Luke160388 29 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Following my previous thread that's being researched I have another idea and wondered if it's possible to implement? At present the taxi checklist is done after pushback and you end up on the taxi way blocking it. In real life I have seen the flaps extended and flight controls tested during pushback. So can this be done for the A320/21 and future aerosoft aircraft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acra24 83 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Good suggestion. In most of the flights I've been on, however, I see the flight controls being cheked during the taxi. Does anyone know if the flight control test is checked in the Before Takeoff CL with some airlines? Regards Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheyenne Chief Pilot 829 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Not sure, Andrew, but I'm curious to see how FS2Crew will handle the flows and checklists. (Talking about alternatives to the built-in C/Ls.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Andrew To do the flight controls during taxi aerosoft would have to make the tiller control work or you would be all over the place! ????

Emi 5161 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Most airlines have the flight Controls checked in the Before Takeoff checklist. What we did is following the Airbus procedures for our Copilot, but more airlines have their own procedure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke160388 29 Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 Is it possible it could be changed in future aircraft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheyenne Chief Pilot 829 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Possible? Yes. Will it happen? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Hi Luke, possible to change? - Yes, but there other priorities we are working on and as it differs from airline to airline we will stick to the AIRBUS procedure ...... Regards, Hanse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheyenne Chief Pilot 829 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Alternatives to the built-in Airbus procedures: - (upcoming) FS2Crew AAX version - MCE (Multi Crew Experience) - FDC (Flight Deck Companion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
