    @Buzz I haven't looked into all of the details yet, but I believe all three of the points you mention are unrelated to the new propeller governor and fuel-topping governor behavior. The first should just be a constant in the engine.cfg, which I believe was only set incorrectly by accident in one of my aircraft (Baron Professional?) I'll check my changelogs, but it should be fixed now. I'm not sure exactly what the real world behavior is that you're describing here, but the only type of governor failure that I model in my aircraft is failure to achieve maximum RPM. Assuming you're talking about when shutting down an engine, this could be fixed, and I've looked into it. My propeller simulation is where I fight with the underlying simulation harder than anywhere else, so progress is hard won. I might have an elegant solution to this that I will try before my round of summer updates, but I haven't made any promises in case it gets ugly.

    @IanMcLav Hi, did you find out why the trim wheel moves slightly forward and backward when the AP is engaged? I have the same issue in MSFS2024 version of the caravan.

    Guys, have you tried after SU5? I've tried in the Baron, and it seems like it has not saved the state (the Hobbs meter was rolled back like the flight didn't happen). Either I'm missing something or we will have to get used to restarting our flights for good

    I'm curious about something. Do you have your own registration/tail number set in the MSFS24 menu? In the section where you choose variant and liveries, the last tab at the end where you set the identification? Try to clear that section out and see if the persistence works better. I asked because before this update, my pmdg airline configuration settings weren't being loaded automatically depending on the livery because I had my own registration set. Once i cleared that, the airline Config options automatically loaded correctly.

    @RealPax that's good to know, thanks for being the first to try it! I didn't scan the patch notes extensively so I missed that line.

    @Black-Square I worded that extremely poorly; I was trying to convey I was asking about pax not needing oxygen until 15,000ft. Your proposed solution makes sense to me in that context.

    @DeWoert Thank you for sharing this nice robust solution for the white boxes! I hope you folks don't mind me sharing a little extra 'work around' [extract taken from https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/white-box-over-vpilot-traffic-tail-number/312004/20] that disables the dynamic registration and thus enables us to paint a registration onto the appropriate texture, share the 'addon aliased' texture then have it visible in a Multiplayer Session as usual. First, as you can see from the screenshot, apply your registration to the appropriate C208 Texture using your usual repaint software. Then: "In MSFS, when you go to World Map to launch a flight. Select an aircraft and a livery, then go to “customization” On “Tail Number” make sure your cursor is in the box and hit “ALT 255” on the number pad. This will create a “null” character in that box and will virtually create an empty box." Sorry that this is a 'messy' solution but it works fine in MSFS2020 [I don't have 2024]. Perhaps there's a cleaner solution... Dave [image: ea27bf76-18f5-459b-95fd-1684d470a0f5.png]

    @Black-Square It would indeed be a huge amount of work, but it doesn't interfere with the simulation in any way. For me, the Starship is the best aircraft in the simulator that I've ever been able to purchase and study. I hope you'll continue to support it by implementing improvements and fixing bugs over time. Thank you!

    Good afternoon everyone, I was at FS Weekend in Lelystad, Netherlands last March. I bought the Fokker there as a pre-order; it was indicated there that it is expected to be released around the end of April. Can the developer indicate what we can expect regarding the release? It has been quiet for a while now. Hopefully, you can provide me with this information. Thank you in advance for your reply. Regards, RichardV

    For anyone struggling with this, here are my findings across a few planes. Its an interesting thing I promise First up: There are controls you can bind that work even for those ADF units that wont show or let you set decimals: [image: 38441838-343b-4448-9909-99ba1c496db1.png] That'll let you tun +/- 0.1 per button press, so you can make any of the ADF equipped planes work if you need to. And here's the verdict for various GA aircraft for those of us in the UK and elsewhere with .5 congested frequencies Tested by sitting on the ground at EGHI and trying to get 391.5 for the EAS NDB less than a mile away Cessna 172 G1000 (or I assume anything G1000) [image: 1d104a78-7cbb-41ee-b7be-89f68bbc2121.png] Lets you tune whatever decimal you like. Nice. Cessna 172 Steam [image: e2fbdcb6-84f3-4582-8c39-76f52decf1af.png] Fail. No Decimal tuning and no auto tuning. (you can use keybindings as above but you wont see the decimal changing - but you WILL see the freq round up to 392 when you set 391.5 Here's my stream Deck output showing (A:ADF ACTIVE FREQUENCY:1, Number) at the very same moment [image: bc14ed9e-153b-4f03-bd6b-e276ab9f8f98.png] Cessna 152 [image: f3fe0dfc-d1a0-4561-b127-68bc656361f2.png] Fail, same as the Steam 172. No decimals but you can use the keys if you can count to 5. Though interestingly, if you do use the keys it will show you have decimal, just not what that decimal is. [image: 1614b81d-0ae6-4001-b974-53ba34b78b62.png] And I can tell you that 391.5 works, but .4 or .6 does not. At all. The needle just dies immediately. JF Tomahawk and JF Pipers Auto, baby! Here's the unit... no room for decimals [image: 6103ea93-7023-4175-86d6-da1f8ccda33e.png] But about 5 seconds after tuning 391.0... We see (A:ADF ACTIVE FREQUENCY:1, Number) jump to 391.5 and lock, and the needle will move: [image: 997ad238-ce6c-4b1f-95bf-41543c94294a.png] Black Square Bonanza and Caravan: [image: 2cc3acf7-92b9-4f5a-99c3-4519734bb003.png] Both let you click the Off/Vol knob to add .5 each time. And have the . feedback to let you know its on .5. Nice. Black Square Starship [image: 1c47e06f-45eb-4193-8257-b6d946c4365b.png] AND [image: d3d09e44-6bcf-478a-a175-7aa415ddd730.png] Lets you set the decimal, and lets you do that in 2 different ways, because of COURSE it does. Because it's the best plane the company ever built. Blackbird Cessna 310R, Bagolu's Cessna Bushkit, etc etc I guess they use the default Asobo ADF KR80TSO unit because it does nothing clever. Here it is set to 391.5 using the keys: [image: 86b5ac4e-3a93-49cd-bb12-d6501e5ffa58.png] "Not ideal." Key points: Not too many people care about ADF especially .5 tuning. But we love those who do, @Black-Square and @just-flight! Asobo should implement auto .5 tuning, maybe in both directions, in their KR80TSO You can make it work in any ADF equipped plane using keybinds but they're not great. I apparently have nothing better to do than clog runways while playing with ADF
