, TrackIR, etc)

Another lump of coal: PMDG Update [24DEC22]
RobF2 replied to Keirtt's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I've got a 45" EFB called Google, Simbrief, LIttlenavmap and Pilot2ATC. Having a ball with the 737-700 and BBJ flying all over the place. Get on with enjoying the most amazing flight sim 737 ever. Doesn't really both me if I'm saving a few FPS not having EFB in the cockpit view and having to squint at it through my glasses. 🙂
