Same here. I also wonder about the ALT /VS and the lights nearby them

This plane is riddled with bugs and has been since November. Lots and lots of bugs, but because it’s not in career mode there is no rush to fix it. They are focusing on career mode planes, one at a time. It’s a real shame almost all aircraft from 2020 is actually worse in 2024

@Kulch, I couldn’t agree more. And to not have the 747 in a career path shows a real lack of sense. I understand the passenger version is about done (not completely), but IRL the freight version is the backbone of the heavy haul civilian air cargo fleet. Asobo was astonished that more people are in career mode than free flight. When they actually take their airliners seriously, like the 747, I think things may be different. I have nothing against the career mode, but neither do I have any interest in it.

I’m hoping Asobo add it in eventually. Not having the jumbo queen of the Skies in career mode is an oversight. Whether it be for cargo or passenger it’s still the most recognisable aircraft on earth. Asobo chose the dreamlifter instead, so I’m hoping it’s a quick fix to have the normal 747 in career mode as they are essentially the same plane.
Or fingers crossed 3rd party planes can career mode and PMDG 747 fleet make it. Otherwise career mode will never reach it’s full potential for airliners. These aircraft are the pinnacle of airliner

I wonder if this bug will be reported and logged because my previous reports have not been…
