B1 - Few bugs and few questions

[S4nt0ss]

Hello, 

I've found a few bugs, specially regarding realistic liveries:

- The DY livery has a small white line under the tail registration, I believe is related to the decals file. 

- Same thing with the EL skins, where a few have a wrong font for the tail number.

- DME and TACAN on the PFD shows no range

- When arming the spoiler for landing, upon touchdown full brakes are applied, making very difficult to maintain control of the aircraft.

now the questions:

- Will a paintkit be available at some point?

- Would it be possible to model a dummy Sniper Pod pylon? Since mostly all Bones fly with such pod nowadays it would add for the immersion. Also for the TFR page on the MFD, it would add some sense to the imagery being displayed having such pod. (see image)

and finally, thanks for bringing to the sim such a legend aircraft!

Additionally, I've noticed the CDU doesn't seem to accept any Airway input.

Hi,

The reports have been shared with the team. However some points to note:

I am not able to reproduce this issue. It would depend on the VOR/TACAN whether or not it has a DME attached to it within the sim data. If it has it, it will show up. I tested at KTPA by tuning into PIE (VORTACAN w/ DME) vs MCF (TACAN without DME). I was able to receive DME from PIE, but not from MCF as expected. Also tested on LAL (VORTACAN w/ DME) and working as intended.

I did notice a bug with the channel identifier on TACAN always showing as "Y", and will report to team.

This one is a sim issue actually, as the CDU is using the default sim flight-planner (same as can be found in the A320neo v1). It doesn't take airways too well and you have to enter point-by-point instead. The planes that don't have this issue are using a custom flight-planner (like the A320neo v2 or any of the WorkingTitle enhanced avionics). But anyways reported to the team if they can do anything about it.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. I will give it another try for the DME/Tacan with different VORTACs. It's very well possible the one I was using had no DME.

As for the airways, since I have the GTN750 from PMS50 installed, I noticed airways would load into the CDU if loaded onto the GTN750. for now this is the best workaround I found.
