I know there is an old thread on this aircraft so after immense frustration I thought I’d initiate a current one. To that end, here are the issues I’ve come across since acquiring this plane in career mode:
- Aircraft (unlike every other) always starts off with a canvas on it and engine/pitot covers.
Unfortunately this canvas stays on even if you Alt-N to taxi.
- If you don’t remove the tie-downs (even though you don’t get the objective prompts), I’ve had the plane literally fly through the air with tiedowns attached still.
- The plane has an ugly, patchwork, gray-brown blotchy livery even when brand new.
- The career mission flight plans are missing departures or destinations. I’m not even talking about within the FMS, I’m talking in the EFB. How is this possible? That means you can’t even program them manually because we all know that if you try do something that isn’t allowable in the EFB, you can’t do it or you get dinged or you can’t complete the mission. Even though the missions map says the correct departing and arriving airports, this is missing in the flight plan(?)
-
The Collins system won’t allow you to activate the approach with APPR unless you press the button 3 times. It will arm the GP but not the LNV component.
-
A significant number of FMS features are inactive in the Collins simulator.
- When you alt-N to skip to taxi, the plane starts towing the client’s delivery vehicle.

If there are solutions to any of these let me know as I have searched Google and this forum. Also, feel free to add to this list. Thanks everyone.
