Any thoughts on the Carenado PC12? The review rating is 3.5 stars on the Marketplace. Is it possible to read the reviews, when I click on it, it gives me a chart of the ratings, but no way to access the reviews? Thanks!

I flew the MU 2 from Flysimware in FSX The Ini Builds version has a really outdated navigational system. Is there anyway to set the Altitude Hold other than monitoring the altitude in a descent / climb and the hitting the altitude hold button? I wonder if there is a replacement panel? Thanks

yesterday: Since the last MSFS 2020 /Windows 11 updates, I notice the sound dropping out every 10-30 seconds, for just a split second. Kind of like a stutter. I also updated the latest NVIDIA drivers. My FPS is about 50. Any ideas? Thanks!

A long while ago, for nearly 10 years, I used to travel once a year from Columbus (OH) to Washington D.C. / Maryland (a distance of over 400 miles) to visit friends and family, around the Holiday season. So, the route and its landmarks got imprinted in my memory. Basically, I would take I-70 eastward, crossing into Pennsylvania just before Pittsburgh, and then, at New Stanton, I-76 would merge with I-70 to form the PA Turnpike. The Turnpike runs lengthwise across PA, between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. I would get off the Turnpike at Breezewood, a most curious (and very congested) motorist-service oriented town, marked by a large Rest Area (and Truck Stop). My passenger car would be dwarfed and (unnervingly) surrounded by gigantic 18-Wheelers sauntering around (with likely hungry Truckers on board...🙂...) ...There, at Breezewood, I would part company with I-76 (with a touch of regret...🙂...), and then head southeast on I-70 towards Hagerstown, across the PA/MD states line, to be finally on the homestretch to Washington D.C. Though PA is known for the Allegheny Mountain Range, it is located further east, so what I recall most, from this roadway segment in PA, are the picturesque rolling-hills and meadows (see e.g., shots #6, #7), contributing to a most enjoyable driving experience, especially when the landscape is bristling with the vibrant Fall colors. For my post, here, I have created a FlightPlan from Pittsburgh International (KPITT) to Hagerstown Regional (KHGR), over a distance of ~175 miles, with (enroute) waypoints inserted for (New Stanton, Somerset, and Breezewood). As I've turned south from Pittsburgh, I first overfly the New Stanton Arnold Palmer Regional Airport (shot #4). My next waypoint, the town of Somerset, is of (historical) significance, because of the ill-fated Flight 93, that was forced down into the Pennsylvania meadows ~15 miles northeast of this town. During one of my trips, I recall seeing, for the first time, the new landmark, (a highway-sign) on the Turnpike, pointing to the Flight 93 National Memorial, which I had a chance to visit. Hope you enjoys these (12) pictures, from the sky, symbolically mnemonic of my (bygone) road trips, across (central) Pennsylvania, from Pittsburgh (PA) to Hagerstown (MD). The MSFS (default) scenery indeed does a good job to replicate the general topographic features and the terrain of this region... (though devoid of high mountains...🙂...I've fond memories of travelling on these relatively flat but beautiful lands...) ... Thanks for viewing.

What an impressive plane, flies great the interior is fully modeled and accessible from the cockpit view. Windows/Port Holes open across the entire plane, animations are great etc.

I love flying the classics! thought Id share part of my collection of vintage aircraft.

I am trying to find a profile or video that configures the OBS Video recording settings for MSFS 2020 (optimal settings). I found one awhile back, but it is not coming up on the searches on YouTube. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Do you enable AI traffic in the sim itself, or do you install a third party addon? Also, what is FPS hit using AI? Thanks!

Is there an issue with the logbook? When I complete my flight it appears to display the same flight from July 1st. viewing the logbook doesn’t look right at all! thanks!

Has anybody done Cockpit Sharing with apps like Your Controls? I think it only supports MSFS 2020 stock aircraft. MS Game Pass support was logged on to my system via their remote app. He did some updates to GamePass and I launched MSFS 2020 and he was able to view my flight in real time. No lag. Thanks!

I am looking for a good touring aircraft C172. Piper Warrior, etc. GNS 530. Pretty simple… I just purchased Anyone Fly from Flight1 Payware /Stock. Thanks!

I have watched some videos on the ATR FMS. Just wondering if there is there a good FMS trainer application similar to what Garmin did for the GTN 750? I did some searching. There was one company that had a reasonably priced training app, but it was primarily for the A380 or jet A/C. Thanks!

I just purchased the ATR and was wondering if there is away to load the MSFS 2020 flight plan to the FMS from the Nav Log or from a saved flight plan file I vaguely remember the Flight 1 ATR FMS had a load option. Thank you!

Is anyone having a problem downloading from the Marketplace via Content Manager? It seems to be stuck in PENDING?? Thanks

I am having issues running the Flight 1 Agent to download my purchased files. It gives me an Invalid Product Configuration error. I opened a ticket with F1 and they think it is security related. I don't even know how to troubleshoot. I can download from SimMarket just fine. Anybody else having this issue? Thanks!

Just checking to see if there are any new updates to MSFS 2020. I have been having issues with the Flight 1 agent downloading files. it seems like the check for updates runs way too fast. Thanks!

I am trying to setup a joystick button for push to talk PTT… In the Set mode, I select the CH Products Yoke from the drop-down. For the joystick button PTT, it is detecting the button and I save it. But when I go to test it in the grammar section, when I press and hold the button, it doesn’t trigger the PTT. I went ahead and purchased the RTM version of FSUIPC7. I like to support Pete and John. In the manual, it states that you do this via FSUIPC. I had a problem at one time doing this on a networked machine due to Microsoft Security policy. Thanks in advance for the help!

I am looking for a flight planning application. I used SimBrief. But now they are owned by Navigraph, it is kind of pricey. The quality is great, but Pricey. I am using MSFS 2020 w/ PILOT2ATC. The NavData that comes with PILOT2ATC should be good for now. I believe I can save the MSFS flight plan and then load it into PILOT2ATC. SimBrief is great but I can’t justify the cost at this time. Thanks!

I have PILOT2ATC, which is great, but I was wondering if there was a smaller footprint ATC add-on that would be able to run on my flight sim PC without a lot of overhead, so I don’t have to run on a network machine. Thanks!

When I was flying, I had ATC audio communications earlier in the flight but a few minutes later I am not hearing the traffic calls?? Just the text in the ATC window. I can hear the responses from the CoPilot. Just not any other audio. Any Ideas? Thanks!

After working out issues with my CH Products pedals, and getting other things stabilized, I was able to fly an IFR flight from PADQ to PANC. I used the IFR low altitude flight plan. When I got to the approach following ATC, the controller brought me down to 2100 ft. The last instruction was climb and maintain 5300 ft. Nothing afterwards. I did have this occasionally happen in FSX. Back to PILOT2ATC.
