@jmarkows I thought both were updated much more regularly? Might be wrong though. Strange it's ok in 2024. Something similar happened recently with EDDL or EDDK I think where the numbers were off for ages, people posted about it in the MSFS forums IIRC

The sound comes from the equipment in the IAPS Card Cage at the bottom of the double-door cabinet behind the copilot's seat. It has nothing to do with the EICAS messages, but just had convenient timing, apparently. There is a surprising amount of equipment in that cabinet. So much so that it has its own cooling air source from the cockpit blower.

@JRHorse said in PSA: Simbrief implemented Takeoff Performance Calculator for Avro RJ: I brought this up to the navigraph forums the other day, and when I pointed out that the Avro RJ had the TRP, they implemented flex on both the RJ and the 146. I’ve noticed in a couple of trips though that it has given me a very high flex temp suggestion, 50 C. I found myself nearly running out of available runway on those occasions. I just dialed it down and found a temperature that seemed more suitable. Isn't that sort of the point? If you do optimal temp and flap calculation in the Maddog, you get the same thing. You're trading engine wear for runway.

Interesting. I think I saw a post with something that looked a little like this on the developer forums, but I didn't pay much attention to it, because it didn't apply to aircraft.

@SinkRate said in Any news on the Pro Bonanza and Barons?: @Kestrel21 I don't think a normally aspirated Duke exists. A normally aspirated Duke would also be an unpressurized Duke. Lol you are right, I should have put piston engined

No, there is no such option.

While I'm always listening to everyone's suggestions, and I'm not ruling out a change like this, I thought I would just clarify that the GNSS Sensor Enable/Disable option in the CDU is a real feature in all the current Starships. I understand that pressing this button once to disable the GPS for all future flights might be "immersion breaking" if you put yourself entirely in the mind of a Starship pilot in the 1980's, but there is nothing unrealistic about it in today's Starships.

The current workaround is to start a Duke, make sure the radios are working and then start new flight with TBM.

I hate to disappoint, but there is no texture that controls the background color. You could edit some files, and then some other files, and then edit more files, but it would be a lot of work. Then, the colors would still be off when you use some of the reversionary modes, because those are baked into the model file. The colors you see in the manual are either a product of the lighting, or color correct applied to make the screens more readable. Sorry to disappoint.

@brettmercier said in Feature suggestion: ‘Randomiser’ mode: the A2A Comanche has state saving of fuel, weights and cockpit switches/knobs and it is still fully functional in MSFS 2024 Unfortunately, the Commanche's cockpit state-restoring has been erratic for me in FS2024. The important internal systems like options settings and wear & tear work fine, but the cockpit state, not so much. e.g. if I exit the flight with the parking brake set, sometimes it loads in with parking brake set and sometimes it doesn't. And radio frequency restoring has never worked for me. I can only take a wild guess that the reason it works better for some people than others is different PC performance affecting race conditions differently. I haven't bought the Aerostar, but I'm curious to see if they're able to overcome these issues in FS2024 in that one. But in regards to seeing how they're doing it, A2A uses WASM, so if their state-saving depends on the WASM parts at all, you'd have to disassemble that, giving you a machine-converted wasm-to-C file or something, with no dev comments in it. Might not be impossible to figure out but could be a time-consuming project.

@MarkS Yeah Nick's videos are great as well as his aircraft! Here's a recent favourite of mine https://youtu.be/1AX4MTZ43mE?si=bmtxLD8ucvwBnIB5 Cheers James

Can you guys explain to me how to properly set the honeycomb Bravo to correct selected altitude without changing all other selected values like say heading ? I can't make it work by following what's been recommended before. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Thanks

In VR, the GTN would be a lot more user friendly. I don’t even need it to drive the AP, just having it for frequencies, traffic alerts, charts, etc. would be good enough for me. Understand if you want to wait for full functionality however.

Cool, once again I'm impressed with how meticulously you researched these exotic avionics
