Does VNAV work for departures in the Garmin g3000? I've been flying general aviation recently such as the TBM 930 and vnav works fine with arrivals but some of my SIDS i fly out of have altitude restrictions on them and I click the vnav button and enter the final restricted altitude after takeoff and it doesn't climb or meet any of the restricted waypoints, am I doing something wrong or does VNAV in the g3000 only works for arrivals?

My last actual salty sim 74 flight was a long haul from Vegas to Frankfurt and when I land I usually have it at flaps 30 and the speed depends on the autofactors from simbrief but it's usually anywhere from 150kts to 155kts I believe

When initiating the flare at 30ft. Do you slighty pull back on the joystick or use a bit more pressure. This might depend on joystick sensitivity obviously. I've noticed as I pull back the plane will continue to fall hard to the ground at times and slam. Even with a decent approach on the runway. It's like the weight of the plane just comes down hard, i'm having a hard time explaining it haha.

Anyone else genuinely struggle to land this plane smooth recently? I haven't flown it really in awhile since the Fenix A321 and PMDG 777 came out but I've noticed my approaches are fine but the landing it's self can be rather difficult. at the moment I only use a fly by wire joystick by thrustmaster and i'm either coming down too hard and not having enough time to flare or i'm gently flaring the plane and floating down the runway. at the moment I keep AT on during landings if that means anything. Does anyone here have any good tips on how to properly land the 747-8? preferable when to flare etc I'd like my landings to be below 200FPM and close to 1g as possible. I don't seem to have these landing difficulties with any other big aircraft, only the 74. Thanks.
