Over the last couple of days I have been putting together a new (freeware) tool for PMDG's B747-400F that you can download via this link: www.liljendal.dk/flightsim/RandomCockpitB744.zipNormally when you are doing your Initial Cockpit Preparaion it is a dull no-brainer as every button is where you left it the last time (as it was saved in the Flight/Panel-states). When it comes to flying a long flight over several sections this is a good thing, but when it comes to entering the same "Dark and Cold" cockpit on EVERY flight its becomed abit "dull". Basically this tool lets you specify the probabillity of what should could/should change and then it inject these changes into a "default dark and cold" panel-state. So next time you enter your cockpit you don't know what to expect.Enjoy,http://jdtllc.com/images/rcv4bannerbeta.jpgPelle F. S. Liljendal

interesting little trick!- Neeraj.

is it working for the regular 744 too?@lex

It is made for- and tested with the B747-400F however it will work fine with the pax version. Looking at the overhead for the 2 planes there is little difference, and its only these few differences that will be missing (not a big deal).Perhaps in a future update I will deal with those few issues.http://jdtllc.com/images/rcv4bannerbeta.jpgPelle F.
