    @Black-Square said in RNAV/VNAV with Commander 114: @rinkerbuck I've already fixed this for the next update. I found that while flying it was much more confusing to switch back and forth between the NAV radios. This way, you only have to press the swap button on the radio, and the waypoint button on the RNAV. Otherwise, you can't consistently monitor NAV 2 for crossing radials on the second localizer. This way, primary navigation information stays in place on the top, and secondary information on the bottom. Well how does it work in the real aircraft avionics?

    Didn't realize you needed clearance to start a small piston in EU, sounds absurd to me with the amount of training flights starting simultaneously at my home airport.

    I found a command to enable FD. I also found a command to enable TEST, but when I press the button, the test only lasts for one second... Although in the cockpit, when I press the button, the TEST lasts for about 30 seconds. I used 1 (>L:var_AutopilotTest, bool). And I still haven't found the command for AP DN and AP UP buttons...

    Loving the depth and realism of the Starship, but I'd like to request a feature or option for a modernized FMC upgrade that allows us to directly select and load RNAV SIDs and STARs into the flight plan. While keeping the classic/period-accurate avionics intact as a default is awesome for retro flying, the real-world airspace system is rapidly evolving. Ground-based VORs are continuously being decommissioned, and standard airways are systematically being replaced by RNAV routes, T-routes, and Q-routes. Because virtually all modern terminal airspace procedures now mandate RNAV 1 / RNAV 2 departures and arrivals with complex leg types, manually keying in fix-by-fix waypoints into the CDU isn't fully practical (and leaves out altitude constraints and procedures with non-fix leg types). Having a toggleable modernized FMC option—or expanded database support for procedural departures and arrivals—would dramatically improve quality of life when flying on VATSIM or in modern IFR environments. Thanks for considering this, and appreciate all the fantastic work on the aircraft!

    @skyseek Maybe a silly question, but are you sure that you removed throttle locks?

    @Jayman88 Did you check the Activation Details for Real Taxiways 2020 under the "Your Orders" tab on your Just Flight account? Unfortunately, I know that @Voice-of-Reason is away on holiday right now, but I will try to get you an answer from someone at Just Flight if one of the support staff does not see this post in short order. Sorry for the wait!

    Breaking: I found a way to solve the problem It can probably be done smarter, but the way it was solved was to delete (or rename) the Packages folder, MSFS will rebuild it after a restart, copy Bsq King Air and Asobo King Air from MSFS2020 to the Community folder and restart the sim. I am soooo happy, because now I can run the Gps via Glassout. And it turned out that I was not the only one with this problem, my brother in law had the same problem. But @Black-Square : pretty pretty please with sugar on the top: please release a 2024 version. I got cat pictures

    @Black-Square said in New and improved state saving: @Bishop I've been up all night monitoring the 114 release, so I've been slowly working on the code rewrites required to bring this to all my other aircraft. Glad tp hear you're looking forward to it, because this one is a lot of work. Wow, I recall you mentioning somewhere on the forum long ago just what a time consuming project that would be.... Many thanks and appreciation! Wild to get that kind of enhancement for free.

    Glass out does a pretty good job of finding most screens and instruments (not all). Most of these are from glassout - they look exactly like the starship cockpit above. [image: 3c0b01b5-61dc-413a-9454-08c6e6eafa5a.jpeg]

    @NixonRedgrave Glad you figured out the sound. Sorry for the delay. The temperature regulation problems have more to do with the lack of mass air movement through large forward-facing inlets, but rather just those two NACA ducts on the top of the aircraft. This is a typical problem with pusher aircraft, including the Skymaster. Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you! Always happy to help!

    @Butsey19 I used to fly an E model years ago (many years ago lol). I would absolutely love a C model too. I know I'm asking too much but it would be amazing if he did a release that included an early period model, mid period model, and late period model. So like a C then a K or TLS then the acclaim. I would drop some serious cash on that lol!

    Nick's statement that the Twin Commanders are "the first Black Square aircraft modelled and textured professionally" is the most unbelievably humble instance of "selling yourself short"... So stoked for everything to come. P.S. Mayhaps could we get an FAA Flight Check bird with the King Air? Although their B300s have a ton of modifications (to such a degree that they are hardly recognizable as KA300s), would it be possible to represent some of the superficial differences on the exterior? (E.g. the two window deletes on the left side, extra antennas, winglets.)

    @alanfernandes Yes you are correct but a lot of 3rd party devs have added in other features that aren’t included with the base working title avionics. Like for the G3000/G5000 Skyward developed a whole Datalink functionality with it and it has some protections built in. Especially now that we know that the King Airs are gonna be the 300 and the 1900D both of them could get garmins. The 1900D has a slightly specialized one called the G950nxi and the 300 has the regular G1000nxi.

    @Black-Square My uncle used to be VP at Viking Air (Now the revived DHC). I may be able to help with finding contacts high up at DHC if that was ever an interest to you...
