OK, here we have a CAT IIIA landing. Dual channel autopilot. Well the weather is offcourse not CAT IIIA ;-) It is filmed while using track IR. Video is raw un-edited except for compression. So quality is reduced quite a bit. Also turned out a bit brighter than the original - but you get the idea. Pretty smooth..

Hi everyone,
just a couple comments to this vid I took:
Obviously a lot of things 3D-wise are still missing. While I wish one could view the runway from underneath the glareshield in the real plane, it is actually some geometry missing there :-)
Also you might notice the thrust levers jumping forward at the very end. This happens because the autothrottle reverts to "OFF" 2 seconds after touchdown and my joystick wasn´t at idle. This is an old hardware-interface-problem, we will see how it can be resolved.
The colors on the EHSI look very strange, as if they do not coincide with the colors that I saw on the pictures of 737 classic EHSI?
Yes, beki, the EHSI is a complete placeholder, still.
All the colours and symbology on the EHSI will change for the final version.
Progress is looking great! I love how the aircraft shakes after touchdown, so realistic!
Writing a hardware interface is fuuuuuunnnnnnnn. ¬_¬
(I have maybe spent a fruitless evening trying to get simple toggle switches to interface with X-Plane nicely.)
Great video! On the subject of hardware interfacing, if you took the dataref that animates the trim wheels and passed it through a smoothing function to a new dataref, and then animated the wheels from that new dataref, it would be a quick and dirty fix to the teleporting-trimwheel thing. Instead of teleporting between two points 45 degrees apart they'll be oscillating gently somewhere in the midpoint. (I assume the trimwheel's linked to a chattering joystick axis in this vid.)
(Does that count as 'looking too closely at the visuals'? Sorry...)
My first complex FS aircraft was the Dreamfleet 737-400 for MSFS2000. I loved that aircraft. Eagerly awaiting this one!
Cool , i m happy to know that , anyway i wish you everything best with this . :)
Hello,
Is it possible to convert this plane to an FSX plane that it will work in Fligh Simulator X?
@Tom:
Really?
Try PMDG 737NG.
This plane here is the equivalent for the X-Plane.
Please, next time you publish videos, it would be highly appriciated if they were at least 1080p (1920x1080 pixels). Anyway, looking good so far.
It's really looking incredible, this will be a great addition to X-Plane. I'm looking forward to it.
