Will the 777 have the RAT ?

[Guest]

I expect the RAT to be in properly modeled and fully functional, correct ?

[aceridgey 330]

I don;t know.

 

I don't even think they are modeling the wings on this release,

 

I even heard that auto brakes were too hard to model, so they are reverting to users having to apply the parking brake on touch down.

The MD-11 had it. Why wouldn't the 777?

For PMDG, I'd certainly hope so. I think we can be assured it will be modelled and functional.

If it flys into SE Asia, it will most deffinately have rats. :lol:

@ scandinavian13 RAT is modeled at the MD-11 ??

Sure is, even in the FS9 version.

It's called by a different name (ADG), but you'll find a red handle at the back of the pedestal. Pull it. BOOM: ADG. Just make sure you don't pull it if you don't need it.

Both RAT and ADG are correct==ram air turbine, air driven generator

Thank you all I will give it a try... any speed limitations I should be aware of ??

I understand the terminology, and the concepts, however, if you're looking for a handle that says "RAT," you're not going to find it on your copy of the PMDG MD-11.

Kyle,

Why on earth would you want a "RAT" running around your aircraft? Again, entertaining myself... Lol. I will go out on a limb here. Hopefully, RSR & Ryan don't shoot the messenger. Yes, the T7 will have the "RAT". If it can be done PMDG will do it. I tend to think with all the silence around here PMDG is cooking up something special...! I am guessing Santa is going to need a bigger bag to hold all his gifts. Or, maybe hang up the sleigh and ride a shiny new T7 that would be my preference. Would the real RSR please stand up . All of us here at Avsim would love to hear from you. Even if its just a "hello guys all is well and things are moving forward".

I remember climbing out of MEM on the 11....had to deploy and make an emergency landing in DFW.

I don't think his reindeer or his bag can handle a load that big...

I think the quietness means they are either laughing their butts off at us or they are just being lazy (kidding of course)... No, I agree, I think something bigger than the NGX is cooking at the moment.

No RAT just mice!
