I don't know if it's a limitation where the checklist pops up in 2D mode.Is it available/planned to have the checklist run in the vc without popup?

 

Love the product
 

 

 

Than you need to read it  side ways  which makes it worse  just close it  by using  the key and when you want it  again press the key  to make it appear

 

Correct, you really don't even need to have the Main Open at all for most of the flight anyway once you know what you're doing.

 

 

 

I also have the" M/A set....." problem

 

In that case, simply don't say it, or say it clearly as a single sentence because if "Missed Approach" is heard by itself, FS2Crew will think you're commanding a go around.

Glad to hear you love it!

 

But I don't really understand the question.

 

The 777 doesn't have 2D cockpit, only a VC.

 

If you want to have the FO use the ECL, we need the pop-up.  The SDK provides no control over the ECL, and this is the only way we could get the FO to be able to interact with the ECL.

 

But the pop-up only usually stays open for a few seconds, so it's hardly a distraction.

 

Cheers,

With regard to the ECL pop up, can it be resized, dragged off screen or to another monitor? (Curious as I don't own yet :-p )

Not really...  the pop up is only open for a few seconds at a time usually, so it doesn't block your view for long.

 

And there are various config options to suppress the pop up if so desired.

 

Cheers,

Whats the chance's of being able to have a conversation with the F/O like we could with the PMDG747 edition, get's a bit lonely on long hauls (I use button control).

 

Cheer Rod.

Thanks,Bryan, that's what I meant.

BTW, heading for the far-east for Christmas - (Philippines).

Just in case this has been missed from an earlier post of mine, the FO to command EFIS functions;

 

refer to this:

 

http://forum.avsim.net/topic/454922-fo-command-to-control-nav-beacon-lights/

 

Thanks again......

I kind of agree - I haven't seen the FO do much with his EFIS panel (but I haven't been paying close attention to it yet, either).  Does he turn on traffic display for his ND, for example?  Does he set a specific ND Range at various stages of flight?

 

Some other thoughts I have for v1.2 and beyond.

• Must set a comm panel or overhead switch (something) before communicating with the ground crew is successful
• enable voice to (dis)connect both the gpu and air-cart in one request (sentence) like the 737NGX.
• change flow (maybe just documentation) to when parking brake is set.  How can we set parking brake if hydraulics are not on yet?
• remember approach briefing panel settings across FS sessions.  I think departure panel is remembered, but not the approach panel.
• option for FO to set runway turn-off lights for just takeoff/landing flow or for taxi as well (as currently implemented).

 

 

 

I did that in the NGX, and all it did was generate support email from people who didn't read the manual.

 

There's no point in "forcing", but perhaps in 1.2 I'll add an option for users who want that feature "forced" on them.

 

Points noted on other remarks.

Hi Bryan,

I was wondering if the above command request, to enable or disable both the GPU and Air-cart, made into v1.2?  I don't see it mentioned in the online-manual.

• enable voice to (dis)connect both the gpu and air-cart in one request (sentence) like the 737NGX.

Thanks...

No it didn't I'm afraid.  Hopefully in a future version.
