December 9, 200421 yr Hello!Does anyone know if the Queen of the sky will be equipped with:- FANS- GPS- CMC-FunctionsThank youWalter
December 11, 200421 yr "Does anyone know if the Queen of the sky will be equipped with:- FANS"Just guessing here....Probably not... unless there was someone sitting in a room somewhere to answer all your transmissions/requests. There are just too many request variations for AI to cope with."- GPS"Probably."- CMC-Functions"Which functions? It would take 100 years for PMDG to programme a fully functional, realistic CMC. To be honest, I don't think anyone outside of Boeing would have the expertise/knowledge to programme/test something like this. Even PS1's CMC only scratches the surface of the real thing.Hope this helps.Cheers.Ian.
December 11, 200421 yr Please Please!And what are the "FANS" and "CMC" ?Best regards,Armen at EGLLwww.veryquiet.com Armen L CholakianPMDG Sound Engineer
December 11, 200421 yr Armen - FANS - Short for fansy FMC. Nah, I think this stands for Future Air Navigation System. There is a FANS MCDU as an option to the Smith's FMS with a broader range interface to the FMC as well as additional sub-systems connected to the FMS.CMC - Haven't got a clue. Maybe Common Messaging Calls?Cheers, :-beerchug Mats JohanssonPMDG Flight Test Dept | Asus Z270-A | Intel i5-7600K @ 4.8 GHz OC/H2O | nVidia Geforce GTX 1070 8GB OC/O2|
December 11, 200421 yr Commercial Member CMC = Central Maintenance Computer. Probably extremely hard to do in simulation for MSFS. Even our Level D sim doesn't have a functioning CMC portion do to the shortfalls of Simulation vs Real Aircraft.RegardsPaul Gollnick :-cool Technical Operations/Customer Operational SupportPrecision Manuals Development Groupwww.precisionmanuals.comhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/devteam.jpg Paul Gollnick Manager Customer/Technical Support Precision Manuals Development Group www.precisionmanuals.com

December 12, 200421 yr Thanks for the info guys!:)Armen at EGLLwww.veryquiet.com Armen L CholakianPMDG Sound Engineer
December 12, 200421 yr Well if the 744 isn't going to have FANS or CMC then IMHO PMDG needs to make sure the Pogostick has it!:-) George Morris
December 12, 200421 yr Commercial Member I think the FANS option on the Pogo stick integrated with the Flower and the CMC should be ready for testing in about 5-7 yrs. :-)RegardsPaul Gollnick :-cool Technical Operations/Customer Operational SupportPrecision Manuals Development Groupwww.precisionmanuals.comhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/devteam.jpg Paul Gollnick Manager Customer/Technical Support Precision Manuals Development Group www.precisionmanuals.com
