No, it really need a route planned via it's own MCDU. But that is not that hard, I promise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have mentioned a few times they cant get the required information for the A350 tho. A330 will be fantastic tho. A freighter DLC for A330 would also be nice Bu baby steps and we wait for the A330 first! The graphics team is already working on the next Airbus, so there will for sure be one. But at this moment we are unable to say what it will be. 9 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blanderrr 32 Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Will the A330 have secondary flight-plan functions in the MCDU? Though I hear it is generally used in case of an abnormal situation (which I know is out of the scope of this rendition), I have also seen that it is occasionally used in some standard procedures such as circling approaches. Not an actual pilot so what I've said might not even be the case, just watched a couple instructional videos is all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not entirely sure if an A321 neo would make that much sense as Headwind is already working on a fly by wire A321 neo which will (most likely) be very detailed and free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you are a bit confused as SimBrief doe not offer charts. But our EFB will get Simbrief flightplans, online weather (updated any time you want), Navigraph and NavDataPro charts. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondary Flight Plan can be used but not limited to as follows: During departure preparation: Prepare in the following order of priority: ‐ Where available, insert EOPRO ‐ If weather is below the landing minima at the departure airfield, insert the route for an immediate diversion airport. ‐ If there is a chance of a change in runway, SID during taxi or takeoff from an intersection, prepare for it by copying the active fli ght plan and making the necessary modifications (including performance). ‐ If none of the above is applicable, copy the active F-PLN, but modify it at a suitable waypoint for an immediate return. During descent preparation: The SEC F-PLN should be set bearing in mind the following order of priority: ‐ An alternate runway / approach type (as applicable), including PERF APP and GA pages. ‐ Engine Out Company procedure. ‐ If none of the above is practical, copy the active flight plan. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent a long time flying FBW A320 and then the 737 from PDMG came and reminded me that Payware is always better. Exact same with AS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, however if Aerosoft say they aren't going to do the non normal procedures what would the point of the EOSID be? On the flip side, you could argue that because this programming is done every flight it should be included, as then the product is a more accurate representation of a pilot's job 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humter 0 Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Normaly, if an product enters beta-testing it is feature complete. But as Mathijs said there could be couple of betas follow. It all depends on how many bugs pop up and have to be fixed. Could be some weeks, could be some months until the product is so finished, that it could be released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
