Ortho4xp height files, overlays and running on separate computer?
So far I always did tiles and their overlays based on the meshv3. How can I create an overlay in an area where there is no such mesh available like South Africa?

Exploring Germany North
Fantastic shots! Can you tell us a bit more about the wx addon (as16?) and if any postproduction color correction was used?

AS16 and ASCA on sale
I would guess so. I used ASN before and bought the P3D upgrade on PCA (not on sale). I just had to enter the ASN key when installing the upgrade. ASN does not differentiate between FSX or P3D, it is one license.

AS16 and ASCA on sale
Just realized that too. @ Simmarket there is almost no difference. (Edited my post 6) The FSS however has the upgrade for 29 US (and it doesn't matter if you previously bought ASN from them. You just need the key when installing the Upgrade.)

Short flights, GTN 750: what plane is realistic?
I like the 750 in the Skylane and the C404. It looks really good in the Lancair v2 too. I had the same thought about the Cherokee. The 650 looks way better, but buying a separate one... As most of my addons use Proline 21s, G1000s or other glass cockpit, I decided to keep some of my GA fleet a bit simpler and more realistic (and returned the 750, at least for now). I am using the FltplanGo App on my iPad to monitor and follow my fltplan.

Is it true Emirates doesn't have the altitude alert sound?
It seems the topic of this thread is still unclear. Have a look at FCOM 2, 15.20.11 The altitude alert in the 777 is at first a white box around the altitude on the PFD, 900' before reaching selected altitude (no aural at that point). When deviating more than 200' from MCP selected altitude you get an amber box indication around the altitude on the PFD and an EICAS caution message "altitude alert" accompanied with the beeper sound. That is the same for EK acft. I am not familiar with these ini files. They should be programmed in such a way that you only get an audio alert when actually deviating. (No sound at 1000' before like with other aircraft.) When you start flying that many different acft in the sim it can get confusing Your questions about the Logo light: It is switched on from darkening near sunset till after sunrise (irrespective of altitude). Never used the wing light.

Thanks man, anytime...I am just a bit energy limited due to my health condition and it may take a while to get back :wink: I also liked to fly to those destinations and often bid for them. Emirates uses pretty much Boeing procedures. You can find a lot of information on how to operate the 777 in the PMDG FCOM 1 under Normal Procedures: Amplified Procedures. :smile: Lights: Nav is always on, even during the day. Logo only at night. Beacon before push and engine start. For taxi: Taxi and turnoffs on.( When stopping intermittently set taxi to off.) Lineup: LDG lights and strobe on (Some technique is to switch the LDG lights only to on when takeoff clearence received) 10K: LDG lights, taxi light and turnoffs to off. When passing 10k in descent set those to on again. After vacating the runway set LDG lights and strobe to OFF. Before turning into a stand set taxi and turnoffs to off. Shut down engines, beacon off.

CLB as far as I remember. Callouts 2500, 1000, 500, approaching minimum, minimum (e.g. set to 200), 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10. MCP set V2. Vref plus 5 for landing

For the descent normally the FMC speed is used. If you notice to be above profile you could open the speed window and use 310 (>10k) before using speed brakes. On the otherhand if you get closer to the approach and maybe a bit below profile you can use vertical speed to correct. It iwas EK policy to always use the highest level of automation, e.g LNAV/VNAV before using autopilot basic modes like track select and flightpath angle and only then flying without AP. For the approach: Intercepting the ILS with Flaps 5 and speed accordingly gives you enough time to stabilize the aircraft, especially when coming in from a long flight (Unless you are far out). Glideslope alive select gear down and flaps 20, arm speed brake and display the ECL. Landing flaps 30 selected latest at 1500 AGL in order to be established at 1000' IMC or 500' AGL. You could handfly the approach and follow the flight director, but mostly we switched off the AP around 1000' according their above mentioned policy. After touch down idle reverse (if possible) and ABS braking. Taxi in: Engines 3' idle, APU running, no narrow turns, acft weight permitting they shut down one engine (normally left) Info about lights to follow
