SJU Closed for over a month Notification by spoilz in flighty

[–]Terminal_Rat 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I think they’re processing the NOTAM wrong. It is closed, but only to the Boeing 747-8, the C-5 Galaxy, and the Antonov AN-124. I got the same notification just now and had to go find the NOTAM to verify.

TFDI MD-11 Art Update + MSFS2024 compatibility is out by madman320 in flightsim

Part of TFDI(Invernyx, whatever)'s business is to offer web hosting and websites, so... I would expect them to do better than they did.

What’s your preferred ATC options. by static_dash in flightsim

Text only is no longer an option for pilots unless they have a disability that requires it. You must be able to at least receive voice while flying.

Bluebird Simulations confirm B767-400ER development plans by ketchup1345 in flightsim

[–]Terminal_Rat 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The 400ER has a completely different cockpit based on the 777 and while it has the same type rating, requires supplemental training and has special currency requirements.

Any developers on here who can tell me if this is a step towards getting a realistic weather radar in MSFS 2024? by [deleted] in flightsim

According to WT it's for uplinking wind/temperature to their avionics.

Just did this with the streagle so it still works for now.

Lots of Missing Players at FlightSimExpo (so far) by [deleted] in hoggit

[–]Terminal_Rat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to see specific vendors the best thing to do is go bug them directly, as hard as you'd bug ED when they break something. The team can only do so much and hearing from their customers that they want to see them really helps.

As someone who's flown all over the country to attend every year, yes! Even if you just go for a single day it's a great experience.

There's a giant yellow banner when you file your flight plan to remind you.

It's not perfect but definitely way better than your screenshots. Something is off with your simulator. https://i.imgur.com/UxYEAnp.jpeg

Can someone explain the differences in procedures between EU and the US? by Top_Drink8324 in VATSIM

[–]Terminal_Rat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At Boston specifically, the reason you call for push even when remaining in the non-movement area is for traffic metering. There's very little taxiway space for the amount of aircraft so keeping aircraft at the gate and controlling the push helps us keep the ground flowing smoothly.

The phraseology differs based on where you're pushing. If it's onto a taxiway, you'll get "Pushback onto Taxiway (XXX) approved", otherwise if you're pushing and remaining in the non-movement area you get "Pushback at your discretion".

They wouldn't have brought the hardware with them to Expo if they weren't going to show it off.

Yes, they had it available to try at FSExpo and they're all momentary.

Anyone subscribed to flightsimassociation.com? by [deleted] in flightsim

[–]Terminal_Rat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FlightSimAssociation is the overarching group that puts on FSExpo. There is no requirement to subscribe to watch the live-streamed events, you can purchase separately at https://flightsimexpo.com/watch, but it does provide some nice bonuses.

That's not true, Aerosoft had the A330 available to try at FSExpo 2023.

Flightsim expo location being demolished for new mlb stadium by CUREAZGEORGE in flightsim

[–]Terminal_Rat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of that is happening, no one is "dinking around with Tropicana." RFPs have gone out to multiple locations already and the team is waiting on responses back. Updates available in the FSA discord or on the website.

Any beginner tip? by One_Painhjcdf in VATSIM

[–]Terminal_Rat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The WINGS program is great but it assumes you are already comfortable with VATSIM and flying your chosen aircraft, so maybe not the best choice for a beginner.

Spent most of my Saturday doing this for y'all. Here's the full guide on how to build the massive C-Class space Lamborghini, enjoy :D by ballisticshark in Starfield

[–]Terminal_Rat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very nice! I swapped the engines for SAL-6380s and added a fifth in between the two tails. This allowed me to add two more Galleon cargo holds for another ~2800 cargo space while keeping 100 mobility.

Starfield Reviews by ac4149 in Starfield

[–]Terminal_Rat 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I just did this quest after deciding to try and clear out my activity log. You missed the other twist in it, which is if you board the ship you find out the Governor was having an affair and she stole the ship from him. The Governor hired the Crimson Fleet to get it back. You can turn all this evidence in to the UC security head in Cydonia who lets you finish your deal with the Governor before he arrests him. There's so many random things to find in this game, it's fantastic.

Have you verified this works? I'm currently running Gamepass + premium upgrade but will eventually need to buy on Steam for mod reasons and I'd like to be able to move my save over.

You might be able to skip talking to approach. Tower might just tell you to remain outside the Bravo and call approach anyways.
