146 Professional

Hi, can anybody enlighten me as to how to use the spread sheet (Fig. 1 and p 260) in the TMS section, because i don´t understand the example given in the manual on how to calculate it. Since there are no performance charts to obtain the Flex temp let´s say, for the purpose of understanding the calculation, we go with 40° So, let´s say we are in EGNM, wich has an elevation of 700 ft, Tamb is 1° and i want to go with a flex temp of 40.

Do you by any chance install the latest update a few days ago to the Horizon Simulations 787-9? I heard their update interfered with the BAe-146 (and a few other planes). Buy they seemed to have resolved the issue with a patch today.

@Mark I confirm "Auto Cabin Crew" is enabled in EFB. It might be helpful if the right cabin doors were opened automatically too during boarding, allowing the catering to be brought.

Thank you Mark. You certainly have helped me out here. First of all, the FlightPlans folder. The location was the problem. The SimBrief Downloader stated path to the FlightPlans folder was wrong. It was headed out to the LocalCache/Packages/Community/justflight-aircraft-146/..., instead of the LocalState. I'm not sure how that happened. I have a suspicion it was a default path because I don't recall entering the path in the SimBrief Downloader. I've now changed it to the correct path and flight plans are now showing up in the UNS-1. Incidentally, you have the correct Microsoft store version path to the FlightPlans folder quoted in the UNS-1 FMS Ops Manual at page 22. I have now downloaded "2b" and get the option to uninstall. All's well now. Thank you again for your help. Bruce R

Ahh okay... Thanks for the fast anser This was new in the 2.0. Amazing the little this all little features... The Immersion of the 146 is amazing

@tgp I've just been reading the FCOM to refresh my memory and VS mode should be disengaged when the pitch switch on the pedestal is moved. The aircraft will then enter PITCH mode and the aircraft's pitch can be controlled via a pitch switch (or MSFS control assignments). It looks like this is correctly simulated when actioning the pitch switch with the mouse, but not when using the control assignments. I've logged that on our internal bugs tracker to investigate further. In the real aircraft, if you were climbing in VS mode, you would use the autopilot's SYNC facility to decouple the autopilot, adjust the aircraft's vertical speed manually, and then release the SYNC mode at the new vertical speed and the aircraft will continue to climb at that new vertical speed. The VS mode itself is a simple "VS HOLD" type mode and just holds the vertical speed that it was engaged at, so the vertical speed cannot be adjusted unless VS mode is disengaged or decoupled. Hope that helps. Mark - Just Flight

@neucoas Thank you for reporting this. We have logged this on our internal bugs/feature request tracker to investigate. Mark - Just Flight

@rondon9897 Are there any failure flags visible on the HSI when this occurs? If so, that would indicate the HSI isn't being supplied with electrical power, so it may be worth checking that both batteries and both avionics master switches are on the overhead panel. Even with a state selected, if some MSFS control assignments are being triggered that could prevent those switches from moving to the correct positions. Other than that, I'm not sure what else could be causing that through the 146 itself. The 'Turnaround' logic is fairly simple logic and just sets the various cockpit switches in the correct position for a turnaround, it doesn't specifically touch anything to do with the course selectors. If there are any error messages on the EFB such as 'loading aircraft' or 'license failure', then this would indicate a possible activation or simconnect issue that could also be preventing the 146 from initialising correctly.

@bringue2014 This sounds like it may be caused by an installation and/or activation issue. If you could kindly open a ticket with Just Flight support via the following link, they will be able to assist you with troubleshooting this: https://www.justflight.com/support Mark - Just Flight

Yes, the update is with MS for test and release.

@Avionic Disable AUTO CREW in EFB settings. The stairs and doors won't extend/open automatically.

Thanks for reporting this. We've confirmed that it works fine within MSFS model behaviour XML.

Mark, It's brilliant, as the passengers board and the cargo is loaded you can see the "ZFW" "Gross Weight"" increasing to practically match the SimBrief figures. Along with the sounds of the loading and FS Traffic, GSX Pro its becoming more and more immersive.

@Haseen If you are starting from a cold and dark state, the VHF NAV 2 radios will need to be powered on by rotating the inner knob on the VHF NAV 2 control panel clockwise. The control panel is located on the right side of the glareshield. With the VHF NAV 2 radios powered, the DME distance will display when an active VOR frequency has been tuned, the aircraft is in range of the VOR, and the VOR/ADF indicator on the RMI is set to VOR. Hope that helps. Mark - Just Flight

Yes, that is the behaviour I am seeing too, so it must be something specific to the YBBN arrivals in the Navdata that the UNS-1 doesn't like. This is all logged on our internal bugs tracker and the UNS-1 development team has been made aware of it, so hopefully, we should be able to get some answers and a fix implemented soon.

@piedmonitor Sadly I don't believe there is an ALT ARM control assignment in MSFS, likely due to none of the default aircraft having an altitude arm button. We'll take a look and see if there is another control assignment we can assign to it for the next update to the 146. Mark - Just Flight

@Jpol Thanks for posting the OFP. Could you let us know how the weights varied in the simulator, versus how they are listed on that OFP? Was it the same as you previously reported where the passenger weights were lower than what was listed on the OFP, but the cargo weights were higher? Could you also let us know if this was on the second flight of a session (i.e. after a turnaround), and were you using GSX for boarding/deboarding? Mark - Just Flight
