Looking for beta testers for x737 PFD (X-Plane)

#1 Post by Ralph »

I'm working on a PFD for the x737 from Benedikt Stratmann: http://www.eadt.eu
It's coming together now, but there's still loads of stuff to do.

Please only use with the x737 version 5, it won't work with other aircraft!
I try to make it look like a real 737 PFD as much as possible. So anything I can do to make it better: let me know
Please do not make changes yourself and then send an updated version to me, that confuses me :mrgreen:

Thanks!!

To do list for version 1.0.1
- Make thousands on altitude tape bigger than hundreds.
- Check autopilot again for functionality. (For example G/S)
- Ground indicator should show landing altitude from 400nm to destination (if possible).
- Flashing and color change of BARO and RADIO minimums indicators.
- Various flaps maneuvering speeds (according to manual)
- Expanded LNAV and VNAV indicator.
- More reliable AOA indicator. The AOA value from X-Plane does strange things... might have to discuss that one with the guys from X-Plane.
- Check for the colors of the STD setting annunciation. When should this be green and when should this be amber?
- Pitch limit indicator.

Done for version 1.0.1:
- Negative radio altitude on ground (more information http://www.flightdatacommunity.com/look ... ltimeters/)
- Show altitudes in meters.
- STD barometric setting.
- Make heading bug stop at the corners of the compass rose.
- Airspeed indicator displays true airspeed rather than indicated airspeed.
- CWS P and CWS R annunciation linked to CWS A and CWS B. No FD annunciation when in CMD A or B mode.
- Warning (white box) around ground speed when switching between knots and mach.
- Flight path vector.
- NAV information: identifier or frequency and OBS heading, DME distance if available. ILS annunciation when glideslope signal is available.

Download version 1.0.0 (Uploaded May 19 - 2016)
