March 30, 201412 yr After watching video no5 I've just realised that the switches are all upside down. Is this some kind of special configuration for Lufthansa? If so I wonder why didn't they model the standard "down for on" that we're all used to with the 737 PIC and NGX etc.

Due to popular demand we will ship the release version with the "standard" switch direction, until you guys all see the light... B) All the best, Jan
March 30, 201412 yr That is correct, that is the LH configuration, it is a tribute to Jan and LH who made this project possible.We will install the "normal" version prior to release, not a huge operation. EDIT: Jan beat me to itM Morten Melhuus

March 30, 201412 yr If we can find a good practical and performance solution - maybe, but probably not for v 1.0 anyway. We'll be doing a couple of retro livery's as well. http://ixeg.net/images/phocagallery/exterior_pics/DLretro2.jpg M Morten Melhuus
March 30, 201412 yr This is a true work of art and will only get better as you refine before release! Just a few quick questions; what development work remains? Are all major systems completed? Alaister Kay
March 30, 201412 yr Gentlemen, thank you so much for your replies. Excellent news about the switches! Thoroughly enjoy watching and rewatching Jan's videos, with his snippets of real-life experience that you don't see in your average tutorial.
March 31, 201412 yr It is maybe a false feeling, but when at flare, I think that the A/T is pulling the throttle to idle too fast. It should slowly retard to idle. Stephane LI-THIAO-TE Envoyé de mon iPad à l'aide de Tapatalk Location : FMEE

Stephane LI-THIAO-TE Envoyé de mon iPad à l'aide de Tapatalk Bon jour, iI am controlling the thrust levers manually (with my joystick throttle) at that point. If you look at video no. 4 you can see that I am deselecting speed mode before I also disconnect the autopilot - I am therefore in complete manual flight, both yoke and thrust levers. You can also verify this on the FMA column on the top of the EADI - the only annunciation is in the autothrottle column - it says ARM, which means the autothrottle is armed and could take over if engaged (either by selecting an approppriate mode manually, or in a reversion mode if the airplane gets too fast or too slow). Best regards, Jan This is a true work of art and will only get better as you refine before release! Just a few quick questions; what development work remains? Are all major systems completed? Hi ALaister, all major systems are completed except for the route part of the FMS. There are still a bunch of small tasks to complete, some "cosmetic", like opening doors, GUI, some more sound work and of course we need to polish the documentation. The bulk of that is there, though. Regards, Jan
March 31, 201412 yr Looking at the blog, if I'm not mistaken you are adding a 737-300 winglet version? :wub: http://www.ixeg.net/blog/item/32-project-status Do you have any screenies of this, I don't see any in the gallery?
