Hi,

First of all thank you very much for the wonderful FS2Crew for the amazing Maddog X. 

I have some issues during line up check and during the before takeoff phase:

1) During the lineup check, the FO will announce "Transponder TA/RA" but he will not set it to TA/RA. Instead the swich remains on STBY.

2) Same with ignition. In my last flight I noticed the switch was set to OFF when the FO asked during the checklist, while other times it is set to A by the FO.

3) Just before takeoff, I will say "ready?" and the FO will respond ready and start counting. However his ET counter is not started.

 

Any ideas if these are bugs or do I do something wrong?

Let me check and get back to you.

Thank you very much Bryan for the quick response. I'll be glad to know :)

Hi Daedalus,

I think you might be missing the all important "cabin crew seats for takeoff" command before the line up check.  This is what triggers the FO to set the ignition to A and turn the TCAS on.

Try this, followed by the "Line up checklist".  Once you have received the takeoff clearance, speak "Ready" and the first officer should reply "Timing".  You start your timing, and he should start his.  I have tried a few times, and it all seems to work fine (even if I have left his clock in Chrono mode).

Have fun flying the Dog.  It takes some figuring, but is such fun!

Hi Neil!

You are right! I have forgotten that phrase...I'll try next time to see if it fix my issues and report back  :) Thank you very much.
