  1. 30C is the minimum TASS iirc.
  2. Feels like it, sometimes . "Dont fly angry!"
  3. Thanks! Jan
  4. This is due to you levelling off in descent while in VNAV PTH. The VNAV descent is not fully working correctly yet... so if you see this revert to MCP SPD or some other mode except for VNAV. Jan
  5. Who else likes the great movie "groundhog day"?
  6. Dont set Navaids for possible engine failure, its bad luck . Seriously, normal procedures ask for setting navaids for departure and subsequent navaids, you would only set the ILS if you really needed it (LFML for example). In the real world the GS would not show on "other" side of ILS, but you can just cancel the warning by pushing on the light. Jan
  7. You are right, the correct sequence of pages to show when INIT REF is pressed has been on my list for a good year, but its hard to get devtime for that . Still many more pressing issues to fix first. Thanks for the report, Jan
  8. Fahrenheit is a derelict measurement of temperature used by backward people, only. Get with the program, its kilograms, meters, seconds and errr Kelvin, erm, Celsius... . seriously, I dont think they use Fahrenheit in serious aviation even in the U.S... Jan
  9. Also check if you have gusty crosswinds set. Jan
  10. Not yet. You can visualize those points by using the FIX page. Cheers, Jan
  11. Hmm, I will take a look at this when I get home from vacation in two weeks! Thanks for the report, Jan
  12. You can see these clouds through the terrain (mountain tops), too. So I think its a Laminar bug. Jan
  13. We are still investigating this, but there may have been a last second **** up on our side just before 1.2 went out . We had them working at one point in time just before the update and its not quite clear if we missed a setting or if Laminar changed something. At any rate, we definitely plan to bring reflections back. Jan
  14. Entering this to make conditipnal waypoints does not work yet. Planned for a future update. Cheers Jan
  15. Hi Ian, its on the list for future improvements. Cheers, Jan
  16. Simply a safety addition. If there is a lot of wind, chances are it may get gusty/turbulent near the ground (buildings,trees,etc.). More speed also enhances controllability, provides more stall margin/better energy reserve for a go-around and lessens WCA. Jan
  17. Hi, can you show a short video or some screenshots that illustrate what is going on? Thanks, Jan
  18. Yeah, with the seatbelts in OFF we turn lights on. With AUTO they follow the flight phases (bright during boarding, dim for takeoff etc) but with ON they are always off, because they bleed light into the cockpit (current XP11 limitation) and puristst (like me) want a way to turn that off. Jan
  19. Thanks for the report Stefan, we will try to verify and see what is going on... Cheers, Jan
  20. Not sure about other airlines but we used a minimum correction of 5 knots. So no wind target is Vref+5. Cheers Jan
  21. Confirmed and a feature. For XP11 use the XP11 default pushback. The old XP10 pushback wont work anymore due to ground model changes in XP11. Cheers Jan
  22. Hi Tim, crossing my fingers that that was the problem... keep me informed if it happens again! Thanks, Jan
  23. Hi mfor, I am not really sure what the frequency of a full bus failing is, but Boeing provided dedicated abnormal procedures for some of them, so I guess it happens. All you need is a wire chafing and subsequently shorting. The highest probability of an electrical problem is most likely one involving moving parts - like the engine generators (breaking) or the breakers ("glueing"). But I also heard of total electrical failures with the battery charger not working and the battery getting totally drained and dropping the generator buses offline in flight, I myself haven´t had any problems with the electrical systems in 10 years of flying the 737. We dispatched with an engine generator inop one day (MEL allows that), and I had a generator drop off the bus during single-engine-taxi in one day, but thats it. Cheers, Jan
  24. Thanks for helping me check this out! Cheers, Jan
