Pressing TIMER on the yoke automatically brings up the TMR/REF page. AviTab support integrated into yoke-mounted tablet. Tablet now stows in the door pocket. You can still use the USB ports to summon it, but this will be removed in a future update. Reworked pressurization schedule. The system will now gradually change the cabin pressure target as we are nearing the destination, instead of going to it immediately on takeoff. Pressurization won't fling open the OFV fully on landing, but modulate until equalization has been achieved. Corrected high-altitude performance to be within +-2 knots of POH tablets. Implemented configuration-dependent KIAS errors to match POH values. Implemented sidebar drawer smooth animation. AOA sensor failure separated out from AHRS and now individually settable in "Edit Failures" window. Visual configurations window now includes option to use older custom heatblur effect. Expired databases show in amber on MFD splash screen. Replaced G1000 manual link with one for the TBM850 & TBM900. Bugfixes: Battery recharge button in maintenance manager was incorrectly disabled. Restructured battery voltage drop with load to give more realistic red battery voltage indications during start. Fixed CAS message pixel alignment issues. GPH indication on EICAS should properly respond when moving into or out of CUTOFF. Electronic checklist was asking for "FUEL SEL" to OFF in a few places, when it should have called for MAN instead. Gear wear was using incorrect sideslip computation. Rudder propwash force correction could end up taking reverse thrust into account, when it shouldn't. Fixed missing pitot & static covers Low-fuel instability wasn't powerful enough. Fixed prop overspeed on reverse with slow forward motion. Workaround for ReShade bug causing hang in its OpenGL hooks DLL. ODB was missing minimum download speed clamp to abort if the download is slow.

I don't know who you are, so there's not much to help you with here. You should be using support@x-aviation.com anyhow.

X-Plane.org does not use our activation system. You are confusing two different things. Either way, the box you see is for products we create at X-Aviation that you do not legally own.

You were using someone else's credentials to use our products illegally. You have now been banned in our system.

Wow.

You did not submit a support ticket over a week ago (unlike you have claimed). It has yet to be even a week. Machine ID's are unique fingerprints for a computer, and are not the same thing as a Machine Name. We never ask you to input a Machine ID. If you received this error in sim it is because you self de-authorized your machine and typed 'FREEZE' in the box when asked to do so as your acknowledgment that the process of de-authorizing is irreversible.

When we have some we'll definitely be posting about it.

And from what I understand it only happens in the 2019 version. All prior versions work okay.

I've heard of that happening twice before. Someone last time completely uninstalled Bit Defender and it worked after that. They switched to a different program, but I don't want to give out that advice. I just know that Bit Defender is what is causing this (I don't own it to help you out further than that).

Moving the aircraft folder will cause you issues during updates. Please do not do that. There is no reason to do so.

If you're using Bit Defender it will block the activation.

I'm guessing you have Bit Defender installed. If so, it is blocking the activation.

No, 1.1.6 has been removed from the server.

There will not be a situation where we enable that option. This product is built to be like the real thing with persistent state between X-Plane sessions. Treat it like a real plane. Shut it down properly, start it up correctly. Use the air frame manager to start fresh. This plane is so popular because of these features. You need to baby it as if it were your own. Learn it in and out and you'll be rewarded.

And that's not legal. See my post above highlighted in bold. Someone made a boo boo on your install.

Straight from Garmin's own website: "In basic terms, capability is the differentiator. The G5 for experimental and light sport aircraft is loaded with capabilities. It can be used as a standalone primary or backup flight display and can toggle between two screens – one displaying attitude, airspeed, altitude, barometric pressure, turn coordination (plus ground speed and ground track if GPS equipped), the second displaying a horizontal situation indicator." "... the G5 for certified was designed for two specific purposes – either as an attitude indicator or turn and bank coordinator (one G5 cannot replace both the attitude indicator and the turn coordinator in a traditional six-pack). In order to satisfy the FAA certification requirements, new software needed to be created for the G5 that does not include the HSI/Attitude display toggle capability that the experimental version boasts. Instead, since this unit was intended to replace the vacuum driven attitude indicators and turn coordinators, the software needed to be designed for those specific purposes."

That doesn't make it legal. Go read the STC if you don't believe me. This is one area I am very well educated in (avionics and STC's). Is it a primary PFD replacement, or a DG/HSI replacement?

If you can do that on an STC'd PFD unit then this is an illegal install. The FAA does not want this, and Garmin does not allow this on a legally installed, STC'd G5 PFD unit UNLESS you installed it to replace a primary HSI/DG and left your primary attitude indicator installed. It's also possible that you or someone who did your install updated the software to the latest version via the SD card slot and accidentally (or not ) installed the experimental software, which overrides this limitation on the STC'd units. Either way, having experimental software on the certified install units is also illegal in the eyes of the FAA/Garmin.

There are actually only two. The EFIS/PFD display, and the HSI. Taking it a step further, if you are in a certified airplane only ONE screen exists per the FAA STC. Only when two are installed together can you have that ability with the HSI unit being able to go between both PFD as a backup, and the HSI. The primary PFD can never show the HSI in a certified install, whereas in experimental it can. The magnetometer is simply there for HDG readings rather than TRK. When the G5 gets a GMU11 paired with it then the heading at the top turns from pink to white to indicate you are seeing HDG instead of TRK. In the images above you can see HDG, implying the GMU11 is "installed" on this aircraft.

The functionality of a G5 wired to a GTN vs the internal GPS is 100% the same. There is no difference in data between the two configurations.

Never mind. I went through tickets one by one from today and found your ticket, referencing what seems to be above and found that you have submitted 70 support tickets. The contents of your support ticket message is: "...I still haven't heard from you thieving assholes. I'm an affiliated streamer who only plays X-Plane, and I have a giant banner on my page telling people to ask me why X-Aviation sucks. I can't even count how many times I've recounted my horrible experience with you fucks. You don't even have an option to request a refund. I will continue to spam the shit out of your fucking support tickets until I hear from you. Fuck you and your shitty, thieving company. I hope you go out of business." Is that correct? I think I've seen enough at this point. You go on with whatever self-important Twitch streaming you do, speak from the top of mountains all you want and embarrass yourself by showcasing your immaturity, and I'll leave this here for anyone to see anytime I see mention of you or your stream. For a person like you trying to crack down on insults, you sure do know how to be the King of them yourself. Embarrassing. I am not one to be shy of threats being flung at me. All of this rhetoric is nothing, and your behavior was simply unacceptable from a human to human standpoint. We'll move on now. Best of luck to you and your Twitch affiliated streaming career going forward.

You mean like numerous things you've said including your 5/5 translation attempt? If you'd like to forgo posting your name, you can post your order number. I can obtain your name that way.

I'm starting to think we have a reading problem here. Not surprised now that you did not see the notice of out of office. Let me ask again. "When was the last one you sent? Please find it or provide your name so I may find the grouped "numerous" support tickets and, again, understand what we're dealing with here." I need the latest ticket number. X5F4B is not bringing any valid ticket up, so that can't be it.
