We are testing preliminary X-Plane 12 support in the beta release of CL-650. But there’s a lot of work to do to make it fully compatible, and may take multiple releases.

I find incident/accident report always highly interesting (and sobering). They often give a unique insight in the machine, the way it is operated, the HMI, the procedures etc etc. Even for the flight sim pilot they contain great value. The below one for CL60 D-AAAY definitely caught our attention S2-2022_Bombardier_CL-600-2B16__604__D-AAAY.pdf

Switching the units for the altimeter is via DCP Menu (PFD) - Config. And welcome to the Challenger community. I started a few months ago, have come a long way through the help of the community. The support team are highly responsive, and there some actual Challenger pilots involved as well. Lots of good stuff in this forum, including training videos.

Thank you. It will be fixed.

This failure will be added to the product so you can try this out for yourself in the safety of your own home!

The solution here the Marquise employed is the TCS mode (Touch Control Steering). This is documented for the 2.0.3 update which should go out soon...its in X-Aviation's hands, but they're also working through multiple product transitions to V12, so it should hit soon enough. The TCS is an effective way to alter IAS and VS values without having to look down or change/disable AP modes...and once you get used to it, dare I say somewhat preferred (by me anyhow) over a knob based solution...you can keep your eye on the instruments at all times while holding down the TCS button and changing the VS or IAS values. -TK

quick update. Last week was a wash for the Moo XP12 conversion....the AP docs taking a bit longer than anticipated (but 95% done) ....and a few "transition obligations" were called in last week by companies I severed ties with but pledged "transition help" to not leave those groups hanging....including Laminar. I fully expect to have the next 2.0.3 patch out in 2-3 days with the GTN option for the windows guys...and will roll right into the MU2 12 update. -TK

Please for god's sake make it a paid upgrade, if only to get you guys to be more financially motivated in your work. The IXEG has been languishing for years, and I've seen addons from other developers being released at an unfinished state, and those devs lose interest as sales slow to a trickle. I loved the 737 Classic and I would love to throw money at you guys if I can get a fully featured (i.e. proper VNAV and holding), fully functioning addon. I also want the -400 and -500 if you want to make paid extensions as well, like what PMDG is doing. Also some Brunner force feedback yoke support would be nice.....

No doubt. Its the toughest plane I've ever had to lay out/paint and I've done a lot...some special techniques are required to get the best results. Its just not shaped like a simple tube-liner and making it "paint friendly" somewhat compromises what we can do with PBR nowadays. Liveries will come in due course...if not by others, then by me...once I have higher priority stuff in place. (GTN integration, XP12 port etc). Not like the MU2 is going away. TK
