January 22, 20179 yr Hi I have an issue related to tutorial flight PDF, page 33 says: "Plug in ZFW..... Now that this information is entered, pressing PERF key will give you an up-to-date readout (...) as well as predicted weight/fuel/endurance at our destination accounting for current winds." 1. I don' get any predicted weight/fuel/endurance at destination information. 2. I can only guess it's because no winds were entered by me - where to enter them? Tutorial doesn't mention that. Thanks! Tomasz Zawadzki

January 23, 20179 yr Commercial Member Good to see you were able to figure it out....but yes....the PROG page comes alive one the aircraft becomes airborne, and you you will find that a more accurate estimate becomes available during the cruise rather than in the CLIMB phase.

January 23, 20179 yr Glad you found your answer. This is my best study sim by far. I love this bird. You really have to study and practice to get all the systems down. (at least that is what I've found). I haven't even begun to look at failure procedures. Still trying to keep shiny side up on routine flights.

January 23, 20179 yr Author Well I already had my first failure on first day - failure to check/remove gear pins and guess what happened when I wanted to retract landing gear after 2 hours of prepping the aircraft on the ground 2nd day was more successful and ended with dmooth landing :-) Tomasz Zawadzki
January 23, 20179 yr Hah, been there. That was a shocker for sure. Have you done the "moved condition lever to feather accidently" one yet?

January 23, 20179 yr Author Sure I did! Fortunately Russian roulette solution worked :-) Tomasz Zawadzki
January 23, 20179 yr Ahahaha that would've been my post then ckyliu, proud supporter of ViaIntercity.com. i5 12400F, 32GB, RTX4070, more in "About me" on my profile.
January 23, 20179 yr Author It sure was! So many quirks about this aircraft but it's a pleasure to learn. Tomasz Zawadzki
January 25, 20179 yr Commercial Member LOL....well the gear failure is not really a failure but more so a failure to follow the checklist to have the gear pins removed........this should gotten you a fire side chat with your chief pilot, either for returning to the field to address the issue, or flying at 200 kts ONLY to the destination making your arrival behind schedule KROSWYND a.k.a KILO_WHISKEYMajestic Software Development/Support Sys 1: AMD 7950X3D, NOCTUA D15S, Gigabyte Elite B650, MSI 4090, 64Gb Ram, Corsair 850 Power Supply, 2x2TB M.2 Samsung 980s, 1x4TB WDD M.2, 6xNoctua 120mm case fans, LG C2 55" OLED running at 120Hz for the monitor, Win11.

January 25, 20179 yr Author I got myself FS2CREW yesterday so copilot is hired and now when it comes to checklist and pins, his "stowed" is a nice thing to hear! That's the thing about large aircrafts - you really need two people there :-) Tomasz Zawadzki
