i will do another flight tomorrow and let you know what's fully happening or not happening .

Transponder is still not being set correctly for departure (P3d4 Button version Airbus pro) , when set correctly TA ONLY in a white box should appear, works fine with the default Airbus copilot feature , i have to set the TCAS manually every time with FS2CREWs prior to departure .

yep mate , if it can be done then fantastic

Say for example you are on Vatsim and would like to tow your A/C from say stand 135 to stand 4 ...you would have to use the computed route and not one that ATC give you so it would be good if you can add an option to make a fresh route for the tow truck to follow that matches ATC instructions.

Not sure if i read it right but how about just making a custom push back to reach that point? i don't know anything about SFO pushback procedures sadly

Hi I've not had much chance to try out the new 1.7 but i did today, can i just say it's a fantastic update and really looking forward to new versions, only a few things I would like to see ... plan a route for towing the A/C so you can use it online if ATC allow (i would if i was controlling that day) and better tugs like the ones that connect directly to the front landing gear without the bar. Thanks again and keep up the good work , its setting the bar ATM Rich

sorrrryyyyy been putting this off for ages lol but just have to ask .... is V1.4 on final approach yet? lol

Yeah that was all set etc, I have got round it by making it part of my flow to switch the top let switch to auto or on so when the FO turns the bottom right switch to TA/RA the transponder turns on as normal.

On the Aerosoft Airbus transponder there is two ways to it on , there's a switch top left that says STBY.. AUTO..ON (FO never sets this) and the one the FO moves is the bottom right one that says STBY.. TA.. TA/RA, if the one top left is set to STBY then no matter what the FO sets on the bottom right it will stay in STBY mode ... you need to manually move the top left to on or auto.

Hi I gave it another go, The TCAS was set to TA/RA but was never switched on by the FO ..the message TCAS STBY remained after departure so i had to manually switch it on.

OK I will give it another go tomorrow, it was the button version i was using

Just wondering ... shouldn't the FO turn on the transponder prior to entering the runway/ once cleared for take off?i normally have to do it manually although he sets TA/RA .... it's the Airbus pro version, preflight events not started. Thanks Rich

If you want to do that all you need to do is make a custom push back … do it straight back then you are good to go.

Yes although at the moment you can't set a route for it to follow.

Cool thanks , lost count the amout of times i have refreshed the site to see if 1.4 is out lol lol , keep up the great work

Hi 1)..Would it be possible to enable push backs from anywhere and not limited to AFCAD start points? ,..... for example .. UK2000s EGSS AFCAD only has start points for stands 31L.. 32R etc .. if you are doing a round trip and ATC give you stand 32 middle then you cant do a proper push from that stand for the return as UGCX only knows 32R so will push you towards that stand first before pushing back normally. 2)When being towed can you add a feature to stop the Tow (like you can with Pushbacks) as i have has a few times where the tow truck has taken me into the terminal. .....cough cough any news on 1.4? lol sorry had to ask Thanks Rich

Great ideas , I tend to use custom pushbacks most of the time thou.. because of the way some airport AFCADs are designed the computer pushbacks can look a little odd. Rich

Hi I was wondering if it could be possible to have a feature where you can select what pilot voice you want for the flight , at the moment you get say a german ground crew and german pilot when flying out of german airports ... which can sometimes sound odd if you are flying an EZY/BAW flight so maybe add an option to select which pilot voice you want but keep the ground crew as per country. Thanks Rich

yep its fixed

I had the same issue at Gatwick yesterday , a blank screen then i remembered i changed some settings to the AFCAD so i needed to rebuild the index (forgot to do it before i loaded P3D) ..all was fine after .

Hi Bryan and Manuel Great work with the new 1.3 update , its fixed a lot of the issues i had like stutters..slight turns after push back and most important for me adding the stop command so no more crashing into the terminals .,the Airport authorities will be pleased lol Rich

Yep thats a lot better thanks .. worked fine

Brill thanks for that

Great thanks , glad to be of help Manuel

Im not sure i think the People who did the Scenery are trying to simulate the L/R stands as well so i think UGCX maybe getting confused
