  1. PREF INIT finished? The page sequence is kinda screwed in IXEG's FMC, not sure if it's due to it simulated a very old version of FMC software or just a bug, you just can't R6 to all pages needed for preflight.
  2. When moving FLT/GRD switch to GRD after landing, I noticed the cabin rate goes to 3000fpm when depressurization, that would be very unconformable for people onboard I guess.. When moving to FLT it downs at -500fpm, not great but much more manageable... There is no number on Manual, but I afaik there is no rumor about burst ear eardrum on every 737CL flight then....
  3. With XP's default parking brake system, you can't have parking brake set with brake pedal fully pressed, However it's possible in P3D with FSUIPC, or with Zibo 737. I already got this kind of muscle memory by pressing pedal full in, pull the parking brake then release the pedal, so the current system on IXEG 737 is kinda annoying... I'd like to it works as follows: the parking brake could be set wit both pedals higher than 75%, and will keep engaged all the way you releases the pedal after set, it only resets until break pedal released to like 50%, then require over 75% press on both side to be able to disengage.
  4. Let's hope they are taking time to work on FMC and Autopilot function, as promised before release.
  5. Just made a spreadsheet for calculating landing distance based on QRH data,so far only normal config have done. I know there are some other apps out there, but they sometimes lack some data or use old set of QRH data, so I made my own anyway, and I think it could also be convert to other Boeing type easily. landing distance 733.xlsx All the codes are hidden in the dark, not very elegant but works, seems it could be inefficiency if I try to add NNC part, but anyway....feel free to play around and add your own code/data. I start this project with 733 is because I know IXEG is very good on it's flight dynamics, unlike some other add-ons using the RW data doesn't make sense...But,Wow I didn't expect this.... missed the target by a whole 2 meters!
  6. When loading passengers in the new preflight menu, I noticed that passengers are about 100kg even with wt factor at 1.0, but my company use 74 as average weight per passenger including baggage. I know I can dial down the number to get correct ZFW anyway, but since the new perflight menu already looks really nice, and the Wt.Factor lever is already there, could you just add a function to able it be dialed down to like 0.5? Thanks!
  7. I see this in Quest3 with XP11 once, but after reload the VR (Disable by the button then Enable it back by menu) it disappeared
  8. I just don't think nuke everything and redownload them is the bast way to go... even including the navdata I mean...
  9. ixeg/733/gear/gear_handle_act = 0.5 should do the work. I use FlyWithLua to create a command for that.
  10. 737-300 doesn't support Flaps 10 TO, only 1,5,15 -400 and -500 don't even support Flaps1 for TO.
  11. Hmm, I think I could already do that in FlywithLua, the problem is I don't have much button to spare on something not so time critical. Actually maybe I can just use FWL to hold it for like 5 sec.....But as I remember last time I try to write something like this I find FWL doesn't came with handy timer function like "Sleep.5000" in FSUIPC.
  12. I don't think I'd have time to do that, I'll continual my normal hobby flying with all the plugins I need. If I see it again I'll report, but I'm not going to try to catch it.
  13. IRL the fire test procedure call for hold the test switch and push the bell cutout button to see if the cutout also works, currently in IXEG with a mouse input it's not possible, could it be make that the fire test switch and cargo fire test button in test position hold until further input, or for like 5 seconds so we can check the cutout switch?
  14. I noticed in 1.5.1 APU still only draw fuel from No1 rather than CTR tank. My condition is on the ground with engines off and APU on, ELEC established on GPU, only center L PUMP on and all other pumps were off, and center tank have enough fuel, about 1600kg+.
  15. Minor aesthetic issue but caught my eye, the shadow for altimeter needle point a little higher than the needle itself, and seems proportional to the altitude, as it seems more obvious when at high altitude.
  16. Something likely to happen every now and then on different aircraft add-ons I have, but still I think it might be worth to report. as I'm the one who like to be AFK while cruising... Log.txt RJSCZBHH.fpl
  17. Just BTW the update process (basically uninstall and then install new one) well clean out the installed new cycle, could the update process be changed to not touch the navdata part?
  18. R-TO means reduced TO thrust, on NG it's R-TO for ATM only, and TO1/TO2 for derate (and it could also be R-TO1/R-TO2) , or there is a option to show D-TO for all kinds of reduced thrust. But not sure if it's true on CL then. You can set the N1 bug manually by pull out the little knob on the button corner and rotate it, it won't change what FMC and Autothrottle do, but only for your visual reference when manually control the throttle.
  19. It kinda bother me as I'll have to use the PACKs to cool the airplane (or to warm it up few month later) when parking at jetway with ground AC unit hanging down. So could it possible add the low pressure conditioned air input as a ground service? And who could forget about the chocks...
  20. I don't care the visual outside of cockpit too much, so I can stand without a openable 3D car door, but I'll need a proper cargo door indicator in the cockpit, and mind you, it came with many flavor as there are many 3rd party company working on the cargo conversion.
  21. MCP panel when in daylight, the panel marker is black, not white as all other panel is. And the LED number indicator on EIS is just unreadable. number LEDs on after elec panel is also very dim, I'm not sure if it's actually true on real aircraft, but I think they should be designed to be readable in day light with panel lights off then?
  22. 1. Left LE Flaps transition light, both when testing and when actually using flaps, it lit up a little bit, but way to dim, almost like it's out. 2.A/T LIM, OIL FLITER BYPASS are out, seems there is no failure for them to be trigger then? 3.All other light except engine/APU fire warning on fire panel, as I could remember they works fine in day light, both when doing both light test or fire test at night condition, they seems too dim.
  23. After few more flight I can say the rotation (both TO and LD) issue is the most annoying one, even the LVII bug I can get around, and all other bugs I can make a flight condition that get avoid, but only this one.... even with anticipation, the muscle memory on my home setting is hard to replace, explically when all other flight going smoothly so I almost forget these 2 kinks.
  24. I'm not sure why IXEG would pick up G/S on the upwind, literally miles away from the GP beam, I don't think I have ever seen that on PFD, but you know that's not where eyes would be in a take off... I see some general GPWS introduction says it requires RA be over 30' and gears down, not sure if it's also required on 733 but sound reasonable. But even if it's there, if you retract gear a little bit slower, it might still trigger one or two calls then.
  25. When taking off, it's standard practice for us to tune the T/O runway ILS just in case especially when there is no other navaid need (eg. RNAV SID) But When I do it in IXEG 733,I got "Glide slope" GPWS call right after lift off, and I see the GP indicator on my EADI show full up, only after climb for about 200 feet, the GP moved down and the alarm shut off. It's not even a runway with same ILS frequency on the opposite way, there is no ILS on the other side, I know there might be some sort of radio interface might cause such indication, but I believe it should not trigger the GPWS then? BTW I have NAV1 on ILS while NAV2 on VOR.
