Looks like a lot of the POIs are famous bridges. There are also a number of national landmarks (both man made and natural) added and some aviation related stuff (Kennedy Space Center, Wright Brothers landmark, plane graveyard in the desert). Once you download the USA pack they all show up on the world map. From Reddit: quote:Airports Zero One fucked around with this message at 20:08 on Nov 24, 2020 |

Anime Store Adventure posted:Navigraph’s desktop chart viewer that can both take your flight plan from sim brief (or generate one right there) and then sync with the sim to show you where you are is very good. You can even see your plane’s location on the actual chart. I haven't had huge issues with ATC. You are right that they will mostly get you to the ILS eventually. Actually last night was almost perfectly on the STAR altitudes when I flew into Geneva Switzerland. But I do wish they would give you the instructions to follow your own navigation. All these little steps up and down in altitude are annoying.

I once had it tell me to descend to 5000 feet over the Channel Islands while inbound to LAX. Buzzing Malibu in a 787 was fun but I didn’t hit any mountains. Possible issue: on that flight I was testing not planning an arrival and just putting it into the FMS after ATC assigned one. On future flights I always planned a STAR and approach from the world map. ATC hasn't given me weird directions since I put everything into the sim at the start.

Not sure if it's been posted before but if you want to learn the A320 and especially the FBW mod this guy does some great tutorials: https://youtube.com/user/filanjix I went from knowing nothing about the Airbus to flying like an expert in just a few videos.

Wolfy posted:I can basically fly a real airbus now, right? Yes. Just don't say you learned it from that guy.  Merv Burger posted:Meanwhile, I've been flying the FlyByWire A320 Neo and it's been fine? Yeah the FBW has been a lot of fun for me recently. Even with the sometimes (most times) bad ATC in the game you can still use the mod to fix most other issues. I just wish they could do one for the 787. I love that big bird but the in game version is so simple compared to the FBW. Looks like the mod for that plane died because it's an encrypted file in the game. Very sad. They are working on a A380. I hope they can add the A321 and A350 eventually too.

Merv Burger posted:I know that Project Mega Pack (the people that make a ton of free liveries,) has a freeware A321 available. I don't know how well it interacts with the FBW 320 Neo, though. The 321 is just the FSX model with the 320 Neo cockpit. It is incompatible with the FBW*. The 330 release on Discord says the same. I appreciate them adding planes to the game but it's not at the same level. Also they seem to have stopped updating the mega pack? The last release was months ago and many liveries don't work anymore. *The FBW folks are working on splitting their version into a separate aircraft in the game so hopefully in the future you can have both. Steadiman posted:I'd love an FBW 787! That plane is the reason I got the deluxe version and I'm so dissapointed in it. The cockpit looks absolutely fantastic though, it's a really nice place to be.Some people have made custom cockpit textures for the A320 though, there's a nice black/beige one that I've been enjoying. It really does make the Airbus cockpit a much more pleasant environment to be in. It's of course not realistic but I don't really care. I saw on the FBW Discord they are still tweaking the textures.

Oh I got a FUN new issue... runway tears. When landing or taking off the runway might tear and put up big cracks and walls. On takeoff my nosewheel hit one and literally did a front flip and landed on its back. But worse is crashing on landing after flying for 6 hours...

I did my first round trip from Geneva->Venice->Geneva. With the FBW mod I was able to load up flight plans and fuel from Sim Brief which made it super easy... especially on turnaround. Rain and clouds in Geneva but sunny skies in Venice.   I only had two issues... first was that the FS ATC didn't seem to want to clear me any higher than ~15,000 feet after takeoff. I did have my correct CRZ loaded into the FMC before getting IFR clearance. I'm not sure if I did anything wrong or if its just FS ATC being bad. (Edit: after researching FS ATC is bad). I ended up manually requesting my CRZ and the ATC did work fine assigning altitudes on descent. Also my FO did not want to take over the radio after leaving Venice. But they did start talking again after landing back in Geneva. Zero One fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Mar 20, 2021 |

I've been following the FBW discord to get the latest updates and see what they are working on. But boy are there some people posting there who should not be attempting to fly a super realistic airliner before getting some basics down. For example: someone came into the Discord to complain about a bug where their plane was flying 15 degrees nose up at 10,000 feet and 250kt with full thrust and unable to climb further. A dev asked them to post a screenshot of their cockpit and they did... and it showed a ECAMS screen full of warnings including engine and wing icing. I know that FS2020 has icing bugs but if the plane is telling you to turn on anti-icing maybe try that before complaining on Discord. Then a funny one: Another person was paying attention to their ECAMS and got a Master Warning for cabin pressure. He tried following the messages to fix it and also tried switching to manual pressure control but that didn't help. Eventually he posted a screenshot after he found the issue: the rear door was wide open in flight. Now one from me: I got the Thrustmaster Airbus stick and throttle yesterday. I did a test flight and it seemed to be going OK. But all of a sudden in cruise I got an Overspeed warning and the barberpole on the speed tape dropped to an incredibly low airspeed. It turned out my flaps and spoilers had fully deployed on their own. I started poking around and found that it happened every time I paused the game. I think somehow the throttle is sending commands for the spoilers and flaps even though I don't have that add-on hardware. Removing the keybinds fixed the issue.
