  1. A morse code we can hear. Seems impossible to fix in FS20
  2. I admit I do use and like REX Accuseason and give high marks for Black Square TaxiWays For textures I have both Rex and Zinertek v4.0 textures and Zinertek is better in my opinion.
  3. Both got updated again but the since Warrior - 0.3.7 the fuel selection seems to be on auto, is there a setting someone knows about to change this.
  4. In the Sim World a Work in Progress is always a good thing. Oh wait, from yesterday to today there was an update Change log v2.1.98. Also PMS mentioned that you won't need a new licence for it to work in FS24
  5. The way I see it is that the TDS is the real thing, it's geared towards real world pilots in it's operations, but within the sim it has limitations. While the PMS is geared towards the simmer. By that I mean for ex. the PMS will give you extra functions it will give you the glide path, it will show you Traffic, it will show you the radar, it will show you the wind, you have simbrief and navigraph integration, the flight plan loaded will show up in the PMS, all "geared" towards the flight simulator for ex. Both are strong products, just choose what you want.
  6. When you load the PMS goto the Setup and see if it says WTT NO or Internal. If it says NO just cycle the GPS options from the Aircraft and cycle back to the GTN and then check again in the Setup to make sure the WTT is Internal.
  7. Have to admit that I'm starting to like N4. It's more than Skypark but less than OnAir or AH2. It's a very good mix for a career add-on and you can't beat the price, jeezz
  8. Just spent 25 hrs doing flights in the Arrow II I like what they did but hey it's a trainer, anything above 5 kts of cross/wind on take off or landing is like Rodeo you just have to hang on for 8 seconds.
  9. It's more than that, it also uses the WTT. Like I said in another post, I've spent 10 years in P3D always trying to Sync the sim database, the charts and the GTN and it was a major PITA Here's the the main undeniable point of the PMS50. Now the Navigraph Hub is able to update the MSFS database with the latest cycle and the PMS50 uses that cycle. Now no matter what, when I open MSFS, Navigraph, PMS50, LNM everything is sync'd to the latest cycle guaranteed. The other thing I like with PMS is that every Airport Approach that has either and ILS or RNAV the glide path will show up in the GTN itself.
  10. After using both I would go Navigraph any day over Avilasoft, specially since Navigraph added world wide VFR but that's my opinion. Apart from that LNM should get an award for the best free add-on but doesn't the free Volanta also show you the airport.
  11. Though I'd post this here since it's an update issue. There's a red LV light that I can't seem to turn off, where it says the radio station not in compliance. Anyone know how to turn that off. - Ignore it goes away when airborne. sorry.
  12. MSFS2020 ATC is the equivalent of buying a $7,000 computer with a 3Dfx video card. I still would rather Radar Contact v4 over the default any day but FS24 is our priority and most likely still won't change. What to much?
  13. According to this not really. Only as long as it's generating revenue. I think bobcat called it back in January.
  14. The issue for most is the "10 year supported commitment from the MS team" The entire flight sim community experience no matter the sim was/is that as soon as a new version came out the previous was dropped near instant not only for the sim but for 3rd party. It's going to be difficult to "trust" in that commitment as sales and userbase drops because of FS24 and the commitment switches to the new. Now who's going to believe them when they come out and say FS24 will have a 10 year commitment. now having said that at the very start of the trailer it says "Pursue your dream of a career in aviation" now if they combine that with some sort of Airline Manager like OnAir then my anguish will be avoided 🙂
  15. I'm having flashbacks, the 737 it will most likely work no problem but the NGXu will be 2024 only and will be a whole new "improved" version of the plane. Now save this thread for sometime in 2025.
  16. They should have made it clear, if it's an add-on DLC that's one thing but a whole "New Sim" that's another thing entirely.
  17. P3D Released v1: 2010-11 - Permanent $199 v2: 2013-11 = 3 years - Permanent $199 v3: 2015-09 = 2 years 10 months Permanent $199 v4: 2017-05 = 2 years 8 months Permanent $199 v5: 2020-04 = 2 years 11 months Permanent $199
  18. My experience only but I found AAO way more complicated so I went with Spad and found it much easier, I watched about 3 vids and that was it, any button or switch I can assign to the mini. Not only for the x-touch mini but for other devices like the Honeycomb Yoke, Thrustmaster and Saitek throttle ect.. and it recognized them no problem. When I got the Black Square Caravan it took me 20-30 mins tops to copy and paste some that I had set up from the 310R I had previously set up. It also recognizes the setup for each plane automatically and the only thing I have problems is with are interior lights adjustments, I'm to lazy to assign them to rotator knobs or the slider and gave up 🙂 but basically in flight I don't use the keyboard/mouse for any of the functions. Edit: this is what I have problems with, I'll try again.
  19. Spad + XTouch Mini here and not going back. Whenever I see a MSFS YT vid with the title "Real Pilot" and see them struggling with the mouse to change heading or frequencies it makes me cringe and shake my head.
  20. which will be full price, don't laugh that's what happened.
  21. Contrary to the flow here but I try to avoid them. There are some cons to use them. 1- Some have started to "impose" a log in to their site to use them even after you paid for the product. Any product that imposes added telemetry is not worth having, so I'm not a fan, I'll just leave that there. 2- Most of them add some sort of animation like vehicles or people walking ect.. which can impact FPS more than you think. 3- If ever there are changes to the airport like adding or removing runways, parking, ramps ect... the SIM and the NAV data will change but not the airport. It's rare but does/can happen. Just my opinion.
  22. I don't want to bore anyone and I'm just writing this as per my experience, I don't think the issue is with LNM because this has and does happen with other flight planners. In my humble opinion whenever MSFS sees custom waypoints, departures or arrivals, there's a good chance it will go berserk but not all the time. This happens to me I would say 1 out of every 3 or 4 flights. So I opened your original flight plan and removed the custom waypoint and MSFS still goes berserk. So I took out the waypoint and the approach, so all I had left was "NZWR DCT SAMVO DCT NOMAP DCT HOOKS DCT MASDA DCT ATHNE DCT UKDAS DCT NZRO" Even then MSFS still went berserk by inputting a departure and arrival. So I took out the departure and arrival I was able to load it into MSFS and once in there on the pms50 I created a similar waypoint and added the approach and everything from then on was fine. So until MSFS fixes this "anomaly" what I do is create the flight plan in LNM without any procedures just the included Victor airways and included waypoints if need be, I then load that into MSFS but make sure there are no departures, arrivals or approaches, load the flight and then go into the pms50 and then add included or created waypoints and the approach. Edit: But just to add that once I load the plan into MSGS I then go back to LNM and load the proper departure, approach to make it easier to select in the GTN
