First of all , what a wonderfull but glitchy aircraft. the list is growing , but hey…. Its an old aircraft . After spending an hour setting up the plane I called the GSX pusback truck. it pushed me nicely on the baseline but than i got two msfs warnings gear and tire damage. And that was it After discon. the tug the L1011 could no longer move . this is now the second time it happend.Any suggestions other than using the paper FB pushback option?

I was looking at the advertising on the store page for the aircraft. I went ahead and pulled the circuit breakers for the INS 1 and INS 2 power, CAPT HSI, and the following and none of those breakers seem to be connected to their associated system or indicator. Is this intended? What is ini was defining as "complete"? Thanks.

I tried the above workaround but for my system, it seems to only turn off the master power switch, the APU is still running (voltage still present on the meter) What seems to work for me is to hit the apu start switch again and then press the stop switch. After that, the apu spools down and voltage is gone on the meter.

What MSFS2024 command can we use for the Auto throttle disconnect switches for the L-1011? I tried the AUTOTHROTTLE DISCONNECT in 2024 but it doesn't work.

Honestly, probably more realistic this way. Two separate sets of data give two results. The airpseed indicators would rarely be exactly the same.

I'm excited for the 1011. I noticed a couple issues not yet mentioned in other threads. When initially powering the aircraft on the INS MSU the BAT annunciator is illuminated. The light is only illuminated when the INS internal batteries are in use powering the INS system. During normal operation this ight would only be triggered by a loss of AC power to the unit. The BAT lights turn off when AC power is applied to the aircraft ECS With APU Bleed Shutoff closed, Pack flow shows 900CFM. With Shutoff open and pack flow control valves open the needle jumps from 1300 cfm to over 3000 cfm Is it intended that the APU is capable of a triple engine start? When the throttles are placed into the idle reverse detent on my system the external model shows the translating cowl only partially deployed. The flight model also seems to indicate that no significant change in thrust has occurred. Would it also be possible to get a list of command variable for SPAD software users? Thanks!

Fantastic, I appreciate all the responses the team has been giving over the last few days. Wonderful aircraft, you should all be proud of this.

Hello, To increase immersion, I was wondering if we could have an "auto" mode where flight engineer autocomplete checklists are automatically started after a set of user actions. For example here are some ideas: Engine Start: park brake OFF+Beacon light ON+5 seconds After Start: All 3x engines running + 20 seconds Line Up: Strobe lights + LDG lights on Climb: RA above 1500ft AGL Descent: within 150nm of destination, negative V/S, and selected ALT lower than current

I have the same issues and I can't fixe it

Hello, At the moment the Paper Flight Bag and the perf card are emitting light, like a tablet would. Barely noticeable by day but looks out of place by night. See the difference between the "flaps 33" table chart (blends naturally with cockpit lightning) and the landing speed card (weirdly bright) below: Could this emissive light be disabled ? And instead we rely on the beautiful night lightning of this addon to read the PFB and card ?

Yep, even beyond the control units, the sensor used to capture the values themselves have their own inaccuracies, so you never have exactly the same value between same systems:

I just got the L1011 and everytime I set takeoff power the aircraft emits a loud siren style aural warning like an overspeed sound, This occurs at the same time as the Fail Eng 2 arm light appears but I have read that is normal during takeoff. What isn't normal is the aural warning and I have no idea the cause. It happens everytime, when I spawn on the runway, use a panel state and even from cold and dark full setup and taxi to the runway. Any suggestions/assistance is greatly appreciated thanks!

Hi, was your binding set to Rudder Axis or the Nosewheel Steering Axis?

All my other planes (Fenix/PMDG/iniBuilds) are fine and work perfectly the steering and throttle. The Tristar is giving me grief. I need around 50-60% throttle to get the plane moving. When its gets doing and picks up speed over 20knots, I have to back off the throttle a tiny bit and it's enough to decelerate the plane to an eventual stop. It's like the brakes are stuck on (they are not of course). Then comes the steering. I don't really have any. I am using a Virpil joystick with twist feature for the rudder (I don't have pedals). Again it's fine for every other aircraft I own. On the Tristar, when I try to turn a corner when taxiing, it will start to turn then just turnes back and goes straight on. Whe nose wheel is turning too much too fast. But even when I try to be gentle with it, it will begin to steer into corner then the plane loses speed and comes to a stop again. It was impossible and I had to use a 3rd part tool to turn the aircraft on it's axis instead (MDAdjuster). You can see it happenening here.... https://www.youtube.com/live/jK42T1ngxKU?si=NJJ9Iho1Oc8EHEM-&t=6825

v1.1.1 of iniBuilds Manchester (EGCC) for MSFS 2024 has been released. This update fixes some minor terrain issues, some erroneous taxi edge lighting and stop bar lighting and more. This update can be downloaded via the iniManager. v1.1.1 - Fixed terrain issues along the airport south side - Taxi edge light showing on one centreline - Terrain fixes around commercial area - Misplaced stop bar lighting - Changed custom stop lighting so that it no longer shows during the loading map

This one could be a me problem but I'm finding if I have the AT set to TM sometimes I'll disconnect on its own and go back to where my throttles are set. Could this be due to throttle noise? Thanks

I actually solved the issue! I found another forum post for a user with a similar issue - they had mentioned that they tried using a VPN, but that still did not fix the issue - I tried using a VPN anyway, and that actually fixed it for me! Would still love to get some more insight on what might be the root cause for this, given that the OIS loads fine, and other planes, such as the Fenix, also load the entire plan with no issue. Also propagating an error instead of letting this failure just fail silently might help others debug this a lot faster.

I'll pass this along to the team, thank you for the suggestion 🙂

If I start to taxi without touching the brakes, the nose wheel steering works perfectly, but if I apply braking I lose it, and it will not return. This is repeatable it happens every time I apply any braking during Taxi. From external view the nose wheel moves, but doesn't have any directional control. I would love to fly this plane, but I can't get to the runway without steering.

Doing a flight from KSLC to KBWI and just got up to cruise level and got the WASM -

As the title says, I thought it strange that the APU is left on if you are following the AI flight engineer flows in the paper tablet. Because the APU panel is right in front of his face I just assumed that as part of the flow he would turn it off once all power was drawing from the engines, I accidentally left the APU on for most of my first flight and barely had the fuel to make my destination, landed with an engine out.

All times, bar one, the departure button is working in the init page for me. On the one occasion that it failed, a reset of the sim worked. It seems like this is a possible Navigraph issue or a plane issue if it’s consistent.

One example: Selected speed is 250 and your actual speed is 300. In this case the yellow ball must on the „fast“ ( F ) side of the indicator.

That would be very useful, as a lot of us are trying to figure things out. I am seeing that making a switch move doesn't trigger any actions in the plane.

On top of this, engine 2 appears to fail upon takeoff. Once restarted, engine performs as designed. Happened after flap retraction. But I do not think that is related. It happened during a previous departure as well prior to flaps being retracted. https://medal.tv/games/microsoft-flight-simulator-2024/clips/mqmKPqrcm9j28gtUy?invite=cr-MSwxU1ksMTkzNzg2ODc5
