Elvensmith Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Loaded up a saved 747 flight from Tenerife to Gatwick. As expected the autopilot and autothrottle were off. After a bit of a wrestle to re-engage I then noticed no track on the CDU and called up the map which also showed nothing. Popped down to the FMC and as suspected the flight plan created on starting the flight has gone - not even the arrival and departure airports listed. This is a major bug as it effectively means you can't fly a long haul IFR flight in several sessions. Surely this must have been picked up in testing? About to log a bug report to Zendesk, unless anyone else has already done so? Vern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapitan Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If you are a long haul driver use another sim....

Elvensmith Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 Well the XP11 747 is not without its faults, but at least it keeps the flight plan loaded. And the gushing reports from all the testers prior to release and the "Oooo", "Ahhh" videos on YT were telling us the default aircraft were so much better than what we had in previous FS iterations.

wout123 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 you ppl forget something, the ga planes are better, not the tubeliners, i guess these were hurried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvensmith Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 you ppl forget something, the ga planes are better, not the tubeliners, i guess these were hurried. Some of the GA planes are okay but still have issues with autopilot and flight dynamics. The tubes were also featured quite prominently in some of the YT promotional material that was rammed down our throats. Becoming apparent this (at present) is a sightseeing game - load up and fly for 40 mins looking at the scenery, exit then next time go somewhere else, rather than a full on procedural sim. Vern.

mokbubble Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Is it just established the load game doesn't work for long hauls? That really stinks, I hope it gets fixed because I love the game otherwise, and hope this gets resolved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
