To all you Beta testers...

[Guest takki113]

Hello,Im wondering what are the small little details that u can see in the virtual cockpit in the 744. I read that like u can see pop cans move, or you can close the yellow shades on the windows and other little features which add to the realism. Can u tell me what all little things like that we can expect in the VC?

Hi there,Yep I would like to know that too. Allso it had been announced that part of the passenger cabin would be accessible...some shots would be nice.Greets,Jeroen

Things I've noticed:1. You can move the seats back and to the side along their tracks.2. The seat arm rests move up and down.3. You can lower/raise the sun visors on the side windows.4. PMDG "Jet C" soda cans spin around.5. Flight manuals can be moved on the shelves.6. Yoke can be shortened by clicking it so that it doesn't block your view of the PFD/ND.This is in addition to every single button and switch in the VC being animated. For example, you push one of the fuel crossfeed switches and you actually see it depress in and out as if your finger pushed it in. No more flat bitmaps folks! I'm really not doing much flying during testing from the 2D panel at all - the VC is that good. At this point the two most impressive VC's I have are this 747 and the new 04 RealAir SF.260 - should tell you what kind of company this plane will be in.

Gotta say I disagree here, I'm looking forward to finding all these things out for myself. It's a bit like going to see a film, I wouldn't want people to tell me about all the good bits, I'd rather discover them for myself, it's half the fun, right?EDIT: Oh well looks like I was too late, Ryan's gone and let all the cat's out the bag :-lol, no worries I'm sure there are a few more. (Despite what I said I couldn't help but look!)

Well,there's a pretty big easter egg out there, well hidden, even from those pesky beta testers... I am actually waiting for someone to find it... but I am not holding my breath! :-)

Just make sure it is close to my home, PGSN, you can find a lovely lady floating around that airport, still flying between PGSN and PGTN.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/800driver.jpg
