I was a pro airbus so I used the airbus Vapp philosophy: Vls ( is the stall speed under 1G with a scurity margin of 23%) I thought boieng used the same philosophy, ie +5 kts was mandatory, guess i'm wrong. so for <B737Ng, you only add the full HD component ? so if no wind, Vapp = vref ? Maybe some B737Cl pilots can shed some lights on the matter

regarding Vapp, i normally use : Vref + 5kts ( mandatory) + 1/3 of HD wind component = Vapp

lol Jan, thats the default one for 10.45 (Steam Version); how should Klax look ? My setting are on high and that's with a gtx 980ti

The probleme is that currently we can only descent at T/D as the the des now is not working currently

yeah that was my first time landing with my left hand as i am a right handed person. even though, I still have a hard time landing on the centerline...

If you clone your old SSD to the new one, you shoud have no issue. otherwise, you'll have to reactivate it. I activated on my desktop and laptop so there is no issue activating on multiple PC it seems.

is that smooth enough ? xD. I now need to learn how to "center line"...

brake to vacate is only the A350/A380 and maybe on the B787

thanls for the tips regarding kiss landing i think it's also based on experience, when you have more than 500 hrs on an aircraft you can do kiss landing with minimal of floating, well thats what i see on the videos

but if you don't select a runway, there is a discontinuity then.... you can still enter the assumed arrival runway and if the wind has changed enroute, you can then change the arrival runway.

i think so, you have to have no discontinuities between your departure and arrival runway,

any way it's not a big deal if you enter the correct ILS course provided in the charts, but could be a big deal if you perform an LNAV approach

Nice writing Rick, maybe you can tell me how to land on the centerline, because I even have lots of trouble to do so even with no crosswind component , and it's a shame because i'm starting to master the flaring. above 200 fts AGL, it seems that I'm aligned on the center line but below 200 fts, well i notice that i'm no way correclty aligned with the center line I've seen lots of pilot making kiss landing and in every conditions ( clear weather, rain, heavy wind, turbulence....) I think as long as you have plenty of runway length, you can afford a kiss landing but not so on short runways. you can see that on this landing , i performed a firm landing knowing that i couldn't afford to float too much because of this short runway.

ah okay, my bad

Ah Okay, i use the HDR one

Normally after entering the flight plan you should : * check the flightplan with the map selection on the EFIS and see if there is no discontinuities...... * Check that the contraints in speed and altitude for each waypoint is respected ( check your airport chart). for you point B, you should have checked the altitude on the airport chart and entered it in the CDU in the leg page, if the chart doesn't provide any altitude contraint for WPT B, just dlete the altitdue and the FMC will recalculate a new value between FL 070-FL060

Well i upgraded from a 970 to a 980ti and i haven't seen any FPS boost even with a 4790k@4.6 Ghz, hopefully i don't only play on xplane10. i still can't believe i'm CPu limited with that CPU. But why as the clouds density is increased, the GPU usage doesn't increase. they are rendered by the GPU but its usage is not increasing ie less FPS, I still don't get As said before, going from clear sky conditions to a cloudy conditions, will result in the same GPU usage but less fps, BUT there are more things to render ( the clouds), why doesn't the GPU increases its workload ? /Xplane10 rant on I hope laminar will make XPlane 11 more multi core firendly because it will suck otherwise. I think that currently even P3DV2/V3 is more optmised (CPU usage > 75% and i was a video where someonne having A SLI with both GPU > 75%. I remember that on p3DV2.3 I could have 30+ FPS with the PMDG B777 with clouds rendering up to 200 Km with ASN, Now with skymaxx, even with the slider at max, it looks like the clouds are rendered up to 30Nm which is less immersive, hopefully the IXEG B737 is here to make me happy on XPlane /Xplane 10 rant over

that's right mate, i went from a gtx 970 to a GTX 980ti and no FPS gains, hopefully I don't play only on Xplane10... and I have a 4790k@4.6 Ghz which is the second best CPU for gaming so even with that CPU, there is no point having a GPU above the 970. However the 1070 is good choice if you have to upgrade as it is a cheap as a GTX970 but with thye 980ti performance and over 6Gb of VRAM.

is there an anti aliasing setting in Xplane ?

I just got it, I saw : SEEDO :172/2500A, I thought you were referring to that 172 which is speed^^

Normal Thrust reduction altitude is 1500 fts AGL unless you have to perform a NDP

If there is a delay, why will a -200 fpm be a hard one ? as the VS is is increasing if I were at -200 fpm while the VSI still increasing ( with a delay) it means that the real VS was >-100 fpm when the VSI showed -200 fpm

Considering how old this aircraft id, IK wouldn't be surprised at all that you MUST intercept the LOC before the G/S, you have to capture the LOC in VOR/ILS before engaging APP. I could be wrong though, I'm still more familiar with the B737 NG and A320 where you can capture G/S before LOC. But I still think that is the normal behaviour

yeah you must, this is not an A320 nor B777, it doesn't set the ILS course automatically. imagine that your ILS course is 180 but is set to 090 on the MCP, you can imagine that you'll never intercept the LOC, lol

or invest in a Gsync monitor. I have a gsync monitor on my laptop and I don't have all these jaggies
