Documentation Request

First.....congratulations on creating a fabulous simulation.

 

Please could you consider;

 

--using the tab key on the chapter list after the title page of the systems manual. Differentiating the sections by colour/ bold text is fine but would be helped further by laterally offsetting the type ie. tab. The systems document as a whole is great but this list is difficult to use. Even better would be having the document broken down so that you can use the PDF index to jump to a particular section. Jumping around a reference document is what I generally do rather than a straight read through.

 

--can the Vref speeds be placed (or at least their position referenced) somewhere more prominent . This essential info is buried p29-30 "Charts" document.

 

--please please can you provide checklists. The virtual checklist is great for initially learning where everything is but I prefer to use printed out lists when flying. Ideally concise and expanded. With the level of detail in this aircraft it cries out for a good quality expanded checklist; that is one with notes as to why your doing something / tips from real pilots. eg when the engines are starting which of the engine instruments should I check first fuel flow engine temp oil pressure ?

 

Thanks again for a great aircraft

Hi, Tim,

 

We won't be changing anything based on the first two requests. We're simply working within limitation of software of choice for that. Sorry.

 

We'll consider your third request.

[timdickson]

No problems.

 

Thanks for the consideration /  reply.

Jim,

 

I have the printed Checklist in front of me.

 

I was looking very hard but I can not find anything about turning MAIN INV on. 

 

I am not sure but maybe it was already reported here, there is also nothing about it in electronic checklist.

 

I am sorry if it was already discussed but I was learning SAAB recently a lot and it just caught my attention so I thought I ask here.

 

Cheers, AJ

AJ,

 

You are correct… the standard and expanded checklists do not have anything relating to the Main Inverter switch.  But the Electrical Power-Up procedure does… here ya go...

Hi Jim,

 

Thank you very much. Added few steps to my Normal Procedure.

Jim, since we are here. Did you added simplified Electric Checklist items to update?

 

I mean the main ones, GEN and INV.

 

Cheers, AJ
