What I want to know is if the real aircraft can select a TGT temp <600C, as even that can occasionally overspeed the aircraft Iāve found, but currently you canāt select a temp <600C.

I appreciate all the help I can get with this plane haha
It is holding alright for me @ 670
Edit: Now realized I misread what you said <600, not >600 lol
Love hand-flying her! Anyone knows how to calibrate the throttle on the Logitech throttle quadrant? Mine works smooth until around 75%, then it goes straight to 100%, canāt adjust anything between 75 and 100%. Rather difficult setting the correct target N1 while in climb. 75% obviously too low and 100% results in over-speed. Thanks!
Has anyone been able to locate even rudimentary takeoff and landing performance data (beyond the single marketing value at SL & ISA that might be factored or unfactored)?
Not necessarily looking to do manual assumed temperature thrust calculations, just a way to determine what flaps setting I need on a short-ish runway, so a single table or graph like what you sometimes find in public airport planning documents would do nicely.
FCOM vol2 would have the data but I cannot find a copy of that even for sale, and the FCOMs and other stuff floating around tend to be for the Avro RJ series that do not even have the same engines as the ones Just Flight made.
Someone has done an amazing job with a Ansett New Zealand liveryā¦
If you want to do like actual flights. You must download that classic livery and do some flights between airports in NZā¦
Get the amazing NZA simulations Rotorua airport from flightsim.to ā¦
itās free!!! Like almost top quality but free!!!
Also get a great āfreeā airport Christchurchā¦
Now use that navmap program and plan a VOR to VOR flight from Rotorua to Queenstown, then to Christchurch then a main trunkline flight to Wellingtonā¦ (buy the Wellington airport!!! A++++)
Tipā¦
Rotorua airport has had three runway extentions over the years so, start with gate one or two, they were, what you could sayā¦ the original āAnsett gatesā go out through the main (original) taxiway that links to the runway and if your using 36ā¦ when you turn left to backtrack. . Just after the second taxiway (newly built) you will notice a small turning bayā¦ that was a original length/runway end/startā¦
Now you must do the stunning runway 23 approach into Queenstown airport which will see you weave between some stunning mountain valley!!! (Maybe do it first in the A32nx and do the RNP first to get an ideaā¦)

I couldnāt find it at all. But since it is designed around VOR/NDB/ILS navigation you can just load up EGJJ as your departure airport and EGGP as your arrival and it will work out fine. Youāll be doing everything manually so the lack of a flight plan isnāt hurting anything.
One thing I noted is that Jersey in the base simulator has no pushback tugs, so you will need to start from Ramps 15-24 or youāll be stuck unless you slew your way out. I wonder if that is why it got left out? The tutorial narrative says to request pushback and the pictures they show look nothing like what is in the sim. Maybe they have the add-on scenery from UK2000 and it has additional features required to run the tutorial as intended.
That does sound like a lot of fun. Will check out next time Iām in New Zealand!
Anyone know if the 146 would work in your controls shared cockpit?
Trim issues fixed, plane is now my favorite in sim!
Such a beautiful thing.

Here Iām taking a look at the 146 Professional. If anyone is having issues with the ILS, Iām doing an ILS approach.
Absolutely beautiful aircraft.

Did a couple more flights today and yeah you are totally right, 600 seems to be the minimum and it will overspeed pretty frequently at that setting. If only we could set it a bit lower! My TGT seems to get really low at times
Yes! Indispensable. Amazes me that the creator has packed so much into it.

Here are a few things to make your New Zealand getaway perfectā¦
Download your choice of BAe-146-200/300 Ansett NZ
Download freeware. Invercargill, Rotorua, Napier, Taupo, Dunedin, Christchurch,
Treat yourself to payware Wellington, Queenstown and Aucklandā¦ Throw in Nelson as well
Your flight plan
Set yourself up for a Auckland morning redeyed trunk route flight to Wellington followed with a quick turn around flight to Christchurch then from Christchurch fly on to a stunning mountain flight into Queenstown with a plane full of Japanese tourists, then from there, take them to Rotorua. A return flight to Christchurch, a mid afternoon dart to Dunedin then a flight back to Auckland. That would see you do basically the entire Ansett New Zealand BAe 146 routeā¦
Then take the Air New Zealand BAe-146 and do some point to point stand alone flights to other airports such as Invercargill, Napier, Nelson and Taupoā¦
Oh and take one of the Pipers for a flight up the northern east cost of North Auckland all the way to Cape Reinga the very top of the counrty

Couple issues on this flight, not sure if it is me or intermittent sim issues (must be intermittent since they are pretty significant):
- Could not engage the autopilot, moving the mouse pointer over the AP button there is no click spot there. I could engage autopilot with the Honeycomb Bravo Autopilot button that happened to be mapped for that. The symptom is similar to what I have on the Just Flight Warrior where most GPS buttons and the carb heat lever almost never work.
- After setting the brake selector to Green during taxi out I could not switch it back to Yellow and I could not select parking brake. Mouse pointer was a āfingerā rather than a curved arrow when hovering over the brake selector, and āclickingā it did nothing. Oddly enough that resolved itself after parking and shutdown so I wonder if it is something I did, but I cannot think what it was. The issue remained during taxi in after landing.
Did anyone else see this or know anything about it?
If you set a shortcut for pushback you will get pushed back anyway, or get the excellent freeware pushback tool from Toolbar Pushback fƶr Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS
For those who fly with the FMS, how is it working for you? Trying to decide between the 3 jets but for the big jets i am quite reliant on the FMS as i donāt like to fly VOR in a modern airspace.
So how is the FMS doing in ters of making good routes and not let you fly in a few circles?
The FNS has been working smoothly for me. I donāt know how to fly on VOR, so Iāve used the FMS exclusively. It brings your Simbrief flight plan over without a hitch.

No click spot sounds like a bug, but just in case: do you have yaw dampeners, AP master, and avionics A and B enabled on the overhead? Do you have the yaw dampeners switched on? Finally, just in case, the AP button on the glareshield isnāt a button; the AP button is actually on the centre pedestal next to the yaw dampeners button (which must also be on). Oh, and flight directors.
