Title: EICAS VC
Post by jerooum on Dec 16^th, 2006 at 5:49pm

I have had the c130 for a week - its very impressive. One odd question that I cannot find an answer in the docs or here.
In the EICAS VC, the radar is repositioned in the main panel and replaced on the glareshield by a new panel with a lighted "inop" warning. It must be simple but what is this panel???

Many thanks! I have just done a search thro' the manuals without success but I know I should know it!

The only thing I remember from my very limited association with the Fat Alberts for real is "Station Keeping Equipment" - but I had never seen it in action.

We can fly visual formation in FS9 - is this the next step to realism?

Yep, Station Keeping Equipment.

It'd be nice, but I doubt we'll ever have the option to control a few C-130s in formation with it.
