Honestly, one of the things in life I can wholeheartedly loathe. Not just it messing with circadian rhythm, my meetings, commuting in the dark, and my mood. But I am even doubting any of the "crime" and "economic" impacts that are touted. The only people that seem to be for it, are in Government.

Yes, any light at the end of the tunnel for the XP12 version of the TBM900?

Is there a way to disconnect electric trim or pull a circuit breaker to cause the electric trim to be INOP? I see a pitch trim breaker, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. The context is I have runaway trim as a potential failure but need a way to rectify it.

Also noticed this. When using the UNS-1, AP is super smooth. Only the TDS gets twitchy. FYI, I'm trying it without the RXP .ini files in the folder. Will see if that makes a difference. EDIT: Tried removing the RXP .ini files. No difference. The flight director is smooth for about the first 500 feet AGL then it starts twitching.

Yes. Likely Steam updated your X-Plane to a version that is not compatible (yet).

Is this how it is in real life? I find the relaxed tone at odds with the urgency of the situation, but that's just based off having heard the warnings in other aircraft. terrain.mp4

I am not sure why is that when I try to run the CL650 on X12 it crashes. I was from my system 3 days when it was running smoothly. I certaintly can run it on X11 but not on X12. Does anyone have any idea why? Can it be the lates Steam update? If it is, are there any ways to remove the update? It is an expensive module and reaching out to the seller is complicated. The crash takes me to the beginning and no notifications appears as to why it crashed. It just returns to the play screen in Steam. Please assist.

Well, it might be because development is difficult, and also because Laminar has been modifying the famous SDK, which they have completed, I believe, but it is also true that I had never expected a development to come out before, not even when I worked in a paid capacity. Maybe we are waiting for X-Plane 13 to come out, and since there was no longer a promise to release a version for the 13, we are left with that, with the unfulfilled promise of a magnificent plane that unfortunately we will no longer be able to fly except in bad versions like the MSFS one. But it flies! and it is accessible. I also fly it, sometimes, returning to XP11.

Having flown the Toliss A319 recently, which has no tooltips, I just want to say how much I appreciate the tooltips provided in the Challenger. I noticed this small error a while ago but have never reported it. Chances are you already know. If you hover the outer selector on the CRS knob it says barometer.

Please, that would look awesome on IXEG

Welp Felis 74 and this bird are the only two aircraft I have interest in, regarding XP-12 .. So far incredibly after all these updates, IXEG still flies sweet.. I've made a little tweak to the startup sounds.. Personally the main update for me would be FMC.. The sounds are pretty sweet as they are for now. Whilst I am capable of doing manual holds I would prefer it to be taken care of xD. Meanwhile I have found a plugin that automatically does it. Do I love this addon?, yeah.. Do I think it's a "Broken promise"?.. I don't remember being promised owt, If that's my ignorance, then fair play xD.. All I know is I paid 80 quid for 737 simulation that lasts indefinitely that appears to do (to the best of it's ability) what a real 737 does.. I could rent a sim down south for 2 hours that might do a better job for nearly 300 quid. IXEG 73 is a gorgeous plane and I hope I get few more years out of her. I'd be grateful for any future developent. I always think to what I got when I was a Kid, back end of 90s lol. I have moaned in the past, but I since grown out of that crap.

It's been a while since I've flown the SR22, but with the new update, I figured I'd give it a try. 1 - The CAPS cover and pin can both be removed with no problem. The pin can not be replaced, the cover can be replaced no issue. If I hover mouse over the pin in the center console. the pointer goes 'live', but clicking does nothing. If I go into the dataref tool, and toggle afm/sr/caps/pin, the pin gets removed/replaced fine, just with the mouse click it does not work. 2 - Any power setting over 26", I'm getting a high MP/FF alert. That seems very low. A bug? Or more likely, am I doing something wrong? Thanks, GolfCharlieTango

We aren't even anywhere close to knowing this.

Hi there I just updated to the newest version V2.2.2. When I set the Garmin-map to the following screen (see screenshot) to get airport-informations, the WX-key doesn't work. When I press on it, nothing happens. It works perfectly in the default SR22. I would appreciate any help. Many thanks.

Hello, Could we get a new link to the discord please?

Oh god, I gotta brace my broke self for this, but what is a rough estimate for the price of the Boeing 717?

Thanks for the link, my English isn't very good, so I don't understand some things very well. The crashes are now fixed for me. Dieter Swada

They did. Sorry that the support person you got was unaware. We'll be closing this topic now. You can continue to followup with Laminar.

Here is a screenshot from the answer from x-plane support . as you can see they did NOT make it possible to downgrade, as you told me... so please tell me if I am not understanding something right .... but as far as i can see, there is no way to get version 12.4.0. So what do you suggest I should do ??
