Hello. I can't do engine maintenance because it says the engine covers are in place. 🤷‍♂️ Of coarse, this is not in EFB for compatible version, so I got around it by changing LVAR:INI_COVERS_ENABLED to = 0 While on this subject, I vote to get rid of engine covers on Premium version, in my opinion it's a gimmick. I can understand in General Aviation but you never see engine covers on airliners at a gate or ramp. At least make it an option to not have them in place when initiating a flight in cold/dark cockpit.

OK I found a work-around, so this is definitely a bug by the EFB not saving the buffer and not the actual plane. Since these values are different from other users, I'll outline the steps until developers fix this bug. What I did is used ChatGPT (other AI tools will probably do the same thing) to do the hard work for me, so it's super easy. Tell ChatGPT: "I need you to modify all of the "_min" and "_max" values. For each set, make values 0.2 further apart:" Open ThrottleData.ini from Steam: %APPDATA%\Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024\WASM\MSFS2024\microsoft-aircraft-a330\work MS Store: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\WASM\MSFS2024\microsoft-aircraft-a330\work Copy and paste it's entire contents of that file into ChatGPT and it should provide you with the edited results. Copy and paste the results back intoThrottleData.ini, save and restart sim. Hope this helps others, as it was a pain to catch the detents properly. Now it's super easy. I am using HC Bravo throttles.

I am not sure that changing buffer calibration is working. Even if I set those % numbers to extremely high percent, I see that hitting the detents is extremely small and any deviation from that exact point takes it out of detent. A good way to reproduce this is by loading ThrottleData.ini into Notepad++. Leave your throttle in idle and hit "Set IDLE" with a specific buffer. Notice the idle_min and idle_max values in the ini file. Now change the value in the idle buffer and Set IDLE on EFB again. Notepad++ says the file has been updated. Now note the values in the ini file have not changed from the last time, even though you set a different buffer value in the EFB.

It gave the A300-600 freighter an even more modern glass avionics and thanks to that we will keep seeing them in the sky for at least another decade. Hopefully the Epic avionics add-on from inibuilds comes with P&W engines or else it would be half baked especially since all of UPS A300 planes use that engine. 😉

Other operators besides the big three current cargo operators that I was able to confirm that had / have PW engines. There might be more: Afriqiyah Airways China Airlines EgyptAir Cargo Korean Air Lines Mahan Air MNG Airlines Meraj Airlines Mahan Air Qatar Airways Qatar Airways Cargo Qeshm Airlines Saudi Arabian Airlines San Marino Executive Aviation Solinair State of Kuwait

Very good news, but why not add PW engines? DHL and UPS uses PW not GE. 🤷‍♂️

Great. I've updated navigraph and now it does not crash to desktop! I usually update AIRAC once in a while to save on the monthly fee since I don't fly online. Hopefully going forward it it won't be a requirement to have the AIRAC updated continuously. Thank you for the quick support!

Thanks. My AIRAC is 2205 so it is a bit old. I will resub to get latest and I'll report back.

Greetings. I can reproduce this bug 100% of the time, which unfortunately for me, makes the A310 unflyable. Basically, right after I enter the departure and destination into the INIT page, as soon as I hit the button on the MCDU, I crash to desktop instantly. I've provided a video which shows step by step. Let me know if there are any logs which can be helpful and where to find them. The only things in my community folder besides some add on planes (PMDG, Fenix, etc) and scenery is: GSX, fsltl and FSrealistic. I have not installed the A310 enhanced package.
