Hello everyone, FS2020/24 simmers, modelers, FS2024 pilots (in real life or otherwise), aircraft designers (in sim or real life), the entire team that manages this forum, etc., etc., etc.
I’ve known FS since its early days, back when Windows didn’t exist yet and commands were done in DOS, 640 KB of RAM, a 16-color screen, Chicago? It was just three lines: black, blue, gray, and green. Anyway, I remember a time when I spent my nights listening to Phil Collins and dreaming of flying on my small screen. I’ve loved FS since its beginnings and I still see its full potential, just like I did at the very start. I dreamed of it, others have done it, fantastic!! If you need ideas to improve FS, I have tons. I’ve presented some that the FS teams loved and keep asking for more. I’m only just starting out, which might surprise you, by now getting into the A320. It’s complicated to fully understand how an A320 works, but that’s part of the fun when you’re passionate about something. Since 8:30 am this morning, I’ve been learning about the MCDU (it’s 2:00 pm on my computer as I write this). There’s one thing I don’t understand. How is it that the MCDU concept has practically existed for half a century?! It’s a fantastic aircraft, that’s clear, but the interaction reminds me of Minitel in France; the ergonomics are completely archaic. Now that touchscreens exist, developers will have no trouble creating one with ease of use, an onboard safety system, AI, and so on. Furthermore, the A320 cockpit is magnificent, but so much wasted space: the pedestal, the sides, the front, the center panel, and so on. We could easily have several safety screens for this new MCDU in case of failure, etc. In short, it might be time to upgrade this, don’t you think?

Bonjour à tous, simmers de fs2020/24, modeleur, pilote de fs2024 ou dans la vraie vie, concepteur d’avion en sim ou en vrai, à toute l’équipe qui gère ce forum, etc, etc, etc.
Je connais FS depuis ses débuts ou windows n’existait pas encore et les commandes se faisaient sous DOS, 640 ko de ram, ecran 16 couleurs, Chicago? c’était 3 traits, noir, bleu gris et vert. Bref je me souviens d’un temps où je passais mes nuits sur une music de Phil Collins et je rêvais de voler sur mon petit écran. J’adore FS depuis ces débuts et j’en vois encore comme au tout début tout le potentiel de ce FS. J’en ai rêvé, d’autres l’ont fait, génial !! Si vous avez besoin d’idée pour faire évoluer FS, j’en ai à la pelle. J’en ai présenté certaines et que les équipes de FS ont adoré et en redemande encore. Je commence que maintenant qui à vous surprendre que mainenant à débuter avec l’A320. C’es compliqué pour bien comprendre fonctionne un A320 mais la difficulté fait parti du jeu quand on est passionné de quelque chose. Depuis ce matin 8h30 am je suis en train d’apprendre le MCDU (il est 14h00 pm sur mon pc qd j’écris ces lignes). Je ne comprends pas un truc. Comment se fait t-il que pratiquement le concept MCDU existe depuis un demi siècle ???.. C’est un appareil génial, c’est clair mais l’interaction, çà me rappelle le minitel en France, c’est complément archaique comme ergonomie à l’heure où les écrans tactiles existent, les developpeurs n’auront aucun mal à en créer un avec une simplicité de fonctionnement, système de sécurité embarqué, IA, etc, etc,. De plus le cockpit du A320 est magnifique mais alors que d’espace perdu, piedestal, les côtés, devant, panneau central, etc, etc. On pourrait trés bien plusieurs écrans de sécurité pour ce nouveau MCDU en cas de panne, etc. Bref, il est peut être temps de faire évoluer çà, vous ne trouvez pas ?
Hi everyone! Just joined this community to report a bug I found, but I can’t find a way to open a new thread in the bug reporting hub…not a great start 
Until they give you some or other trusted status you might find it difficult.
Hi @Chiotas and welcome to the forums!
