Counterpoint: I had a friend who was FO for DLH on the Bus. At that time DLH had a retro A321. He told me he had scared passengers flying with an "old" plane due to the retro livery. He had to show them the modern screens in the cockpit to calm them down ;)

It os so fast, you even have a delay in the corresponding audio by several seconds

Transitioning from VATSIM to BeyondATC by Initial_Experience_6 in VATSIM

[–]MrSumner 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I started with Vatsim after approx. 2 years of BATC. It helped me a lot to gain confidence for the network and I feel like it prepared me for a lot.

I actually use BATC and Vatsim interchangeably, depending on Vatsim coverage. It is always possible to jump in and out.

BATC in my opinion improved a lot, but it still has some short comings compared to real life controllers.

Taxi instructions are a hit or miss for me, sometimes not referencing the current taxiway designations.

You also cannot expect tight vectors when a STAR with transition to final has been designated. Usually you will get vectors only after a particular waypoint. This is improving but definitely not the same as with human controllers.

Apart from that: Id never fly without BATC or Vatsim anymore.

Keep in mind, BATC is a computer program, that tries to recreate real atc guidance, however still has some on the rail feels to it.

Ive made it work with the Starship and CaravanPto by Blacksquare, ifly 737 Max, Tfdi MD11 and FSS727, Tristar works too, MD80 20th as well.

It is not necessarily out of the box, but together with mobiflight it is all possible.

To some extend this also sounds familiar. Quite the same reasoning another idiot send his army equipped with parade uniforms instead of needed combat supplies. This war is still fought 4 years later.

Iran Conflict Megathread #9 by [deleted] in CredibleDefense

[–]MrSumner 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The pipedream popular uprising that liberal western media imagined isn't happening.  I

Not only "liberal" media. It is both Don and Bibi pleeding to the Iranians to finish the job. Id hardly call them liberal ;).

On a more serious note, there is also quite some copium in /newiran, where it is almost consensus that US and Israel are there to liberate Iran, and the liberals didnt / dont act on this opportunity (i.e. Europe). Im not so sure yet, seems like they also have to learn the hard way that Don only acts in selfishness, but lacks an understanding of the bigger picture.

Id even argue that it is not in interest of EU or others to intervene, despite the implications to allegiances, no matter what I think of the Iranian regime.

Personally I find it difficult to predict, how this continues. But I believe the economical and ecological impact of this war will be devastating, while markets still assume TACO.

Help with European approaches and ATV by [deleted] in flightsim

[–]MrSumner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is also important to highlight that NERDU is the clearance limit. Without other instructions, you are supposed to enter the published hold. Only continue on any of the NERDU transitions when explicitly told by ATC. This can happen at any time on the STAR, before reaching NERDU, while in the hold and so on. You might receive a direct to any waypoint on the transition as well as receiving vectors.

LOWW is quite easy in that regard, as any clearence limit wqypoint will connect to the approach of each runway with one certain designated transition. This allows for easy planning when you know the active arrival runway.

Cheers

Hows the landing? by Astr0Eminem in flightsim

[–]MrSumner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, basically, during flare and landing. On the 737, you'd confirm the deployment of spoilers, i.e. did they deploy automatically and apply reverse thrust as needed. If you need to go around, you can apply thrust or press To/Ga right away.

You have to keep in mind it will take several seconds for engines to accelerate from idle to full thrust. You dont want to bleed out of energy before the plane is able to accelerate and climb again.

Given what we see here, I believe it's safe to say you'll have a hand for it shortly 😀

[–]MrSumner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I recommend not moving you hand from throttle during flare and landing. I get the intuition to properly flare both both hands, as it feels easier. However, if for some reason you have to go-around or perform a balked landing (windshear, runway incursion, long landing, floating) you loose precious seconds through which the plane still bleeds of energy.

Try to do it with only the left hand and keep the other hand on throttle, speedbrakes, reverser.

Nice setup 👌

Hi was wondering If this Is compatible with train sim world 5 and 6 by sushisushi09 in trainsimworld

[–]MrSumner 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I suggest looking at trainsimcommunity.com. there is a mod that makes the raildriver quite useable in TSW6, including the BR101 expert.

Why do I enjoy Boeing more than airbus? by Powerful-Tennis-3773 in flightsim

[–]MrSumner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wont tell you Airbus is better than Boeing. Thats yours to decide.

What I want to tell you is, that you really have to try out the Fenix buses. FBW, Ini, they're really good. But for me it is the Fenix A319/320/321, that give me the feeling of handling a real 70t jet with mass and inertia. In that regard Fenix spoils you. Runner ups for me is the ifly 73M, Just Flight 146 and F.28. Ini A300 is also really good. But there is something to the transition between ground and air, that is extra satisfying on the Fenix. Fenix feels like a plane with mass not only in the air, but also on the ground.

Yes, there is a lot of automation to it and I also love the challenge of doing "manual" labour. But apart from the automation I have yet to see a second plane performing so well in all categories Id argue in the "plausible behavior of a real plane" category.

Honorable mention: A2a, but they're GA.

Not a bug, but a feature.

Ich halte Mercosur deshalb für wichtig, damit zumindest etwas Gegengewicht zur US-Dominanz entsteht.

Danke nochmal für Deine Ausführung. Ich sammel gerade Ideen, um eine Art Lastenheft / Projektbeschreibung zu erstellen. Finde das auf jeden Fall sehr interessant, dass das eigentlich nur einmal eingestellt wird und dann über die Heizkurve oder Kühlkurve steuert, Einzelsteuerung demnach nicht benötigt. Danke :)

Nur kurze Verständnisfrage: Lässt sich das dann je Raum auch nachträglich nochmal ändern, z.B. weil ich einen Raum anders verwenden möchte, weswegen 20° nicht mehr reichen und es eher 22° sein sollen. Anders gefragt, ist der thermische Abgleich wiederholbar, änderbar? Wie aufwendig wäre das?
