HotStart, in my opinion, has produced aircraft of the absolute highest quality, bar none (I've never owned a PDMG aircraft). So much so that I sorta wanted to hangout around their website, read their blogs, and find out who these folks are. I've not be able to find such a site. Perhaps, I've been looking in the wrong place or HotStart is too busy developing to create a site. If the former is the case, then I hope someone will point me in the right direction, otherwise; I can't wait to see what's next. I recently discovered Cameron's blog and I really enjoy them. There are written in such a way, that even a dull knife soul, like me, can understand. He explains technical concepts really well. I still can't quite figure out if he's a developer - guess I got some more reading to do. -- VirtualGAa

I have to say, we're on the same page. I too spend most of my simming time in the cockpit. At least 90%, if not more. I also fly GA aircraft exclusively so this plane is right down my alley. I am looking forward to climbing into the left seat and to posting videos of my flight experience on my YouTube Channel. Thanks for the development updates. --Frank

I got the DA50 RG and it makes my 5th plane from Aerobask. Their work seems to get better with each new aircraft they release. The DA50 is a wonderfully modeled aircraft both inside and out. There is little to dislike about the aircraft and much to love. It ought to be in every general aviation pilot's virtual hanger. https://youtu.be/LEYpBYYvSOw

I don't want to join the XP versus MSFS debate, but I fly XP almost exclusively. But what does it matter, both sims have their place? I've got to say that the image of the cockpit looks like a photograph. I'm one of the simmers who spend 95% of the time in the cockpit - I suppose real-life pilots do too. Anyhoo, I do appreciate the occasional exterior view just to admire and take in the whole scene, what an experience! I am looking forward to getting my hands on the MU-2B for the first time. One of the best parts of flight simming is getting to know an airplane, intimately. I hope you, Cameron, will go deep in the systems modeling. Thanks for the narrative and previews.

PLEASE DISREGARD THE QUESTION BELOW. I'm not sure if I'm posting this query in the correct forum. Here goes... I'm noticing that some of the updates to FS Global Real Weather (Ver. 1.7 bld #701) is providing metar information a couple hours behind real world metars. For instance, the Zula time in the product states the metar time as 21:21Z. Current Metar is 20:15Z May I ask where the product is acquiring the metar data?

I too, am trying to solve the issue with the GTN 750. I downloaded the patch but am unsure where to put the files. Should they go into the aircraft folder "TorqueSim SR22 Entegra"? I've placed the folder/files where I think they should as hi-lighted in the the attachment. TIA

After checking out the SR22 Entegra Avionics series, I believe that Torquesim is uniquely positioned to create the Honeywell Primus Apex Avionics Suite. I hope they'll give this suggestion seriously thought energy.

Feature Request: Database of downloadable Preset weather files - CAVOK VFR IMC Foggy Low Clouds Stormy etc (If this already exist, it isn't generally known)

So the answer is yes. There are benefits to FSGRW that's not available from the Real World Connector. Now I know to set up my injector and change my settings to the injector. Thanks.

I purchased Skymaxx, FSGRW (FS Global Real Weather), and the Real Weather Connector at the same time. Now I'm questioning the wisdom of buying all 3 products. It seems to me that FSGRW is completely unneeded as Skymaxx can pull metars directly without having to have the weather injector software (FSGWR) [see uploaded image]. Can anyone tell me why I might need FSGRW? Is there some added benefit other than being able to see a text metar for any airport on demand or being able to import historical weather data? X-plane allows one to customize any weather pattern including historical data as long as the weather parameters are known. Is there any real use to FSGRW that I am yet to discover? '

Kaden, your post is timely. I've been having a similar problem after installing the recommended CSL files. I'm planning to get some help today from another flight simmer. If I learn anything that can help, I'll let you know. BTW: Welcome to X-Plane and Vatsim. It's a wonderful community.

I'm not sure this is the correct forum to ask in; X-Aviation linked me here from its forum link. Does anyone know if I can use my X-Aviation license own 2 instances of X-Plane on the same computer, but different drives? I made a copy of X-plane for Vulcan and X-Aviation is prompting for my license info for the 2nd copy. I don't want to negate my license on my production copy. Thanks,
