Title: PSS aircrafts
Post by: EHM-1841 Janos on March 19, 2006, 03:23:24 am
Hi Everybody,

I saw another topic mentioning the landing lights question about PSS aircrafts.
My question is whether there is a chance to solve this problem somehow?
I'd like to fly ProPilot flights with the PSS A320, but I get the landing lights penalties and I don't want to inrease my score and average 'cause of this.

Maybe any tip, how to "override" PP? (apart of "use the iFDG aircraft instead :)

Thanks,
Janos

At the emoment using PSS Airbus planes will cause this penalty because the Airbus atomaticly swirches off the landinglights when gear is retracted amd not swiched on before they are lowered again. So You will get this penalty everytime yopu use the PSS Airbuses.
ANd please correct me if i'm wrong:-)

There is no way around this issue, the operation of the landing lights is programmed into the panel, and you cannot alter it.

Thanks Guys,

Although this fact made me sad. Now I gotta look for another plane to fly.  

BTW it would be useful to have some kind of option in future PP versions for this problem. As I don't  think that Phoenix will re-programme the panel for us, PP might adapt slightly ...

Cheers, Janos

Janos,

An alternative might be the PMDG models, wich i think are better as the PSS ones, even the new 777 by Phoenix isn't as beautifull as the 747 QotS from PMDG. The only PP problem with the 747 is the penalty for not switching on the rotating beacon, altough it's switched on, this is not the case for the 737-800, a fantastic plane as well.

Niels,

Thanks for the advice! I have the PMDG series of the 737NG series and I agree they are marvelous :] and I'll try them (maybe even with FS2Crew).

I started this topic only 'cause I prefer Airbuses over all other types. Now I'll have a look at Wilco's A320 PIC, if it flies better than a hammer and PP likes it better, it may be a solution.
If not ... I hated spinach but now I eat it. The same will happen with Boeing :]
