September 25, 201213 yr Hi Bryan, Similar to the Emergency NGX addon you are releasing, would you consider a "First Officer" addon for the NGX? I've seen a number of airline videos where the first officer is flying the plane under the captain's guidance, so we wouldn't need to worry about the AI not being able to fly the plane issue. You already have the flows and procedures, it's just a matter of switching them over. Plus the FMC would have to be done by the human as well, but with flightplan imports etc it's no big deal. If combined with RAAS, the Captain could actually give you orders. For example "Abort Takeoff", "Go around, do not land" etc based upon the stability, runway lengths, all the things RAAS gives. Flying as "Captain" in an FS2Crewed airplane I feel that I lose touch with the airplane and I can't go back and fly the plane on my own so easily. To be able to swap seats occasionally as they do in real life would be something special.
September 25, 201213 yr Commercial Member It's something I've considered, but it's very complex to make the FO the Pilot Flying for the whole flight. Each flight would have to be totally scripted, and it would be easy for something to go wrong especially throwing the flight out of whack. Cheers, B.
