I've updated / upgraded the V-One gauge for the B727...lots of new stuff!

New features in this version are in indicated in 'blue'.

Take-off speed bugs and Command speed bug automatically set for: V1/Vr, V2, V2 + 15.
Flaps-up maneuvering speed (clean speed) bug set after flaps-up.
• Optimum altitude and optimum EPR (EPR calc for M.80) are continually calculated.
• Gross Weight overage will display in 'red' text. Tooltip indicates overweight value (LB/KG).
• Take-off trim calculated for current gross weight.
• Maximum Climb Thrust (MCT) calculated based on current TAT temperature.
Current EPR displayed adjacent to MCT for ease of use during climb phase.
• Display units can be toggled between LB and KG (default LB).
• Outside air Temperature can be toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius.

• Resettable flight timer.
Selectable Vref landing configurations, Vref30 (default) or Vref40.

Hey Paul,

The gauge works to perfection! Of course given your track record and my experience with the B732 gauge, I didn't expect anything less... ;)

Just a heads up though, that the Avsim search criteria in this post doesn't work for some reason. I tried to direct a buddy to it tonight and he couldn't find it so I tried it again with the same result. It worked just fine last night so I have no idea what could have happened since then...

Cheers!

Thanks, Rob.

I found an error in my 'readme' file (I'll never tell what it was! :-X ) and re-uploaded. Avsim changed the name to: V-One Gauge for Boeing 727-100/200/F (Complete). Hey, stuff happens, right?   ::)

Well I'll never tell either.......mainly because I have no idea what it could have been, as I followed the original 'read me' and it worked just fine ;D

The only problem I have now is that you're costing me money ;) I didn't think I needed a 707 in my hangar but since this brilliant gauge will soon be available for it too, I guess I do need one after all 8-) LOL

Again, great work on this amazing addition to the CS round dial series...I'll probably never fly anything else now!
