Hello, I'm having some issues on getting FS2Crew to recognize the phrase "Cockpit to de-ice coordinator". I discovered this during some testing I've done with the green bar visible and hard mute set to on. I've also set the COMM1 frequency to 121.65 (just in case..I don't know if it matters when just checking for correct understanding of commands). Windows 7 speech recognition is off My system: - Windows 7 Ultimate - FSX with SP2 - Latest version of FS2Crew NGX Voice control version (part of captain's set)..at least I believe so (the configuration program version is 2.0). - Using the 737-800WL - I ran the windows 7 voice training several times - I specifically trained the words: Cockpit, to, de-ice and coordinator via the windows 7 speech dictionary. I also trained the phrase as a whole When I look at the green bar, the phrase "cockpit to ground" shows up every time I say "cockpit to de-ice coordinator", even when I turned down the volume in case the background cockpit noise was interfering.. I've tried to articulate it several times..still, "cockpit to ground" shows up. When I test the phrase via Win7 speech recongizer (in notepad), it shows up perfect everytime..but not in FS2Crew.

Hello Bryan, Is there any way to make the FO do the abridged pre-flight flow when starting up FS2Crew on the "first" leg (i.e. to pretend it's actually the second or third leg of the day) ? That is, since I rarely have enough time to complete more than 1 flight at a time during a particular day (a little tiresome to listen to the FO completing the 1st flight of the day items for every flight). I have tried to cycle through the operation modes until it returns to "preflight". Is there a workaround here? Not that this is a fault in the simulation itself, but it would be nice to load the aircraft in a powered state (NGX long / NGX short), and then sort of catch up.

Hello again,1. Airport: ENZV2. Selected Voice set: EURegardsKyrre AndersenNorway

Hello,I just tried to reproduce the situation again, and the FO now positioned the fuel pumps switches correctly according to the procedure. I think I may have loaded the A/C with the center tank full, initialized FS2Crew's pre flight events, and then used TOPCAT to reconfigure the fuel tanks.Thanks :)RegardsKyrre AndersenNorway

Hello,In accordance with the pre-flight flow, the FO is supposed to turn on the left han ctr tank pump (in addition to the left aft pump) when running on APU. But as stated in the manual, this should only be the case when the CTR tank qty is more than 1,000 lbs. I'm finding the FO's setting the left ctr pump on when running on apu, regardless of actual ctr tank qty (see attached pics).Regards,Kyrre AndersenNorway

Hello,I've just tried a sample flight with unselecting 'HS'. The sounds are still not present (including the "chocks in" sound upon arrival). However, other sounds play fine.Regards,Kyrre AndersenNorway Hello,I've just tried a sample flight with unselecting 'HS'.

Hello Bryan,I just purchased and installed the FS2Crew for iFly and encountered the following:I'm running the preflight events with US crew voices. At +8 mins before departure someone is arriving with a load sheet (or at least, it seems to be a dialouge there). However, there is no sound, I can only hear the captain say "thanks" when I click the secondary button (no sound from the person coming in with the loadsheet). Also, I'm unable to hear the start crew (no sound, execpt for the captain's responses, like "parking brake set", "brakes released")I am running FS9, Win7 Ultimate 64bit. Regards,Kyrre AndersenNorway

Hello Bryan,I use Maddog 2010 (latest version) with FS2Crew and SP3.Regards,Kyrre AndersenNorway

Hello,While I'm at the gate and setting up my navigation aids for departure, the FO seems to have turned off the no.2 ADF. I know that he's supposed to run a test on the ADF's during his flow, but the no.2 ADF is impossible to turn back on. I am running the Maddog from a cold and dark state. Any clues?Regards,Kyrre AndersenNorway

Hello,During the final approach phase i'm calling for the FO to extend the flaps on schedule. The error arises after I ask him to set flaps 25.Correctly he extends the flaps to 25 and calls "Flaps twenty five set". I then ask him to set the manouvering speed by stating, "Set flaps 25 speed"Although he sets the speed correctly on the MCP he calls out "Flaps five speed set" instead of "Flaps twenty five speed set".Otherwise, I found out with a little more voice training on my profile, the program just works better and better:) Really impressive!Some other questions:Is it any way to sort of disable the FO to set climb thrust, say during cruise, descent and approach? I noticed that the phrase "n one" (N1) triggers him to say "Climb thrust set". Of course, the AFDS obviously does not allow for this (as noted on the EIS thrust limit annunciator), but a little bit annoying. I probably also need to somehow insulate my microphone head a little bit, since it seems to be quite too sensitive, and I'm getting feedback when the FO responds out of my speakers. I am using FS9 and I don't know if there is any way to get FS2cew sound out on my headset only (I only have one sound card).I can also confirm the problem with the FO "looping" the after takeoff checklist several times after he completes the first one.Regards,Kyrre AndersenStavanger

Hello Bryan,Is there any possibility to add de-icing ops on ground for the Airbus editions, like on the 737 series?Regards,Kyrre AndersenNorway

Hello Bryan,I just touched down in Newcastle with an A320 this evening (on VATSIM). After I've parked the ground engineer contacted me "any snags?", but when I was to say how much fuel remained it became silent...the capt just said "Fuel remaining is...". Where does FS2Crew retrieve this number?Best regards,Kyrre AndersenNorway

>Hello Bill,>>There is a pre-defined list in the FS2Crew code that looks for>what's indicated in the aircraft.cfg.>>US Air is on the list.>>Please open your aircraft.cfg for the Airbus and make sure US>Air for your model (ATC Airline I recall it is), is written>exactly like this.>>It could be a case sensitivity issue:>>Usair>>Cheers,>BryanBryan,I also have the same issue. Is there a list of how the atc_airline entries should look like to make FS2Crew recognize them?I have a problem with "Scandinavian". In the aircraft.cfg for the A319 IAE model, it says Scandinavian in the atc_airline entry, still, the FO uses "Airbus" for the push and start call. I have tried both "SCANDINAVIAN" (uppercase), "Scandinavian", and "scandinavian", this does not work either. RegardsKyrre AndersenNorway
