Either one of you aeronautical engineers, I know I'm not, so where do you get off with dogmatic assertions about what "should" be the behavior? I have a sim that predicts how much fuel is needed in a flight, and you know, that amount seems to work, I arrive at my destination. And I have a sim that predicts what TOD is, and when I descend there, and have the flight computer control it, you know what, I arrive at the IAF to my approach at the correct altitude. To this amatuer that means its working pretty well. I have no interest in further debate on the matter...

"Managed" descent means it is calcuating a veritical path, not that it is following some fixed throttle behavior, if you initiate descent early it will follow a shallower path, the small green dot on the altitude tape shows that it is above/below/on that path. Behavior has seemed correct in my flights.

Its you guys, the speed display works as does the autopilot... I've flown two long hauls in the last two days without issue. You both say you are taking the covers off but this SURE sounds like you haven't, are you absolutely sure?? These are the covers way up right on the nose right? If you don't get an update to the speed tape on the take-off roll, then that's why... Hope you solve it!

I'm pretty sure this has only started happening with 1.0.7 but am not sure, but in my last couple flights the plane wouldn't actually touch down for half the runway 😞 It's completely hands off so it's not like I am doing something different. Can Inibuild tell me if anything might have changed to cause this, or for that matter anyone else that can confirm they see it as well? My VA likes to "grade" landings and keeps severly dinging me on this 😞 Anything I can do to "fix" it perhaps?? Cheers guys, Jack

Plane just wasn't satisfied saying it only twice 🤣

I suggest you either study the manual, or go find one of the many videos on the boobtube and watch that, this is a VERY complex plane, if you wanted to jump into something on the runway, push the trottle and go you picked the wrong thing to fly. BTW, Beta is over, you should have the production version now, but I don't know that's your problem, I never had problems with Beta either. Maybe update the sim, and then uninstall/reinstall the plane from the Inibuild Manager. Good luck!

Ah, I guess you selected the no-has-wheels option 🙃 OK, seriously now, do your other planes have wheels? Do you mean in the world after it spawned or in the menu display? Really guys, how would you like to solve a problem with only this much information, do you think you could do it? Problem/bug reports need DETAIL, otherwise how can anyone hope to figure it out??

Simple flow, and it works for me every time, so find what you are doing differently: Start at cruise, whatever it is right, then adjust altitude setting to something lower, in many cases I just set it all the way to my ILS capture point. Watch your flight display, look for the TOD symbol, when you are oh 10 miles before it, but the exact amount doesn't matter, however what does matter is you're BEFORE it, now position cursor over altitude knob so you see an UP arrow, left click mouse. That's it. It may not be an instant response, but it will start descent. Remember - up arrow is push to computer, down arrow is pull to pilot. So, you push, and now flight computer controls descent, it will not only start descent but it will adjust it and respect constraints on the RNAV descent path you might be on. I updated the plane, the sim, they are the latest, and I just did a flight this morning, it works.

I'd vote for having it completely user selectable as well, but having it being consistent when you do decide 🙂

Do a google search for "A350 ULR", you'll find that there are significant modifications to the standard plane, and we don't have that model, so it's no big surprise you cant make the range.

Wow, you're WAY more patient than me, I would've declared the sim hung long before that, LOL... Errr, did you check your sim version, what does it display? Assume you did the clean WASM procedure?

LOL, man that's the hard way of doing things 😁 Just use the OIS, flight ops, and push the SimBrief button there...

I would not try to enter a plan manually, first get the automatic case to work 🙂

So, speaking of "again and again", I've loaded and imported flight plans again and again. Always works. That means either you are missing a step, or something in your setup is causing a weird problem. What about removing anything in Community you might have added?

You dont need to do it "again and again", using the Navigraph hub, its either uptodate or it isn't...
