It can't be done, I've been on to PSS support about it and there is no way around it. Just one of those strange anomolies of the aircraft. (All the PSS Airbuses do it)

EHM-1592 Niels:
Thanks Phil i could'nt find it either there but i thought i give it a try.  Maybe management can do something about it by not giving these penaltys when you fly these PSS busses, same problem as with the rotating beacon on the PMDG 744 i always get penalized for it, but tey're always on. Guess i've got to live with it ;D

Phil,

I remember (vaguely) seeing a series of posts in the PSS forum about aliasing the PSS panel to other aircraft and one of the issues that came up was that the PSS panel assigns the EICAS style to your aircraft according to the Title line in the aircraft cfg file - so I'd suggest checking the Title line of your PSS bus to see if it's similar to the original title for the A330...

I've only got the PSS A340 but the title has to follow the same pattern - eg from mine:- "Title=PSS A340-200 CFM House". Make sure you have the first part in the same order including the engine type (CFM/IAE) then put freetext (EHM) at the end of the line. That's what the panel is looking for to decide what engines and consequently what EICAS shows up. I think if you don't follow this pattern it defaults to the four engine EICAS...

Of course this is just from memory so I could be on the wrong track !!!

EHM-1592 Niels:
Dominic you've got a fantastic memory ;D

Dom,

You are a legend! That cured the problem straight away. Thanks very much.

For anybody else who is experiencing problems, the text to be included in your AIRCRAFT.CFG file is as follows:

[fltsim.xx]
title=PSS A330-300 RR EHM
ui_variation=PSS A330-300 RR EHM
sim=A333
ui_type=Class 6
sound=RR
model=RR333
texture=ehm
atc_airline=Euroharmony
panel=
checklists=
atc_id=AB333
atc_flight_number=100
atc_heavy=0
ui_manufacturer=Euroharmony
visual_damage=1
description=PSS A330/A340 Pro Series With R.E.A.L Features.  COPYRIGHT 2002 PHOENIX SIMULATION SOFTWARE

(the xx should be replaced with the next number available in your list of aircraft in the file)

Robert you may want to change the text in the included readme file with the livery download, just a thought.

Thanks again Dom!
