Ready to depart for a charter towards Corfu (LGKR)

Hello, I created this checklist that might be helpful to others too. You can grab it here : http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/32937-ixeg-boeing-737-300-custom-checklist-pdf-png/ PS: Let me know if there's something silly in the checklist and I will fix that Version 1.2 released: Many additional checks and limits added, still packed in a compact format.

Flight from EFTP to LEGE

Taking a short break from heavy metal (read: IXEG) Linz, Austria [LOWL] to Portoroz, Slovenia [LJPZ]

Just arrived in Amsterdam after a short flight from Leeds

Interestingly, it seems to have been modelled differently at some point in time:

Just turning the switch on will not radiate - only when the WXR pushbutton is used, will the weather radar start transmitting... Jan

Dear IXEG, First of all, congratulations for the release of this wonderful simulation ! The job you have done is impressive and it made me going seriously on XP10. It's a real joy to fly and to see that systems interacting realistically such as landing lights wattage impacting electrical sources loads. As I am keen on flight modeling and aircraft performance and because you use your own model, I carried out several tests vs FCTM of the 737-300 to check the basic aero model. It turned out that you the model is quite close to the real thing. However I noticed 3 small gaps you could fine tune : - the wings generate too much lift: IXEG AOA are always below FCTM AOA by almost 1 deg - this discrepancy may affect induced drag as a side effect. It seems that you fine tuned drag so that descent path match at heavy weight (121 000 lbs). If you carry out a 80 000 lbs descent test, a slight gap in flight path from FL 200 start to be visible. - braking distance: I used unfactored figures at max manual braking + rev + spoiler. Landing distance are shorter than what FCTM says. I dunno if it's reverse thrust or wheel braking that is too strong. Further investigation is required there. - 1 Engine out performance is quite good as you fall into an acceptable error margin for N1. A gap start to arise at high altitude and high weight (15000 ft/135000 lbs) but this may link to lift/issue cited above. I didn't have much time to check engine model, but will do as soon as I can. Please, take it as constructive critcism. I really enjoy your bird and wih you a great success. Philippe IXEG 737-300.xlsx

it makes the tiller act as in reality, but the yaw still have 100% control over nose wheel, I guess the only solution would be a setting in the plane when you have separate YAW/Tiller axes configured…

Engines spooling down.. Preparing for our flight back to Leeds

IXEG 737 Garuda Indonesia View File C/N 28573, type 737-36N, 1st flight 05. Jun 1998. Leased 16. Jun 2003 by Garuda Indonesia (PK-GGX) from GE Capital Aviation Services (GECAS) until 01. Dec 2004. Since 25. Mar 2014 leased by Canadian North (C-FKCN), MODE S C01AAA. Still a beauty today.

IXEG 737-300 USAir 1980's (Allegheny Inspired) View File Hi All, This is, oddly, my favorite of the USAir, US Airways liveries, likely because I grew up flying Allegheny. Anyway, I modified scubajuan's very nice ALL bare metal to create this 1980's era USAir 737 Enjoy. If someone is patient, I could not figure out how to get the upper lines on the nose to stay level and straight. Still, we're close.

Be sure that the degrees portion of the longitude contains 3 digits. In other words, if your longitude is 75 degrees, 14.5 minutes west, you would enter in as W07514.5 or if the longitude was 5 degrees, 14.5 minutes, you would enter it as W00514.5 Likewise, the latitude degrees entry needs to be two digits, with a leading zero if the current latitude is less than 10 degrees. Not sure if this is the cause of your problem, but it is one common user error that would prevent the IRS from accepting the PPOS. Although it is possible to enter your present position directly into the IRS control unit in the overhead panel, the more typical procedure would be to key it in using the FMS CDU.

Ok so I narrowed it down to the Tugmaster plugin. With this disabled everything is good. Now I can watch wonderful replays of my terrible landings lol Will research a newer version of this Thank you for the quick reply Jan Richard

There are no "real" GPS approaches in the 733 as in the NG. Use LNAV and VNAV/VS/FLCH to fly the vertical app according the charts. Remember that you can not set the GA Altitude in that case.

