@Buzz It’s not about staring at the plane from the outside, it’s about visual consistency. Since the spinners are part of the pilot's field of view, a static ice effect on a rotating part looks like a glaring oversight. Black Square is known for 'study-level' systems, so the visuals should match that level of detail. As I mentioned, Just Flight has already proven it’s possible to do it right.

@Tadeus72 said in Your favorite medium-long range cruise altitude: Thank you, often when crossing the States I actually look for a scenic route, this might be a great inspiration, will check it out. If you fly it, please let me know how you like it. I think there's one small "error" in it near the Grand Canyon, one airfield you can get into but the runway might be too short to get out of again. Of course, if you're not flying it for the VA you can skip it no problem. I've yet to fly it myself.

@09tir98 Oh, of course, thanks for the answer! I can't believe that explanation didn't cross my mind, but I guess I have spent too much time facing forward in the cockpit.

@django1489 there is icing on the windows

As MiRexer already suggested I would start with an almost empty community folder to make sure it is not caused by any other add-on.

Ah bummer. I wonder if they're working on that though. Might be worth keeping an eye on it!

@Zacke I had this issue last night on my first attempt, and then I did "send to avionics" a second time and it worked. It's the only time I've tried though, so I'm not sure how consistent your issue is.

@aeysim Perfect, thank you!

I have seen that same thing when playing with the breakers to save a bit of battery before starting. If it's not how the unit would work in real life, that's a WT issue, not a Black Square issue, as those are first-party GPS units.

It's not their nav data to be giving out in updates like that. Navigraph gives developers one AIRAC cycle as a business courtesy, but ultimately owns the data.

@Black-Square Here are a few options I can suggest: Put the anchor on the passenger door Do the good ol "click on a magic screw" The old fashioned square button on the panel reminiscent of FSX (i joke i joke) Have the plane load in "if gear up", anchor auto deployed option in the tablet. Also you could put a rope that sits somewhere visible on the pontoon when the door is open. Click and drag the rope to "slew" the aircraft. Just my $.02 but even though my suggestions would be more work, the concept may pay off long term with other aircraft you may be thinking about for the future.

Good news, LEPA Palma De Mallorca Airport will get a MSFS 2024 version-customer support indicated it's in the works by the third-party developer who did it but no ETA for release.

I would love to see a Convair one day!

A Fokker 50 would complement the older, F27 Friendship Local Legend 23 perfectly!

@Airwick Right now it would be, but that will go away with the update.

No worries, maybe something is just broken in my install then. The joys of flightsimming...

That may be true. I just completed a flight using VORs only, and the FD/AP behaved the same way. Hunting for center. More of a concern though, was the AP dropping out of NAV mode to ROLL several times throughout the flight, even when close (20nm) from the VOR. And once from APP mode within 10nm of approach it dropped back into ROLL again.

@SadBucket

@hangar_101 It was my error. I had assigned F2 for the Chase Plane Fly-By input, which also happened to be the MSFS 2024 Default Thrust Reverser assignment. So of course I lost power when I did the Fly-By view. I just removed the Default Thrust Reverser assignment from the F2 binding to solve the issue as I don't use it in any case.
