@pedropolak I am still not through with the actual FCOM, however, straight from the US Airways FCOM: LANDING Except for autoland approaches, switch off the ATS at 50 feet or above. Start to initiate a flare at approximately 30 feet for a manual landing. For autoland approaches, monitor the thrust lever movement to idle. For all other approaches, retard the thrust levers manually back to idle. After an autoland, the autopilot has to be switched off before 60 knots. Just got done scanning the Alliance FCOM and it reads the same. I understand the manuals provided may say different (I have not read them past recommended settings. I have various FCOMs and that is what I learn on), however there is no FCOM recommendation to use the ATS from start to finish. Granted, there could be another operator SOP that says ATS is to always be used. I know that is the case for the 777. I just can't find reference to that in real documents.

I watch a few good YT channels by real world pilots who feature Black Square aircraft to share their experiences. This problem didn't sideline the BSQ aircraft. I still enjoyed flying them because of the systems depth. That's the incentive to keep working the problem. Keep making great aircraft.

I'd like to also show my interest and support for the addition of an optional integrated GPS. Ideally this would be an option in the EFB aircraft configuration menu that would add a GNSS navigation status display unit and change the FMS to receive position updates that are corrected by the GNSS receiver. This is necessary in Australia where the aircraft are largely operated into remote airfields that lack ground-based radio navigation and often have only RNP approaches. I suppose this is a feature request for those of us nerdy enough to want to do it right

@bjratchf I personally have not tried a full PROF approach in MSFS 2020 with the JF Fokker (F100 specifically). In the aircraft the PROF mode would catch the VDEV from below and start going down. According to the AOM in front of me the Flight Mode Annunciation should read IAS boxed, APP boxed and NAV boxed. I ve witnessed this a handful of times from the right hand seat but most companies would disengage and control the speed with AFCAS and the descent with the VS mode. If the FMS is having trouble following the speeds you can apply constraints in the FMS and the system will try to follow it. You would have to slow down very early though. The PROF mode prioritizes the VDEV over the airspeed and it has latent buffers of how high of an airspeed it can reach before it starts notifying you either an FMA Target warning or ADD DRAG

Thanks Mark. Regards.

Anytime you do a first load of an aircraft, close out back to desktop and restart. This ensures that all the WASM loads properly. Sometimes you don't have to, sometimes you do. Best practice is to close and restart so you don't waste a bunch of time hunting down a problem that really doesn't exist.

Yes- by this time during boarding the GPU had already been dismissed, but the sound was something like a GPU with extra load/stress on it- puzzled me since it wasn't even attached to the aircraft. It was in the F70 that this happened, I have not tried in the F100. Once I did nothing else but switch to NORM, the N2 spooled up just fine. I believe the APU bleed pressure was unchanged.

@Tim-HH It was popular a lot of places because it did what the airlines needed it to do, at the time, better than other options. American Airlines was the largest single operator of the F-100, which does not seem to make sense. Once the CRJ came along, that is the way they went. However, that 100 seat aircraft niche was dominated by the Fokker 100 for a good bit of time. Financial issues (Dalmer-Benz) were the ultimate doom. I read that there was a company that as late as 2014ish was trying to bring it back into production with updated engines. Amazingly capable aircraft.

Ah. I always keep the co-pilot EFIS dim so that is definitely it! I LOVE this plane! Thank you for all the hard work. It shows. Eddie

Hey @Mark ! I sent a ticket, but I didn't include the log that you ask and all annexes, I will do it next time it happens. Cheers

Thank you for your answer. I was able to reduce the number of packages a bit by placing third-party liveries in the Livery Manager's folder and regenerating the layout.json file. This yields 8 packages at most for the F100, which is an improvement over 10 :-).

@Mark, if I may add for the artist the 25°, 15° and 8°in the picture are paint in a straight across (level). Maybe it’s just a matter of making those level and closer together. Hope that helps sir!

As a quick follow-up on this, our IT team did find and fix the issue with the FAQ "Page 2" on Friday evening. So the FAQs should now be fully viewable: https://support.justflight.com/support/solutions/folders/17000144909 Apologies for the inconvenience. Mark - Just Flight

The F70 & F100 Professional can be activated either via the installer or via the EFB/Tablet. If it has been successfully activated in the installer, it does not need to be activated again on the EFB/Tablet. Mark - Just Flight

A fellow F70 & F100 user has posted their TCA Thrustmaster sensitivities here: https://community.justflight.com/post/51459 Hope that helps. Mark - Just Flight

We are looking into a possible incorrect path depiction on the ND on long legs: https://community.justflight.com/post/51217 Mark - Just Flight

There aren't many systems powered when only the Batteries switch is selected ON, but there should be the sound of some avionics in the background, as well as the EFIS Emergency Cooling Fan. On the overhead, the EFIS EMER COOL FAN annunciator should be illuminated, along with the ELECTRIC panel displays and the dome lights. If none of those things is happening, then that would suggest an installation/activation issue. We'd recommend unsintalling/reinstalling the F70 & F100, and ensuring that the Activation Key is entered either when running the installer, or on the EFB/tablet after loading into the aircraft. If the issue persists after a reinstall, we would kindly ask you to contact Just Flight Support for further assistance: https://www.justflight.com/support Mark - Just Flight

I've just done a quick test with the F100 at 30,000 kg, and VMA looks correct. In the following screenshot, VMA is approximately 128, and the VREF for flaps 0 is 134. [image: 567a562d-35fd-4787-bca4-353330385962.png] VMA does vary with flap position, as well as the weights entered in the FMS. Mark - Just Flight
