Wow! Who knew? Well, you did, clearly...! I wonder if they've somehow added more fuselage fuel storage - or if they just limit it to 45-minute flights. Looks good, though.

Agree! Really grateful for the EFB tuning hack as it stands. Thanks for listening! But it'd help even more if they included ILS frequences and were sorted or at least clearly labeled.

A clean version would be a P-80. Different airplane. All T-33s have tip tanks. The fuselage tank was reduced to make room for the second seat, so without the tip tanks there wouldn’t be nearly enough fuel. It’s how they came from the showroom.

@Tim-HH and @richboy2307 - I think it would help a lot to know which engine is being modeled. If Greg Collyer's aircraft is the basis for the performance numbers (as it should be - it's the one that iniBuilds researched) - then the engine in the sim aircraft isn't an Allison J-33, it's a Rolls Royce Nene Mk. 10. Like many (most?) of the T-33s currently flying, Ace Maker is a Canadair license-built T-133 with a Rolls Royce engine. John Terrell (aka Bomber12th, aka JohnnyT5000) pointed out in the MSFS forums that the start-up procedures and the performance seem correct for an RR Nene. At 2:55 in this video, Ken Pacholski, at the time the owner of N133KK, describes the RR Nene in his aircraft as "more powerful, much more powerful" than the original Allison. If all that is in fact the case, it'd be good if iniBuilds could specify the engine in the documentation. @Dudley Henriques - I've been using that procedure in the T-33 (and in other early jets like the F-86 and the Fouga Magister) and it works well. I think I must have learned if from you along the way. Thanks!

@richboy2307 - Glad to know you're looking at these and other fixes - I'm enjoying the T-33 but hoping you can sand off some of the rough spots I'm not sure if this is the right place to post a request - am still trying to figure out how to navigate your forums - but would you consider a quality-of-life fix for tuning the nav radios in the classic cockpit? The three-part dial at the bottom of the center pedestal is period-correct but pretty much impossible to tune while in flight - in its current form it effectively rules out VOR-VOR navigation. Maybe a tuning option on the EFB so we can keep our eyes on the road, so to speak? Thanks for considering. And please feel free to move this if it's in the wrong place.
