Another question, I see no rain effect on my windows, there should be, right? Or do I miss somthing.

The update to version 1.2 of the Aeroplane Heaven DC-3 is a big step forward. The engines can be started properly. Good news.

Maybe someone can help me wirth the GTN suite. I have installed the F1 GTN serie and located the DC-3. But the GTN suite remains blank. I hope I miss something small...

Hi Bert, Thanks for the GTN mods, it works great. One question though, I use nav + lnav to follow the flightplan, but how do I switch to ILS approach to hold the course and glideslope?

Once again, thanks!

Ooooohhhhh, thanks Bert, I forgot all about the extend battery life.

Hi all,

Back again...can we alter a taxi and landing lights. Make them shine brighter and a bit further?

Hi all,

I did forget, is there a way in the aircraft.cfg to get everlasting power on the Fokker 50?

Thanks for helping.

Wow, thanks, this is helpful.

Could someone make a KLM Exel version please?

Thanks for the tip!

Hi Bert,

After a good year trying and failing to get the route EHAM LOPIK EHN SOPVI OSGOS in the standar FMC of the Fokker, I am giving up and considering to purchase the GTN package. Can you verify for me the route and get back to me if it is properly displayed with waypoints airways and all?

EHAM LOPIK V33 EHN P57 OSGOS is the official route.

Thanks for helping me out!

Hi all,

I need some help. Can you help me by filling in the next flightplan in the FMC of the Fokker 50 and then let me know what your experiences are:

EHAM sid LOPIK TOTNA EHN SOPVI OSGOS star EHBK

Thanks!

Hi all,

Is it possible to manually enter a waypoint in the database of the Universal FMC of the Fokker 50? I like to add EHN (NDB freq 397.0), its position N51 28.1 E005 23.7

This NDB is missing from the database, thus don't show. I contacted Carenado several times, no luck...

Any thoughts?

Hi,

The light switches are the knobs on the center pedestral. A bit further down you can find the flood light knob. Indded. they are poorly labeled.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the reply. The reason for questening is that I find the universal FMC rather limited and the problem I have with GTN750 is that it doesn't use navigraph cycles. So I figured: why not use EFB as a FMC as we did with Aerosoft's FSC until Prepar3d v4?

I tested it and it works more or less. You can make a flightplan with airwaysand sids/stars and load it into the standard FMC of the Fokker, or rather into the flightplanner of the flightsimulator.

However, what I really miss is a decent FMC for the Fokker. But I struggle onwards and enjoying this plane all the same 😉

Hi Marius

Very nice indeed, where to find these beauties? Couldn't find them on your website.

Greetings,

Hi all,

Has anyone experience with EFB v2 from Aivlasoft? Does it have an autopilot function to follow a flightplan? And how does it react with the Fokker 50?

Greeitz,

David

Okay, thanks for all the help. I am much further with this.

Hi MaDDogz,

Nice, that's the trick! Can I change that in mmbar rather than inches?

Well, that's the thing...I have enabled the cockpit tool tips, but no info is coming from that gauge. I will try and fiddle with the xml file, see if I can get it to work. Thanks for the replies and further help is more than welcome 😉

Hi Folks,

Maybe one of you can help me out. When hovering with the mouse over the Alt meter of the C-47 Beta 3.14 of Manfred Jahn, it doesn't display the mmbar or inches, the meter itself is not quite readible. I want to take this bird for an IFR flight in The Netherlands and the TA is 3000 feet, so above that it's standard QNH. Any suggestions on how to make the gauge readible?

I found it in the navaids text file of the airac 1802 cycle (I made a clean install of the airac), and the adf needle in the fokker is seeing it as well and is working properly.

Guys, sorry to bother you again, but...

I am planning a historic route from Amsterdam (EHAM) to Maastricht (EHBK). The navpoints and airways are still the same today. So here is the flightplan: lopik V33 EHN P57 osgos. With the help from Bill I can get the depart and arrive info in the FMS, cheers! I can even plot the correct route of the airway via the fixes on the airways (because the FMS don't do airway...) so the flightplan should look like: lopik totna EHN sopvi osgos. Now the odd bit...I can't insert EHN, it is a NDB (freq 397.0). It is visible on the default map of prepar3D v4,

I am a bit confused here...

Hi,

This is the plane I have been waiting for as Dutchman, very nice. But I need a little help with the Carenado Universal FMS. When I insert a flightplan I can't select the runway of the arrival airport, what am I missing here, do others have the same problem?
