1.6.0 change log
Extended Pack only:
-added 777-200ER variant with Pratt&Whitney PW4090 engine option. This variant comes as a different aircraft with lots of new liveries. The new aircraft variant has distinct characteristics of:
--wing without the raked wingtips
--performance and fuel consumption
--sound set
--EEC with EPR as primary control parameter
--EICAS differences for EPR-controlled engines
--FMC performance parameters
-fixed tutorial quick zoom functions for the 300ER model
-new standby instruments: the -200LR, -LRF and -300ER now have an ISFD as standby instrument, the -200ER has three classic standby instruments
-corrected reflection and windows on the -300ER model
 
All models (on X-Plane 10 64bit):
-new SASL version to fix several crash and DRM problems
-fixed right engine anti-ice
-brought back the flap speed placard
-corrected pushback truck logic
-corrected the compact fuel indicator and its display logic
-fixed fuel jettison logic
-several fixes for the flightcontrol page of the EICAS
-improved autobrake behavior
-added autobrake disarm on speedbrake retraction
-added pdf 2 png HD application, for those who have memory and want more resolution for the maps on the EFB
-fixed a possible crash in the pax/cargo loading menu
-fixed a bug where an invisible "blue freeze" screen could cause the mouse pointer to no work anymore
-fixed the plane refueling itself after reposition through the XP map view
-implemented fuel temperature indication
-fixed a bug in direct-to logic where two subsequent directs would delete a wrong waypoint
-fixed reading Fix-to-DME-distance legs from Navigraph navdata (again!)
-fixed enumeration of SID transitions, now all available transitions are selectable
-reworked autoflight behavior with direct-intercept function. Now the autopilot will revert to LNAV arm when the plane is laterally off a manually selected intercept by more than 2.5nm. Intercepting a manually selected course must now be flown in HDG mode until LNAV engages. This is exactly how the real plane works.
-improved depiction of manual intercept courses on the temporary flightplan
-added intercept-from functionality to the FMS. Now you can create intercepts into radials going from arbitrary waypoints.
-fixed a bug where several waypoint combinations in transitions would collapse into one waypoint
-fixed a bug that could cause the plane fly parallel to the route after an intercept
-added DEL key assignment for CDU popup
-changed auto-thrust vs thrust-limit logic. It is now possible to manually increase takeoff power over the preset target when in A/T is in HOLD mode
-changed EEC characteristic for N1/EPR and command arcs to work more realistically
-improved interaction of A/T and EEC
-improved finding of alternate airports
-fixed a bug that could cause the FMC to not accept new airway entries
-added the possibility to load flight plans in .flp format, which can be exported by flight planning tools like PFPX and also by online services like simbrief.com
-corrected FMC and autopilot behavior in the approach phase of non-precision approaches
-improved autoland capabilities. For all improvements to work, X-Plane 10.30 is required
-fixed a bug that caused performance info on primary route to be deleted when secondary route was entered
-fixed a bug in entering LAT/LON waypoints in full format
-fixed a bug in the display of ETA on T/C and T/D pseudowaypoints
-fixed a bug in VNAV where a lower speed for a speed restriction was activated too early
-fixed a bug in VNAV where too high a speed was selected after a crossing restriction
-improved holdings in cross wind situations
-fixed several bugs related to flightplan saving and loading. Particularly, approaches with procedure turns and holdings in lieu of procedure turns will now also work when loaded from a saved flightplan
-improved the calculation of turn radius in holdings. The predicted holding patterns will now match the real performance more closely
-fixed a bug that could cause indefinitely small holdings to be generated
-fixed LNAV ignoring the first waypoint of the flightplan if no departure runway was selected
-improved generating fix-to-DME-distance legs from Aerosoft navdata
-corrected autopilot bank limits in LNAV mode
-improved prediction of the turn radius in LNAV mode, generating much smoother interceptions to next leg
-fixed a bug in turn radius calculation that caused the aircraft to jiggle in procedure turns when flying very slow
-greatly improved interception of legs at high speeds, i.e. large course changes in the cruise portion of the flightplan will be much smoother
-added absolute altitude labels to TCAS display
-corrected TCAS symbol colors and shapes as per TCAS 7.1 specification
-added DMOD and ZTHR logic to displayed TCAS threats
-changed TCAS implementation to work on different datarefs for online traffic from xsquawkbox and X-IVAP
-improved FMC climb predictions especially for long climbs
-fixed a bug in the autopilot that could cause it to stay in LNAV arm but never engage it even close to the calculated route
-fixed a bug in the descend speed logic that would override descend speed transitions with higher restriction speeds from previous waypoints
-working EXEC light on the remote CDU
