Ridiculous "to you". I think it's ridiculous that that people pay $$$ for GSX or Navigraph Charts, but I'd always qualify that as being only in my opinion. I know it doesn't represent the majority. Odd thing to feel so strongly about. If it doesn't appeal, walk past.. rather than posting 4 posts about how much you hate it. Oops, just realized, you'd declared the conversation as OVER! So sorry! 😄

100% agree.

This has been around on the backburner for a couple of years. He pushes it in 'fits and starts' with lots of videos, then deletes them and disappears for months. He made crazy claims on an early video, then posted a demo, that could best be described as AI slop. No different to the "ATC programs" you find for free on FS.TO that an over-enthused user has created in 4 minutes using Gemini. He deleted a lot of early vids. It looks like he is trying to emulate SI's journey, but is just one guy and is about 24 years behind in man hours 😄

Slow news day?

I'm going to revise my choices:- Black Square Commander 114 Black Square Aero Commander series (TP & Piston) A2A Legacy

8 inches wider than a Bonanza!

Are those military jet pics interspliced into that update a mistake on JF's part? I was struggling to see the link between him talking about the Aero Commanders and those pics of a military jet?! 😄

You can keep your Synaptic A220.... THIS is what I am desperately awaiting! 😎 I did my complex endorsement in the 112 and most of my IR rating in the 114, back in the PPL days. These wide, comfortable planes are in my blood!

👍 VNAV aside, did you not climb in FLC/IAS mode? Where the speed could be set higher to prevent an uncomfortable climb rate, but while still providing stall protection? You're right, 'never' is rarely the appropriate word in aviation. However, some of the posts here read as though VS and VNAV are the only options. I'm pretty sure every major airline SOP would have pilots using airspeed-based modes in the climb. I don't think I've ever seen a real-world airliner (or even large GA) on YouTube vids (or in real life) climbing out using VS. It is however something we (simmers) used to do in FS9/FSX, as there was no native FLC/IAS mode until MSFS 😄 I'm not challenging your statement, or experience, and 'never' was too extreme, but the vast, vast majority of airliner or large GA aircraft use airspeed-based FD/AP modes to climb. Exceptions would also include aircraft with older avionics that do not have a FLC/IAS mode (eg. old Sperry units but in GA also the King 140/150/225 and STEC units)/

You would never use VS for climb in any airliner. FLC / IAS mode is always used (or VNAV which essentially uses FLC) as it provides speed protection against stall. VS is used for descent.

I've always been happy with the hand-crafted / included rendition. I was surprised there was an Inibuilds addon alternative.

Easily done - the intentions aren't the clearest! 😄 I'm not sure if I responded correctly. Ie. does it mean addons you already have, that you'd keep until 2028, or addons you don't have, that you'd buy until 2028. The reference to '2028' is hard to place, and perhaps a little tenuous!

Lovely job Nandengo!

I think this has happened once before and Alex had to reset something and it was fine again.
