I use the Timer on the G1000 for that, nothing like a blinking clock to remind you. The other option being to just switch it at each tick mark on the fuel gauge.

I change tanks every 30 mins. A tip I got was if the minutes on a clock-face are on the right (i.e. 00-30) use right tank. When the āminute handā crosses 31 to 60 I should be on the left tank.

I mostly use the copilot to judge VR camera position.
There have been times Iāve scared myself in VR by not realizing the copilot was there.

I only fly 2D, but might feel differently if I was doing VR.
When you forget itās really startling to see a full-sized person sitting next to you!
Isnāt it remarkable how obvious good ideas are once somebody tells you about them after you havenāt thought of it yourself over many years of flying? Well, actually it isnāt just limited to flying: applies to life in general.
OK, nothing is perfect: the only time I ever ran a tank dry in real life was in a Cherokee 6ā¦ and that had two tanks per side! Would have had to expand on this concept.
I drive a plugin hybrid Jeep and it is the only vehicle I ever ran dry! The majority of my driving is full electric, so I just kind of forgot about the gasoline.
Yes I saw that, and I use it at the end. Thanks
Enjoying the mod for some time now. However, Does the G36 have altitude change alerts/chimes? If so, Iām not getting them. Thx.
Do you mean the (rather quiet) chime as you are approaching your selected altitude with autopilot?
Seems to work okay for me. Maybe check your sound settings in Options in case itās been turned down or off.
the nws on this aircraft isnāt very responsive after you land and slowdown - how do I correct this?
Itāll be interesting to see what gets improved in FS24. Itāll have opening doors for sure. Hopefully some of the wishlist here got addressed.
Not unless the dev updates it! It should still work okay though.
Canāt remember if thereā a G36 in the list of MSFS2024 aircraft, that may have opening doors.
FS2024 has all the 2020 planes. So there will be a G36, and theyāve said all the planes will be updated to 2024 standard.

The 2020 G36 with this improvement mod is still my favourite in the sim and the aircraft I fly the most. The mod includes things that the base aircraft does not, so even if MS/Asobo add some bells and whistles, I fear it still wonāt be the equal of this mod. @CaptMatto : if the ānewā 2024 G36 is still lacking, would you guys be prepared to look at what - if anything - would be needed to ensure the mod works in 2024?

Iāve had a hectic few years and sadly not had time to do much of anything with the mod; but I am very excited about 2024!
The possibilities the new SIM brings are really exciting.
That being said Iād like to have a crack at making some changes once the sim launches, but canāt do it just by myself. The original team had a few of us making tweaks and doing things, ideally Iād like to pull together a small team to help.
Any takers?

Very glad to hear this! And apologies but, other than moral support, my skillset is not up to helping with the mod itself.

o/ Still here to help on that one : my modifications wonāt be usefull after 2024 I guess : weāll probably have doors, sun visors, cargo, passengers, efbā¦
I havenāt started to look at native 2024 development but from what Iāve seen, itās way more complicated than 2020; I plan to wait a little as Iām not sure my computer will be powerfull enough.

Hi All
I just wanted to touch base and say hi to this friendlier side of the forum 
Like some, Iām having issues with 2024, but I did manage to get the G36 loaded. There is definitely some logic and things that need changing, but I only managed to glance on the tarmac and get the thing started before giving up due to sound issues and massive lag.
Please note this is NOT a discussion about the state of the sim but I wanted to start seeing what the community identifies as issues with the aircraft.
Iām not sure yet what we can change, but letās start getting a list together.
Looking forward to getting back into it!

Things Iāve seen so far.
- Clickspot for the yoke stops you from being able to switch the lights on/off
- Copilot leg clips through the middle console
- Electric system order for systems incorrect
- No 3d tablet
(that I could find)
I have yet to fly it, but my SIM does look more stable at the moment, I need to get everything configured again before Iām able to load in.
For interest, using the most up-to-date DLSS has made my performance better!
