Maybe you guys don't have to put intersection options on the EFB, but maybe to appease the groups wanting to do intersection takeoffs we could manually adjust the runway lengths using the information available? I'm not a developer, but based off what I can see already, it seems as if implementing that would not be TOO much extra work. "Oh I doubt that it can be that much extra work" is always what precedes something that gets you stuck for days or even weeks. Been there, done that. But joking aside. We'll make a note out of this for the future. But we have other higher priorities right now we want to work on. This is not something that would be considered as "release critical" item. And this does not mean either that we promise to deliver it later. We'll see if we manage to fit it in at some point depending on what the future holds. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it is mainly to avoid me looking like idiot. But you are right... But we do not do surprise releases, so you will know some weeks in advance. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the efb and said mcdu import fuel and weights from simbrief and automatically compute CG etc? Kind regards Absolutely. All works like a dream right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in the list with a low priority. I got some of those for FS2004 project, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 1/30/2023 at 7:18 PM, Mathijs Kok said: Yes, yes yes.... things are a bit complex at this moment. Next to the A330 I am also running three other projects that all seems to start right now, so there is loads of contracts to do, databases to be bought etc. Next to that we got super serious spam attacks on the forum from China and we are doing some changes in support, another department I am the manager of. Plus we are dealing with an issue with the A330 engines. It seems utterly impossible to get the correct tables we need to tweak things. If any of you knows the ins and outs of as Trent 700 you could become my next best friend (mathijs.kok@aerosoft.com). Plus my wife insists I need to get a life. I think she means I should spend less on buying parts for the Traction Avant we are restoring and start doing exercise or something. yes me too by the way I did not quite understand what help you need if I can help I have been working at the airport for 10 years I have a lot of contact 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as pilots do not, just as instructor pilots do not. This is really data that belongs to the people who manage the engine performance. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a developer, but based off what I can see already, it seems as if implementing that would not be TOO much extra work. Its also what FlightSimLabs have done with their EFB-performance calculation. If your EFB calculation is done in a proper way, it should get the performance also calculated with additional added intersection data - and that could be easily done by the community. Never underestimate the efford the community could/can do. See flightsim.to, FBW, .. FSL created a team of contributers that added intersection data. No team investment needed but you have literally every airport with every intersection available. However, lets close up this topic here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen from the outside, without your inside perspective, of course, this topic reminds me of the back old days when you were about to release the Airbus X Extended for FSX, 90% of the posts were people asking for a release date haha, and at the end I think it was delayed for a bit too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
