777-2B8(ER)

Getting there...

Just finished with this one - will be on avsim soon. And this one's also a WIP right now - still needs some changes though:

Still hoping that the minor fixes include the VSI being fixed to the 50ft increments instead of 100ft steps with this update. Anyway - looking forward to the WXR and more realistic TERR

Well seems still to be available - at least Lufthansa Cargo has ADFs installed on their 777 Freighters - and they are fresh off the manufacturing line https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=556812584410531&set=a.169311429827317.40425.165431893548604&type=1&theater (->ADF L and ADF R in the NAV RAD page are there) EDIT: Ethiopian Cargo is having it too - see at 4:11 - this particular airframe was delivered in late 2012 ^_^

If it doesn't work with coordinates, you should be able to enter them with NPOLE and SPOLE. At least with Aerosoft NavData Pro installed - don't know if this also works with Navigraph - when i still was using their data - approx. one year ago - it worked too.

Available for the -600, -700, -800, -900 - just click the link below http://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=Reiner+Dreamliner&CatID=fsx&Go=Search :wink:

Made a comparison with a picture I took - almost the same angle - see here:

1. Emirates 777-300ER 2. Lauda Air 777-200ER 3. KLM 777-200ER 4. Korean Air 777-300ER 5. Air Canada 777-200LR 6. China Southern Cargo 777F 7. Etihad 777F 8. Austrian 777-200ER

Do you already know if it'll be released the same date as the 777 itself or some days later like it was with the NGX?

After my personal delivery flight from PAE to DXB - it'll be DXB-SYD or DXB-MEL to test if everything is working properly as it should ^_^ Thereafter I'll fly some cargo flights with some alternating short/long legs - like VIE-OSL-ICN or AMS-VIE-PVG :rolleyes: So I voted for "Bit of everything mentioned!"

Not the same consumption - takeoff distance is way different (example: Vienna-> JFK - for the 77L this route is like a flight from Vienna to Innsbruck with a 738 - performance wise) as the 77L has the GE90-115B as max. rated engines and the max available engine rating for the (GE) 777-200ER is the GE90-94B so there's a difference of 21000 lbs of thrust per engine -> difference of 42000 lbs of thrust for the entire airplane - so, yes the performance and the consumption differences are not that inevident... And yes - there are way more 777-200ER operators (that makes it even more likely to be developed) - so +1 for a 777-200ER variant! I was pretty surprised that PMDG came up with the 77L as the initial release...

I tried it now with the 747 for the FS2004 and climed above 4000ft but it still doesn't work.

thanks for the hint :)

Well when I'm doing traffic patterns and several go arounds with the 737NG or the 744 on FS9 I only get altitude callouts (...,200,100,50,40,30,20,10 etc..) during the first approach I make. After I performed a touch and go or a go around I don't get those alitude call outs anymore! Thanks for your help!greetingstrainler
