PMDG 777 and opus time compression

Featured Replies

There is no need to cut and paste anything. Press WIND DATA REQUEST on the WIND page in the airplane and it will automatically load these values into the FMC

Hi Cheryl

Just a quick question for my understanding: How does the FMC know which Opus generated WX file to load when pressing WIND DATA REQUEST ? I presume the WX file name has to match the PMDG flight plan RTE file name right?

Thanks for your excellent support!

Hi John

 

The PMDG wx filename specification is ICAO1ICAO2.wx where ICAO1 is the source ICAO and ICAO2 is the destination ICAO.

 

Regards

Cheryl

Ok then what if there is more than one wx file for the same ICAO source and destination? Which wx file will be used?

It will overwrite any existing file of the same name with the latest wind and temp wx file.

Ok makes sense. Looking forward to updating Opus and trying this feature out with the 777. Thanks!
