Will FSP work with Level D 767 & PMDG 747-400?

[FlyBoy2]

Ok question about this thing can you get a copy of the manual from Level-D's Website I would like to print it out but this computer isn't hooked up
to a printer.

Steve,
If enough of my friends can get off we are going to do my original bachelor party location which was Amsterdam. If not we are just going to throw a
blowout in New York. You are absolutely invited Steve, I even have a spare bedroom for you... The more the merrier

Joel,
I believe you can get the manual and if you go to flightsim.com there are also tutorial flights that a few such as Darryll Shutt (I think I got the
name right and Chuck Gerhman (spelling) ) were kind enought o put together. They are absolutely amazing...
Just wait until the flight crew starts complaining about the temp in the cabin LOL


Also, I just got some really positive news from the folks at PMDG about the 747 and FsP

LMAO I am still trying to figure out how to turn my damn Lights on this is a big bird LOL .....I am printing out the 175 manual now and I hope to be
in the air soon

[FlyBoy2]

Im also trying to figure out how to get my jetbridge to my Aircraft LOL I maybe delaying the flight several hours till I figure out how the thing
works LOL

Love the way you ended that message there psolk: "Also, I just got some really positive news from the folks at PMDG about the 747 and
FsP"

Why dont you hold the carrot a little closer now so we can ALL have a taste. Are the 2 programs going to be compatible? please please
please......

"Captain, the passengers are complaining its too cold, can we have the temperature up in the forward cabin?"

and my personal fav:

Flight attendant: "Crew seated captain"
Captain: "Thanks"

I laughed so hard the first time I heard that.

[psolk]

Yeah, I just posted a fresh topic on it. The folks at PMDG have already given their contact info to me to pass on to Dan and have expressed a
definite interest in making the PMDG line compatible with FsP. Amazing how these developers are always so willing. They really love this as much as
we do...

You da man Paul!!

Hey FlyBoy2...you get everything up and running ok?

[FlyBoy2]

Well I have the Airplane loaded and sitting at the gate now if I could only figure out how to turn on the Damn Lights and get the Ramp to the aircraft
I would be a step closer to leaving LMAO

[ACguy]

Well, all your light controls are on the panel you have when the sim starts...top od screen to the right. The nav, strobes, anti-collision,
logo, runway turn offs, taxi and landing lights. On the upper panel you can summon the ramp to connect external air/power as well as fix
and annomallies that may have plauged your flight ( or a do what I did and wait until you're airborn to try all the switches) My personal
favorite was dropping the RAT and the pax oxygen...that was good for a scare I'm sure. Also, if you start to move the plane on the ground
with the L1 door open...you get an alert message on the overghead panel and the flight attendant sounds frazzled when she
says "Captain! the door is still OPEN!!"

LOL.....good times Joel, enjoy it.

Steve

[psolk]

no no, Dan and PMDG are the men, I am a mere peasant LOL

Flyboy, the lights are all on the overhead panel. You can see them in the VC or on the top of the 2d panel
I think there are 12 individual switches and they shoudl be the sane on the 2d and 3d panels...

If you are looking at the overhead, the landing lights are the three large switches in the middle of the o/h. Above them are four more switches, from
left to right are the nav lights, beacon lights, strobe lights and wing lights
Just to the right of the wing lights is another button. That is the logo lights.
On the left hand side of the o/h are your cockpit/taxi lights. The button to the left of the nav or position lights is the overhead lights (dome)
there are two knobs next to the dome lights and one of those controls the lights on the glareshield. on the same left hand side light panel there are
three smaller lightswitches as well. Those are the taxi lights and the runway turnoff lights, all independently controlled
Tough to describe without a picture

So you have 6 switches, 3 landing/ 1 taxi/ 2 turnoff
You have 6 buttons from left to right dome, position, beacon, strobe, wing and logo
You have one knob, glareshield....
That is lights 101...

Damn, steve beat me too it...

Yay I got my lights on LOL Now if I can get the boarding ramp to the plane LOL I have to have com set to 127.67 and nav2 to 108.0 which I thought I
did but I must be missing a step somewhere

[psolk]

Sounds like you are using Simflyers, open up the pedestal panel, shft +6 and click the button that says VOR R when you have 127.67 in com1 and 108.0
on the rad/nav page of the FMC

[FlyBoy2]

Ok I have 127.67 in both boxes on the right side of the Throtles that say VHF

[FlyBoy2]

I am having my FMC Telling me the my key funtion is inoper How do I get it to work?

[FlyBoy2]

Hooray I finally got the jet bridge in Place Praise the Load my Passengers can finally board
