Hi I noticed, when I start flight with CL60 I have blank textures of wings, This textures loading about 20 minutes during my flight preparations how to solve this problem?

The HUD works like it does in real life, the projection is focused to work when viewed from a specific location, you need to move the camera forward to put it in this "sweet spot".

A flawless approach into YPAD rwy 05. RNAV.

You can supply your own registration, D-ALHE isn't printed on the cowling.

I'm having an issue with the popup Oil Service Screen and the Cockpit cell phone. They seem to be sized incorrectly and I cannot click on any of the oil service switches. It seemed to start when I added my 2nd monitor. Did I do something wrong? I can answer the cockpit cell phone when the FBO Calls but I have to click a few inches to the right of the actual button. All the other panels work fine like the fuel panel, fuel truck ect.

State Saving The aircraft autosaves the state, position and trajectory every 20 seconds while in flight or upon entering a runway, and on approach passing 1000 feet above airport elevation. Additionally you can manually save a state and name it. In the unlikely event of a crash you can resume your flight from where you left off by reloading the aircraft and ensuring the “Restore Position and Trajectory” checkbox is selected. State Tracking In most simulated aircraft there are no consequences for leaving a battery on or quitting the sim without a proper shut down. You may be unhappy to discover the state of your aircraft if you do this. Like the TBM, the aircraft tracks its own state and if you fail to shut down the aircraft properly your batteries will be discharging while you are away. Reloading States The aircraft state can be reloaded, optionally with the saved position and trajectory. This allows states such as "Ready to taxi" to be created at one particular airport, then at a later time load the aircraft to a spot at another airport and reload the state without using the saved position. This is a quick way to create scenarios like "Ready for takeoff". Note that when a state is reloaded, the simulation time is not automatically set, so if you are resuming in-flight it will be necessary to set the sim time correctly after loading the state. This may cause a momentary loss of GPS position.

I found this one really helpful, not intimidating in terms of length nor detail. Once you've watched this one you will be able to get your aircraft to the RWY in no time. When proficient with this, you can dive into much more detail with the FAAV videos.

Not sure if you guys use this or not, but I'll give you a nice tip for different checklist. I have assigned this to "0"-key in numpad, so I can access this checklist very fast and it has all the things I need. I currently use this for every flight and I hope you find this useful too. I asked about it after seeing video from "Simulation Channel Deluxe" (very good simvideos from him!), it's visible at 8:47 on his Saab tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOyM1r79iJw He couldn't tell who made it originally so I can't tell much about copyrights. I also made one modification to it. I added "HP Valves (ON)" before takeoff after having some issues with de-icings myself (they don't work when HP valves are closed). Saved view "0": This is how it looks: What you need to do is save the included chart01.png into your Saab's chart directory. In my case my dir is: C:\X-Plane 11\Aircraft\X-Aviation\Saab 340A\Passenger Variant\resources\charts You might want to rename your original chart_01.png before overwriting. When starting your flight, select first chart on the chart "sidemenu" ("01_YSSY_ILS16R.png"?) and you should have checklist on your yoke. You can probably edit chart_list.txt file to have a proper name for it if you want.
