  1. I'll try to remember the next time I see it, yes. In the meanwhile, it's the text in the DME readout area - it looks like a Z-fighting issue, where multiple layers of numbers are trying to be rendered at the same time.

    Go-around issues

    Maybe, but it's been so long now I don't remember. 😄 But I've made a mental note to keep an eye out for problems with this in the future.
  3. When starting a new flight from your typical parking spot, there is typically an excess of ground service equipment around the plane - 2 GPUs (the one that spawns by default with the plane, plus the one that is part of the airport scenery), etc. If the player is using GSX, it would be nice if these "extra" pieces of equipment would be culled out somehow so there isn't this cluttered mess when I start a new flight.
  4. The other problem with this is that when I look for an available parking spot, all spaces are listed as too small. So, while I've disabled the message from appearing, this other problem remains.
  5. After I activated my secondary flight plan and reactivated NAV mode, the FMC went into Manual mode when we reached our next waypoint. I had to input a Direct To Waypoint procedure to get us back on course. Is that how it should be?
  6. In both aircraft.cfg files, there is a typo in the following line: icao_manufacturer ="Aibus"
  7. I've noticed the following buttons have no associated sound with them: Glideslope warning test (just to the right of the captain's altimeter) The VHF 1-4 buttons on the pedestal
  8. I've noticed in some videos that some people have inHg on their EFB takeoff performance page, while I cannot get it to change from HPA to inHG via the Settings screen. Is this issue still being investigated?
  9. When landing at KMEM on runway 27, I received no DME signal from the ground. The frequency is supposed to be 108.7, course 273 degrees. Could someone check and see if it is working properly or if something is indeed wrong with it?
  10. I have had at least nine CTDs in a row tonight trying to load the freighter version. This is beyond frustrating:
  11. In the manuals I have read, there is a mention of using the DCEL mode on the Flight Plan page to slow the aircraft down to green dot speed if it has passed the TOD marker but descent clearance has not yet been given. However, I do not see this function available:
  12. Update: nope, it was me. 😄 All is working properly now!
  13. Yep, it looks like an AAO problem, as the default keyboard bindings work fine. 😞
  14. Yes, I understand all that. My gear lever is a 3-position type, and what's happening is that when I move it to the Gear Up position (with AAO, yes), the gear retracts, but the animation of the lever only goes to the neutral position. I wasn't seeing this before the last update, so it makes me wonder if there is a bug here.
  15. When retracting the landing gear during takeoff, the gear retracts, but it looks like the lever is physically not moving from the down position to the up position - it just moves to the neutral position, even though the gear is retracted. This is with a Virpil control panel landing gear lever.
  16. From what I have read and have seen in my experience, the tire wear rate is exaggerated right now. After about 10(!) landings my tires were already in the red zone, and it's not as if I'd had any hard landings in that process. Perhaps with "normal" usage the tires should be in the green up to about 33 landings, yellow after 66, and red after 100?
  17. Looking at the tires on my plane today, I noticed the lettering and numbering are reversed: .
  18. Yes, but there are jumpseats that can be filled.
  19. In the passenger section for the A30F on Simbrief, the options are Auto, None, and Full (0). Why does that last option say Zero for a full load?
  20. When receiving taxi information, altitude assignments, transponder info, etc, it would be cool to have a virtual notepad we could bring up to write down that information.
  21. On a related note, what effect(s) do worn tires have on the plane's performance? Braking efficiency?
  22. As the subject heading says: when attempting to park at the NE parking area, all 4 positions are marked as "too small" for the A300. Beyond that, there are a lot of other places at the airport marked as too small by GSX that probably can fit the A300 just fine. Related to the first issue - when unloading cargo at NE parking, the unloading process gets stuck at 67%.
  23. In the DHL parking area, there are some floating containers:

    Go-around issues

    Also, to add: what finally worked to get the thing out of the climb was to disengage auto-throttle. Only then did the plane start descending like I wanted it to.

    Go-around issues

    @Nico - Gumby, I take that back - I am trying an approach into KMEM right now, and the damn plane won't descend properly to the approach and is now climbing instead of descending. Something is seriously screwed up - no matter if try level change, vertical speed, etc, it's stuck in a climb.
