Felis 747 question

[timers15 11]

I'm thinking about getting the Felis 747. My only question is does it a nice way to time skip?  For instance, the Tolissi have a next waypoint skip that is excellent.

I looked at some reviews but there's no mention about this feature or lack thereof.

Thanks!

I believe the answer is no.

Hmm.. don't believe I've seen such an option. However I have never actively looked for it as I 99.999% of the time do all flights real-time.

Ah, thanks for your replies but I did find another post where Felis himself says he has other priorities first before new features.

But I'm going to keep an eye on this plane.

Well worth it. I've had a bit of a break from it while doing the CL650 and PMDGs in MSFS but took it for a spin this evening. Love it to bits.

Are the engines custom modelled, independently, or xp12 default turbines?

Haven’t got the slightest clue about that.. 😅 for me that has never left-seated a 742 they feel believable. 😉

Yeah, it's me being picky 🙂

But I am biased by Aerowinx PSX, where each and every single bit of the 744 is simulated 🙂

Uh, guys, I got it anyway.  Yes there doesn't seem to be an efficient skip ahead feature.

But who cares?  It must be one of the most awesome addons I've ever seen.

It also has alot of little things streamlined so you get to do the actions without the um, "realism" (time wasting).  For instance, INS setup,loading and perf calcs.

I find the startup from cold very straightforward.  My first flight was perfect except I was stymied by the ESS power for a bit.

Mind you, I learned all this in the RFP in FS 2004. Yes I'm bragging. 🙂 But none of the RFP bugs lol.

It needs some kind of skip ahead so you can enjoy fuel operations without spending 8 hours at the computer. I haven't used the center tank yet which is a bummer.

ah, the good old RFP. So many hours in that one, nights of sitting in the glow of my computer screens reprogramming the CIVA during another oceanic crossing
