Title: Re: V-One Gauge for B707-300 with Call-Outs

Hi fsxpaul,

After two flights on a B707-300C (NZAA/YSSY and YSSY/YBCS), using "V-One" and "'Take Off Data Card", I'm glad to say it works very well. Congrats.

But let me put three comments:

1) One thing I've noticed is that [Fuel Used] only starts counting after [V1] be opened. Is it right? Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

2) I've also noticed that "Take-off/Landing Data Card" shows the "Q" code for altimeter setting as [QHN]. Wouldn't be
[QNH] instead of [QHN]?



[QNH] - Barometric pressure adjusted to sea level, used up to 18,000 ft.
[QNE] - ISA standard pressure setting of 29.92 inHg or 1013.2 hPa/mbar, above FL180.

3) Before installing "V-One", to get M.80 @ FL300, thrust levers were adjusted at 72%. Now, it just need 63%. Did you ever notice that?

BTW, I've made a few modifications at icons window (panel.cfg) to allow to include [GPS] and [Kneeboard], besides [V1] and [Take Off Data Card]. Now it shows two columns, with six icons, each one.

Thanks,

Pinatubo.
