[MSFS2024] Cessna Citation Longitude

guys, let’s fire that thread up with all you’ve got:

https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/cessna-citation-longitude-no-landing-taxi-lights/684483

There is something clearly going on behind the scenes that has produced this abomination of a sim. I know Microsoft Games layoffs happened last fall. I mean this is just barely barebones fixes, so disappointing

Unfortunately not. The lights issue is a problem in the sim itself that is corrupting the correct lights CFG present in the plane files when loaded.

The issue has been logged and my understanding is the team is working to find the cause of the problem.

…so not a single person, not one, flew the Longitude before the final code was sent to be launched, and noticed this?

It took the community 3 minutes to notice this.

The game, et al, are rubbish.

the funny/sad thing is I paid the premium deluxe edition just because of this plane, THB and its broke. Cmon @asobo get your 💩 together and at least deliver the deluxe content in a working state. We actually paid money for it, so hold up to your end of the transaction!.

Love it but wish there was a way to completely disable the autothrottle tho …

there is, AT button in on the throttle (lower)

I tried the Auto Throttle Disconnect.
It works.
But the AT comes back on.

I have LOC armed and coming down, throttle at min, trying to get the
glide slope to arm and the AT kicks in and goes to max.
The Longitude lifts right up above the glide slope.

I think of AT as being like AP. Turn it on and it controls.
Maybe it is more defensive. It kicks in when the system thinks it is needed.

@Bishop398’s advice has me starting to think this way.

I just tried an ILS. Trying to drop altitude with throttle at min and twice
hit around 120 knots and the AT kicked in.

Stayed on GS but came in too fast.

So, I’m trying to improve my piloting. Maybe VNAV.

Note:
Its good that now, the flaps are working.
Shooting for a Vref of 98 knots with full flaps.

Just started flying this plane and it seems like a good one! However, I can’t seem to get the “Fine” control (push) to work when trying to set the altitude in the FMS. Can someone help me with this?

Right click the ALT knob for 100s.

Oh, you said FMS.
I don’t set it there.

That will work, thank you!

Sporadically Nav data missing (waypoints, jetway exits) , AP not intercepting flight plan leg in nav mode. Nav mode not always selectable.

Yes but it just keeps re-enabling when it thinks it should kick in again …

May this be a feature and not a bug?

An airspeed protection a la Airbus?

The LOD is completely terrible, the slightest zoom out the aircraft turns to odd shapes and looks awful.

could you please post some pics, cause IMHO Longitude is magnificently rendered .

The square engine is a popular one.

Lighting Function INOP, SEC Trim Button is Amber in OFF, should be Cyan in OFF and Amber in ON, Gravity XFlow Button is Amber in Closed, should be Cyan in Closed and Amber in Open, Pitch/Roll Disconnect Handle should be in Normal. The Swift Broadband Antenna should be flat and not the bulging Antenna, we changed that many years ago with the new improved Antennas. There are a few other items, but start with those.

at a certain distance stuff even pokes through the hull… and further out the cabin door vanishes.
