Hi Claudio,

I see exactly the same thing. Initially I tried from a different airport with a different route and it was fine. I tried again...

[Kevin Hall]

Yes, essentially the technique is the same, it's just a matter of getting used to the aircraft....

Hi Armen,

I've been able to trigger the engine sound loss in the default A320. I'd tried SET PAUSE ON, waiting for various times then SET...

Don't expect the 737 to annunciate LAND3 when you select the second AP. The 737 doesn't go to dual channel fail ops until you are below 1500ft RA (from...

[Kevin Hall]

It helps if you are already at or near the G/S intercept altitude when you begin to extend flap. If you are still descending decelaration will be difficult...

Hi Zac,

Tune another VHF COMMS channel to the frequency you want to monitor and press the round volume button (with an arrow on it) for the...

[Kevin Hall]

I don't agree that XP is way ahead of MSFS. I find that far too twitchy, especially for large aircraft. But let's not have a platform argument. In the...

[Kevin Hall]

You certainly can, the APU doesn't need the bleed valve open to run. Even if you switch the APU bleed air on before starting the bleed valve will not...

[Kevin Hall]

The biggest problem I've noticed is the weak pitch for airspeed control by the AFCS. It's fine if you are already close to the set airspeed but if you...

The trim wheel in the 737 is very highly geared to allow pilots to crank it manually without electrical power. So it should move quite a lot to make a...

[Kevin Hall]

Part of the problem is that the manual talks about the flightplans and WX folder being under the MSFS root folder. I understood that to be the root folder...

[Kevin Hall]

As Marc said, leave both A/T switches in ARM. They are only ever used in the event of a failure, you wouldn't switch them off when shutting down the...

You'll find it on the Desent Forecast page. Press the DES key then FORECAST.

Marc, I solved the UI resource hogging issues by putting an external frame rate limiter on MSFS. The in game limiter doesn't work in the UI.

[Kevin Hall]

There's one forum for all the different aircraft types, but different sim platforms can't mix?

[Kevin Hall]

I think he commented on the speed trim. Either it was too active or active but not effective....

[Kevin Hall]

You can switch off the music. FSX had music too. The only good thing about the UI is its flexibility. Once you get the hang of it it's not so bad. Worse...

[Kevin Hall]

I use the same method as was used in P3D and FSX. It works perfectly well in MSFS....

[Kevin Hall]

The free version of FSUIPC doesn't have autosave.

[Kevin Hall]

It will be back I'm sure. P3D support hasn't been withdrawn and I doubt PMDG would turn away business like that.
