#747 cockpit upgrade

Adding a detailed 3D VOR structure would add a lot of immersion to the place, a shame UK2000 chose to cut corners here. So the VOR was left as is, meaning a crude blurb of polygons due to photogrammetry, or all flat if you have turned photogrammetry off. It's not understandable how such a large structure can be omitted when it is an integral part of this small airport. I only wish the rather enormous VOR station right next to the airport would have been modelled as well. The airport also integrates very well into its surroundings.

You have open hangars, closed hangers, filled ones, empty ones, the airport feels busy and gives you plenty of places to park your GA aircraft surrounded by detailed modelling. Nice texturing with accurate colours all over the place, detail and 3D everywhere, a meaningful amount of airport-specifi-Д¬ static aircraft, this all adds nicely to the immersion factor. No work has been done to anything surrounding that hangar, no details added, it's default aerial imagery and low-res autogen trees only.ДЄ job very well done by UK2000. It's just a small hangar placed at the lakeside. Boeing 747-400 Standard Procedures Guide, An illustrated guide to getting started with the PMDG 747.747. When the autopilot is off, the F/D will give us visual cues as to climb pitch and bank angle to keep the aircraft flying safely. One thing negative though: The seaplane base, advertised as being part of the scenery, is not immersive at all. When the autopilot is on, the Flight Director is what controls where your plane goes. LyLogic proves that they can do very nice and detailed work if it's not a port from old P3D sceneries, like with some previous offerings. This version of Wangen Lachen airfield is clearly superior compared to a competing offer, and I would recommend this to anyone wanting to do VFR flying in Switzerland. Runway and apron markings are accurate, the buildings are textured nicely and crisp, and important infrastructure such as the landing-T or the VASI approach aid are authentic and functional.Д® harbour area is fairly detailed, making this a challenging approach due to the close location to the runway, and the latter being rather short. The first aircraft was delivered to Lufthansa in May 2012.A job well done for this small Swiss airfield. There are two versions of the aircraft, the 8F which is the cargo version with 16% more capacity than the -400 and the passenger version, the -8i or Intercontinental. The engines used are the General Electric GEnx-2B67. The fuselage is stretched by 5.6m and the wing by 4m with raked wingtips rather than the winglets on the -400. The aircraft uses the same engine and cockpit technology as the Boeing 787, hence

The Boeing 747-8 was launched in 2005 as an upgrade to the 747-400 with new engines, updated flightdeck and wings. The major external difference being the inclusion of 6 foot high winglets, the engines were also upgraded. The Boeing 747-400 was derived from the earlier 747-300 but was largely updated especially in the cockpit where the flight crew were reduced from 3 to 2 by the elimination of the needДЇor the Flight Engineer. A total of 168 -100s were built, and altogether over 1,568 aircraft have been ordered. The entry into service was on 21st January 1970 with PanAm on the New York to London route. The first prototype was flown on the 9th February 1969 but the flight test program was hindered by problems with the aircraftвЂ™s new technology high bypass engines and this delayed delivery by several months. In 1965 PanAm ordered 25 of the aircraft and the airliner project was formally launched.

The final design was much different than that initially envisioned for the airlifter which had a high mounted wing. The area of the fairing behind the cockpit was originally used to be used as a in-flight lounge, but in later versions this was used as an upper passenger cabin. The project led by Joe Sutter was a low priority as everyone thought that the future lay in supersonic transports, the aircraft was expected to be primarily used as a freighter, this led to the need for a hinging nose which led to the decision to place the cockpit in a bulge above the nose, a distinctive design feature of the 747. Lockheed won the competition with the C-5 Galaxy but BoeingвЂ™s proposal had caught the attention of Juan Trippe, the founder and president of PanAm with the requirement for an aircraft with twice the capacity of the Boeing 707.

In 1963 the United States Air Force started a competition for a very large strategic airlifter. The Boeing 747-100 was the original version of the iconic Boeing 747.
