Last couple of updates for the PMDG 737 line have been bug fixes for the UFT/EFB.

Blacksquare TBM 850 gets my vote

- PT-6 Engine simulation - Flightmodel, specifically how floaty it is. -
What happened to the Dodosim Bell 206 II?
snapshot21 replied to Kalnon's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
It probably went the way of the dodo. Sorry ill show myself the way out now. -
End of October is looking pretty good.
snapshot21 replied to Wise87's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I would not get my hopes up for the fenix Block 2. Dev said October is still the target but not a hard deadline and it will change if they decide it is still not at the quality they want. Just manage expectations and it will be a pleasant surprise when they do deliver 😄 -
Blacksquare TBM 850 released
snapshot21 replied to Egbert Drenth's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Love the changes with the 1.1 update. The takeoff roll feels much better using the recommended takeoff trim settings. A couple of issues noticed during first flight though: - Why is the NG rising during climb to cruise level? NG should remain constant due to the PT-6 being an NG Governed engine. - Pressing the TOGA button still does not give a TO pitch guidance. -

Blacksquare TBM 850 released
snapshot21 replied to Egbert Drenth's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Also regarding the takeoff trim setting. Setting the rudder trim to the recommended takeoff range made for a very sketchy takeoff roll. The flightmodel seems to not have enough yaw tendency to the left when on takeoff power. -
Blacksquare TBM 850 released
snapshot21 replied to Egbert Drenth's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
First flight so far, great plane but it really needs an improvement in the PT6 Simulation. 1. Taxi Range is unusable, it needs too much throttle to break away and start rolling forward. Even Taxi range should be enough to taxi as that is the purpose. 2. Noticed not much TRQ decrease during climb to cruise level. Im really glad to finally have an analog TBM so I hope the PT6 simulation gets improved and it will then be the perfect plane 😄 -
Captain Sim Is Back! 717

What in the.... I thought I woke up in a parallel universe where McDonnell-Douglas merged with Airbus instead of Boeing. -
No need to worry, the Majestic Q400 is one of the best planes in P3D in terms of Performance (FPS)
-
My reason for having P3Dv5 still in my rotation is because it still provides me the best and most stable airliner experience among the 3 desktop flightsims. The PMDG 777 and 747 is still not yet in MSFS and also the FSLabs A320 family is still unmatched so far. There is also the Majestic Q400 that I keep coming back to. On the GA side, P3D has the entire A2A fleet which i find more immersive than most MSFS GA planes so far (This will change when the A2A comanche releases for MSFS). Also I cannot bring myself to uninstall P3D, because of the upcoming FSLabs Concorde which I have been waiting on for a longtime.

You can even go full flaps, throttle to flight idle, and it can sustain level flight during cruise and save fuel 🤣

Steam Gauge Overhaul - Analog King Air out now
snapshot21 replied to turbomax's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Same here with the PMS50. Not switching automatically. -
516.93 is mentioned as a Studio Driver. I think we have to wait for the Game-Ready driver.

Any 757's or 767's in our near future?
snapshot21 replied to lehbird's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
PMDG has been teasing development of a 757. Probably after they port their entire product line though. So maybe looking at 2-3 years away. -
FS2Crew Weekend Update - 18 June 2022!
snapshot21 replied to byork's topic in FS2CREW: GENERAL FORUM
Hi @byork, Enjoying using Pushback Express so far, really useful utility. But in the 1:33 mark of your video, I cant get my pushback menu to appear like that inside the FS2Crew Command Center menu, I always have to use the external window that opens in the desktop to setup and start the pushback. Is there an option I can change to make it appear like in your video? Thanks! -
You have to select APP in order to arm the FINAL APP mode and for it to follow the glidepath down. Do it before the FAP which is BO708 in that approach.

FSLabs and Fenix Sim Airbus A320's.
snapshot21 replied to haseen's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
In addition to this, I'm finding some complex procedures that the Fenix fails to draw correctly in the ND and fly correctly. Hopefully this can be improved with feedback from general users. Texturing and Modelling though, it is heads and shoulders above the FSLabs. It just loses out on the Flight model like you mentioned. With further refinements, im sure it can surpass FSLabs, but not yet at this point. -
FENIX NDA lifted at 1200Z!!!!!!!!!
snapshot21 replied to captain420's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Not exactly, they said the testing of the RC is expected to be a day or two. But the release itself is TBD. Aamir said they will announce in advance if they are confident in a release date and time. -
Leonardo Maddog to be released 30 April!
snapshot21 replied to ark4diusz's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
That last panel state is present in the P3D version. Turnaround mode. Unfortunately it is not yet implemented in the MSFS version, but it will be in a later update 🙂 -
Fenix A320 cost speculations
snapshot21 replied to dolbinau's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Up to $140 is acceptable in my opinion, similar price to the FSLabs A320X. Below $100 would be excellent though 😄 -
Can I use PDC/CPDLC on VATSIM with no voice
snapshot21 replied to captain420's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I know of a couple of simmers who have speech problems who are able to fly on Vatsim because of the Text only feature. Removing it will only alienate and be unfair for simmers like them. It can also be an important step while learning vatsim because new users might lack the confidence to immediately go to voice transmission. I started the same way until I gained the confidence to actually speak to ATC using the mic. If you really want an all voice ATC network, then Pilotedge is available anyway. -
CaptainSim 764-400ER released
snapshot21 replied to ark4diusz's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
That is hilarious 😄 On some of the screenshots, it still says "BOEING 777" under the center display 😄 talk about low effort/laziness 🤣
