Jack Sawyer Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 For @F737NG I flew from Manchester to Liverpool. I would have tried to find some bridges or even land but I was SO infuriated with this autopilot I just quit the sim in frustration. I have never seen something so ridiculous in my entire real-world working avionics life. You can engage the A/P in this G1000 plane and fly GPS/NAV, HDG, and ALT hold all day just fine. But when disconnecting the autopilot for some reason the altitude hold stays engaged. How I really feel about XP are valiantly being kept to myself.

Aussieflyer38 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Ultimate frustration with XP, yep been there, and you bit your tongue, good lad I didn't, I sent them an email stating ##@@**** Hey nice pics mate. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F737MAX Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Very nice Jack and thanks for putting up with autopilot struggles to get some more pictures. Very frustrating when your aircraft doesn't behave the way you expect or want it to. I'm glad the other big cities got some attention in GB Central. It would have been *very* upsetting to have Liverpool get nearly all the POI attention! Hope you enjoyed a wander round our green and pleasant land. You should at some point do the trip over the Pennines between Sheffield and Manchester. Some very nice natural scenery, plus a few dams and other POIs that have have been reproduced. Hope your next flying session is a lot more enjoyable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Thanks Don! I posted there but no one else has experienced this yet so far. This is the default 172 so maybe there’s some quirks in it.
