Failures & Emergencies

[ByramJ 10]

I've been away from the sim world for a few years (MS Flight threw me into a depression) but news of FS20 has me skipping back. One thing though that always bothered me, was the absence of wig-wag lights. In the real world, they are not only significant at alerting you of a runway but they have an intense presence about them that is just so cool to me. So at the end of the day, I just hope they've included wig wag light..

I chose Bird Strike mainly because FSW came up with a neat visualisation to denote it and it would be nice to see an equivalent in MFS. However I would want to see a much wider range of possible failures and emergencies than those shown in the poll made available in the longer term. Tied in that is the provision of a decent scenario editor being made available.

The variations of errors in FSX were not bad! What bothers me is that you can only set, that an error will happen (during a certain timespan)! Personally, I would prefer, you can set a probability, wether any error could occur at all during the whole flight! I think that such an option would be more realistic! Similar as in FSPassenger or FSCaptain!

CSD/IDG high oil temp failure and therefore lost of a Generator or the risk of fuel icing would something i want to see!

I’m more interested in smaller things going wrong with the machinery than some of these big, aircrash investigation style failures. I had the autopilot fail on my pmdg 737 once and it was terrifying, but rewarding working through whatever that manual thing is called. I would definitely have been sacked in real life and possibly would have seen some jail time, but I didn’t crash.

P3D offers even more choices.  And FS-Pax when it was still in use gave even more, things like blown tires and whatnot.

I remember suggesting that way back when FSX was in development as well, and like you say, FS-Pax could do it.

"all of them" would be my answer
