Title: few questions
Post by arpom on Dec 29^th, 2011 at 2:14am

hi

I am new for CS727, but have hundred hours spent using DreamFleet727.
My questions:

1. Is it so in real, that beacon and strobe lights are combined together ?
2. I cannot hear any announcements, neither from flight attendant nor from captain.
3. Why is it possible to close tie breakers of engine generator without any prior synchronisation ? Synchronisation lights does not work at all.
4. Engine start (spooling up) is very rapid, engine RPM is rapidly going up and then fast slowing down - it looks like not realistic way.
5. Suggestion - in future update it would be nice to have HSI as separate 2D view, cause yoke sometimes is making navigation impossible.

All in all, in spite of all bugs i love this bird, VC is outstanding !

Hi arpom.

1) I believe it is.
2) Reload the 727 to bring the sounds back (known bug). I have assigned the keyboard command CTRL+SHIFT+R to Aircraft (reload), so it only take a couple of seconds to reload the aircraft.
3 & 4) I don't know the answers to these ones.
5) It could be easier to have a click spot that makes the yokes hide/unhide (as it is in the CS 707).

Hi Mark,

Thx for your answers.
This is strange, nobody see that generators synchronisation is dummy function?
DreamFleet727 in FS9 had it working.

I've tried to load plane two times but it does not work for me.

Mark, finally i figured out sound problem, one .dll file was missing, now plane reload is working.
All in all accuracy and functionality of 727 systems is on embarrassing level.
It is a shame for CS to use customers as beta testers...

I am much afraid that patch 2.5 will not fulfill our dreams.
Reprogramming of fuel, electric or pressurization systems is huge job, and i do not know if CS have enough time and enthusiasm to do it...
