Thanks! I'm based there if you need info or else...

To make it quick and simple, the service ceiling is the maximum altitude at which an aircraft can still maintain a rate of climb of 100 ft/min. You have also the absolute ceiling, which is the altitude where the climb rate becomes 0 ft/min. And finally, you have the operational ceiling altitude limit imposed by certification, systems, or operations (pressurization, oxygen, regulations, etc.). So, you can indeed have an aircraft that is capable of climbing much higher but is limited by its system(s), most of the time the pressurization (how the system is built, how the airframe can handle a bigger differential, how fast can you descent in regards of oxygen (for pax mostly as the oxy for crew is generally more than enough while for the pax it's very limited in time)). So, it's not only what the aircraft can do by itself, it's more of a global picture : powerplant, airframe, system(s), oxygen (passengers limitation mostly), etc... Not talking about the YS-11 in particular, but in general.

KCLT Charlotte would be awsome!

I'd like to know why no developpers are willing to make KCLT Charlotte?! Most of them are just creating airports already available, sometimes we get 2, 3 or even 4 differents version of the same airport from different developpers. However, KCLT is left without almost no scenery. I'm not even talking about FsDreamTeam's KCLT that is VERY old and absolutely inaccurate... And that, despite the fact that it is one of the major hub for American Airlines! Something to think about Inibuild??

Thanks a lot for the details!! I hope so that there will be more updates as it is half baked at this stage...

After a quick test, the only noticeable fix is the propellers not feathering anymore when shuting down. Spool down time is way too fast though, they should take exemple of the freeware Fokker 27...

That's what I thought, the Inibuild YS-11 perfomances are too optimistic. As I said on another post, 2200 to 2500 ft/min in the climb at max gross weight is way too high. Thanks for bringing that up.

Do you know where I can find details of today's update 0.0.31 ? (Steam Marketplace MSFS 2020). Doesn't seems to be posted anywhere...

AUX FUEL quantities are off between left and right aux, by a 1000 lbs.

- Taxi behavior is a bit weird, slow taxi on its own initially, then need power and at this point it's either all or nothing, should be more linear. - Initial climb/low altitude performances are too high, should be around 1500ft/min at max gross, I have over 2000/2200 ft/min. Should be more linear as well. - Control lock should be set when loading cold and dark. - ITT reaction is too slow.

Oh ok, I know what you mean. In some weight/altitude it might cruise nose down indeed, it's just that at max gross I really doubt it. But yes, plausible.

I don't know any aircraft that cruise at that negative pitch at max gross weight in normal cruise mode (empty ok, not at max gross). I might agree at around 0, but -3deg ?! If you have 1 exemple I would like to know which one...

Cruise at around 3deg nose down. Need to be corrected.

Yep, you're right, just restarted the sim and it's working now. Look like it corrected itself...

I agree on all those above reported bugs. Also, in 2020, the starting/starter logic is bugged. The starter butten doesn't remain engage, have to constantly press keyboard key to keep starter engaged. Also the engines refuse to light up with the levers in the ON position, only if it's full forward. A lot of obvious bugs that should have been very quickly identified and corrected in beta testing...
