I can´t check right now, but I think we tied up the volume knobs to the default datarefs, so they should work just like on any other aircraft. I don´t use ATC comm at all when flying (virtually), so I can´t answer this with confidence, but try to turn the reception control knobs (if lit, reception enabled, turn to adjust volume). Jan

Lufthansa, for one. Jan

You need to click real fast . No, you are correct - it is a bug and I see what we can do. Thanks for reporting it, Jan

Hi Tom, I am not totally sure if there is an extra logic in place if one AP is already in CMD...but usually the A/T will engage in MCP SPD if an AP is turned from OFF to CWS or CMD. So, yes, the behaviour is intended as we coded it. Cheers, Jan

Hi Tamas, thanks for the feedback - especially the constructive part! We are aware of issue 1 and 2 - and will take your feedback on #3 into account. Further refinements and additions are on the way in the form of patch 1.1 - which is due "soon" tm. Cheers, Jan

Just set the transponder to AUTO and you should be set (this is mode S, which incoporates C). To squak IDENT, just momentarily push the IDENT button. Jan

Hi and thanks for the report...it is possible that something got changed (messed up) during the course of the 7 frantic hotfixes we put out between the making of the tutorial and today... I know Tom has fixed a problem with the RTE page, which might just be the problem you experienced. As long as the LEGs page is showing the desired routing you should be ok, but thank you very much for reporting the discrepancy! Cheers, Jan

Thanks for the report, we have done some work on a similiar problem (where you have a sharp kink in the route), but this looks like something else... I will see if I can reproduce it on our 1.1 testbuild... Jan

Good find, guys! Added to the list. Jan

Ah, ok - I didn´t know that - I thought it was a live taping of the actual event. I would say let´s see if it resurfaces with the new turbulence model in 10.51r2 and on, and then we can take a look. Thanks, Jan

My wild guess as to the most promising cure would be: You need to invest in some capable hardware. Cheers, Jan

Ok, had a bit of time to look at the video: Something unrelated to turbulence is going on. The speed cursor is stuck at 250, yet the magenta speed bug on the EADI is close to 340. The FMA is boxed all the time (it should stop after 10s). The vertical page says ACT CRZ - indicating the plane is in cruise mode, not in climb mode.... Not sure what is happening, haven´t seen that myself. Jan

Yes, please make sure you updated to the latest XP beta (10.51r2) An excerpt from the patch note for that 10.51r1: Turbulence reduced when using real weather. Cheers, Jan

Don´t quote me on that, but you may be able to simply move the folder over to the new installation...The activation is validated "per machine" - so there is no need to validate again, I think. Jan

It will PRIMARILY be released for XP10. That version is what we officially support. We expect the plane to work in XP11 and will certainly work fast and hard to make it compatible (if it should not be) - but XP10 is the prime base simulator for 1.1 Jan

Hi, I am not sure if Cameron is fully back up to speed yet after getting hit pretty hard with hurricane Matthew (think he evacuated). There might be a backlog of support requests due to that... Hope to see you up and flying again soon, Jan

Hi - I think you will see XP11 a bit sooner than 1.1. We fully expect the 737 to "just work" with XP11, but you never know, so we will want to test it briefly against XP11, especially since 1.1 isn´t quite done yet. It is just entering final testing, which we expect to last a few weeks. Cheers, Jan

Woah, that sounds like quite the ride! I fortunately haven´t experienced anything like that, and without a video of it (to see what modes you were in exactly) it is very hard to reconstruct what was going on... If you can recreate the experience with distinct steps to take so I can reproduce it, I would be very interested to hear them so we can fix that happening. Thanks for the report, Jan

Here is a shot I took while descending with 300kts IAS (which is recommended for a windmill start) with engine no.2 shutdown. You can see the N1 and N2 values are not 0, but instead very much what I would expect to see in the real aircraft. Hope this helps, Jan

No, we are not using a full external model for the engines. We are simply tweaking the thrust values according to altitude and Mach no, the EGT during startup phase and the fuel flow to be in line with the real engine. So almost everything else you see (oil pressure, temperatures, windmilling N´s etc.) are default X-Plane. There are no immediate plans to change that - even though some people are obsessed with having these things right after scrutinizing countless youtube videos, most real pilots would not be able to tell you what the oil temperature at cruise or the windmilling N1 at 300kts would be. It is possible to windmill-start the engines at the correct parameters in X-Plane, and that is all I care about for now. It would be great to have a high-fidelity simulation of the whole engine, but right now the time/benefit ratio is prohibitive. Cheers, Jan

There is on some models, but not on the one we portray. Cheers, Jan

There will be no 1.0.8 - the next version will be 1.1. And I don´t think it will have the holding function in 1.1 - but we eventually will get it. Jan
