Failed B737 Mission for entering plane
This is new, selected a B737 mission, SFO to LAX and when I entered the plane, I immediately failed the mission for entering a taxiway without permission. I hit next, and I immediately failed it again for doing nothing. I even got a hit on my reputation for it.

Well known. Non of the passengers transport missions works.
With the 737 you have a chance of 2 out of 10 that it fails.
With the ES-30 an dthe Saab 340 you have a chance of 9 out of 10 that it fails.

It is still somewhat unbelieveable to me how this team could program a whole working correct physical based simulations and breathtaking environement and lighting but fail so misserable in basic game programming release more than half aircrafts not working and build a career with very limited selected few planes all with issues and then not bothering to fix anything for months.

This can't be the same people. Wonder a bit if they hired some of the modern audience coders to code the career. That would explain a lot.
I agree. I suspect that the problem rests with a particular group who may not be all that qualified to do the job, yet for some reason the upper echelon isn't allowed to replace them.

I had this three times in a row. But then I just picked another airport close by, and tried a mission there (fingers crossed ofcourse) and luckily at that airport I had no problems.
I have had a mission, if I clicked on it, I went straight to Desktop, it was just this specific mission, I tried couple of times, but everytime straight to desktop.
So sadly yeah, there are probably some "buggy" airports and missions.
I have encountered so many of them, that at one point I kinda know, okay, if I do this, then i will get an error, so next try, I don't do it and let's see.

I had 737, and first mistake was that I had only basic insurance, then after errors etc, I had to grind medium cargo mission again, to get at least 40- 50 million to repair my 737....

I was so mad at one point, almost smashed everything to pieces here..

but then I told myself, I don't gonna let this game beat me. I also rather play the whole game, do boarding, taxiing, the whole stuff, but for now, it is better to skip and land as quickly as possible and grap these credits :)

Again, it is fingers crossed everytime that you won't get this mission failure or other errors.


Last time when I skipped to descent (this only happened one time in about 50 flights) My whole aircraft 737 was spinning like crazy almost crashing, but I managed to press start/ pause quick enough. Funny thing was, when I pressed abort, nothing happened. so then I press back to main menu, and that worked. (afterwards I could pick the same mission again haha, but nah, I didn't want to risk again, so I searched close by and picked another mission)

So good advice, if you are getting errors or fails at some kind of airport, don't keep trying, just find and hopefully find a "good"spot for mission, where you don't get the error or failure



So be prepared, you will encouter a lot of errors for now, or just wait for this "big" update...


Oh yeah, and I don't maintain my passive income aircrafts anymore, maybe one or two planes, but the premium insurance of the 737 is expensive, so after all I result in a little bit negative. But I don't care, the amount of credits you get with 737 is way more profitable, so yeah, I don't maintain my aircrafts any more.

Tried passenger transport mission yesterday with the Saab 340 from large airports

Of 2 attemtps:
2 mission fails on entering the cockpit with landing gear break

back to pc-24 medium cargo transport.. but it is so anyoing that you have to search for the 1 out of 10 missions that is flayable in europe (rwy length)
ended back flying in the Sahara

Thanks for the advice Roachclip. Sad thing was that mission was a B737 out of SFO to LAX. I had practiced that flight in the free flight section of the game so I can pass it. Then the auto fail and that mission is now gone.

yeahh it is ffff upped... I luckily managed to do a few missions with the Saab few weeks ago, but I quickly stopped with it, too much risk for error.
I had to manually pull the lever everytime so I could use my rudder.

ES-30 too yeah, I'm hard to convince myself. So after the first time when this plane goes bonkers backwards, I was like, nah, it is my laptop, it is my fault, i did something wrong.
So I grind back cr with medium cargo, try again, some bonkers stuff happens. And still something inside me said, no, try again.
So 3 times I had my ES-30 repaired, just to see it bonkers fly backwards.

So you can kinda imagine how much I had to grind everytime to get my credits back.


Just imagine this video, but then think of MSFS 2024..... I play this game and drink beers, so when I saw this youtube video come up yesterday in my suggestions, I was like wtf haha, this is me, but then MSFS

What I've noticed is that the missions reset every week I think, so after 7 days the mission should be back. (for example, the challenge league, resets every monday morning 08:00 AM my time)
I now have the feeling I did the same missions again.

Until now all the flights I did to LAX were ok. I recorded luckily one.

I just record a new video, but my talking was not recorded, so you can not hear me explain the things I do. I hope things get clear while watching it and follow it.
https://youtu.be/bZt2uB1E1Tg
Did just another one with the 737. I'm not recording anymore, takes too much space on my laptop.
And most of the time when not recording I fly better :P ., when I record stuff to show you, I always f up, have stress. I want to help out and want to record the perfect shot.... it somehow gives me pressure when recording when I want to help you out how I do it

Just to share on what I gathered from msfs forums and reddit , in order to fly ES-30 successfully

1. Dont edit the EFB, dont change anything at all, otherwise will crashed on boarding with some damage sometimes.

2. Open the left door yourself, dont auto skip etc. otherwise might crash also. Auto skip is buggy for some planes, so far i encountered immediate nose dive or bug on take off, or you have crashed

3. When want to begin taxi to takeoff, turn off electric Engine 2 ,3 , let it stop its propeller spinning before moving your throttle from idle. IF you fail to turn off the engine and throttle up, you will go instantly backwards. With parking brake, your plane will move(fly up) and back (unrealistic but well , if you manage to pull back in time , you might be able to save your plane from gear damage or crashed). Just taxi with engine 1 and 4, then upon reaching runway, parking brake to on. Restart engine 2 and 3 and take off. The bug is when first time start in game when you board the plane, both 2,3 engines are in reverse state. if you throttle up , you will reverse immediately and crashed. So it is important to turn them off, wait for the props to stop , then only restart both engine 2, 3.

4. Wireless external power is your friend in this aircraft. In ES-30, you will run out of battery (high batt - engine 2 and 3, low batt is your avionics). Turn on external power for both low and high. For High, turn off all the batteries on the left side FC Bus 345. Right side group B 678 will run out of batt and for some reason will take group A electricity without draining them :P . Engine 3 will shut off once group B battery exhausted, but just turn one one of Group A batteries and turn off one of Group B batteries to turn back on engine 3, then do the reverse, turn on the group B battery and turn off group A battery. Note on the engine 3 still running without powering down. Batt 8 powers/linked to engine 2, never turn off this batt

5. Throttle set back to IDLE will immediately set engines into reverse state, good for stopping(even better stopping distance than smaller plane lol), but not landing. when starting engine 2,3 make sure your throttles are not idle else you go backwards.

6. Dont put max sim time on autopilot, you will see the plane wobbling or electric engines cutoff sometimes and also your speed (sometimes due to engine 3 cutoff (repeat step 4 turn on and off the batteries, so far i encounter 2 times I need to redo the sequence, otherwise usually it will last indefinitely)

Have fun flying! flew around 12 missions on ES-30 now on different airports in Asia without any crashing and just bought my 2nd ES-30 while grinding for 737. though I wasted 8 mil in repair cost before figuring out all the bugs above.
