I planned to fly the Fennec to the Airbus Center Hamburg-Finkenwerder to repair a well-known cargo room heating problem the whole Discord is making fun of…
But I was too late when plugging in the HOTAS, plugging it in while the sim was already launching led to a bug with all controls being disabled, keyboard and HOTAS. I noticed that a bit too late… after half an hour when the whole Airbus flight was pre-programmed and ready, when the parking brake did not release because not the keyboard and not the HOTAS button for the brake did anything.
All flight controls on all peripheral devices where completely disabled, including all keyboard buttons to fly with the keyboard and add power to the turbines with F2 for example. No flight possible with this Airbus yesternight.
Well one cannot fly an Airbus with the mouse alone.

Did some gliding in the Alps, only to return the airport to find my tow plane crashed
Then, a flight in the Twin Beech.

Every minute in the Fenix Airbus cockpit is a big privilege. And every minute that prolongs sitting in the Airbus cockpit like waiting for the GNADIRS to align is a bit plus in immersion and realism.
