Threshold

Quick summary· AI-generated

The A340-600 Pro receives a significant update migrating it to MSFS 2024's native modular SimObject architecture, improving performance and compatibility. New features include a customizable turbulence model, pinned Navigraph charts in the EFB, SimBrief integration without INIT B population, and support for SayIntentions CPDLC and hardware controllers like WINCTRL's FCU/MCDU panels. Bug fixes address taxi camera issues post-SU5, FCU button freezes after replay, MAN FLEX engine-failure handling, and mouse-click responsiveness in the Navigraph EFB.

Excerpt from Threshold

Aerosoft and ToLiss have released version 1.0.3 for the A340-600 Pro, with the aircraft now being migrated to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024’s native modular SimObject structure, along with several bug fixes.

The taxi camera has been reimplemented, following compatibility issues with Sim Update 5.

Alongside that, the team has added a new custom turbulence model, with adjustable intensity through the EFB. Display refresh rate is now user-selectable as well.

If you are a Navigraph user, you can now pin your charts and quick access airports directly from within the EFB, and issues related to mouse click response and a 30-second chart download delay have also been fixed.

You can now import from SimBrief without populating the “INIT B” page, and the “Always use SimBrief winds” option has been removed, as SimBrief is now the aircraft’s only source for wind data.

An issue with MAN FLEX after an engine failure during flex take-offs has been solved, and the bug that froze FCU buttons after using replay mode has been fixed.

A new episode of the “A340 situations” series was also released. Watch it below:

Certain input events, including terrain proximity warnings, are now inhibited during replay, allowing the aircraft to continue in the same state afterwards.

Version 1.0.3 has also added support for SayIntentions CPDLC and FSCopilot, along with compatibility for WINCTRL’s FCU and MCDU hardware.

WINCTRL has, on their side, confirmed a firmware update to implement full compatibility by June 18.
