  1. Could you post your log.txt file (found in your root X-Plane folder). This tells us more about the crash. If you've started X-Plane again since the crash, you'll need to load the TBM again and have it CTD on you, so a new log file is written.

  2. Thank You very much. This great plane is all the more perfect thanks to Your support and assistance. ;-)

  3. The ELEC pumps usually stay on "all day" - you turn them on in the morning (before the first flight) and then shut them down in the evening (when leaving the aircraft). You need to have clearance from ground personell to turn them on, often the guy doing the outside check will knock on the plane skin and then give you a thumbs-up when all flight surfaces are clear (because they can move when turning on the ELEC HYD). You do need AC power to turn them, so you will need GPU or APU supplying the main AC buses. They are turned on very early in the preparation, because running them has the advantage of supplying power to the brakes (in case the accumulator wears down during extended ground time) and also being able to spot leakage during the outside check. You will normally not turn them off during "the day" - the only reasone I can think of right now is the supplementary procedure "Push back with no bypass pin installed" - where you need to depressurize the A system during pushback.

  4. Before this turns into another FS vs XP thread, I'll say we've got the FS2020 SDK, and we know what is going into it. And that's where our information will stop. All I want to say about this is that FS2020 is a flight sim. X-Plane is a flight sim. Both have lived and grown alongside each other for the better part of 2-3 decades. MSFS development has stopped once or twice in those 20-30 years, but it has never had an effect on X-Plane to the extent of "Laminar will go out of business." Use whatever you want to use. It's up to Laminar and the X-Plane developers to keep people interested in X-Plane to the point where the community will show enough interest in it to keep using it. We all have our own, individual preferences. And rightly so. Let the products speak for themselves.

  5. Did you pay close attention to the videos? They all show the same few carefully edited pieces of footage. Hardly anyone free-flies, you don't get to see anything of the aircraft, and what I've seen, there are severe deficiencies in the flight modelling. FS2020 is STILL using the FS flight model from FS98. The SIMULATOR has not progressed. They've added a few things on top, but it is still the same heavily limited and defective flight model it always was. FS2020 looks impressive, but as a simulator, it's going to be nothing but a disappointment. X-Plane has nothing to worry about. (Before anyone gets excited, I'm NOT a tester. These opinions are just based off what I have seen of the simulator, and interviews I've watched of the developers).
