Documented highlights

Career configuration changed in Sim Update 4

Microsoft’s release notes removed passenger and flightseeing specialisations and recorded fixes for cargo and construction checks. These are changes documented for version 1.6.32.0.

Loading into flight received a specific fix

The same update added saved-flight collective values to address immediate descent when loading or skipping into flight. It also revised the GNS530 connection to the HSI and corrected altimeter issues.

External work includes a supporting ground scene

The X-Trident listing includes external loads, cargo dropping, animated ground crew and a custom fuel truck. Load configurations can be saved and recalled, giving the package activities beyond transporting passengers.

Control hardware has a configuration choice

The documented AFCS supports both self-centring and non-centring joysticks. The package also lists a four-axis autopilot and VOR, TACAN, ADF and GPS navigation, with custom control panels.
