The stupidest flight of my life - MSFS 2024

[@n085fs]

Goober. Fuel efficiency is part of the challenge.

[@xander4218]

yeah... idk how these people are running out of fuel, do you guys not adjust your fuel mixture when you're in the air??

[@BrianUretsky]

Turboprops no mixture

[@n085fs]

@@BrianUretsky Turboprops operate best at a specific density altitude, which should be listed by the manufacturer. Also, you're supposed to find the best tailwind aloft. Not to mention finding the optimal climb and descent rates...

[@BrianUretsky]

@@n085fs ATC wants you at 11,000, and there’s no way to request a different altitude.

[@n085fs]

@@BrianUretsky Odd. FSX had ways to request a new altitude.

[@object-Object]

yeah, I hate it. It so weird at times. The first time I open career mode, the entire cessna would just shut off (like up to 5 times per flight). Also, it gives me stupid violations for "Overflying Airport" when im over somewhere where there is obviously not a airport.

[@oni0n747]

also doesnt let me talk to atc at times even when spamming the button

[@DownTheRabbit-Hole]

RW pilot and Instructor here... silly stuff this. Nothing but a bad habit enhancer.

[@luke2168]

And also Cessna 172 always start with pulling fuel from left wing, which causes airborne engine stopped several time that I was flying, which I had to troubleshoot and switched the fuel selection manually to right wing😢, quite a ride

[@dylanmiller9604]

I can’t wait to get my black square caravan mod to work in 2024. Lol

[@jimstone5401]

it does GIVE YOU ENOUGH FUEL You do not how to add it.

[@jettlethedragonpeeltheoran8915]

ATC keeping you at ridiculous height until you're on top of the airport was pretty standard in FS2020, I guess they've carried that over.

[@TheBradbernard17]

the pain in his eyes at the end lol yeah this game is buggy but ima play it anyway

[@wout123100]

sadly careermode has a ton of bugs for now

[@jimstone5401]

The radio is not talking to you.

[@Aaab2328]

I suppose there’s a reason people pay +$100k to go to flight school to then have to build hundreds of hours and get tens of thousands of dollars of additional training before anyone will let them fly a real Caravan.

[@jorge_781]

in these weather conditions in special GFX looks worse than FSX

[@B.D.E.]

So stick with MSFS 2020 for now?

[@DownTheRabbit-Hole]

Yes. RW pilot and instructor here. Career mode is for kids really. Nothing but a bad habit inducer. Learn to fly properly from online ground schools or online rw instructors etc. Not affiliated. Vatsim has lots of free rw skills training. I really have to control myself from trashing career mode. I bite my lip at the direction msobo took. It is for 12 y/o gamers on xbox really. Minor improvements to model, simplistic replay, improved lighting, awful AI Autogen, but basically, They threw all the RW flight simmers under the bus.

[@t3hav8r]

Some of it is Microsoft fault, most of it is your fault - you mostly have no idea what are you doing.

[@n085fs]

Don't lie. You clearly had instruments for that approach. Skyboxes is cheating.

[@chiefinkief1284]

The career mode flight paths have a lot of inconsistencies compared to 2020 when you set up a flight path with approaches in the menus. In 2024 the flight path on the compass in 3rd person and the aircraft instruments flight path don't match up at times. The taxi system is also broken, making you taxi 1.50 miles to take off when you're at the opposite end of the runway MATCHING UP WITH YOUR FLIGHT PATH.

[@n085fs]

@@chiefinkief1284 Just use VOR1 and VOR2 to cage your flight and destination. Using G1000 is also cheating. spongeboblaugh.wav

[@Ghost-qv7hx]

all mission have problems

[@scoopmc]

shush

[@DavidMoviez]

Bro, you should press tab and see the A C T U A L flight plan and approach to that airport. Please tell me your brains thought of it afterwards. If not, sheesh, how you flying real planes?

[@haxbagtrinity]

This man flies real planes? seems like an asshole.

[@BrianUretsky]

The airport has no approach procedures

[@martincharles2783]

Did you file an alternate airport that have instrument approaches? Continuing a flight in IMC to an airport with no IAP is a dangerous move. You gotta work on ADM to increase the realism of MSFS24!!! FYI I am a real world pilot if you have any questions. I operate a G280.

[@BrianUretsky]

The game does not give you the ability to set alternate airports. G280 is a nice jet, albeit a bit smaller than the 767 I fly.

[@TragicPenguinX]

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not 😂
