[18 May 2020] V2.1 Released! Change Log

[kmanning 12]

Bryan,

In the real world of flying the MDs, the pilot not flying, PNF, is usually the person who switches the auto-throttle switch from "off" to the "auto-throttle" position. But I'm always having to switch views and move that switch to the "auto-throttle position when it should be the first officer. When will you implement that in FS2Crew?

Ken.

Hi Ken,

You mean during Takeoff?

Yes.

Our SOPs were created and tested by a real-world Maddog pilot.

It's possible that that's just the way they did it at his company.

Well make it a user option in the next update.

Yes. There was one video I watched on youtube where the pilot, the PF, moved the switch, but most of them showed the PNF engaging the switch. I think you're correct. It depends on the company working for. If I remember correctly, the switch is engaged after the engines have stabilized at 1.4 percent EPR, but you might want to check with the real-world Maddog pilots and be sure. Having that user option will be great.

Ken.

c) Autothrust
-After commanding "TAKEOFF", the PNF will turn on Autothrust about 2 seconds later. 

I assume these 3 options will work when using the Button Control Command as well as the Voice Command.

Yes, also button control.

I just purchased this and all is well except one big thing.

Voice Commands for the most part are not working.  I can only do checklist responses,  The FO will respond to trigger words but not to specific commands for HDG ALT SPD COMM, NAV, etc.

I have FS2Crew & MCE on the same PC but starting only FS2Crew. Is that a problem?

Is there's something I'm missing?

Thanks.
