Missed chances
The freeware F-27 available on flightsim.to is maybe a bit less appealing visually, but much more evolved system wise and the flight envelop is way much better. It's free and better, cannot go wrong here...

Weather Radar issue and Others in MSFS 2020
Same for me.
-
Passenger door not opening in full
The main door stop about halfway through when opening it. No issue when closing.

Max takeoff weight is off
The Fokker 27 Max takeoff weight should be between 43500 and 45000 depending the model/serial. Not 40500.

Propellers animation
Propellers animation is totally ugly, we should see a disk not turning blurry blades.

Overall performances are way off
The Fokker F27-500 climb profile is 138 IAS and 14200 RPM. However, at this speed and power settings it cannot even hold altitude at 3000ft (fuel trim is at 100% though), thus climb profile is way off of what it should be... Also, at max power and straight & level flight at 3000ft it can barely reach 180 IAS. Again, way off... Same for approach, way off. 14000 rpm to barely hold the approach speed with an empty aircraft is totally wrong. At "inibuild" max gross weight (way below what it should be) it cannot even maintain 3.0 glide at 115 IAS. Also, the elevator lack authority/effectiveness. Hey guys at Inibuild, next time before publishing an aircraft, make sure to beta test it! I'm tired of being a "paying-beta-tester" and having to wait forever to have patches and updates (still waiting updates for A310, A300, YS-11...). 20$ wasted, last airplane I'm buying from you... By the way, the freeware F27 on flightsim.to is maybe a bit less appealing visually, but way more interesting to fly with proper systems...

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

What is reason for service ceiling? NAMC YS-11 and others
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.

Airport development request
KCLT Charlotte would be awsome!

KCLT Charlotte
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??

Today's update 0.0.31 ?
Thanks a lot for the details!! I hope so that there will be more updates as it is half baked at this stage...
-
Today's update 0.0.31 ?
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...

Performance related anecdote from a former pilot
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.

Today's update 0.0.31 ?
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...
