Many like the A330 from the engine sound too

I recommend the devs plan (I know that if you have seen me post this many times, but it would really improve Aerofly):

More customizable graphics settings (Aside from presets, there should also be custom tidbits like render distance, texture detail, lighting detail, ..., just like in the PC version.

This would allow users with a variety of hardware to enjoy the sim.

The devs should urgently address the time slowing (time dilation) problem with low FPS. It has not appeared before and is a very annoying issue, considering many users had a reasonable FPS for their hardware before but now are forced to suffer with low frames on lower graphics seftings.

Perhaps a new rendering engine (universal), models, aircraft optimization could also help. This is the one feature that simmers of all levels would benefit from.

Probably just normal behavior. In the real world, I see videos of A350 HUDs flickering subtly

What exactly is Thermal activity in the settings

Autopilot in the cockpit itself

Sometimes, on a random flight, with the switches set up correctly and the aircraft is in takeoff configuration, when I try to use autothrottle especially during cruise, descent, and landing, the logic slowly pulls it towards IDLE and I lose speed, even with the speed set at 440kts IAS or with MACH HOLD/IAS HOLD (the ones on the left side of the panel). The bug begins during the cruise phase and continues for the rest of the flight. Restarting the sim SOMETIMES helps.

I've tried every tip in this thread but the FPS continues to reduces as the flight continues. I am starting to think that this is an optimization problem or glitch because this never happened before the December update.

Also happens to me, reducing graphics settings would be sacrificing the experience for a few extra frames per second. EVER SINCE versions after v01.05.01.08 I believe, I was forced to switch from HIGH to LOW graphics, not to mention the game-breaking time dilation with low FPS that easily slows your long-haul flight by HOURS. Sure, my device is not the best of all, but if it could achieve a playable FPS before even in the A350, then it must be an optimization problem. It overheats even more now even tanking my FPS even more in the most modest commercial airliners like the 747. Devs should urgently address the performance issues as a priority before working on other 'optional' features like new aircraft, and such.

Well, might have to lower from Ultra to maybe HIGH, MEDIUM, or even LOW. Aircraft lights are KNOWN to be very demanding in this sim. Kind of surprising that even those with phones that should run Aerofly well are struggling with a relatively simple QOL enhancement (Aircraft/taxi lights) that has been made complex for realism.

When I put real-world values on the Concorde (~90 tons fuel, ~11 tons payload), the aircraft very much struggled to climb and just stalls and descends, even with afterburners.

I agree, also, introduce dynamic winds that change with area and elevation. There could be random winds or even better, real-time winds.

I agree, also, regarding sunrise and sunset, there should be the realistic effect where the Earth's shadow is disappearing/appearing, not just the atmosphere fading out uniformly. During sunrise, the sky transitions from Nautical Twilight to Civil Twilight abruptly, with the sky suddenly changing from brown to orange. This is very unrealistic behavior. I frequently fly the Concorde and realistic skies would DEFINITELY enhance my experience of the sensation of "time travel" considering that Concorde's speed is faster than Earth's rotation. I might as well suggest ADD the MILKY WAY to our night skies. Night flights would be certainly beautiful with it.

There should be more white noise to be honest with the engine sounds. Should not be TOO hard to add.

If we have a custom livery maker, then not too many people would ask for new liveries from the devs. This would free up time for the devs to focus on more important features and bug fixes, since players would be the ones making the liveries. It would be a win-win if this was added to the sim

Trying to fly from NYC to Singapore and the T/D is also broken. Happens mainly on ultra long-hauls.

There is another isaue when in navigation and you search a VOR as a waypoint it doestn't search instead it goes back to the depature airport, this only happens when searching VOR what could be the problem

Well for any waypoint, for example, if I center my navigation (in-game) map near London and I search a waypoint near London, it would show the wrong distance (e.g. 3000 NM). This has not happened before

It would be a nice touch in the sim if aircraft had realistic, more 'pixelated' fonts just like real life.

Will this update have improved performance / adjustable sliders to meet player's need based on their hardware and some bug fixes / QOL improvements? For example, when exiting the app and resuming a Concorde flight, it splits it into two separate legs instead of one continuous leg in the Concorde log book.

Does this mean we get fuel that actually drains during flight, and also an option for infinite fuel?

We should have a feature where players can use custom liveries created by players.

Update your Aerofly FS. Those planes have been there for quite some time in the default game
