PMDG 777 thought

[thebigmanwiththeplan 0]

Hey guys.I was thinking, do you think it will be possible for the pmdg 777 to have the com feature on the Multi Function Display. It would be pretty cool on community like vatsim or ivao to get clearances by text or get atis or something!

That would be neat, I think it would be great to have the message thing on the fmc aswell along with the 200 ER LR LRF and 300 ER variants!! :)

I thought about the same thing the other day! I think in the Just Planes Air Canada 777-300 video it showed how that type of thing works.

That would be incredible! If anyone can pull it off, it would be PMDG. :D

correct me if i am wrong but this system is known as data link?

[MVelasquez 12]

Yup.

[thebigmanwiththeplan 0]

and does it work in all airports? and if not when do you use it?

[MVelasquez 12]

This pretty much sums it up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACARS

It's a CPDLC/ACARS used for getting clearance.It is actually used a lot now days for clearances, and position reports over the atlantic.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controller_Pilot_Data_Link_Communicationshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACARSYou will be able to use it with flight simulator, but I guess it should be a module used on vatsim aswell then.

Sounds like a very good feature +1 for IVAO :)

Ah yes CPDLC
