Cockpit model issue

[foliainfx]

Although iniBuilds keep denying this problem, it is 100% the case that the cockpit model is wrong. The correct pilot position in the iniBuilds varies from the real pilot position. The first image shows the seating position that is correct according to iniBuilds, the position however does not show the DU pb. The second image shows an Airbus safety first article (https://safetyfirst.airbus.com/are-you-properly-seated/ fig.1 Eye reference point principle) providing a guide on how to be seated properly during critical flight phases. The third image shows the pilot position seen through META glasses. On both the second and third image two things show: the DU pb are visible and the blind area (see Airbus safety article, fig.7) are the same, while in the ini A350 the blind area does not match the safety article. I have been told that iniBuilds' reference pilots have been flying their A350 in the same position as seen in the first image attached, if this is indeed the case in real life I expect iniBuilds to take reasonable action as an incorrect position during critical flight phases is a safety hazard to crew and passengers.

This has been legitimately criticized several times on the forum and on discord.

Fact is that the cockpit geometry of the A350 is completely off ( as on the A300 as well ) and that INI is resistant to advice.

They just don‘t get it or simply don‘t want to accept the criticism as it is obviously very complex and labor intensive to fix.

So this is a deficiency that will never be fixed. No good advertising for INI though…

I agree with what you've said. Still my primary focus is that their reference pilots agree with the incorrect model. If those pilots are flying the same spot irl they would in the sim, they are a safety hazard to flight crew and passengers. Their seating position would be too high throwing their flight path angle perception off and can cause issues operating the rudder aswell as instruments. I have attached an image which is according to Airbus a too high seating position. This gets really close to the false position (according to them and their pilots right) in the iniBuilds. I hope iniBuilds will take necessary measures as this is a hazard that should not be happening, especially under several pilots.

This is what it looks like in the ini if you base it off irl references

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback. There have been numerous reports regarding the cockpit geometry as well as the wing modelling. We understand that this is a highly requested community item and I do not recall ever dismissing it. I have, on each or at least most repots such as these mentioned that the feedback has been passed to the team. Wherever refinements can be made, it will be done. There is no timeline or confirmation of anything as of yet but that does not mean this feedback is falling/has fallen on deaf ears. To anyone that may want to report the same thing, I assure you we are aware of this feedback.

Also, the default camera position has been adjusted in the upcoming update. 

I will be locking this thread as it is only recycling what we already know but it is appreciated regardless.
Thank you
