  1. Hawk the destroyer so to speak.

    Bog the Dounty Fanta.

    The training is important, my local college says so, they all do.

    The Jaguar as a trainer caching £.

  2. It's a balancing act, and buying stuff for the misses to ensure flight time... as an example, today she got a bread machine, tonight I fly :)

     

    Be a man and get your rms a small RC jet engine.

    It can do hair drying, nail clipping, hot sauna, sound of private jet holiday, food cooking and slicing, smoke ventilation, blow the sick leaves in the autumn.

  3. not sure I understand your question...are you asking what function each position of the nav switch performs?

     

    I sought about the IRS knob positions in PMDG manual at some point during the flight, that was when I decided to switch the IRS knobs from NAV to OFF.

    Well in this case I’m trying maintain the experience as a hobby and learn a little at a time, I’ve even got a file of an airline manuals but the extent of it is outside of my scope.

    The reading, practice and tutorials helped me understand the process of getting from A to B and the FMC functions to some degree.

    My understanding of the system is limited yet I click on switches and buttons, fly sids and stars, holds,..

    In this example I’m interested in the sequences of clicks that a pilot would do in the two different circumstances:

    1. IRS failure

    2. IRS switches are found in OFF position (they are not caped).

     

    Thanks for your enthusiastic interest, just kidding, no I’m not.

    Ta.

  4. Just because there is not a 'Tinfoil Hat' section doesn't make this right! ;)

     

    You are leaking your thoughts in this thread, and you can’t do that, you are better of with bzzzzzzzzzz.

     

    Mimimimi, you're leaking...

     

    And your mimimi, has nothing to do with UFO, it’s AIM-120 on its final glance.

    You can assume that SU-27 radar dish is stupider >0

  5. I use FSX exclusively for PMDG 737 NGX. I discovered it while getting my real type rating in a Boeing 737-800. The flight model and systems detail is so real to life that I use it all the time to keep myself current in FMS, MCP, checklist flows, and RNP approaches.

     

     

    Would you share your understanding of the IRS system?

    At some point during my PMDG 737 NGX flight I was a bit curious to see the effects of switching the IRS knobs from NAV to OFF in flight, (why not?),.. OK I understand the effects of ripping all the NAV data from the displays but then I have no idea how to reinstate the NAV system, with all the GPS wires and stuff to continue on with the flight.

    Actually I had that idea based on watching one of those Air crash Investigation programs.

     

    What would you do, any idea?
