Trying to determine how the date/time in the FMC is determined/obtained/updated. I know how to update the values on the timer in the aircraft, but not clear on how to update this in the FMC. I know it can be updated on actual aircraft in the Proline, but it gives a message that updates are N/A (not allowed?) when I try something like 29JUN22. Thanks for any guidance.

After the pre–landing checklist, on final approach I often get the two A/SKID messages (see below). Anti Skid is armed. What could be the cause of this warning?

I'm having no issues with ATS, although there were a few critical learnings that are mostly documented in the forum fyi: Combinations of Cowl anti-icing and other things, at higher outside air temps will cause ATS to shut down as there are no N1 target values in that lower right area of the cross reference table that ATS uses for max N1. Testing thrust reversers (checklist) does not cause ATS Fail with 1.6.1. Learning speeds for approaches such as not to go below a speed at which ATS will shut down (as designed) Ensuring that the takeoff N1 is showing on the PERF page ... the other N1 values will fill as a result of first officer actions w/ after takeoff checklist. Also, it has been documented about having to remove the flight director in order to reset ATS on. Sorry not more help, these have been the ATS keys for me. Kirk

Not necessary; the new airframe (which was mentioned in the release notes) solved this. All is ok. Thanks.

Thrustmaster pendulum rudder pedals (MacOS), standard response curve for toe brakes (and rudders). With 1.6.1, I notice when finished taxiing to the runway that full toe brakes results in a show roll, I have to release and re-press and then it slows and finally stops. This is from a slow taxi, after final turn before entering runway. This was not an issue prior to this version. Hydraulics are ok (other than the strange values that were displaying that I reported last week). Braking works ok after touchdown, and initially when starting to move after pre-taxi checklist (test nose wheel and brakes). Anyone else observed this? Any guidance on it? Kirk

The issue with the display or huge values on the hydraulic synoptic page continues. After starting the engines I find that the bottom figure (see video posted earlier) is now adjusted to an expected value, but the upper value remains in error. I'm posting 3 progressive images. You mentioned to post a log. Assuming this is the log for XP11 as I don't see a log in the CL650 folder. Duely posted. Kirk Log.txt

Running through the cockpit checklists on a fresh install for the update, I noticed very high values on the hydraulics synoptics page (before engine start). I have created a very short video that shows this at the following link.

MacOS 12.4 Mac Studio M1 Ultra 64GB XP11.55 Peripherals MySimGear G1000 suite; Honeycomb Yoke and Throttle Quadrant; Thrustmaster pendulum rudders Start XP, Enter CL650 via Resume Last Flight, start from saved state (just before starting engines). Quit to XP main menu, then quit XP and then the XP crash is observed. This does not occur with any other aircraft; thus, reporting it here initially, to see if this matches any known scenarios. Crash report, log.txt uploaded. Please advise what additional information I can provide. Regardless of this issue, I am very pleased and am learning a LOT with the CL650. Fantastic product.

Sorry, just a matter of going into the Airframe manager. My miss. Thanks again for your help.

How do I save the state after loading into the plane? I reviewed the options from the 650 menu once in the aircraft but did not see anything there. Is there somewhere I missed in terms of the docs where this is covered (states, airframes)? Really appreciate your inputs on this. Kirk

The screen shows immediately after choosing Resume Last Flight. The log.txt is attached. Log.txt

XPlane 11, MacOS, Challenger 650 Career Mode, resume last flight, type in new state name but Save button does not activate. Tried simple short names. See image, after I entered the state name. The Save button does highlight on mouse-hover, but clicking it does not result in the named state showing up in the list, even after restart. Is there an executable I need to give disk access on MacOS for this to work? What are the details around saving a state, and where are these stored? Thanks for any guidance, love the Challenger 650.
