Timing Cabincrew Takeoff Call

[Luke160388 29]

I have noticed that when taxiing to the runway the captain will announce to the cabin crew seats for take off when you are a ) still some way from the runway threshold and/or b ) waiting in line behind AI aircraft to take off.

I have real life recordings of safety videos for different airlines that play whilst taxiing and when the captain makes his announcement they are cut short even though there's a while till I take off.

Is it possible to have the seats for take off announcement a bit later or better still have the option to have it as a command in the green bar at the top "press 1) to tell cabin crew seats for take off"

And the cabin crew announcements welcome aboard, safety video & electronic devices etc etc are stopped if you go to an external view and back to internal. When you go back inside they have been cut short. Is there anyway to allow them to continue playing like the PF & PnF does when changing views?

Or does anyone know what file controls the time/distance that triggers the announcement and I will try to change the distance it triggers it.

This is the extract for the sounds Im talking about correct?

<!-- Prepare for Takeoff -->

is it possible to change the time when prepare for TO is called so its not too early??

Hi,

with the next release the cabin-crew takeoff call will start one plane length before the runway holding point ......

Should be solved with revision 1.15.........
