Just came across an issue, am enroute to LEBL - max landing weight, flaps 30. TOPCAT is saying the landing is not authorized  same msg even using autobrake 4 

 

That cant be right, my remaining landing distance is almost 3000ft

 Tried the PFPX 'Send to TOPCAT' button, works great.

Hi Rob

 

By this do you mean the Aircraft Take Off and Landing buttons on PFPX? Or am I missing something? If so, where's this button? ;-)  Thanks.

No, landing data is incorrect, I guess that is why it is still beta. Vref is too high. 

 

oops, sorry! In my own world,  pfpx has a send button (in the schedules tab) will export data to TOPCAT

Yep, got it, thanks.

Thanks for the heads up.  I'm creating my T7 fleet for TOPCAT now!

As you say it is still beta, but, my first flight with it gave me this, which looks ok:

** LANDING DATA LFPG 09R **

COND: 458938 LB - RWY DRY @ +6°C Q1006 050/04 // LMT: STRUCT 
CONFIG: FLAPS 30  A/I OFF - A/C PACKS ON

SPEEDS: VREF/138 - VAPP/145

ENG OUT: AT 'RSY' 356 LT TO 'BSN' 114.85 (270 INBD,LT)

In any case it is great to have the takeoff data finally.

 

EDIT: I see what you're getting at now, it isn't so much ref speeds being wrong as it is landing distance required vs landing distance actual in the results are way off. 

 

Ah well, as I said,  just happy to have T/O calcs.  :lol:

I had the same issue, was telling me 06R in CYYZ with anything less than max autobrake wasn't allowed, I used autobrake 2 and still had half the runway left (4700+ feet left).

Is there anyway to edit the number of pax for the 777? PFPX is showing 301 and TC is showing 232 far max pax

Thanks for the heads up!   Now all we need is FS2crew for a complete package, and of course the SP1/SDK too.

Plus the 300 ^_^

But of course.   Need to add the 200ER to that list, need to fly the British Airways livery in the proper form.

Yes, aircraft template edit in PFPX. In the FMC, max pax is 234. So I go by the fmc. At the end of the day, it is just weight, so in PFPX, I made it 234 as per FMC. When I load the plane, I just use the ZFW in PFPX, and match it to TC.

ok thanks I'll do that

Does anyone know if they're planning on doing the -300ER once (if) PMDG release it?

But of course.   Need to add the 200ER to that list, need to fly the British Airways livery in the proper form.

Once the 77W releases, you may do so. They now have ten in the fleet and a couple of them get swapped around and fill in for 772's on various routes. So doing any BA 777 route and using the 77W will not be classed as unrealistic.

 

However, going into some of the small Caribbean airports might be an issue. Best to check before if a 777-300/A340-600 is approved to operate there.
