Attendant/Ground Call System Recommendation... What do you think?

[SWAFO]

I don't play the music on the ground, so I've never heard the FA make her takeoff announcement. Actually, in the 737, the FA can remain
seated while making a cabin announcement. You're correct in stating that we'll only hear the FA if we're monitoring the Cabin speaker,
however when we talk directly to the FA it's normally over the Service Interphone. I'd like to see a few more FA interactions modeled, but
we'll see what the future brings.

I would appreciate it if this was a feature it would add more to the FsP experiance!

[SWAFO]

Glad you like the idea! Hopefully we'll get it soon!

While I know the the Check vessel state/ Before take-off state display from Delta Glider III would not be something that FSP would have, I
would like to see the GRD CALL button and you "check aircraft status" the ground crew could say "Uhh, Captain your door is
open"

What a nice response! It would certainly make yourself (both the red color for blushing AND bangning your head to the control panel) once
or twice if you forget the door :P Like it!

Like how soon do u think this feature will be up?

Great idea, Brad!! And thanks to Dan (again) for seeing what he can do... Keep the ideas coming, Brad, and congrats on your promotion..!

Dan has mentioned that this feature would require LOTS of additional coding, so I don't think we'll see it anytime soon.

I'm sorry if I missed this in such a long post, but what about captain announcements to the pax?

Instead of the FA announcing to the pax a late landing, turbulence, etc, I've always heard that come from the flight deck.

So, I guess I'm suggesting an option for flight deck announcements. I don't know what all to include, but maybe...

1. Arrival Info
2. Weather
3. Standard Tourist BS (Grand Canyon on left, etc) -> I know coding this would be unrealistic, but just giving ideas

I think the idea of SWAFO is a good one. However he is using examples of specific procedures. At the airline I used to work for we did not
use the 4 time ring. Three times was emergency call for us. So this is very airline specific. I think you should avoid implement features
which are airline specific...

I like the idea
being a coffeecholic (or whatever the right word for that) I'd like have some coffee (even virtual one).
and yet, none of my FA's showed up in the cockpit even with a glass of water

I second that Paul, what a great guy Dan is.....i rarely see this kinda communication and or responsiveness with other authors, i admire
the humility from someone who in my opinion has created The Best Add-on for FS9.
I love all of the above suggestions, especially that of a Turbulence call. I hope to see it as an update soon and maybe coupled with a few
more voice packs that cover maybe the Caribbean region?
Best to you All

HERE HERE!!!!! never have i heard such true words, and that would be a great addition not only to FsP but FS04 in general

From what I hear now, nearly every airline has adopted the 4 ring system.

I really like the idea of extra announcements.

Have you also thougt of other announcements, more important to the captain/cabin crew

Like:
"CABIN CREW-DOORS ON AUTOMATIC"
"CABIN CREW-DOORS ON MANUAL PLEASE"
"CROSSCHECK PLEASE"
"PURSER, REPORT TO COCKPIT"
(similar to the 4 rings)

A bit more ambience would be nice as well. Maybe a passenger, pushing the crew-call button above him. Sometimes people laughing or
somthing like it.
A welcome announcement by the captain, there are lot's extra options.

Further I also would like to let Dan know this is one of the best add-ons ever for MSFS. I really enjoy it, thanks for making it!!
