I suspect if you select the Cessna before selecting your departure location (Hamburg), on the world map planner, the sim should start at your desired location.

• I have the same issue on Win 10 PC w/ NVidia. Once in first game after installation (=no mods) selected take-off airport and plane. When selecting in a new game another plane or airport →
plane: the plane never changes
airport: on the world map, it zooms back to first airport, then shows the plane at the runway of the first airport, after pressing “start flight” we are suddenly at the new airport (always at real time, independly from what you selected) with the plane OVER the runway (~x0 ft) and the plane falls from a certain height on the runway.

• Just as an idea, because it was an issue in other programs as well: I have a windows user account name using special (German) characters. Could this have an influence?

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

This was a known issue in MSFS2020,so it’s probable that it is in FS 2024 as well.
