The MSFS 2024 RJ Professional is pure excellence!
-
I bought the BAE 146 about a year ago for MSFS 2020 but never did a single flight in it, because back then there were features I expected to be there but they weren't and I could not convince myself to spend time and learn the aircraft.
Having watched some videos about the newest updates, I thought I'd buy the RJ Professional for MSFS 2024 for myself as a Christmas present.
Boy it did not disappoint! I think Justflight truly matured to a level very few reached in the flight sim high fidelity aircraft scene. All the features (bar one) I consider a "must" these days are present and implemented perfectly. Even nuance things such as the Asobo copilot are there which, for some reason, I find a good thing. She flies very well and the system depth is just about perfect. Without issues I could follow along the manual and complete my first flight. Very predictable aircraft, in a positive way. The RJ is a masterpiece and now I will make sure I also give the BAE a try!
If there is one thing I'd love Justflight to implement, it's the en route chart flight route. Right now the enroute chart does not show the route. Please spend some resources and implement this feature in a similar fashion to how PMDG does it, so that the en route chart not only shows the route when the flight plan is imported, but also updates it in real time if the route is modified in the FMC. This feature would be very useful.
Thank you for your hard work!

If I could add one more request: it would appear the main entry cannot be opened from the outside in walkaround mode by clicking on the door handle - unlike in the BAE 146 Professional where it is possible. For the sake of consistency across the products, could you please make it possible to open the L1 door from the outside by clicking on the door handle?

After about 5 flights, the most annoying bug so far was the TRP not powering up, thus no A/T, resulting in a flight wasted.
My first four flights were in the RJ100, this last one with the TRP issue in the RJ85. I will continue testing the 85, maybe the issue is limited to this variant. It would appear to me that either the variant or tone of the selectable states in the EFB, if clicked, may have to do with the "dead" TRP. During my first four flights I haven't clicked any of the selectable cockpit states in the EFB, just used the aircraft as it loaded into the sim. But on this last flight, I did select the cold and dark state.
Before I gave up, I even tried selecting the "Ready for takeoff" state to see if it brings the TRP to life but nope, it does not. A major bug, flight cancelled. I hope this will be quickly fixed.

Hi Martyn,
I am using the JF store version on a personal computer.
This hasn't come up since I reinstalled the product (although it was installed for only 2 days when it occured) and this time I did NOT enable state saving. I suspect state saving was somehow involved. I cannot prove it but the aircraft which had this issue was used in the previous session and I was unable to ever get its TRP come alive again, not even with loading a new panel state. I tried cold and dark, ready for take off, but the TRP was dead. I decided to reinstall when this happened and I did not enable state saving. So far so good.

I concur. i spent several minutes trying to find the click spots in the RJ profrssional when walking around in first person mode. I thought this was a 2024-native product?

The RJ Professional is an MSFS-2024 native product, meaning that the aircraft package was built natively within MSFS 2024's package system rather than being a ported MSFS 2020 package. Some MSFS 2024 features, such as an updated LOD system and different texture formats, are automatically enabled when building a package in MSFS 2024, whereas other features, such as walkaround mode, require additional development time to implement.
As the RJ Professional was the first of our airlines to be upgraded to MSFS 2024 native standard, we hadn't yet investigated the work required to add walkaround mode support to the product, so it was not implemented in the v1.4 update.
We have since added walkaround mode support to our 146 Professional and F28 Professional products in MSFS 2024, and it will also be added to the RJ Professional in the next update.
