Re: red lines/markings

Ok. Thanks for your fast reply!

So is it problem to idle just above lower red line of the oil pressure gauge?

red lines/markings

Hey guys, maybe it's a stupid question but what exactly do the upper and lower red lines in the fuel pressure, oil pressure, oil temp, CHT and CAT gauges stand for? If I get that right the green arcs/markings are the normal operating range with load on engines and the red markings are the absolute l...

Re: Oxygen!

There's an oxygen gauge on the pressurization panel. Does it react when crew uses mask?

Re: AI traffic of the fifties for FSX?

Hey guys, tried out the calclassic vintage traffic and it works very well in FSX. But there's one thing I need a workaround. The traffic files that come with the calclassic vintage traffic use a lot of vintage airports that do not exist in FSX's standard scenery. If you don't want to install a lot o...

Re: FSX:SE VOR's range

Thanks!

I'm using Hervé's navaid updates. Otherwise it wouldn't be fun using FSX and skyvector.com in combination. 8)

FSX:SE VOR's range

Hey guys, FSX's VOR stations have very different ranges. Two question: 1. Are these ranges realistic compared to r/l? 2. I'm using the Connie exclusively and to only manual navigation with skyvector.com. I know e.g. FSTramp shows the ranges of the VORs. But is there any r/l source that shows the ran...

Re: Air conditioning

One more question concerning the generators: How much load can they take or produce? Is overloading simulated?

Thanks in advance,

Re: CHT selector and reading the engine temp gauges

Ok. I've done some testing and it seems to be quite clear that the four CHT probes per engine display static values relative to each other. The differences between the four CHT values are always the same under different static conditions (ramp, 2000rpm, temperatures settled). Furthermore it seems to...

Re: CHT selector and reading the engine temp gauges

I'm still confused with the CHT selector and the cylinder numbering. Furthermore shouldn't there be a difference on CHT whether one uses upper or lower cowl flaps? I don't know if that's modelled. Otherwise what is the reason for having variable controls of upper and lower cowl flaps in real life? I...
