    So I guess I need to find out how to do that.

    @DangerZoneDmo said in Excessive leaning does not damage the engines?: @bocian I honestly have no idea what a ferry pilot would do in terms of leaning, but I assume that they'd likely run quite lean of peak, in addition to using ferry tanks. There is a point of diminishing returns where, if you lose too much speed over a long distance, it will actually cost you more fuel as the time it takes is much longer. I'm gonna look into it, as I'm interested now. I'm sure there are math people out there that can calculate that all out, but I'm not one of them. I've spent quite some time with the math in the sim. There, it's a pretty obvious correlation: Lean as much as possible for maximum range: [image: 1822b6db-4191-4e0a-9745-cb9acd274143.png] Also, if you want a great video on leaning in general, check out this one by Martin Pauly: Lean of peak engine operation Thanks for that link, this video helped my understanding a ton and basically answers my initial question: The damage model works correct, heavy leaning does no harm to the engine. Will look deeper into the simulated spread of the cylinders though, maybe there's still something to nitpick if one of them runs in the "red zone" when lean of peak.

    Not a massive one, just something for the next update if possible. The included VMR for Emirates has the A35K model matched to the 77W if you guys weren't already aware, updated myself easy enough.

    Hi, Since the SU4 update, the RH radio panel won't switch on in either PC or Xbox X. The ILS/VOR and TACAN are both working so I'm wondering if it's more to do with the displays not working or being stuck at minimum brightness. I've tried this with all panel states and starting on the runway (I assume that forces the 'Ready for Takeoff' panel state anyway). Thanks, Neil.

    If any lost soul find this post and has the same problem, here my solution to this: Instruction 1.Go to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\justflight-aircraft-pa28-turboarrow\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_TurboArrow_III 2. Find the flight_model.cfg 3. Make a backup copy - just in case 4. Open the flight_model.cfg and modify it like in the attached picture. [image: f5d35ed8-07f5-468f-bb7e-4012194b98c1.png] 5. Save the file and restart MSFS 2020 Why I did this As described I felt the trim tab was way to dominant and the elevator to weak - making slow flight without trimming not possible, but I guess you should also be able to do slow flight without trimming just by adjustment to the elevator (trim is a secondary control surface to me and should just assist). What this change does This basically swaps the effect on lift between the trim tab an the elevator, giving the elevator the lifting force it should have while lowering down the effect of trim to really just have an assisting (trimming) effect. Disclaimer This change comes without warrenty from me or endorsement by the devs, its just my observation that I want to share with others for the sake that it might help somebody. Any changes you do are at your own risk.

    @sk0941 +FMS/Garmin-y retrofits. But true classics will keep flying one way or another, and in MSFS, its quite easier if one wants to go old school. Already can fly US like it's 1958 with all the original VORs, NDBs, etc from that era. You can also go all celnav (celestial navigation) and fly your DC-6 or Connie that way, which is how they did it before gyroscope INS systems became a thing. https://flightsim.to/file/71888/golden-age-of-air-travel-u-s-navaids-as-of-1958 https://flightsim.to/file/17738/celnav-for-msfs-celestial-navigation-sextant The Wing42 B247 included old AN type radio beacons globally for navigation (where they existed at the time, which was limited coverage). The mods and community stuff will expand with time.

    after a lot of hassle, it was necessary to delete "wbsim-aircraft-c172sp-classic-PMS530-patch" so that all the commands were operational. It's not easy to get back on the bandwagon after a break of several months.

    The taxiways you have listed match up correctly with the Navigraph charts on our end, so this may be an installation issue or some sort of conflict with another mod that is preventing the scenery from displaying correctly. If you could kindly open a ticket with Just Flight support at the following link we will be able to help troubleshoot that with you: https://www.justflight.com/support Mark - Just Flight

    @gjereza Any GA aircraft models can be added to the FS Traffic fleet by adding the "Title=" entry from the aircraft.cfg into the respective livery field on the "Liveries" page of the Traffic Control Centre app, and then flights can be added for that aircraft on the "Schedules Manager" page. It is important to note that any aircraft added to the FS Traffic fleet must be fully MSFS compatible and preferably be a model that is optimised to be used as AI traffic. The FS Traffic manual can be downloaded via the following link if you would like to read more about this process: https://downloads.justflight.com/products/JFF003616/FSTraffic_MSFS_manual.pdf Mark - Just Flight

    Yes, we have implemented some Autopilot controls on the Tomahawk's EFB that can be used for basic autopilot modes such as Heading Hold, Nav Mode, and Altitude Hold. These will also be able to be triggered using control assignments. Mark - Just Flight
