Swen 20 Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Ok, what i do: Fly ILS set Speed to Green Bug + 5. So when i'm in slope than seems been that the bird is to much pic up the nose to the sky. I've i read out right on ADI 5 degrees ore more. Are there some kind of tips or anything? I cant see the runway out of 2D. I think thats normal, course its IFR Panel? Is there a way to get an VFR Panel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveA300 2 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Someone can give us an answer about this? Thank you Hi If you fly the approach on the 2d with the widescreen panel on a standard monitor you get this issue, using the standard 2d panel fixes this and you should be able to see the runway.

Swen 20 Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 Steve, i can't confirm this. I have a 16:10, but i fly in window mode. I put my fsx to 4:3 and i can't see the runway. I will put a screenshot tonight. Then you can see if i do something wrong. PS: But thats an IFR panel. Most planes in fsx won't show runway. Solution ctrl + q. Other way to switch in VC and put seat up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This widescreen was an issue for some other user who have changed to standard and do get the view you would expect from the aircraft on app on the perfect glide path at correct speed. Like you said if you want a better view the answer it to boost the seat height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes for some reason only known to MS, you can no longer move you seat up in the 2D panel so you are stuck in a situation where you either but your seat up so high you don't see what's happening in front of you while taxiing or so low you can't see the runway at very low approach speeds. You can either go to 3D view for the landing where moving the seat up will work fine, or use a slightly higher approach speed (say 135kts) and zoom out to 0.4x zoom or less. It takes a while to get used to this view but I mostly set my zoom to 0.5x or less in 2D because the default FSX view is much too narrow in 2D compared to a real life situation.

SLKVP 18 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Hi Ctrl+Q lowers 2D pilots' viewpoint Ctrl+Shift+Q raises 2D pilots' viewpoint Does it help ? Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvaro 33 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I will check if this works, if it does... I will be happier for sure. Thanks Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balus 43 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 the Ctrl-Q idea doesn't work in the2D cockpit. I have found that if I click on the top of the panel and move it down about 1 cm then I can see the runway with no problems - only needs to be done in the landing phase.
