UAE77W

Ok, thanks for clarification. But on this video the AP disco sounds different. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_OAH9iRh1I Skip to 02:55. Seems the B757 has different AP disco sounds. And what's with the B744 and B777. They both have A/T disco sounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TImK-oNY6-s 01:05

That's the A/T disco from the B757/B767. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IK9SzuKNXic Skip to 2:00 B)

Just checked it in my FSX. I don't have this hole. What are you using FSX, FSX-SE or P3D? And is your PMDG 777 up to date? The current version is 1.10.6492

Thanks to both of you. B)

Hi everyone, What are you doing when you're currently on a Track, let's say NATA reaching 60N030W on "ERAKA 60N020W 60N030W 59N040W 57N050W HOIST", and it expires and NATA changes to "GOMUP 59N020W 60N030W 60N040W 58N050W CUDDY"? How is it done in real life, do you continue your actual Track or do you enter the next and then following appropriate coordinates? *Edit: I see that the times are from 1130z to 1900z. Do you still continue on your Track or if you would reach the actual Track after 1900z are you even assigned to a Track? Thanks in advance B)

Buy the Extended Download Service for the PMDG 777.

I'm going to do that as well. B) A few hours ago I finished my flight from Dubai to Munich and I was like "OMG I flew that awesome looking -300ER model which looks exactly like the real one".

You just don't get it. Don't you? I think I've read about 10 of these posts from you. The PMDG 777-200LR/F was released in September. I think it was the 3rd of September. You might be right that the 744V2.0 will be released in August/September 2015 but stop saying the 777 was released in August 2013. Sorry but everytime someone asks about the new 747 or an expansion you're coming with this wrong statement.

I have the T.Flight Hotas X from Thrustmaster. If I remember correctly, Luke used or is still using the same joystick.

Hi Rob. I will give it a go. Can you also share your calibration settings in FSX? I'm asking because I don't know which settings are realistic. (e.g. My sensitivity axes are almost full right and my null zones are all full left.)

Hi Andrew - it's nice to hear the FSL A320 finally got the wingflex. I just dealt with your reason not to implent it and I accepted it because we're sitting in the Flight Deck and barely looking at the wings. But great, another feature a lot of customers will enjoy. B)

Thank you very much Rob. I really appreciate your comment. Yep, Stab trim is set at the value indicated in the FMC. I haven't got any units around 2.75 yet. Most units were at around 4.50 to 5.25. ZFW is mostly around 203T to 215T. I'll try your suggestions in a test tomorrow. To my other problem. I don't know how the real T7 behaves but does the 777 trim automatically to hold the pitch in general (like in an Airbus) or not? You said you have to adjust and readjust the trim to keep a steady vs. So the 777 should not trim automatically either for speed and pitch? But why does the pilot do not have to trim to keep his target vs of 1000ft/min? That's confusing me a little. In my next test it'll be normal to adjust trim to keep a steady vs, right? I think a video would be really appreciated from all of us here.

Thanks, I'll check that.

Thanks for the info Ryan. Quick question: I'm at 3000ft (MCP ALT window 3000ft), A/P engaged, A/T on speed set to 250 in MCP window, and Heading Hold mode. Now I tried to do everything the EVA Air pilot on youtube told me. So A/T at 250 still on, A/P disengage and MCP ALT window to 4000ft. So I pulled my joystick very slightly to reach an V/S of 1000ft and once reaching or at VS of 900ft I put it back to neutral, like he showed me in the video. My Problem: The -300ER doesn't hold the V/S. Every few seconds the V/S decreases. In the video the -300ER (or all 777s) holds the V/S of 1000ft. I'm not touching the trim switches, like in the video. Is this a bug and fixed in SP1b, or just my error or did I misunderstood something in the video? - One more question: Is it normal to use forward pressure after rotation to hold F/D pitch? FBW Ref speed was set to V2+20 and A/T did a perfect job to hold V2+20 (around 185kts). In the NGX I trimmed for pitch (I know this is not the NGX) but after 30sec. my T7 still wanted to pitch up (around 20 deg. F/D pitch was at 15 deg.) A/P was disengaged only A/T on and N1 CLB Thrust.

ANA and Korean are using the 773 with PW engines. I for myself would love to see the 773 come together with the -200ER series as already mentioned they all sharing the same engine type (PW, RR and GE). Sure the rating is different but I think the main part is to get the model and the sounds. Everything else is coding which is also the hardest part I think. Can you imagine spooling up those PW or RR engines in the -200ER :wub:. Or to say it in todays language: "Dat sound"

Just for your information. The hook for the emergency exit slide attachment is at the wrong position. It should be a little further away from the fuselage.

Just a quick question. What happens if we notice "a hidden bug" which should be fixed? Do we have to wait for another SP or will these be fixed directly through the Operation Center? Btw: Have fun with your new build. B)

My bad. :wacko: Anyway it's great to see peoples attention on possibly bugs or mistakes.

Where's the "Like-Button" when you need it. She's wonderful in every aspect. :wub:

Next time he will show us an Airbus X Extended VC and the 737 NGX exterior. :ph34r:

I think it should be arrangeable to release SP1 and the -300ER on Christmas in six month. :lol: Luke - Your shots are amazing. You're finally able to fly our beloved 77W. And once again you can see that " size does matter" B)

Guess who's jealous :biggrin:

Andrew - in the "A320 Compact Information" topic at the fslabs forums it says, you're going to model "accurate wing bouncing". Is this correct? And are we able to see the wing from the captain's and F/O's view?

Yes, that's the plan.

Maybe they'll remodel it in the -300ER. Because that overhead panel is a bit different than in the -200/LR/F series. For example the Taxi-Camera-System Light. So if they have to model something new on the -300ER overhead they probably can change the lid too. (Just my opinion. But that would be another closer step to "as real as it gets".
