Dear Pilots,
Please, put here your comments about the new EuroBusiness Fleet. If you discover some bugs, those will be replied here.
Thank you in advance.

hey Robert, the new livery looks great on the new fleet!! i'm happy to see an airbus in there too ;D
there's a small mistake in the Challenger's page, it lists Manufacturer: Fokker
-
Very nice! It's always great to have something new! ;D
-
Stunning!!!
-
Thanks guys, it took more time than we expected but I think it worth the wait ;)

We are aware of a common bug on some systems. The new panel of the CRJ200 aka Challenger 850 uses a special DLL, called GaugeSound.dll, it is not proved yet, but probably this unusual DLL cause the problem.
It should be run from the FS main folder. It is packed within the installer to the correct place. If you have problems with it, try to copy this gauge to your Windows/system32 folder too. Possibly it is a windows bug that we are facing with.
-
i don;t know whats causing this problem but everytime i try to load the challenger 850, my FS hangs there till it says that an error occured and would you like to restart FS.
i've tried loading up the plane at the start and also changing to it after loading the FS flight in another plane. anyone else have such problems?
-
That Triple seven is just amazing! And I'm very happy to see that we re-introduced in our fleet a Bombardier!

Hi,
I had the same problem with the C850 and did some tests today to locate it. I kept comparing our files with an (older, probably) original version of Hector Molina's panel, which worked almost well with the EHM aircraft.
I thought there is some (DLL?) version compatibility issue, and it still may be, but I eventually found out a shortcut that does the trick (for me, at least).
I noticed the problem is related to the virtual cockpit. That is, by installing the Eurobusiness kit THEN removing the virtual cockpit sections from PANEL.CFG I eliminated the problem along with it. As I almost never use 3D panel, for me it's problem solved. And it may help to find the real cause.
What bothers me is that at some point I got a configuration (of mixed files from the 2 kits) that worked with the EHM PANEL.CFG, but was unable to reproduce it later.
Hope this helps...

Thanks Andrei, so the buggy file is within the VC section. We will try to locate it...
-
Dear pilots,
before moving forward, we need some feedback from the users who struggling use of the C850 panel. Basically some answers needed, here or in E-mail:
- Windows version (XP SP2 works fine)
- FS version (9.1 patched works fine)
- FSUIPC version (registered works fine)
no more tips.
-
Hey mates, if you could load the C850 and you are sitting in a nice quiet grey cockpit with 3 black screens you did it ! There is a small button on the bottom of the panel that will turn them on, and you will see: broadcast ;D
-
Hi all, my problem is with the throttle quadrant on the Challenger ,when i start the engine all is ok, but has i increase the throttle with the throttle leaver on my joystick only the right one advances., have tried reloading plane but it is just the same, any help?? 2131-Bruce T.
-
Tried "E" + quickly "1" +quickly "2" ? That must synchronize the engines. Also an F1 or F4 command should do it usually if they were gone alone.

Hello All
Firstly congrats on the new Eurobusiness livery.All that purple in the old fleet made sure i never flew EBs before.
However!I tried out the new Airbus a310 Elite and although its a good looker i found it to be a bit performance heavy ie texture lag changing views etc(thats despite having changed all textures to dxt3)so i wonder how other pilots are finding it?On the other hand the EuroHarmony a320 is fine though ,no performance issues with that particular model.
cheers Andy
-
Hi Andy,
thank you for the kind words. Well, the new A318 uses not DXT-3 textures, but the non-compressed 32 bit format. It is not so unique, and your system should not have problems with it, also the texture folder is not too high either. I do not know a particular reason. Nowadays I have similar issues with some planes, but somehow my system slowed down a bit so I cannot point to any aircraft models about that.
-
Thanks Robert
I shouldn't really judge on one flight,and i will try another tonight and see how it goes.
PS i see we have a nice 777 now,unfortunately as with the Euroharmony 747s all the flights are massive long hauls.I wish there more medium range flights for these aircraft.
Cheers Andy
-
There are some ;) not so many though.

