Because then you can't fly RNAV, which is becoming more and more of a requirement now a days.

Then, why not a fully functional EHSI?

Lol!

 

Argh yes Bill is right... MV does offer all variants with the FMS. I just never use the older one with the FMS as it makes no sense. Perhaps RWF was using the SP77 with the FMS? In that case there's not a great way of telling course deviation other than looking at the next track to waypoint.

 

EHSI - that's 737-300/400/500 territory....

Ive come to the conclusion I'm just looking for a good high quality 3,4 and 500 series.

You guys are aware of the fact that the early 737 classics already had the FMS with the CDUs of the later models but still had the old style HSI and ADI? That's definitely all you need to have full awareness!

Yeah, I flew on a SWA 737 classic into KLAX from KLAS a couple springs back....

Yep - Alaska few two of these planes for years with FMS installed but with the steam driven HSI...infact, they were one of the combi/gravel kit models that MLVis used as the starting point for the 737.

I vote for Milviz, bought at pre-order and have been happy with the airplane, plus so many updates and fixes. Instead of CS release then drop off the map and ignore everyone.

If nothing else, this thread convinced me to pull the MV 737 out of the hangar and fly it for a bit! :lol:
