  1. BTW...after setting the proper parameters, I was able to conduct a safe/uneventful 200NM flight at 20,000' MSL. Thank you sir!!!
  2. Hey Cameron...thank you for your help regarding my MU-2 Pressurization issue.  I remember going over the information contained within the "Users Manual" once you sent that section to me.  Going to attempt a 'high altitude' x/c trip again!  Hope I don't pass out ;)

  3. Quite familiar with all the Air Cond and Pressurization instrumentation but greatly appreciate your in depth explanation and your example. If you're interested, I'd like to send you a pdf copy of the actual wording contained within the real POH on the subject. Email me at <randy.passeno@gmail.com> and I'll do just that. Now, I'm going to attempt another flight using your recommendations
  4. Hi friend..so I have a question: Most (…if not all) of my flight sim flying history has involved flights less than 12,ooo’ mSL. However, yesterday I attempted to ‘fly the MU-2 on a long cross country from Michigan to Alabama. I was attempting to go to fL 20,000, however, shortly after passing 15,000 the whole XP12 computer screen started to slowly black out. When this happened I realized for the first time that XP or the MU-2 app was illustrating a hypoxia “black out” condition because of either a) lack of supplemental oxygen or b) failure to adjust the cockpit pressurization. Q: Have you experienced this and if so, how did you correct it? Thanks in advance.. Randy
  5. Hi 'meierzwo'...sounds like we have rather similar systems/interests As I'm sure you know, there are several 'duplicated' functions that are available via the Bravo and Octavi. What I've come to realize is that given the duplicity, I seem to have developed a system flow where I use various functions of each to coordinate my 'flights system management'. For example, flying the MU-2, even though I have the option to control Vertical Speed via the Bravo, I simply press the "AP" button on the Octavi and control not only my VS (...small knob) but rather the chosen altitude I wish to climb/descent to (...large knob) and use the Bravo to control HDG, NAV and APR. Hope all this makes sense
  6. Greetings from Grand Rapids, MI. Your query regarding the MU-2 caught my eye in that it is the only aircraft I am currently flying in XP12. It is the TOGA MU-2 and I fly it with the Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo in addition to the Octavi IFR-1. A great airplane to fly (...plus I have a fellow CFI-I who has over 900 hrs in a full scale MU-2B-25). Don't know if I can help, but I'm willing to try.
  7. Hey friend...thank you. I'll do just that and let you know.
  8. Hi folks - Situation: Windows / XP12.1.0-rc-2 / TOGA MU-2. Everything is working fine except one little thing is bugging me. I show the GTN-750 off to the side which is great for actual use of it. However, there is a black screen GTN-750 on the actual panel - there is a 750 there but it's like it's powered down. I've tried different ways including setting the 750 as a default instrument on the MU-2 settings panel, all to no avail. Would certainly appreciate any helpful thoughts or 'fixes' from one of you sharp minded people out there. Best regards, Randy
