FAQs

Why is there no INS system and an FMC instead?
The WASM gauges required to model Concorde's INS do not work on Xbox at this time. The INS will be added later when this is possible.
Why can't I reach Mach 2 and 60,000ft no matter how carefully I try?
Because the real Concorde didn't either. In summer, the upper atmosphere was often warm enough that Mach 2 was not possible. MSFS is realistic enough i...

Nor would the real Concorde if it was flown like that. A proper climb profile is required, as per the manual and checklist instructions. Concorde has to be...

Yes, it will. 408,000lbs is the maximum - Concorde has slightly more tank capacity than fuel, to allow that fuel to move around. If you  just fill it to 10...

Why won't the ILS detect a Localiser or track in when using Autoland?
It will. The problem is that MSFS likes an airplane to intercept a localiser as far from the airport as possible. Accurate intercepts for ILS in this manner...
