  1. Indeed, this discussion has gone wild and leads to nowhere ;-( -Michael
  2. Probably up to the revised XP tire model. Check the release notes.
  3. Thanks Jan, for the explanations/insights. Beste Grüße, _Michael
  4. Hello Jan, it may be slightly off topic here, but i was looking quiet a while for some good "translation" of that last "magic" phrase. I cant' imagine how that should work in practice, fighting for the centerline in gusts and bleed 4kts over the threshold 1-2 secs before bleeding the remaining speed during flare. Btw. it seems to be at/below accuracy. What i've observed is that some pilots when approaching threshold generally closing the throttle by a small ~ 5% (N1) twitch. It leads to a shift of control away from thrust to pitch. Probably to increase the "pointiness" during flare to their flaver, And to avoid/breaking any kind of floating tendency early. Thanks in advance, _Michael
  5. crisk73, I fear you are right. But I would be curious about Jans opinion on the default 747. -Michael
  6. Hi Morten. As I noticed the majority of formerly HQ heavy airliner models ( 737 IXEG, 757/767 FlightFactor, 737/727 FlyJSim ... ) suffering the same F/M issues. So your advise to report this to austin is mandantory. But it would be hard to show off with default v10 planes. From my pov, we'll need a heavy A/C to scale up the effects. And we'll need a good (realistic, well defined) F/M which is worth to compare. -Michael
  7. Hi Jan, nice to hear. But maybe it will be a little frustrating for the team to redo the whole stuff? ...grüß mir die Sonne, Michael
  8. Hi cmbaviator, even my experiences. Less drag at higher flap settings and/or more thrust from lesser N1%'s. Larger autothrottle undershooting and more/better groundeffect. Michael
  9. Hi all, my first impressions with XP11: It feels to me like the aircraft performance has been shifted a lot with XP11. Like the plane produces lot less drag. My thrust settings on approach are substantial lower. Michael p.s.: May be caused by xp11 revised jet engine modeling: http://developer.x-plane.com/2016/12/jet-engine-modeling-in-x-plane-11/ ???
  10. Hi Folks, back from "test-flying" at LH-Training/Berlin. I've tested all the above combinations in their Full-Flight Sim (FT38) and it's implemented exactly as shown in the table above. But the rightmost column (CMD A+B) needs a little clarification: The indications are only valid thru dual channel approach operation. In the mean time, between engaging the 2nd A/P and transitioning to dual channel mode (after the self-test) the master indication stays on the side of the 1st engaged A/P ;-) -Michael
  11. Hello sthenion, please share your experiences with us: What is wrong with that file? What have you done to it? Curious, Michael
  12. I don't know whether I remember right, but I saw these buttons (SPD INTV & ALT INTV) in some Lufthansa classics? Michael
  13. More coincidence and less dedication! I've planned it since last year. And now it'll be the last chance to meet these "old aunties" here (FRA/SFX). And you are right, it bites the wallet. -Michael
  14. ... Monty Python's Flying Circus? Like the old "...Ham and Spam?" Stuff! "...and now something completely different": I've just booked an 2h 737 Sim-Session at LH Flight Training. So, if the instructor cooperates, I'll walk thru all the F/D and A/P modes and fill in the above Matrix. Beste Grüsse, -Michael
  15. ....maybe this snippet (even from 737NG OM) makes it nearly deterministic. -Michael p.s.: I can see clearly now, but my brain is gone...
  16. Hallo Flo, I've read you post over and over, but I can't find any contradiction? Beste Grüße -Michael
  17. Please ask your local prosecutor! -Michael
  18. Hi, you will probably find some infos concerning Flight-Director oddities here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/forums/topic/10385-fd-master-lights-out-of-sync/ But I've never discovered any Gizmo glitches around this. -Michael
  19. So, if this can be "generally" agreed, then the red marked states are not yet implemented to Mr. Boeings flavor -Michael
  20. Thanks Jan, that's my favorite guess too. Because it seems to be the most logical presentation of the underlying systems architecture to the pilots. Let's hope, that we can convince Mr. Boeing ;-) -Michael
  21. Hi Jan, please no violence in the cockpit! Before you will kill each other, take a look at this small matrix: I've crawled all manuals/documentation I was able to get my hands on, but I can't extract the (????) combinations. The books are not explicit enough on this. -Michael
  22. New quirky F/D state indication in 1.0.7.: -Michael
  23. For demonstration purpose and on demand of some viewers who got lost in the discussion, I did a little (39s) video: X-Plane 737 Classic Flight/Director Glitch I've reduced the scenario to just straight and level flight. So everyone can join my little "Ping-Pong" game ;-) -Michael
  24. Checked! Thanks Jan for staying open minded. Flieger grüss' mir die Sonne, -Michael
