[12MAY18] First Cockpit Video Preview of the PMDG 747-8

Recommended Posts

Preparing for another test flight from LGAV to WSSS I thought that you might wanted to see some of the new features included in the upcoming PDMG 747-8 expansion pack.

As I also say in the video this is still under development so some features might change until the final release

Enjoy 🙂

Great! So if I have Navigraph charts subscription can I read my charts inside the cockpit ?

Thanks, regards

Max

Looks Fantastic!!

 

Is it possible to have the EFB undocked to a tablet/Ipad device via Wifi connection?

 

Many thanks

Only downside is I will have to commit to a navigraph subscription...or would this come with a complimentary AIRAC update. .. is it AIRAC?

Did you watched the Video?

Okay now I better just hit replay before I get a warning for inappropriate language.

You need to have charts subscription which is not the same as the Airac. Navigraph charts are cloud based so it is not possible to have a free one like the airac.

The charts subscription is worth it in any case just to avoid frantically Googling charts only to find 10-year-old PDFs.

I can confirm this, definitely worth the price, especially when flying online

Looks promising! Can the pdf reader read any pdf's? Because I personally use pdf charts. 

Also (and yes, I know this is still beta, but I better say it now than when it's too late): Will the yoke (removing the checklist and changing the geometry a bit) be fixed? And I also spotted the same bug/inaccuracy that is currently present in the -400, namely the wrong accu-break pressure reading (way too low). The parking brake still works but the reading doesn't make any sense.

Will the EFB provide a "moving map" feature?  As this is possible with Navigraph and Simlink.
