I know how to spend my lunchtimes (and what a difference a day makes) ! Following an overly eventful first flight in the A400M last night, I took it back out during my lunch-break today and tried to right a few wrongs. We fly from Oakland down to Monterey, use Simbrief, and let the Aircraftβs autopilot get to work. (Almost) everything goes like clockwork π

During the flight I find a way around the parking brake / chocks bug in the release version of the simulator π
Did you calibrate you levers in the EFB? I never had issues.
Would this be available in 2020?
The chocks thing happened to me too with the King Air. You can go outside and click on it (even if it is not there) and then you can go. I forgot to set parking brake and it started to move forward immediately, good thing you don't have to run if the plane leaves you… haha
Is this capable of rapid start? Like turning all four engines on at once, like in other military aircraft?
Still to many trees in MSFS, Seems like every bit of greenery they have made a tree when many should be bushes at the most.
Thrust Lever warning: Just double check if your keyboard have a conflictual key binding for a THR LEVER of some sort…
