You need to reach 10 posts before you can start a new topic. This is an Anti Spam measure that Captain Sim uses for the forum. Undecided

Unfortunately, I can't answer your question about the 727 Base Pack, but Tanya can. You will just have to wait for her response Wink

Thank you for interest.
You can still use them if you want, there will be no issues. But if you would like to have all features of base pack and will want to use 727-200 Expansion with base pack you may buy discounted upgrades: http://www.captainsim.com/products/x727/discount.html

Hi,
I purchased the 727-100 Base Pack recently. (707, 737 too)
I am mightily impressed and am getting my head around this one before tackling the others. 

My question is - does a Service Pack or something exist for this
airplane, or do you have to manually install all the tweaks etc separately ?

The only change I have made so far is to install the V-One Takeoff and Landing Gauge with Sounds by fsxpaul - On this forum

If you do have to manually install the tweaks etc, is there a best order to do it in ?
Am simply trying to avoid swapping air files constantly and editing the airplane.cfg etc all the time.

Enjoying learning the autopilot on this one - NOT lol.
Thank you.
Terry.

Hi Terry.

A lot of mods for the 727 are provided by forum members. I don't use any of them.

The autopilot works much better if you have the Acceleration Expansion Pack installed. FSX Gold comes with Acceleration, but I don't know if it has to be installed, or not. Undecided

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply mate.
I don't have acceleration but I have SP1, SP2, and FSGlobal 2008.

I may have a look at buying the acceleration. Will have a read
on the old 'google' about it.
Cheers.
Terry

FSX Gold tends to be pretty cheap to buy. I'm not sure about the cost of Acceleration, but I'm sure that you can still get it. Wink

I've just recently bought the 727, recommended by a friend. On a -100 i did a normal load and then cut the engines off. For the flight i was going to make i was told to leave the center tank empty. I made sure that the flow from the left and right tanks is on, but for some reason the aircraft only used fuel from the center tank, which is empty, so i could not start the engines or have them running without fuel in the center tank. Can someone help me solve this issue? thanks

Example on fuel use.

Say a flight requires 40,000 pounds of fuel, then you fill all 3 tanks equally to 12,000 pounds each, then add the additional 4,000 pounds in the centre tank.
For the flight, I will use Tank #2, to feed fuel to all 3 engines, by opening the 3 fuel crossfeed valves. I will leave it like this until Tank #2 has 12,000 pounds remaining, then I will close the 3 fuel crossfeed valves, and let each tank feed fuel to the corresponding engine - i.e. Tank #1 feeds fuel to Engine #1, etc.

If I do a flight that only requires 18,000 pounds of fuel, then I put 6,000 pounds of fuel in each tank, leave the fuel crossfeed valves closed, and let each fuel tank feed its corresponding engine.

All tanks must have fuel in them (although you can probably still fly it without any fuel in the centre tank (Tank #2)), but it is not how the 727 was designed to use fuel. LOU, a former airline pilot that flew the 727, spoke about it in another topic in this forum (the 727 Captain forum), but I can't find it right now. Undecided

Funny, I am here because I have exact the same question Smiley

I only found HD repaints for the exterior, payware on sim market.
Is there anything for the virtual cockpit? I would pay for it if there is one.

Thank you

Do you have the "High Resolution Virtual Cockpit" option enabled in FSX?

Why "master avionic switch" bug still not fixed? It's bug known for more than 5 years, and users regularly ask about it on this forum. It's so difficult to switch master avionics on after switching galley power?
