This is beta version for X-Plane 10 64 bit. "Beta" mean what some may work wrong. Please report about wrong thing, but only thing what changed in this beta - Flightplan part, MCDU work, ND work

Please not discuss things what are not in "whats new" list. Please post your opinion direct here. When you post some, please follow some rules like this http://jardesign.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=861

Of particular importance will be issues:
- Drawing (wrong, sure) SID/STARS on the Nav display (please attach a screenshot of true drawing from documents and wrong drawing from your ND, specify the SID/STAR, approach, runway, name of the airport, AIRAC cycle and provider)
- Displacement of characters on the MCDU screen (attach screenshots please)

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Good day.

If i reload aircraft, the custom sounds (Sound3D - Blue Sky Star Simulatios) are lost.

I don't have that problem. It's weird.

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Hello JarDesign,
I'm just testing the new beta - I'm currently entering my flight plan. One thing I noticed so far:
- The ND is immediatly available after power-up, without having to align ADIRS. In fact, I'm just checking my flight plan route via the ND and my ADIRS is still off.

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Hi JAR,

Does this re-writing of the flight plans fix the flyover/flyby functionality of the fixes?

Thanks,

Kris

It work like a330 now, fly-by instead of fly-over now. Why you ask, better - download and try.

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

I have downloaded the AIRAC 1512 there is the A320/ jardesign zip folder and the route is to navdata inside the A320 folder, not the xplane GNS 430.

Do I need to delete the nav data that is in the A320/navdata folder files and just leave the GNS430 default xplane files?

I am confused about that, because navigraph had created nav data exclusive for jar design planes

Thanks in advance

It was exclusive, but just like Flight Factor, JAR decided to use the GNS430 nav data, so you no longer need an exclusive download.

So do i and "TA Only", activated by default

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Thanks for the update, testing at the moment - first issue I noticed is that there is still just one line for entering an AIRWAY. It should be multiline to be able to enter a few airways on this page and insert them when finished.

13

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your work.
For the first flights with the 2.6 beta I noticed :
-ND available without the 7-10 min time for the complete alignement
-is it possible to have the green asterix for the constraints in red like in real planes
-no possibility to enter speed constraints...it is very important for the SID / STAR
-no possibility in the PERF menu to programm the climb page with selected speed (I generally insert the green dot speed)
-It would be great in the rad nav menu to perform a VOT test and to have the possibility to enter the 3 or 4 letter from the different VOR, ILS and so on...


Thanks for all

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Thanks for issues! Wait more after detail testing.


In fact FF use the same Airac format what JARDesign and this is the same X-Plane NavData Format. It is usually "Airbus X Extended 1.10". Now, if you use FF and JARDesign aircrafts, you can update just this ONE NavData folder.

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Hi all!

After a bit of testing... Several minutes and... ND and PFD turn off..  (As if register isn't succesfully) but succesfully registered. At this moment i'm taxi out.. of course I had fuel.. (4800 kg aprox. No hot start, cold start)

TCAS position TA - TA /RA shows always 'TA only' at ND.

I hadn't enough time to install BSS sounds.. tomorrow more!

Cheers from Spain.

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

for the first flight the new beta work fine!
but the engine temp. are 150 and 148 degrees
an the front is still to deep thereby the pfd lateral is under the horizon on ground

in next beta is a watch in the nd comming ?

18

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

My 2 cents.  No nav aids, airports or waypoints showing.  Completely messed up the text using AirFMC. Exactly the same problems with AirFMC as the 330.

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Flew EIDW to EGCC.  Noticed some discontinuities in the flight plan as you get with the A330 which I had to delete.  Then just continued past one of the waypoints without turning as defined in the plan.  Pushed and then pulled the HDG button and it turned back on course.  I've had this problem a few times in the realised version.

Also received a terrain warning when radio altimeter was showing just over 1000 feet.  100 announcement happened at 400 feet on radio altimeter.

Other things I've noticed that increased light isn't showing on the taxiway/runway when the landing lights are turned on.  The light above the CPT and FO side windows isn't working.

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Its working nicely so far , I will retake serious flights on this plane to investigate further

the 320 fms seems pretty more developed than the one the 330 uses , I was wondering why you dont copy it over since theyre basically the same plane? (just bigger faster)?

21

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

I make SBCT-SBSP and the first thing which I saw:
1-when I turn on the plane the N/D show aligned without aligh the ADIRS but after I adjust the ADIRS he turn unavailable until the normal aligh.
2-When I flew the plane stay a little bit out of the green line in N/D
3-And the same problem of Acei when he said "Then just continued past one of the waypoints without turning as defined in the plan.  Pushed and then pulled the HDG button and it turned back on course.  I've had this problem a few times in the realised version."

Thanks for all

Re: ver 2.6 beta 1 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Very smooth flight, LPPT-LPFR, but a couple of things to note.
1. T/C was announced by FO as T/D. When reached T/D, no heads up before hand
2. ILS Final, 2500agl,  speed suddenly decreased from 149kn to 129kn while in managed ap speed mode (149kn) then came back after hitting 129kn to 149kn. (Landing speed was calculated at 144, I added 5 for a strong crosswind)

All in all, a Lovely flight and more importantly, a big update.
Thanks
