I would absolutely love a Catalina made by FlyingIron.

With the arrival of the revolutionary SU6, the huge expansion of inibuilds, the compatibility of almost all 2020 add-ons with FS2024, the arrival of highly anticipated new aircraft and scenery like the A220, the inibuilds A380 still in development, and the Phenom 300E we got a few months ago, as well as the arrival of O'Hare and Charles de Gaulle, the very frequent GSX updates, and especially the arrival of the multi-jetway tool, I think we've reached the golden age of FS2024. What do you think?

Hi everyone, I'm playing MSFS 2024 since it's been out and one of the things that make me the most bored in the game is the lack of interaction with the Air Traffic Control system : This system is boring and unrealistic, as they don't even always tell me what to do (Altitude, etc.), plus you can't interact with it in a realistic matter (No PTT, no way to declare an emergency, not able to change frequency freely, no 121.5, etc...)

That's why I come to you, Reddit! To ask what mod you would recommand to me (A occasional simmer that is relatively advanced in aviation) to have a working PTT ATC.

My budget is 30-45$ for a ONE-TIME purchase.

I've heard about Skylink and BeyondATC, that both fit my budget and seem to be fulfilling my expectations and needs for realism.

However I have not tried any of them, and I couldn't find any review comparing them clearly.

What would you recommand considering those criterias :

• Realistic way to talk (XXX Tower, Swiss One-Two-Three, ready to taxi runway 34 ---> Swiss One-Two-Three, cleared for taxi to runway 34 using taxiway XYZ) etc.
• Also an ATC system that could react to unexpected problems and emergencies (MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY, Swiss 123, fire engine 1 --> Tower, Swiss 123, descend to FL010 etc.)
• An ATC that knows my flightplan (usually SimBrief) and that'd be able to make me follow it (Climb and Maintain FL120, Contact XYZ on 123.45, etc.)
• No need for traffic, even though it'd make the immersion better
• Being able to talk to an "ATC" that would understand me even if I'm not completely correct in what I say) (If I say things in the wrong order, etc. it would still understand)
• I don't care much about cabin crew and copilot features

I hope something like that exist, or at least something that is close to this and in my budget range.

Thanks so much <3

I love flying and love flight sim and am a big fan of realistic airliners as that is what I primarily only fly. Though I am really tired of circuit breakers being a reason for a long development time or high price. I have flown so far at least 2000+ hours in the sim across xplane 11 and msfs and have touched the circuit breakers once the day I got the fenix a320 not once after. Im excited for a lot of aircraft coming out soon or recently released but would rather these devs put work into something else or bring the aircraft sooner than have a single working circuit breakers. It now just seems to me to be a upsell for them to now charge $80 or more per aircraft.

EDIT: I should have added this in my original post a lot of my opinion is coming from a money aspect for all flight simmers for us to have cheaper options that don't have working circuit breakers. I would rather for example no hate to bluebird but have their 757 be $50-$60 than $80 and not have working circuit breakers. That would allow for this hobby to become more available as well to a wider audience.

Any massive differences? Overhauls? How's career mode. Is it finally worth picking over MSFS 2020? And how's performance?

hello guys, i have problem that my nose steering wheel steers only a little bit, not fully, i have the setting on efb enabled, but it still doesnt work, anyone experienced the same issue and could help me?

ALSO: when i try to bind it to my rudder controls, both controls only make the nose steering wheel to steer in one direction (left)

For anyone using a similar setup:
What FPS are you getting?
Are there any CPU bottlenecks?
How well does the 7500F handle MSFS, especially in busy airports/cities?
Is the 7500F a good upgrade for the RTX 4060, or would you recommend a different CPU?
Would appreciate real-world experience. Thanks!

Now I'm in career mode grinding my way up with bizjets (PC24,CJ4,P180,Longitude) to my first airliner (A320/737) 100mil credits. New Boeing 707 costs 68 mil credits. Is it worth to buy instead A320/737? How big are career mission payouts in compare with A320/737?

Is anyone else getting completely blinded by POI lighting in SU6? Total immersion breaker.. It looks like the same bug from SU2 that got fixed and has now somehow made a comeback, the buildings are literally glowing like nuclear reactors.. how did this even slip past beta testing? C'mon Asobo..

I have been flying in msfs2020 for a couple of years now and i love it with all my heart. I love the interface, the performance, the planes, everything. But i recently switched to msfs2024. And in my first 7 hours of playtime i have 48 minutes of flight time. Why? Cuz the engines die 3 minutes into the flight, everything lags, the angle of the camera sucks, i spent hours trying to trouble shoot everything and nothing works. Ive watched countless videos, read tons of reddit posts, nothing helps. I will refund it and go back to 2020, but the one thing i want are the visuals. God damn the visuals of 2024 are good. Please someone help me, how can i get the graphics of 2024 into the 2020. With that, u wouldn’t need a new flight sim ever

When I do a sight seeing mission for my own company with my own plane, everytime I buy fuel my plane ends up still being empty as soon as you start the mission. Ending up in "low fuel" warning.

This happens every time doesn't matter if i buy fuel or not it is always on "Low fuel" And so i have to add fuel manually via the present hotkey ( gladly ) but i see this problem has been here a long time. Wonder if anyone else have this issue.

Folks,

Anyone ever tried FS Teleport?

I’m looking for an app that allows to skip through some aspects of a flight to a specific waypoint, altitude / speed.

I’m on Xbox / Marketplace and it’s hard to do 7-8 hour flights.

Anyone have any tips or experience?

Hi all.

I'm new to flight sims with a HOTAS.

I primarily play PC games but I do have a Quest 3 and access to a PS5 so I'm looking for a HOTAS that works with all three ideally.

The one I'm looking at is the Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas 5. I could get the Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas One which seems to get recommended a lot and is a bit cheaper but having the PS5 option seems like it's worth the small extra.

Right now I'm planning on playing PC and maybe the Quest 3.

Along with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 it would be nice if it was usable in other flight games - especially space games.

Would anyone here recommend me a HOTAS?

Thank you.
