That 767 issue has never occurred to me. As for the L-1011, it's completely different than the other planes you have. It uses INS which is nothing like the FMC. The autopilot is also different. No autothrottle. You have to be careful with vertical speeds too. After takeoff you have to even off for vertical speed to work. You have to manage speed the entire flight. And you have to know the exact coordinates of each way point and its a tricky when it comes to STARs. There's also now 1011-100 performance data I can find but there is a 500 on Sombrief and you can get your coordinates from there. The INS can only hold a maximum of 9 way points. Once you reach waypoint 9 the aircraft will cycle back to 1 and as a result the autoflight will take you back to 1. So either have your flight plan only include 9 or update the INS as you go. I do the latter cause it's more fun. Also you'll be hand flying a lot on final approach. It has ILS but it's an old one and in high wind can't follow it properly. Unlike the other ones it can't land itself. It can line up and descend to the runway but you have to do touchdown which can be tricky if surface wind is high. Theres a lot more to it but I personally love it. Its well worth the price. Its a lot better than the other companies. I suggest watching a tutorial cause if you're used to glass cockpits you'll be lost. It's a big adjustment. I personally get sick of flying computers so I get all the classics I can. I'm dying for other companies A300 and 747 classic. |
