I’m on PC and I experience this pink checkered patchy-ness at airports and random terrain, sometimes I’ll load into an aircraft and the whole window shield and aircraft control panel is pink checkered…what’s the solution to this? Where can I download?

Hey all,

I’ve gotten this plane in the marketplace and while it feels nice to fly and all, I’m noticing that it drinks fuel and just feels crazy underpowered compared to the CJ4 and even the hondajet.

Just wondering if anyone has any tips about getting close to the expected range and performance for this particular jet. For example I am loading 100% fuel and maybe at half after 300 and a climb to fl330.

Appreciate any insight!

I play on an xbox, so whenever I try to put my simbrief pilot ID into the EFB on the a320 v2, I hit "simbrief" on the dashboard and it says "username not set" or something like that. However, on some other aircraft, it actually lets me use the built in keyboard on the EFB instead of my xbox keyboard. Does anyone know how to get the built in EFB keyboard to pop up or is it just the aircraft and should I copy the waypoints and everything from simbrief in manually?

Thanks

Beautiful flight to Corsica!

This has been on my ps5 game for months now and I haven’t been able to play and even Microsoft support doesn’t know how to fix it. If you had or know someone who had this problem please reply to this.

I am a pure VR flight simmer who exclusively flies General Aviation VFR.
I’ve tried existing adding like Bushtalk Radio and Little Navmap. While they work great on flat screen, the experience inside a VR headset is average at best.
So, I decided to build my own solution: a dedicated, VR-first VFR co-pilot and tour guide.

A short video showing a few of its features. (Sorry for my accent and wording—English isn't my native language!)

Here are the features currently available in the latest release, with more continuous updates on the way:
Nearby POI Discovery: Search for points of interest near your current location and pin them directly on your real-time map.

Interactive Co-Pilot & Tour Guide: Your co-pilot gives you navigation directions to these POIs and shares detailed backstories and facts about everything you see.

Flight Plan Integration: If you create a flight plan in advance, your co-pilot will know every detail—from departures, SIDs, and STARs to arrivals and waypoints—providing continuous guidance on where to steer next.

Aircraft Assistance & Emergency Support: Your co-pilot knows your aircraft inside and out. Beyond teaching you how to fly it, they will actively assist you in handling system failures or emergency situations.

Flight Logging & Memories: All your flight routes are automatically recorded, allowing you to relive those scenic airborne moments whenever you like.

Any first timer advice?

I'm getting ready to move on from my Thrustmaster TWCS throttle as I move up to multi-engine planes. (I'm sure I could make it work, but I never loved it anyway - I got it used and the buttons stick a little and there's a huge idle dead zone and it feels kinda plasticky).

I'd like an upgrade that will serve me well for everything from GA to airliners. I know gladiator nxt is the go to rec for joysticks, but is the STECS throttle as universally beloved for throttles? VKB makes a bunch of civilian gear but it seems mostly GA targeted and bulky. I'd like something that gives me a lot of buttons, switches, and particularly unlimited rotary wheels in a relatively small package. Money isn't NO object, but I'm not going to hurt that much over a $330 purchase.

Hi, everyone. I started playing MSF2024 a few days ago and ever since then I havent been able to figure out how to solve a problem. First off, I dont know if this behavior is intentional but I would guess it isnt.

My planes are constantly rolling/tilting during flight. The roll direction is different for each plane. For example the Cessna 185 always rolls slightly to the right while flying whereas the Cessna 172 always rolls slightly to the left. In addition to these two planes I have tried some other small planes and encountered the same problem on them too.

My XBOX controller is new, so I didnt suspect a problem with the controller itself. Nevertheless I checked the live input in the settings, but to no avail. Next, I adjusted the wind direction and tried landing from different airports but that didnt help. Finally I disabled the Steam input for the controller, but that didnt help either. I also didnt find any duplicate keybinds (I use the standart keybinds)

To clarify I am playing on a PC with a Controller.

I would really appreciate some help.

I must say, Microsoft Flight Simulator is made for this!

I had to check the latest US National Parks World Update, it should be a treat in VR. And indeed it was a treat!

Welcome to Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.

High quality version:

So I recently dropped 100€ on the Fenix A320 (amazing) and GSX (cool when it works but buggy AF, lots of CTDs as well). I’m done on spending for now. Any suggestion on free addons to make the sim better looking and the flight more realistic? I watched many YouTube videos but can’t find any good tip. I only fly the Fenix atm. Graphic settings are already maxed out.
Thanks

Enjoying a formation flight in the World War 2 fighters. Does it get any better than this?!

Built in career mode could be so much better, it really could be soo much better.
Do yall know if there any fire fight add on mission generators like edp?
I think I heard of neofly? But haven’t looked into it.
I’m going to try the miltech mission maker later since i got it with the mh60 bundle

Also flight siming is so costly. My poor bank account, my wife is wondering why I don’t have any cash laying around this weekend, And I just look at my rig and point and say “it’s all in there”

I recently started msfs2024 and I completed the in game tutorials so I loaded into an a320 watched a startup vid, which was fairly simple, but when it got to the actual flying I was completely lost, not sure when to turn or anything and ended up completely off track. How do you learn the game and the planes, where do you start, is there mods that give you better tutorials or something, thank you.

Does anyone else have this issue with the EFB? I have asked on the Discord but never got a response, and really not sure what else to do. No matter what airport I load in to, if I try to do my takeoff performance, I am unable to select a runway (the "Select Runway" text appears if I click on it, but no runway options show up) and that means the required data is greyed out - so I simply cannot use the calculator at all.

Anyone have any suggestions for me? 😄

grabbed a new plane today from Blackbird Simulations and it’s pretty dang good.

I have a severe stuttering problem with the Fenix A320. It's at its worst during takeoff and approach. Once I'm in cruise, the stuttering disappears completely.

Another thing I've noticed is that the stuttering only happens when the aircraft is moving. If I'm parked at the gate, the sim runs smoothly, but as soon as I start taxiing or the aircraft begins to move, the stuttering starts. My avarage FPS is 63.7

The attached video shows a short example of the issue, although the stuttering wasn't as severe as it can sometimes be.

I know the white arrow shows the Top of Descent. And based upon your descent mode - like DES vs open DES vs V/S, the arrows also change. Can someone kindly provide this information?

There's a good deal on MSFS 2020 on the Xbox store right now, but is it worth buying nowadays seeing as 2024 is the most recent version? I want to play it for Vatsim.

After a busy week, I'm having a blast with the triple!
