The latest update for the Just Flight 146 Professional for MSFS, version 0.2.1, brings several significant improvements and fixes. Notable enhancements include the addition of progressive refueling functionality to the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB), now compatible with GSX, along with improved nose wheel steering accuracy and smoothness. Pilots will appreciate the new manual speed flipchart option, allowing for greater control over speed adjustments using left and right arrows. Additionally, general performance optimization and numerous fixes to the EFB, UNS-1 FMS, autopilot, and various visual and functional aspects contribute to a smoother and more immersive flying experience.
The update addresses specific issues reported by users, such as incorrect cargo quantities and passenger numbers when importing from SimBrief, and warning indicators for exceeding maximum Zero Fuel Weight (ZFW). It also resolves bugs related to the UNS-1 FMS, including anomalies during holding patterns and freezing when entering arrival procedures at certain airports. Visual improvements, such as fixing cabin window seal problems and missing components like the tail skid and air stairs handrail, enhance the aircraft’s fidelity and realism.
Furthermore, this update includes refinements for Xbox controller compatibility, improvements in cockpit texture reflectivity, and adjustments to radio displays to prevent clipping. It also ensures that various features, such as cabin announcements and crew sounds, are correctly disabled when flying cargo variants. Updates to the operations manual, EFB manual, and UNS-1 manual accompany the software improvements, providing users with comprehensive documentation for utilizing the aircraft’s features effectively.
