Airspeed / Mach indicator. May I suggest the option to use the Mach/ISA rather than the current CSI. The former is far easier to read.

It is something that we have considered, however, it is not something that is currently planned or being worked on.

TDS dropped their most recent version of the 650 and 750Xi which now have direct linkage with the G3X touch. We just need ya'll to update the panel.cfg files to reflect the new integration and release it as an avail option in the EFB. That's all we need.

Hello,

I am the creator of the Golden Age of Air Travel 1958 navaids package referenced above.

I find the topic of having historically correct navaids very much relevant for old aircraft (be it from 50s, 60s... or 90s). So I am happy to see JustFlight is aware 👍

My 2 cents...

Data
Data are there but in very different formats (paper charts, lists, tables), not georeferenced and from different time periods. You want to have reliable data covering all navaids from one cut off date. Not easy to find. And then there's gaps in data like missing ranges etc.

Workload
It was a lot of work. A lot. It is not only about having a source but actually it was a challenge to get it into the sim. If you are interested about the workflow, check the thread here:

Commercial potential
It is just not there.
I got a few very positive and heartwarming feedbacks but the package has got only some 160 downloads from fs.to (no updates yet so these are pretty much unique downloads).

So such a project is clearly a niche within a niche.

Other considerations
Navaids is just a part of the full picture. Such a scenery package should also contain period correct enroute planning charts (VFR and IFR), approach charts and for 1960s+ periods also SIDs and STARs in order to be able to replicate the flights in their full glory.

Many runways are gone as are some airports... etc.

My take
I would buy such navaids sceneries in a heartbeat. If I turn it the other way around, I will probably think twice before I get a 1970s or 1980s aircraft because I think without putting them into their historically correct context it makes little sense (to me) to fly them.

In the end, I made the 1958 navaids scenery because I wanted to fly the DC-6 as it was meant to be flown 😀

Correction of error. Blue Pullman sets are Class 251/261.

@Mark thank you so much!

With regards to the EFB 'home' button issue on Xbox, please see our post here: https://community.justflight.com/post/27883

With regards to the nose wheel steering issue on Xbox, please see our post here for a temporary workaround: https://community.justflight.com/post/27881

With regards to the doors, we aren't aware of an issue with the doors in the latest version of the 146 on Xbox. Note, that the AIRSTAIRS do require yellow system hydraulic pressure to retract and the FWD PAX door cannot be closed unless the airstairs are retracted. The MAIN CARGO door requires yellow system hydraulic pressure to open/close. The yellow hydraulic system can be pressurised when on the ground by switching on the AC Pump on the overhead panel.

With regards to the weather radar being disabled on Xbox this is intentional, please see our post here: https://community.justflight.com/post/27806

The 'Modern' FMS option being blank is a known issue with v0.2.0 build on Xbox and should be fixed in the next update which has already been uploaded to the Marketplace. The release timeframe is in the hands of the marketplace team, but we hope the release should be this Thursday during the next marketplace update. In the mean time, the 'Classic' FMS option remains available via the EFB.

Wrong group...lol. You can turn them on in the EFB settings.

How can it do that?

I’m into historical regional aircraft and I will tell you Air Wisconsin flew these in the US

@celti There are lots of aircraft we would like to develop and we'd be lying if we said we had never considered any of the aircraft you have listed. The difficulty we always face from a commercial perspective is, how popular are these aircraft types are outside of their country of manufacture? For instance, how many people outside of France have ever seen a Mercure in person, or even have ever heard of one? If people aren't aware of the real aircraft's existence, it's not likely to be as successful commercially as a more well-known type.

Never say never on any of these though, we are always in the market for niche, quirky airliners ;)

@derek Well thanks anyway. I did a reboot. And If you get the right speed for other site but not from one site, well who knows! I tried some download file on the internet to test download speed and no issue. So not really a big problem as I don't have to fly these plane now anyway! I have plenty to use. I just wanted to let you know this issue.
Have a great day!!

@melon
I agree. I use Addons Linker, and I want to keep my Community folder empty of everything except the links Linker puts there.
