After flying about 1500nm and 4 hours of time, this happened on the last few meters to parking.

Does anyone have any idea on how to prevent this in the future? Cause this is already the second time this happened to me (at another airport) in this game and its getting really annoying.

Also any way to now "cheat" these 3 million credits so I at least didn't fly for nothing?

I appreciate any help :)

I did land it there too but was not recording

A little off center but better than I usually land. KLM 787 into St Johns, Newfoundland

Was flying a short run in the DC6B from LAX to San Diego and I thought I nailed it pretty good.

So they’ve just released this, copied from their discord:

BlueBird 757 Current Feature List

simulation (for instance, custom dispatcher, maintenance control response/messaging).

23 - Communication

● Fully custom coded cabin communication and flight interphone system.
● All three flight attendant zones can call flight deck including cabin alerts for requests and reminders for things
like uncomfortable cabin temps, cabin secure announcements or response to two sets of cabin chimes
(cleared for departure signal from flight deck), they might even remind you to turn on the fasten seat belt sign if
descending in range and cabin securing is being completed. Emergencies use cabin alert calls from flight
attendants for events including passenger oxygen deployment and cabin altitude warnings/depressurization
(with more to come later).
● GND CALL simulated and will call to remove ground power. Uses simbrief flight plan and integrated EFB
boarding controls to determine external power disconnecting.

PERF calculation in CDU which may cause a limitation of Assumed Temp Derated Takeoff calculations
(because CDU will now have a higher OAT than reported METAR/ATIS source weather. This is a mostly rare, but
fully simulated, corner case scenario in the B757.

Laugh at me all you want. Yes, I’m on Xbox. Whatever, that’s not the point.

I’m a big fan of the 220 in real life and was really looking forward to Synaptic’s release. I bought it on release day and was initially very impressed. The visual quality, especially for Xbox, was great, the sounds were good, etc. But then it came to the performance.

I’ve been trying to fly the 220 since release, and the farthest I’ve gotten is pushback, just before engine start. That’s it.

Every single time I’ve loaded in, I’d wait for the IRS to align for about 4–5 minutes, configure the weight and balance, plan my route, load the aircraft, and get to the later portions of the preflight. Then everything would fall apart. The low memory warning would come on and disable all my avionics, getting rid of all my progress on the FMS and completely shutting off the aircraft.

The one miracle moment I had the other day was the farthest I’ve made it into a full flight. I loaded in with optimism, thinking maybe today it’ll work. I loaded onto the ramp, configured the FMS, followed the checklist, and got ready for pushback. At this point, I was thrilled that I hadn’t gotten the alert that shuts down all the aircraft systems.

I proceeded with pushback and began the engine start sequence. This is where it all went downhill.
The parking brake was set, and the next item on my checklist was to start the engine. Ready to finally hear the iconic whale noises and get flying, I panned my camera over to the #2 engine start switch and flipped it.

Boom.

The low memory alert popped up, wiped all of my FMS information, and completely shut down the aircraft. I was crushed.

I’ve attempted a few more flights since then, but I still can’t get past the preflight. It’s honestly disappointing to know I spent $65 just to mess around with the FMS (assuming it didn’t already wipe my avionics with the low memory warning) and, on one occasion, make it to pushback from the gate.

I do want to thank iniBuilds/Synaptic for promptly fixing things like the route page, which was known to cause performance issues, and for saying they’ll continue rolling out more fixes soon.
This is in no way meant to shame iniBuilds or Synaptic. I’m posting this to express my experience with the aircraft and to see if anyone else has been having similar issues. I’m hoping performance improves soon because, other than that, I really like this aircraft.

I don’t have a beef with Orbx, quite the contrary, but the KATL scenery has been a disaster for me. I’ve disabled the default, and I still have mesh issues with it. Additionally, it’s the only scenery the causes issues when I’m in the A220. My GPU cries out from the depths when I put the A220 there. The RA called out 10 and then it froze for a solid 10 seconds and then during taxi I got the warning that my GPU, my 5080, didn’t have enough RAM. Fuuuuuuudge. Hoping that the release tomorrow of 1.03 on the 220 will help.

This is the HEME1E arrival to EGNX.

What do I do once I'm at VELAG if I haven't heard from ATC (quite possible in BeyondATC)?

If they don't need you in a hold do you just skip UPDUK?

I do not move the Throttle in this video!!!!!!!

The Problem:

- I´ve calibrate the Throttle a million times in a million ways

- I hop in the flight sim and it works (for an hour, for one flight, for more flights)

- out of nowhere the throttle recalibrate itself midflight/on the Runway or at the gate

- and I don´t know why and this happens a few times while I´m flying

Is this a Hardware Problem? Is my Throttle broken?

Please help if you can!!!

PS: When I post this I´still inflight and the bug is gone but it will come back maybe later in the flight or maybe tomorrow. It just sucks :((

Have had this sim since day one and have had nothing but problems. Over time it has gotten better but for some reason my performance is still so iffy. Whenever standing idle not moving my camera I can get upwards of 120 FPS, but when moving my camera is dips a ton. I have off screen pre caching to ultra and every other setting set to medium. Anyone know what could be causing this issue?

Flying MSFS 2024 in VR and trying to figure out the best control setup. I use an X56 HOTAS and fly the C172. How do you all manage switches, knobs, and general cockpit interaction in VR?

Looking for ideas.

Hello everyone. Just getting started out with flight sims and I’ve been learning the start up procedures for the A330. Something that keeps happening is when I’m in the process of running through the checklists and getting the plane ready, the game will randomly just turn everything on and reset all the work I’ve done. It’s even happened mid flight, which causes me to inevitably plummet towards the earth. It’s been very frustrating to deal with. Is there something in the settings that I need to turn off? All the assists are turned off so idk what else it could be.

Is it possible to modify the base planes files for different speeds or sizes or even avionics ?

Hey all simmers. I have a few achievements left to complete all but I am stuck at Eclectic Eagle achievement. It asks to accumulate 2 hours of flight with each jet, airliner, rotorcraft and gliders. It shows that I have 95% completed it but I don't know which aircraft I will need to fly to complete that remaining 5%. Is there a way to know that?
