The RNAV ends many miles away from the runway, whereas the today RNAV Z 08 transition ELMEM brings you to the threshold.
-
If I remember well, in Japan I used 2201 which was OK for routes but terrible for SID and STAR that seem to be from 1301.
Things are coming from 1301 and other, it is a kind of mix.
Unfortunately, in 1301, you will not have mordern RNAV that guide you to the runway threshold (like it is the case today at La Palma, Innsbruck, Aspen, Paro, etc.)
-
1301 especially in Europe.
-
Back too?
Not really. It’s now fully and totally impossible.
I’m keeping an eye here and there… -
Or should I assign another axis for reverse thrust?
I do no longer remember. But, I think reverses simply work after my little tutorial. As you calibrate from idle to mid flex/toga, when using it going above idle for reverse, it should trigger the reverses.
I begin to forget seriously.
-
This is what I used to do when I was an Aerofly user:
In Aerofly, at the time of phase 1 of calibration, move the FLAPS and SPEED BRAKE levers in all their amplitude, but for the throttles do not go further than between FLEX and TOGA from IDLE:
Then, in phase 2 of the calibration, center FLAPS on 2 and SPEED BRAKE on 1/2 and THROTTLE on CLIMB (this phase actually seems to have no effect).
This method makes it possible to fully engage the CL trigger, but on the other hand makes it more delicate, but very correct, the engagement of the FLEX notch. However, it is less evil than losing the A/THR in mid-flight!

Hi. If I remember well, I used AIRAC 1301 which somewhat worked with Europe. 2201 was good for Japan but for SID and STAR was terrible. Regards

Isn’t it, how to flare?

Truman Show
This is it. That explains all.

which makes a very small difference for the actual flight
But today, there are RNAV approaches that bring you to the threshold of the runway (Aspen, Innsbruck, Madeira, ...).
The essential is to understand that Navigraph will never be embedded to Aerofly FS 4 and probably not to a future Aerofly FS 5.
-
The developers have just brought two excellent planes to Aerofly (Boeing 737-900ER and 737 Max 9). This is not the time to ask for more planes considering that this is very hard and difficult work. Let's at least let them breathe.
If it's not a new plane it will be something else. Not sure they take time to breath.
-
other simulators have done this if there is a will there is a way !
Or course there’s a way. But this way is probably not built in and would have to be done.
-
what about using 2203 airac of navigraph ?
Why not, but is it technically possible for Aerofly? Is it able to interpret external database?
I bet it is not (because the actual way of doing routes is probably a homemade solution)
-
Can you tell me how I can enjoy this game?
Calm down, I totally agree…
IPACS also say you will never get Navigraph
because it would not cover all the users (only those who can afford to).And once again, what if the actual system is not able to import external database without a deep rework (all FMS/MCDU, navigation menu, etc.).
I didn’t intend to be the once who showered your hopes. Sorry.
-
x plane can do it, why can't you?
What if the way the database is built is such a way that it is fully incompatible with external data like Navigraph?
Or what if Aerofly is unable to interpret external data (without a deep rework)? -
The AIRAC is outdated so some may not exist. If I may ask, where were you flying?
in this case, you can prepare your flight plan with aerofly and it’s now waypoints. Delete it. Some will not be found in the MCDU.
-
Some waypoints here and here can’t be found even though they exist in the Navigation menu. And it is not necessary the farthest ones.
-
I just downloaded aerofly on my macbook air m1 and I want to connect the Thrustmaster so I'm just wondering if it will work
It will work at all (Airbus Edition).
Beware that the USB is the old fashion USB-A.
-
However, you can go to the PROG page and enter a waypoint in BRG/DIST TO [-----].
So you will have the bearing to this waypoint. And then select the value as heading in the FCU.
The bearing will change as much as the aircraft is turning so the heading will have to be adjust.
It is not elegant at all.
Please, note that some waypoints will not be found in the MCDU (even the nearest ones or the nextdoor points). They can't be found in the PROG page, neither in the F-PLN page, etc.
