Dear Aerofly Alpha testers,

We updated the Alpha once again, fixing many of the bugs you reported :)

Please verify that the following issues are now resolved on your end as well:

2020-08-04

  • Fixed A320 and LJ45 reversers working again
  • Fixed CDU and CAS text display working correctly again
  • Fixed C90GTx airspeed indicator now receives data again
  • Fixed Nearest airports, VORs, waypoints and NDBs bearing indications are magnetic again
  • Fixed A320 MCDU origin runway now labeled correctly as origin + rwy and no longer destination + rwy
  • Changed Next waypoint identifier now aircraft specific (e.g. KSAN09 instead of 09)
  • Added Autopilot and copilot can now fly arc segments (e.g. KPSP R13RZ approach)

The advanced autopilot (A320, B777, LJ45, etc. - not the C172, B58 autopilot) should now be able to fly the entire route laterally without any issues.

Please test this as well with longer routes as we can’t test every possible combination.
