Title: 707 + ISG FMC and EHSI/ND in vc
Post by znatusch on Apr 2nd, 2018 at 10:34am
The 707 working with ISG gauges: FMC (Smiths), Proline MFD (in VC, replacing radar), and controls.

Working with a triple Civa INS install. Nice to have the extra realism of the Civa systems running alongside the FMC (as most/many FMC equipped aircraft seem to have INS anyway).

The FMC LNAV may be engaged when in the A/P is in Nav mode (provided first INS is turned off or in ATT mode, otherwise it wants to command the heading), and provides positive and smooth flight along the programmed route.

I use the RolASN (freeware) wx radar as a pop-up, which seems to consume less resources than the existing radar and provides more useful returns.

Having a proper FMS with updatable Navigraph database is great for PilotEdge, and a bit less crucially so, Vatsim; and simulates operating a beautiful old aircraft in a more real-world and current airspace environment.

Oh and incidentally - TSS's JT3D soundpack for this old girl is absolutely to die for.

NICE¡¡
I have ISG gauges but I do not know how you do what you have done. It is very difficult?

regards ;)

Hi, I have not tried yet. I do not know how to do it. I have ISG but I really do not know how it works. I have looked at manuals but there are things that get out of hand. I'm still flying with INS and basic instrumentation. And today I'm still flying this plane, in this case the E-3

Regards
