I am making a Dev request for the next update. When using this aircraft with Fseconomy the weight and balance window is totally blacked out. This will cause the plane to be very tail heavy and no way to correct it. I would personally like the ability to go back into the weight and balance window after starting fse to re-adjust the weight portion to result with a better CG. Also I'd like the availability of adding cargo or what ever to the trip. I use this strategy with my REP Aircraft all the time and it works well. Fseconomy does not care about weight, only fuel. So this works better. Thanks for the consideration. Dave

Thanks. Cool. NP. Dave.

@skiselkov Hello. I Purchased this AC a couple days ago. Today marks my 3rd flight with her. Brilliant Aircraft!. I've been saving up for it, and not disappointed. I do want to point out, that for some reason this "bug" still exist. I downloaded the AC on Sunday August 11th. So it should be the latest version. Is there a web page I need to go to to update the AC to a different version which the store download gave me? Last night I flew the AC and this part broke ( Standby Alternator ). I replaced the part after the flight. Today's flight. 1.5 hours on the same part resulted with yet another broken part and I needed to replace the entire part. Repairing for cheaper is not an option for some reason. I am running XP11.34. I have not updated to 11.35 yet. I assume that the part is breaking when, like the others, i am going through the checklist and test the backup Gen. It appears to work correctly on the MFD. I make sure the amps are LT 80, and it still breaks it. Anyway, I guess I'll skip this test for the time being. Thank you. Dave.

For me, this has always been a problem. The only fix would be to go to the Better PB and request he fix the issue. I no longer use it. I use either XP PB or more often, i use the Map and turn the aircraft sideways at the gate so i can just power out. Dave

Rofl. Yeah. Might be best to just reload the aircraft on the ground using these quicker methods than i was using until we can get to the bottom of it. Dave

NP. I'll take a SS and I'll save the log.txt. Thanks. Dave

Good morning Cameron. Thanks for the reply. The white box i believe is the gizmo. You'll see code and some sort of wording about authorizing the AC. If this box does not disappear on it's own, then there is a greater chance something will be off. But when the box does disappear on it's own, then things are normally ok. These little problems are sporadic. The hydro, like the other post says, will stay on. Even on auto, it gets stuck. The nav radio's. Same thing. Sometimes the freq won't be displayed on the glareshield. When this happens nav 1 will not work. But you don't always notice it's not working until after you've done all the start up checks. Sl These issues are random. So even if the gizmo box stays on screen, sometimes everything is okay. But in more than half of the instances there will be an issue somewhere. So my fix is to just load twice. Never had a problem that way. However i can test for you. So i can add gpu power first. Then if the hydro stays on what files would you like me to send you?. Dave

Something i do with this AC is to load it twice each time before i fly. Yes it's time consuming but the first load authorized the plane. This sometimes breaks systems. Like sometimes the hydro stays on. Or the nav radios won't work properly. the way i fix all these little problems is to just load then quit XP and load again from scratch. The second load never brings up the white box and all systems always work properly then. So it's just my routine with this AC. An extra 3 minutes. But it's worth it lol. Dave

I use this plugin ( iGoConnect ). You need an ipad though. At the ios store it costs a few dollars. But it's a one time fee. The App is awesone!. It takes care of all the W&B for you and even will calculate the CG and.. the CG will change as you fly due to Fuel burn. Really cool ad on.

Confirm with a dev first. But i believe you can simply use plane maker to add the icao if not there already. Dave

Ah ok. Thanks. : ) Dave

3 months. You any closer to a update release. ? Just curious.

A lot of add ons have the option to turn on or off reflections. Whether it be instrument or windshield reflections. I personally fly without reflections on when that option is available . But that is an individual based option. So maybe you could make it an option in the next update?. At least i now know it's the red binder causing the reflection. Lol it was not obvious for me. I would rather just turn them off and have instrument reflections on. Dave

Yes except for the aforementioned items, everything is working well. So i know the license is valid. I really think it has to do with the glass reflective properties. i can still see a constant red tint only in one area, on the left side window at about eye level. I guess this is an attempt to illustrate a reflection of a system light or cockpit interior light. But it's very in your face. It's never been braught up. But i think what ever you guys did to allow this red reflection on the left side window at like your 10 oclock is the same thing which causes the wiper issue. I hope you get rid of the red tint area. Dave

I thought The license updates automatically every few days or so. Yesterday i flew her and i saw the pop up console screen displayed upon loading the plane. So it looks like it validates. I haven't tried the wipers in a while. Is there a manual method to enter in my email and pw for this plane?. I'll give that a try. Dave
