December 17, 200421 yr What aircraft does this MCP belong to?This is a jpeg of a dfx file I downloaded from a website I visited long ago, but can't remember what plane.Have checked 727, 737, 747, 757, 767 and 777. (I'm sure it's boeing)Help would be greatly appreciated.David
December 17, 200421 yr Hmm, I notice it doesn't have a vnav or an lnav - so something pre-fmc?The avro have the same kind of mcp - but it's not that as that has vnav and lnav as well now, although on the older bae146 the lnav was never operational as far as I know.
December 17, 200421 yr Hahaha, I know for sure exactly what it is !It comes from a Nauwa Jet-liner that belongs to Novel-Air.I made the drawing for my sim, it should look realistic but not as an exact copy of existing MCP, seems like I managed to do it :-)
December 17, 200421 yr It looks quite close to the 737-200. Those have two autopilots though and your drawing only has one.Regards.-------Scottiehttp://www.airliners.net/open.file/710241/M/
December 19, 200421 yr Johan,Thank you, I have visited your site and obviously downloaded the files thinking it was a 777 mcp. For the life of me, I couldn't remember were I got the files from. I have been trying to use it on my cnc machine to make panels until I realised that it was different. Doe!Can you tell me the simplest way to make either .plt or dfx files for the 777?Thanks in advance.David
December 20, 200421 yr >has vnav and lnav as well now, although on the older bae146>the lnav was never operational as far as I know.Wrong :)Bae146 are (can be) equipped with working FMCs and LNAV :)Mistral Air (MSA) is currently operating 2 or 3 of them, and i've actually did a flight in the jumpseat and could withstand the presence and functionality of those strange FMCs.Each plane has only one module.

Blue1 at least has a pretty modern cockpit on their Avro'shttp://tigert.gimp.org/tigert-albums/spotting/aec.sized.jpeg//Tuomas
December 20, 200421 yr I never said they didn't have fmc, as they do have them - but from what I have heard, the older style bae's did not utilise the lnav - though I can be wrong.The newer models - specifically have a very 737 looking mcp.Both panels that I have used - the eurowings and the baepanelproject.com panels do not use the lnav - and in the manual of the baepanelproject one specifically says that it wasn't realised in the real bae.But considering you've been in one - you've probably got a better idea than I do as with FS stuff, you're never to sure.
December 20, 200421 yr >I never said they didn't have fmc, as they do have them - but>from what I have heard, the older style bae's did not utilise>the lnav - though I can be wrong.Mistral operates old Bae 146-200QT with analog cockpit.They are equipped with LNAV, and the FMCs, from what i can see in the pic, is the same of the above pictured EFIS cockpit.
