    Will this work with the G3000 equiped Citation CJ3+ by LivToAir?

    That aircraft already uses this code to add the electronic checklist in MSFS 2020

    Ah, didn't know. I'm still thinking on buying it. Thanks for the clarification

    Is there a issue with running this with the simbrief addon? for some reason its on bottom row causing 5 button row and it goes off screen.

    Thanks for the report, I worked with the Navigraph guys directly and with the latest version of this and their addon the compatibility is fixed

    Any chance of making this MSFS 2024 compatible?

    It could be made compatible, but since the version 2 of the G3000 in 2024 now natively supports electronic checklist I preferred not to update to avoid future conflicts. Right now it is not working, but hopefully WorkingTitle will fix it in sim update 1.
    Edit: electronic checklists are now working in MSFS 2024

    What do I do with the Garmin Checklist File (SF50-STRD-39723-005A.gcl) file that I got from Cirrus?

    Thanks for the support! You don't need to download the gcl file as I already converted it, I linked it for who wants to know the source. Just download the package, unzip it and move it inside the community folder

    good job

    This is a great add-on and I would appreciate some advice ....
    I am using it with the standard Asobo Daher TBM and have managed to operate the checklist using the standard "Cockpit Interaction Increase/decrease" and "Cockpit Interaction Secondary Action" commands, assigning these to my joystick. This works well but only when the mouse is hovering over the MFD knob and it is showing blue. If the mouse is not on the knob, the functions are inactive. Is there a way to make the checklist the "active window" so far as the Cockpit Interaction commands are concerned?
    Or am I approaching this the wrong way? I didn't understand the references to H Events etc.
    Many thanks

    Unfortunately, in MSFS the only way to assign those knobs directly to a joystick is via H events. The cockpit interactions are only acting on the knob selected with the mouse. If, instead, your intention is to assign one of the GTC knobs directly to your joystick, you have to use the H events provided by Working Title. Another option is to simulate a dedicated checklist button/wheel, and this can be achieved by using the H events I have provided in the description. To assign H events, you need one of the many external programs that allow for this functionality.

    Thanks for the info.....I guess it is always a challenge to work within the structure that MSFS delivered. Now I need to do some more research as I am sure it will be worth it!

    Hi, dear developer!
    Great Add-on. Checked it today within the Longitude. Works perfect.
    I only have one issue so far:
    Assigned it to my joystick via the H:variables as mentioned above.
    Works great. BUT, when I press the FLIGHTPLAN Button on the (left) GTC, the PFD display where actually the map ist displayed changes to the CHECKLIST. Only the FP button causes the sudden change to CL display - no other button does so.
    Information: Left PFD is in split mode. On the right side of the splitted PFD I have normally the map displayed and change it to CL display when necessary.
    Can you help?
    Kind regards

    Hi Robert,
    first, thank you for your kind donation!
    I have tried to replicate the bug you are describing without success, so please reply with a step-by-step guide on how to reproduce it.
    The only times the checklist display should show up in a pane are by either pressing the Checklist button in a GTC or via the AS3000_Electronic_Checklist_[index]_Push H event.

    [SOLVED]
    Luca, the workaround works fine. The issue is away when I firstly display weather or traffic and then go back to map display. Thereafter there is no change to CL display when I push the FP button on the GTC.
    Thanks alot for this great add-on! Enriches the expierience with the Longitude immense!

    Hi Luca,
    I guess I found a workaround. It doesn't appear when I choose at first the weather or the traffic display for example. After that the issue doesn't occur any more. Was a first test. I will go on checking it.
    Thanks for the quick reply!
    Kind regards
