The following is not to be read as a criticism of the aircraft or Majestic as I found Majestic support to be very prompt and helpful. More details available on Majestic's website at

Wind prediction input isn't yet modelled but coming soon (but doesn't make a deal of difference on most flights as legs are generally short)Ĭompared to the real aircraft, the FMS in the pilot edition of the Majestic MJC8 Q400 is missing RAIM (if you don't know what this is then you don't need to worry), Equal Time Point (ETP) and Point of No Return (PNR) functions, ARINC weather (requesting METARs through the FMS) and FMS maintenance functions. just like the Q400 in reality, the fuel predictions won't read correctly until you are levelled off in the cruise. The FMS has limited ability to do performance calculations and fuel predictions. The aircraft has no autothrottle but FADEC will do much of the power setting for you. VNAV is for descent only and will not manage speed. You get LNAV with RNP but not the level you would in a Boeing or Airbus, for example the route on the ND is drawn as series of straight lines, instead of smooth curves with optional overfly. What you really need to be asking is does the real Q400 have what you asked for, the answer to which is maybe. Performance is at least comparable and often better than other sophisticated airliners for FSX.

The Majestic Q400 is one of the most complete addons on the market for FSX in terms of what is simulated.
