karingka Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Ok thanks Phillip. I'm on mac, and what I tend to do is turn off all the rendering options, with just "extreme" texture res and shaders turned on, so that I can run good aircraft with good scenery.

Japo32 Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 And with Mac you will have some extra frames compared with Windows version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, seriously, you must! Well, with being so busy lately, I haven't had a chance to go climbing or kayaking or camping. X-Plane is the best thing to do while at home.I may have stretched that statement there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxime Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 OO boy, this is amazing This aircraft i think will make X-Plane have a whole new experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YYZatcboy Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I'm very much looking forward to reviewing this aircraft over at Armchair Aviation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrospeuz Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 HeyHere is one question not concerning the CRJ Which scenery for LEVC do you use? It looks quite good on your photos=)Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japo32 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 You will see how download on the Tuturial documentation (I hope today released... the docs only!!) Instructions are there to make the tutorial with the CRJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpny Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 You will see how download on the Tuturial documentation (I hope today released... the docs only!!) Instructions are there to make the tutorial with the CRJ.Can you post the docs somewhere? I don't know when then plane will be released, but I'd like to start going through the manual and familiarize myself with the plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japo32 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 between today and tomorrow you will see the documents online for download. It is Cameron work.. but he is soon to complete the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesomir Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Javier, what range does this sim CRJ-200 aircraft have in nm for mfuel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japo32 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 I made testings of the plane and taking off from sea level.. to 34,000 feet.. and maintaining for all flight that altitude the plane reached 1950 nM. with 50 pax... that is close to the 1700 max range of the plane.. but you must know that those 1700 are safe one with 100nm reserve... so 1800 nm. If you descent from 35,000 feet to 5000 and maintain that altitude for maybe 50nm then the fuel flow is higher so it can be perfectly match those 1800 max range.But there are so many variables around.....

Nova Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Hmmm, the official pages says 1345nm. 55 passengers, each 100kg in weight plus max fuel.And talking about the real one: where is it built? I am planning on doing a ferry flight fromits' production facility to munich, where it then gets it's Lufthansa paint ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YYZatcboy Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Mirabel, Quebec. CYMX just to the north of Montreal. Scenery is available on the .org IIRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesomir Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 @Nova there are two versions the ER and the LR with different ranges.@Javier. Excellent news. We just announced our Propilot event using the CRJ, and your model (the preferred vehicle for our pilots on x-plane) can handle all the legs http://www.fly-euroharmony.com/forum/index.php/topic,6530.msg49766.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(other thing is have same numbers than the real one. I have tried but never I would have those same numbers.. but close to them, yes).

That sounds absolutely fantastic, especially since I've actually FLOWN a plane from Montreal (though it was CYUL) back to the US.So we're waiting on Cam now?

Japo32 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 I don't know how that can be done.. I mean... fly for example from Toronto to Europe.. here:http://www.crj.bombardier.com/CRJ/en/range.jsp?langId=en&crjId=200from Toronto seems that the CRJ cannot cross the ocean. Maybe flying over groendland then iceland.. then europe... But how they do deliver the planes to european countries or Japan? Don't know...well.. of course those ranges are with people inside. Maybe no passengers or weight can make it Canada - Iceland - Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 from Toronto seems that the CRJ cannot cross the ocean. Maybe flying over groendland then iceland.. then europe... But how they do deliver the planes to european countries or Japan? Don't know...The seats are actually removed and fuel tanks are placed internally to accomplish the longer delivery flights. Go! (Mesa) did this with their CRJ's headed to Hawaii. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Since the CRJ needs Navigraph data i bought the latest cycle and then downloaded Goodway v4.I used http://www.gcmap.com to get possible airports within a range of 1600-1800nm.Then checked their runway length and chose one of them.Afterwardsi used Goodway to get a route. I'm not sure if they are valid, but who cares There will be not much ATC anyways, so....So my route is now with 2 stops. CYMX (Mirabell) -> BGSF (Kangar Lussuaq) -> EGAA (Belfast) -> EDDM (Munich) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japo32 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 I would never exceed the 1700 on this plane.. with some front wind we can have very important problems. you know.. CRegionalJ haha. no CIJ (International) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyinhawaiian Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 People fly single-engine piston aircraft across the pond from time to time. Easy flight for you, I already planned out your stops!CYMX> BGBW (Greenland) - 1367nm> EGPF (Scotland) - 1300nm> EDDM (Germany) - 746nmTa DAAAA!!!EDIT: Damn I'm slow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacoba Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 WHo ever posted about the add on fuel tanks is correct.Except they don't remove the seats, the PATS Tanks as they are called are designed to fit in the aft baggage compartment.And IIRC most of the lavatory plumbing is also removed for the ferry flight and installed once it arrives. Also parts of the galley can be removed to cut the weight down too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
