    @Putannna said in MSFS 2020 & 2024 Needs a Super VC 10: maybe together we can get their attention! You've already got our attention - see my replies above. However, just for the record, here are the main discussion points on Project VC10 for MSFS2024: Pros There is a real one at Cosford that can be accessed by developers Just Flight has prior knowledge and data on many of the more complex systems in this arcraft which could serve to shorten the development time. Just Flight has previously done Jetliner and Pro versions of this aircraft series for FSX, P3D and X-Plane. Cons Producing a sound set to take advantage of current game technology might be a problem Very limited appeal outside the UK. To maintain our quality reputation - as per the 146, Vulcan, RJ, F28 etc - it would need to be built from scratch. Even with our experience on previous versions, this is a 2-3 year project with a very significant development bill. Commercially, based on our experience with VC10 Jetliner and VC10 Professional for FSX, P3D and X-Plane, the meagre sales returns would never be enough to warrant the cost and time involved. Here at Just Flight we have a huge amount of enthusiasm for older aircraft and we would jump at the chance of doing another VC10. However, we also need to accept that we are not working for a lifestyle/hobby business or a freeware co-op and we do have to consider the ROI of every project we undertake. We're currently working on our Tornado and we also have plans for another British classic (subject to a successful ROI discussion) but, as far as the VC10 goes, we are unlikely to ever revisit that one. One thing to add - if any other developer fancied doing a VC10 for MSFS2024 we would always be open to licensing our source code at reasonable cost. Please form an orderly queue....

    After about 50 hours of flying the Starship, I've received my first failure. And it was an interesting one. Holding at the holding point for RWY 26 in Barrow, Alaska and about to embark on a North to South voyage that ultimately takes me to Ushuaia, I received Left and Right Forward Boot Fail messages after performing the surface de-ice tests. Temperature was -2°C and every so often I would see one snowflake. No knowing exactly what the issue was, I carried on. Telling myself that in any case, as it is now, I wouldn't need ice protection. Although we're under an overcast, I know it is very thin. After all test complete and on the active, sleet started. I made a command decision and pushed the power levers up. As expected, by 3.000 feet we broke out into the clear. Once at cruise, I started consulting the manuals (and the Active Failures Page) and deduced a R FWD WING BOOT INTEG failure. In other words, probably a boot leak. (Is that correct that this is a boot leak?) I first consulted the abnormal checklist. Nothing there. So, then I switched to the MMEL to see what this failure could fall under. Surface de-icing is covered as a whole under MEL 30-8. Category C, 1 installed, 0 required as long as flight is not flown or planned into known or forecast icing conditions. A quick glance over to Ketchikan weather reveals 5 SM in light rain and mist, broken at 600 and overcast at 1600. However, the temperature is 11°C before sunrise. So, we press on. I've got 10 calendar days to fix this baby. By then I should be down in California. A quick stop in Textron Aviation Services in Sacramento, CA might be in order. What an amazing airplane, and what an experience to fly an airplane that's alive Two questions: If the right wing boot is leaking and I perform a manual boot inflate, shouldn't the pressure of the leaking boot drop more than the other? *(See attached picture)*This way a leaking boot can be diagnosed without consulting the failures tab. Cruising at FL350 in -50°C OAT's, I would expect some contrail. However, there isn't any. Can these two be looked at for any upcoming updates?

    Is it possible to show upcoming neutral sections on the mini HUD when driving along the West Coast Main Line, particularly around the Shap section? Having this information visible in advance could help drivers prepare more easily and manage power changes more smoothly during gameplay. Tks

    @ch0llis another big thanks to you. It looks a lot better now with those bits ironed out. I'm grateful for your efforts.
