Received this email today from Tanguy. Awesome photo, so I thought I'd share it (with permission) I'm a B737 pilot with more than 1500h on B737/300/400/500W and wanna congrat IXEG for the amazing product you created. Im Very impresed with the fidelity. Still some minor bugs and fix but its awesome. Attached is a pic for you guys. Kind Regards! Tanguy

At LEBL they use the parallel runway (07L/25R) for landings and occasionally a few takeoffs. That one, 07R/25L, is usually just for takeoffs. But then, of course, you shot that video on a day when there was a NOTAM saying 07L/25R was closed for repairs!. I'll get my anorak... Actually I'm not a total anorak, I go there quite a lot with work, so I've learned the way the airport operates. My flight back is usually delayed so when I'm not getting drunk on Voll Damm beer I do sometimes watch what's going on outside. But you can only watch so many A320's arrive before you lose the will to live and head for the bar, again.

I'm thinking about adding "magic dataref" support to Gizmo that will automatically wrap-up any custom commands that our products create into datarefs that allow third party plugins to drive our stuff. It's a brewing idea at this point, one that needs investigation to see if it will somehow break Gizmo with asynchronous / multiple command activation activity. I may have some "debounce" issues to work through. Essentially you'd end up with something like: magic dataref: gizmo/magic/cmd/ixeg_737/cmd/name/here When you write a 1 to it, I call the Command Start code. If you hold the 1 value in it for the required amount of time, you'll trigger the Command Hold code. When you return the dref value to 0 I call the Command End code. There seems to be a pretty big demand for this when interfacing with various external plugins.. IF this is added it will automatically add complete retro-active support to our products, this includes the Saab, DC3, Corvalis, MU2, IXEG, etc.

I don´t know too much about all the other things you guys were writing about, but what I did notice is that the real 733 ´ rapidly "drops down" on wheels immediately after touchdown and when speedbrakes come up´ exactly like you wrote. The fix you provided for the IXEG 733 looks very promising and I´m certainly going to have a look at it. But since I´m not a big fan of fixes, I really hope that you, IXEG, look at this too and find a way to put this in a future update for the 733. It already is imho the single best aircraft ever developed for any flight sim, especially concerning the flight and ground dynamics, and therefore this would truly take the 733 even one step further ahead! Keep up the great work! EDIT: to apply this fix for now, do I only need to change these constants in plane maker and load the lua fix into my lua scripts folder?

To do it right? Difficult. If you've read anything about this project then you'll understand the entire cabin is slated for a makeover. Adding detail to an area that is destined for destruction and re-do is not productive. In due time. I for one am happy emphasis was put on the systems first. That would have totally broken the immersion for me. Living without detailed cabin lighting for exterior view pleasure is okay with me for the time being. Having said all this, I should add that aside from on ground, cabin lights are traditionally kept OFF at night during flight. Part of this is to not only assist sleep, but also to allow eyes to adjust during critical phases of flight in case of emergency.

Wonderful, thanks Cameron, great to know!
