User experiences for MSFS2024 have been mixed, with some people encountering differences and others seemilngly flying free. Some points can become outdated quickly, and you may well see me struggling over a problem that you have the answer for. I will include a section below for clarifications and corrections. Do let me know if a reset using the Control Bindings Folder does indeed work. I have not had to try it, although I have had times when I have had to reset one or two conroller inputs. The original suggestion came from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcn-ZpWehQc (BigAl'sPlayin), so a shout out to him. Corrections and Clarifications: @shawnkimball5019 if you Abort a mission, the mission disappears and you can't try it again. Can be frustrating for rare missions like VIP. Using Escape then Alt+F4 to kill the game preserves the mission on the map when you reload. @Subicsaint64 When using the Sim Rate at 4 clicks above normal flight, to avoid missing a ATC transmission, keep up the communication window. It will "Grey Out" at the bottom prior to ATC talking to you. This will enable you to quickly reduce your Sim Rate down so that you will hear the clearance and be able to respond. @TeezyThaKidd agh the visual assistances toggle is a godsend, thank you btw you can "pull" the HDG knob on the G1000 to set the current heading, this way you avoid having to crank it the first time if you're flying a completely different heading. smooth engagement :) Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 1:35 Top 20 Charts 4:28 - 1 Check and Save Your Control Bindings 5:40 - 2 Understanding Certification, Specialization, and Missions 10:25 - 3 Adjust Time and Weather to Your Advantage 10:50 - 4 Choose Missions That Earn You the Greatest Payout 12:00 - 5 Reputation is Gold 13:17 - 6 Obey the Mission Steps: They’re Your Frenemy 14:29 - 7 Toggle Off Visual Assistances for More Immersion 15:05 - 8 Essential Camera Views 15:40 - 9 Don’t Skip the Taxi Ride 16:45 - 10 Keep Your Sense of Direction in an Airport 17:52 - 11 Crucial Speeds for Takeoff, Climb, and Gliding (example) 19:02 - 12 Autopilot 23:15 - 13 Autopilot Plus Navigation 24:45 - 14 Autopilot Plus Navigation Plus Increased Sim-Rate 29:10 - 15 Don’t Exceed Flap Speeds: Keep Your Underwear in Check 29:40 - 16 Dealing with Strange Mission Commands 30:40 - 17 Don’t Be Afraid to Go Around 31:41 - 18 Bad Weather Isn’t All Bad 32:11 - 19 Escape and Abort or Restart.

From optimizing control settings to mastering in-game strategies, each point is designed to save you time and enhance your virtual piloting skills. I begin by highlighting the importance of checking and even saving your control bindings to prevent unexpected resets. (As you work through your aircraft some will need checking and setting at the very least). Next, we discuss certifications and specializations, which unlock advanced missions and aircraft, and explore how adjusting time and weather settings can improve flight conditions and unlock new missions. Choosing the right missions for higher payouts and maintaining a good reputation will accelerate your progression and unlock better opportunities. Following mission steps and toggling off visual assistances will enhance your immersion and ensure mission success. We cover essential camera views for situational awareness, taxiing techniques for realism, and staying oriented in complex airports. Knowing crucial V-speeds for takeoff, climb, and gliding is key to safety, and mastering autopilot and navigation systems will save time and effort. The example I am using here is the C172 Skyhawk - but mention of this may at least encourage people to check their speeds and limits before taking off. Sim-rate adjustments, flap speed limitations, and handling cryptic mission commands are explored in detail. Being prepared for go-arounds and embracing bad weather as a learning tool will help you become a more confident pilot. Lastly, using the Escape function and understanding bug workarounds ensures smoother missions.