Alright, so after Jeremy and I tried a couple of things earlier today, turns out that xjoymap struggles with binding keyboard commands and saving them after X-plane restart. My thoughts are that there are some limitations to the plugin on how i handles registrations of keys to commands with set values (ie. on/off etc). In other words, I haven't figured out how to define values for the keyboard instead of my joystick ;o) Further investigation will be done. One thing I'm struggling with is combining commands. For example, if I want to combine both turnoff lights into one command (one switch), there are several examples on how to do so. One in particular, that seems the most logical one, is to define the light as separate commands with different names, giving them the correct dataref and values of course as, then combining these two into a third command that puts them both together I mentioned earlier. There are several working examples (ie. the CRJ200 that combines both generator switches for instance), but for the life of me, I can't get it to work in the 733. I've tried to change the values in every direction, and change the value system itself (from on_value/off_value to value = 0, 1) and visa versa, but it simply does not work. Does anyone have some insights into this? The example from the CRJ with my comments. I'n my config file, I changed the commands and datarefs to match the 733 ;Creating the first command [Elec Gen1 Switch] new_command=crj200/electrical/Elec_Gen1_Switch dataref=CRJ/elec/gen1_sw values = 0, 1 ;Tried with on/off values as well :Secong command [Elec Gen2 Switch] new_command=crj200/electrical/Elec_Gen2_Switch dataref=CRJ/elec/gen2_sw values = 0, 1 ;Combining them both [Elec Gen both Switch] new_command=crj200/electrical/Elec_Gen_both_Switch main_command=crj200/electrical/Elec_Gen1_Switch, crj200/electrical/Elec_Gen2_Switch values = 0, 1 ;Also tried to change values here to different types to see if this made any progress. It did not. If we are able to do this, it would be an extremely awesome feature. My plans are to combine turnoff-light, pitot heats, FLT/GRD, CabinSignal, strobes etc into one switch that I turn on/off when entering or exiting the runway. Would help reduce the workload dramatically. The spring-switch problem I had in earlier post, was solved by defining values (= 0, 1) in stead of setting on/off values. This is very useful, as one could for instance define that a button does something "while pushed" or "when pushed".

It is not IXEG:s responsibility to add turblence to the simulator. It is the weather injector itself. If I remember it correctly, you get only turbulence if using NOAA plugin or X-Plane default weather. FSGRW does not provide turbulence.

Time to go Fish'in Currently at L35 Big Bear Ca. USA

Great shot guys!

I would love to see the Candian north design done please

Then don´t do that! This is not a NG! I suggest you look at some of the tutorials - in this case I would suggest tutorial #4. Have fun, Jan

Not trying to start a flame, but asking about sales figures is not being impolite, it's just being curious. Many people, including the press and news articles, ask this to major companies such as apple.

I don't care about the sales figure, I was just curious about the number of planes sold. If the devs wish to keep that number a secret because they don't want people to know their income, fine. It's just impressive the amount of liveries, reviews, videos, etc. this release has created, which naturally triggered my curiosity on how many virtual hangers this has filled.

Sir, Stop being ridiculous. You actually got caught stealing/sharing your software and you already admitted to this. You tried to rub it off a bit by saying it was just someone in your family (in completely different geographical regions, I might add). When you purchase software, that software is for you. If you share it, that's piracy. End of story! We absolutely did have proof, and you acknowledged that in e-mails! You and yottaflopped did not have the same situation. I know of no others complaining but you two, and you're only complaining once caught. No, because we know you were. It's clear as day. We even told you the exact name of the person you were sharing with and you acknowledged it. There is nothing more to discuss here. Don't share products. That's the bottom line.

Hi guys, I justed wanted to say congrats and thank you for this wonderful addon! You really did a great job! I started flying the 737 classic in FS2002 with the dreamfleet 737 (does anyone remeber? ) and since then I always hoped for a 737 calssic like yours! The atmosphere is unbelievable (the sounds, the lighting, the graphics, the symmetry of the flight deck, the....)! I'm an P3D pilot but I only bought myself Xplane, to be able to enjoy your work. And I have to say that it was the best thing I did for a long time in flight simulation! This bird is going to be heads up with PMDG and Majestic as soon as you implement all stuff you listed. And making a thread where you show all the "shortcomings" of a product is just amazing! Such honesty is really trustworthy and I'm happy to support you and your hard work with spending some money on this airplane. I wish every developer would handle things like that. You're rellay a great role model in this part. All the best, (I have to fly it now ) Julian

I think it's a nice paint of KD-Avia. Every unit had it's own personal name. Can I request EI-DOO named Yuriy Antonov?

You most likely flicked the "light test" switch on by accident. I really wonder if there is something amiss with your computer, because the problems you are describing are pretty much not seconded by anyone else? I hope you can figure it out, Jan
