Thanks tiger1962! I have watched the two instructional videos from the link you provided and this is definitely more involved than what I have been doing, in terms of entering/deleting waypoints in the flight plan. I'm used to the simplified version where the whole plan could be flown without having to enter anything. I also don't really use the VNAV and am used to getting ATC instructions on altitude changes and making those myself. Anyway, I'll study the guide and manual. The tutorials were excellent in showing how to make those entries in the system, I just need to get familiar and then practice. If I get lazy, I can still fly the Captain Sim 777 . Cheers!

I have the same issues as budreiser since last update. My aircraft of choice is 747-8i. It flies the flight plan just fine on AP for only part of the route and then I have to take over. The update did FIX my HDG function, which has never worked for me since the original 2020 release (unless I changed to legacy mode, but then I had to manually enter ILS frequencies). While I can appreciate that many users want to enter/load their own more realistic flight plans, I prefer just letting msfs2020 build my route and me only choosing the runways and SID/STAR. Some other things that used to work now don't, but I'll not get into those. It seems that with every update, something that used to work doesn't anymore. The other aircraft I like to fly is the Captain Sim 777-200 ER. I only mention that because the flight plan still works just fine from takeoff to touchdown when I fly that.

Thank you PEIRascal, Was having same problem and your suggestion worked! Every update is an adventure!

After downloading the newest update, I've made two flights and in both cases my altitude is not what ATC thinks I am at. ATC was also busy telling all the AI traffic that they were below their assigned altitude. Anyone else having this problem?

I have the same question. Sometimes my landings are not recorded. What I can say is that some of the landings not recorded have been particularly hard landings. For example when the 787 pitches down with no elevator control on final (I figured out it will do that if you're not maintaining at least 145 knots or something like that), or when the app button decides to turn itself off on the 747 and you have to take control before you're ready.
