146 Professional

Hi Fori,

There is some confusion here. Your Pitot heater isn't frozen.

The AIR LO TEMP annunciator means the temperature in the wing and tail anti/de-ice air supply ducts is low. This is usually because of insufficient air-flow.

In your picture your ENG AIR supply switches are off - the APU air is not sufficient for ice protection.

It is usually not required to run the inner-wing de-ice at the same time as the outer wing/tail anti-ice. This is because in the decent through icing conditions the engine air flow is usually not sufficient at lower powers.

When flaps are extended beyond flaps 18 then you would utilize the de-ice, along with use of engine air. Speedbrake is handy in this case for keeping engine speeds up sufficient to provide sufficient bleed-air flow.

Just many of the plates you have to spin/juggle flying a 146/RJ!

Today I did not get callouts when the localizer and glideslope were captured. Under what circumstances can this happen?

@tommchowat
Beautiful, thank you so much!

@mhaviate Thank you! I had a fire handle pulled out on the 146 and couldn't get it back in.

@martyn Thanks for explaining. Would it be possible to consider amending the logic to accept the OFP values in effect as a final loadsheet unless they would exceed airframe maxima?

Not a showstopper but I do like things tidy :-)

(Needless to say eagerly waiting news on the RJ, -300 and 747)

Thanks for the answer.

In the meantime, I have actually found my error: AC Pump "Off". Again a problem, which is not a problem at all. Sorry! :/

That with the TMS will then probably be a bug. Good to know that the lower limit is 600c. However, the error described above has also only occurred once so far. I had only wondered. :)

@johan217 Thanks a lot!!

I have found the solution. After much testing FSUIPC does control the degree of nose wheel steering and allows you to alter the maximum speed that nose wheel steering will operate. So by setting the Max Steering Speed in FSUIPC to 60 kts the degree of steering gradually diminishes as the airspeed increases. I have also used FSUIPC to reduce the rudder sensitively and this seems to produce a much better and more controllable response. Like many of these settings it does seem to take some tweaking to produce the most satisfactory result. So I can recommend FSUIPC if anyone is thinking of purchasing it.

@mhaviate
I finally found the solution! It was a logitech problem. Must edit the registry.

@mhaviate I was able to find a fix for this myself.

In windows VR settings activate VR by key press rather than putting headset on. Assign a joystick key to activate VR in MSFS. Run MSFS in windowed mode. I keep it small to reduce burden on the system. Leave mouse pointer somewhere on the windowed MSFS and not pointed at the desktop. Activate VR. (MSFS will still be visible on desktop monitor with mouse pointer in the scene)

Now the mouse and the VR controllers will be able to select things. If MSFS is minimized to the task bar, as normally happens when putting on the headset, then the mouse and controllers will not work.

Is it possible you’re flying to fast for the turn, ie beyond the airframe capability.

@toozin Thank you!:thumbs_up_medium-light_skin_tone:

A simbrief flightplan which won't load into EFB has happened to me already couple of times too. I guess it is due to some missing info (like METAR, SID, STAR).
Not a big problem, only the ZFW and Fuel has to be inserted manually.

Just tried a different keybind for set ELT. Worked. Thanks guys. Must've been something to do with the keybind I had set.
