Its been awhile since my last video and many changes have occurred. I'm no longer on the east coast, I'm now out in the heartland. Also my Rig has had a bunch of upgrades since my last video 1. NVIDIA from GTX 770 to 1070 2. RAM from 4gb to 8gb 3. Mobo swap z97k from z87k (2 ram slots shorted out) 4. Added 2 SSDs 240gb & 128gb 5. P3Dv4 Pro installed on 240gb 6. FSX reinstalled on 128gb 7. Added Dual Monitor setup (2 used Samsung Sync Master Monitors w/ 1920 x 1200 installed.) Retired my AOC 1280 x 1024 8. Added amazing Sony Audio Sound System & 7 band EQ for realism. Cost peanuts at the local thrift store. 9. Upgraded to GSX Level 2 10. Upgraded to EZdok v2.6 11. Added Skyforce 3D and aircraft payware specifically for P3Dv4 ________________________________________________________________________________________ This new video is again flying the BAE-146 RJ70 under FSX Boxed Off-loaded various GUIs and popup menus to a 2nd monitor for FSX ATC and messages, REX/E+OD, MCE, GSX , EZDOK panel and whatever else I can. This flight begins on the tarmac opposed to the cockpit. In my attempt to improve realism, this video includes my interaction in the virtual world with the aircraft, the fuel truck driver and the catering service loader. The Ezdok manages all the view changes MCE handles all voice recognition and verbal responses from the FO and Ground Crew. Although P3Dv4 is installed, it does not yet support BAE-146 Aircraft. Before we get started on the flight, I have a few interesting observations: a. Like the MADDOG in the real world, the BAE 146 has reached the end of its useful life as a regional jet and it's being retired from service. b. I really like this plane. Although its not as sophisticated as the PMDG, Leonardo and Majestic offerings, its one of my favorite aircraft to pushback, I especially like the lighted rocker switches in the overhead panel. Night flying is just so cool. c. The QW BAE 146 Ultimate Collection consists of 6 aircraft which are actually 3 aircraft with 2 different instrument panels They are the: BAE 100, 200, 300 - with avionics that are rather semi- automatic and require more pilot input BAE Avro Jet RJ 70, 85, 100 - with more modern automatic avionics.
