Re: CoPilot for FF767 Beta-tests

Hello JARDesign Team,

Two full gate to gate flights completed using Sandy in 767-300ER.

Issues (I) or my Observations (O) as below:

1) I - Upon start up Sandy says "Pack 1 and 2 Auto" - this is not required.
2) O - There is no "flight control check"procedure
3) I - I cannot get a response to "Checking Brakes" and the script stopped here. I could continue by saying "Abort"
4) I - When Sandy sets the Seat belt and no Smoking signs on he does them the wrong way round - he points to No Smoking but says "Seat Belt" and vice versa.
5) O - During the before take off checklist - Sandy refers to "Speed Brakes" - the speed brakes are not set for takeoff in the 767.
6) O - The Descent procedure is missing. The Lading Altitude, Recall, Autobrake, VREF and MINS should be set in this flow.
7) I - The Localizer Arm command does not work
8) O - Approach mode Arm command is missing.
9) O - Occasionally the scripts stop. They can be re-started by saying "Abort" but this isn't intuitive.

Otherwise this works great and is very immersive.

I'm continuing testing so will update this list if I find any other issues.

Kind regards, Chris

Hi Eugeny,

It would be nice when the copilot would handle the taxi lights (in a "taxi procedure").

Thanks!

Regards, Pieter

He can, but just after getting Capitan command only. But we think to add this "event" on taxi, to set ON lights if this was not happen before. Thanks!
