April 30, 20179 yr Did 747 airliners updated there EFIS panel where the Minimums Reference Selector shows RADIO/BARO instead of DH/MDA? I see some 747 operators have either DH/MDA or RADIO/MDA options but PMDG only has the RADIO/BARO selector. This also seems to be in PMDG's FCOM (page113) but I can't replicate the DH/MDA. Dario
May 1, 20179 yr How old were the photos with DH/MDA panels? I believe the change came around the time TERRain was introduced. I'm wondering how many aircraft are now flying without EGPWS/Terrain. Cheers. John H Watson (retired 744/767 Avionics engineer)
