One more thing In this I haven't put anything ARR because if I inset point the line does not meet.

So this is correct or not??

ARR is just STAR (Standard Terminal Arrival, a pre-programmed route for arriving to the airport). You need to find the most suitable ARR depending on your arrival direction and runway. Sometimes the ARR does not connect to the APP, which is fine (irl you get ATC vectors between the two). In Aerofly the plane will automatically navigate from the end of ARR to the start of APP(shown in photo)

They one is true, BUT: Sun Country operated -700s without winglets.

The 735 is shorter than the -700, more like the -600. Hence it won’t be a replacement.

Thanks for the info, here's a screenshot of what i meant:

PFD shows 310 kts, FMC shows 330, MCP is blank

I meant when the window closes, at that point the MCP speed will just read off the FMC right?

Hello IPACS,

Sometimes the automatic MCP speed selection is not the same as the FMC speed, which could be the reason that VANV SPD was always on despite AT maintaining a (seemingly) correct speed.

I'm no expert in this but it seems like a bug

Is it related to with the route planning & magenta line discrepancies you mentioned before?

Hi IPACS,

Any plans on adding route elevation info on the 737 and 787 VSD?

Thanks

Regarding the tug, it will be convenient if the tug can go in both directions, as novice drivers might need some back and forth to align with the taxiway perfectly.

Thx

Hello fellow Aerofly-ers,

Are there any ways to find the specific QNH values? I flew at higher elevations (DEN, EGE, etc) and it’s always a hassle trying to set the QNH by trying to match the runway waypoint altitudes with terrain on the VSD .

Hello IPACS, when I do ILS and RNAV approaches, the PAPI will show mostly 3 whites, suggesting I’m high on GS. This is especially confusing with RNAV approaches as it’s difficult to decide which one to follow.

Please fix.

Thank you very much!

Hello,

What is the specific logic of VNAV SPD and VNAV PTH? In what circumstances will one be chosen?

Sometimes VNAV SPD gets me way higher on profile, can I manually choose one over the other?

Also, sometimes the FMA gets into a seizure switching between the two special times a second, is it a bug or am I simply on the edge of the two?

Thanks!

Quote from Jet-Pack (IPACS)

That is relevant for elevators. We are talking about the flaperon a here.

My apologies, got a bit lost when searching. Either way, most sources point towards the PCU bypass mode during takeoff. I’ll look for more info.

Great majority of the sources point to BYPASS MODE. Btw I found this, don’t know if it’s enough info though:

Federal Register :: Request Access

A Boeing’s maintenance directive I think

Hello IPACS,

This is a small issue that I found on the 777 & 787, nothing too significant or urgent but deserves some attention.

The flaperons on the two aircraft’s are realistically simulated (drop down at takeoff, regain hydraulics at 100 ish kts). However, during this period the flaperons should not respond to input at all, as of now it can still be moved by the yoke.

This is nothing urgent, just a suggestion.

Thanks

Hello IPACS team,

On the a320 it take a long time and lots of usage to get the 3000 psi of hydraulics to 500 ish.

On the Boeings the hydraulic pressure go from 3000-5000 to 0 in around 2 seconds without usage. The same happens when starting the pumps, the pressure go to 3-5k real fast.

I seems to be off, but I’m not sure.

Hello IPACS, the 777's apu is always on around 100 percent RPM.

Is it a TMD file issue or something deeper? (sorry I'm no expert in this)

Please fix, thanks.

Upon further testing, the apu functionality seems to be fine (Generator took time to start after apu selected as START and ON.) Maybe just the display issue?

I was trying to do the high alpha pass (30 degrees AOA, flaps up), and found that the hornet can do it at 80 kts??? In real life it’s usually 110 knots.

The honey in game also can somehow accelerate in a vertical climb, which was almost never possible in the actual one.

What exactly is the weight of the FA18 in game? Maybe it’s a bit light?

Due to the curvature of earth? Each time I time-skip I gain 1500ft or so.

Quote from sherdil

In real life if a Jet no matter if its small as 737 or large as A380 if a jet falls in stall it will never apply full thrust.

True, I apologize for the oversight, I think the protection initiates at near stall speed (the orange part of the speed tape). This can allow some nose authority and can reduce the likelihood of loss of control due to the pitching up.

Hope it can be implemented soon

Hello IPACS,

In most cases, the 777 will automatically apply full thrust when (1) the A/T is ARMED (no need to be engaged) and (2) airspeed is low. Can you guys add this feature?

Thank you.