Andy, have a look at our 'maintenance' flights.
As you know we have an agreement with Lufthansa Technik to service our Birds in Frankfurt (EDDF). Have a look at the timetable. All hubs are connected to Frankfurt, if you're interested in short haul large class flights.
-
Hmm, the timetable only displays long Class 7 flights flying into EDDF
-
Rico, my man,
you need to do a bit refreshing to your timetable probably.
Anyway, if you search from within the site's timetable you'll find them.
They are:
EHM-9002 EGLL 06:30 EDDF 08:45 1234567 7 EuroHarmony
EHM-9005 LPPT 06:30 EDDF 08:30 1234567 7 EuroHarmony
EHM-9008 EHAM 06:30 EDDF 07:15 1234567 7 EuroHarmony
EHM-9011 LSZH 06:30 EDDF 07:00 1234567 7 EuroHarmony
EHM-9014 ESSA 06:30 EDDF 08:00 1234567 7 EuroHarmony
EHM-9017 LGAV 06:30 EDDF 08:45 1234567 7 EuroHarmony
Copied from the site's Timetable.
EHAM-EDDF is about 1hr maybe 1:20 max!
Same for LSZH-EDDF

don't we have maintenance for our division aircrafts? :P
i have only seen these flight for the "regular" aircrafts, but maybe i've missed something.. ;D
regards,
-
Sorry Daniel,
At this time, it is main division only. We may get round to adding more when time allows but it is a complex process and at the moment our flight Data Base needs attention in more pressing areas.....
Just as a bit of background, we had many discussions about the short flights for class 6 & 7 aircraft and there was a divided response with some people thinking we should remain realistic offering 777 & 747 flights etc only on long haul as they are in the real world but in the end a small concessions was made on the main division to help with this.... Now if you are not flying ProPilot there is a rule that allows you to fly with 4x compression whilst not online so you can still fly these planes albeit with time compression, for now this will serve as your only solution I'm afraid.
Regards,
Phil

Hi there,
I was wondering, the 777 most down is that the PSS one? Because i'm missing something...

Hello Phil
I appreciate that peoples time is limited and it probably takes a Lot of time to add and change flights etc,but i also fly for another VA which uses real world schedules for there aircraft and there are lots of real world flights for 747s 777s etc of mid range ie fifteen hundred miles and less.
As to using the 4x acceleration i am one of the strange fellows who has to do all flights in real time.(Even though it has on one occasion resulted in me falling asleep and pouring beer all over myself ;D).
Lets hope that in the future there will time to add some of these mid rangers.
All the best
Andy

Would it be possible to have this beauty for Eurobusiness fleet? It's only US$ 70 MM

Hi Niels, the new Version 4 download includes 2 different liveries, a standard livery and a Boeing worldliner livery. (In the variation drop down box you should see Boeing 777 VIP & Boeing 777 WorldLiner) There is no download for PSS as at the moment there is no support for PSS products.
Thanks.

Hi Andy, Can you point me in the direction of this real world airline as I have just spent about an hour on the OAG website and I cant find a regular scheduled route of less than 1500 nm from any of our hubs operated by a 744 or 777. (I actually couldn't find a route from anywhere of this length!)
Many thanks.
-
Hello Phil
The VA iam talking about is Airsource where there are lots of flights for 747,777s which are 1500 nm or less,but these may not be to and from the EU Hubs.
Cheers Andy

Hi Folks
in some cases real world airlines use these kind of planes for short flights in peak times on their busiest routes. Perhaps we can do so, too.
for example two years ago I flew with Lufthansa from Munich (EDDM) to Frankfurt (EDDF) in an Airbus A300-600. So they use an medium to long range plane for an GCD of only about 190 nm.
Kind regards
Manuel

I think the confusion was due to:

In reality the 747SP has only been seen in Japan and I have personally flow the A340 from Shannghai to Hong Kong but then there's 1.5 billion Chinese, isn't there?

Andy you need to be aware of that some of the RL schedules you find at that VA can be as old as 2005. I think that's around the time the automatic update of the database was canceled.

Hi all
Now I have a totally different question.
I want tu use an A320 panel on our new A318 Elite.
My problem ist, that the panel is showing the speed bugs automatically and only for the A320 -
for example an approach speed of 120 kts and if you go below that speed there is an security mechanism that speeds you up to about 130 - 140 kts.
As the typical approach speed for the A318 is 110 kts the landings are rather bumpy.
Can I somehow adust the speedbugs in my panel?
Kind regards
Manuel
-
Hi Manuel,
it is possible that the panel "have" control on your A/P settings, like an FMC would do. I think you cannot avoid this bug at that A320 panel.
-
Hi Robert
Thanks for having a look!
Perhaps I´ll try another one.
Kind regards
Manuel

The systems that raises you speed is prably the alpha-floor system, which detects a situation that would end in a stall. Therefor it corrects the speed to a safe setting.
If you can find where this systemis in the panel you can probly alter it.
