    • As I wrote as a reply to a previous post, I am currently working on support for MSFS2024 scenery-scan via navdatareader (made by Alexander Barthel - the developer of Little NavMap). The reason for this is because MakeRunways (by Peter Dowson) was only able to scan scenery via BGL-files, which are no longer in use for MSFS2024), hence Flightplan Viewer was not able to show the gates matching your active scenery for MSFS2024.   I am currently working on having Flightplan Visualizer import the database generated by navdatareader, and I still have a few changes to do, and things to check. But hope I will be able to release a new version within a month or so. To use this new feature you will have to run navdatareader (while MSFS2024 is running,  as it extract scenery-date via SimConnect). Basically you "should" run navdatareader whenever you have updated your scenery (e.g. installed a new airport) - just like you in the past "should" run MakeRunways each time you had made changes to your scenery. FlightPlan Visualizer will still default to be using the MakeRunways files you have made yourself, or those bundled with the installer. However in settings you can in the following version specify a path to where you have a database generated by navdatareader. If this database is specified the navdatareader-db will take priority over the MakeRunways-files.   There will be a few benefits using the navdatareader-DB over the MakeRunways-files. First of all it can scan your installed MSFS2025 scenery, but it can also scan scenery purchased via the Markedplace within MSFS (MakeRunways couldn't do this, as this scenery was encrypted). MakeRunways didn't fully support unicode, so I had to put in extra code trying to catch when it did something "bad" to the airport-names, which is not an issue with navdatareader. Also as visible in the screen-shot below, hoovering the mouse over a gate, the tooltip will show if a jetway is associated with the gate.  
    • I work for the winter operation team and next to S11 there is currently a new cargo positions in the built and Taxiway Romeo will be redone . I am in the hope that they do a update to it after terminal 3 is ready  
    • Noticed when flying into LDZA how the jetways start moving even before I have come to a complete stop when taxiing into the gate.   How can I stop this from happening?   Normally and for most other airports, the jetway will not start extending until I have come to a full stop and the jetway is triggered to extend as part of the GSX deboarding.   Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    • Then, once you have downloaded the XML files, connect the Foxtrot joystick, start MSFS2024, go to Settings > Controls, select the Foxtrot General controls Profile, click the gear icon, and use Import/Export to manage the General controls Profile XML file. Repeat the operation with the Airplane controls profile and XML file.
    • Let me check with the developpers. It may be that it will only install in the standard default folder and disk. I come back later about this.
    • I would be keen to know too.  It would be great to be able to do something for it.   I intend on conducting flight tests/analysis of newer aircraft if/when I move to MSFS to help build profiles for some newer models.   As far as capability and customisability - Simbrief is nowhere near, and the developers seem most uninterested in advanced features.   Unfortunately, I generally think the hobby in some areas has been increasingly dumbed-down, not least in the flight planning department.         Do you use it regularly, Mathijs?  I'm not sure you've got much skin in the game 
    • This is strange and must be related to your system as it actually work. I have downloaded it for you and attached to this message so that  you can get it directly from here. Foxtrot_Aviation_Stick_General controls_MFS2024.xmlFoxtrot_Aviation_Stick_Airplanes controls_MFS2024.xml
    • I have at the same problem.... What shouid I do?
    • Roger that, thanks.  I used the navigraph hub to keep the AIRAC updated but will just have to suffer through starting with engines running at the gate for the time being.     Andrew KCYS
