That’s a really neat way of showing performance figures in the sim. Hope other devs see this and steal your idea :wink:

Thank you Megadyptes7635!
We try to utilize all available in-game UI instead of creating custom ā€œtabletsā€ and then fix them after next SU! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :+1:

Perhaps this is the wrong venue to ask - (but your team appears to have a really good understanding of the resident capabilities of this flight sim) - regardless -

Question: Is it possible to Print a displayed Checklist and/or Flight Plan?

Not the first or last (not so informed) question I have or will ask

Hi ElectricMite967!
MSFS doesn’t have ā€œPrintā€ option. But you can print Checklist and Performance data from manual which we use - PILOT’S INFORMATION MANUAL PC-6/B2-H4.
If you want to print Flight Plan and Map you can use Little Navmap Free flight planner.

Is it possible to add a DME panel?

It is Possible to add DME, but with 530/430 or 750/650 do you really need it? :grinning:

That’s true…the only issue with the Garmin though is the 430/650 doesn’t display the distance for NAV2 frequency. Also I just like having the option to fly old school and forget about the screens.

Well, Geometry tells us you need 2 angles only one distance, in our case from VOR1, to find VOR to VOR Intersection .

The pc6 Porter is a bush plane why would you need a DME ?

What is the sound starting from 1:48? Is that reverse thrust? Sounds really weird.

@FlightSimUA I’m sure you watched the Dev Q&A the other week where they detailed upcoming changes to prop simulation, with more realistic feathering, and proper prop drag.

Do you see this benefitting your simulation, perhaps making your job easier in fact, even if it does mean revisiting some things?
