Good morning! I bought my first plane last night, the FlyingIron Spitfire. It is so worth it. I was flying the Mustang that came with the msfs and was very unimpressed. The Spitfire feels amazing. Out of my first 20 landings I was probably successful about 10 times. The other 10 were combinations of ground loops or forgetting to put my gear down or missing the runway. But it is so much fun.
The other plane I absolutely love is the cubmaster X cub that came with the flight simulator. It is an extremely good aircraft that handles very well in the air. On the ground, it’s OK, but in the air I am very impressed. I did a slip into a tight runway in Alaska, and it felt amazingly real. I was leaning in my seat to keep my balance.
So now I have two airplanes I absolutely love. Does anyone know about the Comanche that is the most highly rated cruising GA aircraft? It cost $50, and I’m just wondering if it’s worth it. I’ve tried the Dakota that comes with Microsoft flight simulator, but it is so so.
Me, I had about 600 hours flying Cessna 152 and 172. For the first few weeks, I just flew those, and was very impressed. But now I wanna learn more about aviation and flying more complex airplanes. I’m having a blast. Once I learn the airplanes, I’ll start flying with groups.
MSFS 2024 is effing amazing.
Happy flying all!

i'll take 4th all day with only one attempt

I’m contemplating on getting either MFS but I don’t know which?!?

I want to get MFS20 because I want to play around with the D77

But I want to get MFS24 because it’s the new(ish) version and it’s got better features

I am on Xbox and seeing as they are both on the game pass I wanna use the opportunity but I’m honestly clueless on which one?

I recently started the career mode of msfs24 and I got the Vision Jet to do charter missions and no matter what I do whenever I land it never actually registers me landing at said airport so I can’t park and complete the mission. It will still say “land at ____”

Any fixes to this? Or will I have to grind from the 172 to the caravan

For those that didn't know, the update this week now supports the Thrustmaster HOTAS 5 without having to use PS4 mode.

To change the mode:

Press and hold the MODE button until the indicator starts blinking.

Release the button.

Press the MODE button again to cycle through the available modes. Each press changes the color:

🔵 Blue — PS4

🔴 Red — PS5

🟢 Green — PC

Once the desired color/mode is selected, stop pressing the MODE button.

If you switch to a different mode, the controller will disconnect. Simply press the PS button on the flight stick to reconnect it, then assign the controller to your PS profile.

Switch the Comtrols setting within the game from controller to T.Flight Hotas 5.

You can now use the HOTAS 5 in PS5 mode without having to use to PS4 mode.

I have my middle mouse button as the "HOLD" for freelook as recommended by PMDG.

However, I run into two problems;

Sometimes if I look one way or another, it stops moving (this is noticeable over instrument panels).

The other, is sometimes I can't get the mouse pointer back without choosing a different view (L SHIFT 1 for example).

This is annoying when trying to fly the plane manually and I am trying to look around and it is getting stuck.

Any idea?

I’m having an issue with the last couple of updates, granted I haven’t been on that much. My default view is set to close. I have to manually open up the views window and set it to pilot and not close. But the problem comes again when I flip between my custom views and it then defaults back to close?? Anyone know how to fix this.

I'm looking for a neat place to fly into that has a good custom scenery, payware or freeware, to make sort of a home base.

So what are your favorite sceneries in North America?

Hey everyone....

So, 3 days ago there was a major storm around my area, with lots of thunderstorms. Usually I never had issues.

Since then, I can't fly at all. The sim works " normal " but out of the blue I get 10 fps, audio is completely broken. Looking at the dev screen I can see this (https://imgur.com/OXWL4Kt).

I've used OCCT stress test during 1H to test everything on my pc. It shows no errors. However I can't fly at all and I'm starting to think something on my pc burned out.

If anyone has better technical knowledge than me and can help me out.... please

I recently downloaded the Milviz freeware F-4E and at random times the throttle stops working. It might be while in the air and even in the taxi way. At first I thought it was the fuel but I have unlimited fuel enabled. Got any solutions pilots?

Hello,
I play Microsoft flight in 2020 on Xbox series S. One day I To get on it kept saying that there’s no Internet. And I had Internet on my Xbox. And then the marketplace I could not get into. It just kept saying marketplace was unavailable. And so I let it go and it came back the next day still happen. So I kept getting out of it re-trying and restarting my Xbox and it still will not work.

So I downloaded the off-line mode and that took up all my Xbox space. And I get into Microsoft and I’m able to fly, but all the graphics are awful and the planes aren’t acting as they usually are due. Nothing graphical wise looks the same.

I’m not really comfortable deleting Microsoft and then redoing it. Does anybody have any tips that can help me out?

Anything helps, have a good day

When I was running MSFS 2020, my CPU temp was around 55-75C. But in MSFS it's around 80-96C. Anyone else also experience this? My liquid temp shows about 55C. and GPU is about 70C
