captainamerican Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 I think it would be cool if there could be a plugin or system in the Avionics where cabin announcements are made. That would just add on to the fun and realism of the aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

79carboy Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) I have a Mac Pro 2009, 512mb video, guys did you see the new mac pro design on the apple website? Man that looks like it came out of star trek.. My local radio station put up a picture of the pro compared to a new york city trash can! ( Yes I STILL listen to radio. old fashioned. I know) Here is the picture (though not from my radio station) http://www.sfgate.com/technology/businessinsider/article/The-New-Mac-Pro-Looks-Like-A-NYC-Subway-Trash-Can-4598635.php Edited June 14, 2013 by 79carboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael_Chang Posted June 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 A talented friend of mine has just built new GEnX engines for the 787, it's a WIP right now, and will be done in a few days, the new engines are higher in polygon count and make it easier to add details that were previously impossible to achieve. RR engines and new landing gear will follow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael_Chang Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 hiroshi's research into the 787-10, apparently, the new 787-10 won't have triple bogies, and will instead have an SLG that will keep contact with the ground and force the rear wheels against the ground during the landing and takeoff phases, essentially making the gear behave as though it's longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_Chang Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 (edited) A shot of the potential 10. Essentially, the SLG forces the front of the gear up, pushing the rear of the gear into the ground, effectively making the gear higher (except only on the rear wheels) this allows the plane's angle of attack to be higher without tailstrikes. The reason it works on this plane and not on the -9 or -8 is because they don't have SLGs and the gear bogey is just free-hanging.

Hamellious Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 (edited) Hey I was wondering if you could release a beta or some thing like that or... even though it may seem crazy maybe you could let me try it out, and i was wondering if i could get rights to try to create a VC for the 767 and a livery Edited June 20, 2013 by Hamellious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the 767, we can't give you rights to it, however you're more than welcome to create a VC for it without modifying any other parts (meaning no modification of objects or the .acf file). If you succeed, show me the final result and if it doesn't violate any rules, you can upload it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
