Sharklet Hype

Imagine the future:

Oh yes, the EFB 

Hope it comes out soon

A321 & Sharklets=N.U.T

I'm correct in assuming the 319 isn't getting the sharklet treatment?

I better tell AAL, AVA and others to remove them if so as my immersion can't take it.

by the looks yes only the A320/321 are getting the SL treatment. however the A319 does get the dcdu and possibly the S8 treatment.

On another note if we get an EFB with the SL package what features should it have? i would like to have a performance calculator, charts access (fluid) and simbrief integration to get the flightplan visible. perhaps an website page.

Agree, A fslabs browser in EFB would be nice!! 

[David Gray 95]

The A319 is my favorite plane in the family.  So it's disappointing not to get sharklets, but I also understand it's the least popular one they make.  In real life too (Not incl the A318).  But I really hope they get the DCDU so I can use CPDLC.  Regarding the EFB.  Simbrief integration and navigraph charts.  Performance calculator would also be nice, but I'm happy with the one we have now (With exception of missing US/Canada intersection departure data).  On a totally separate note.  It would be nice if they included the rain windscreen effects as stock.  I wouldn't mind getting rid of tomatoshade. 

[Harry Westbury 100]

@David Gray You dont need tomatoshade to use the windshield rain effects, they are present in the default aircraft. Hope that helps

Noted and approved! Thx!

May I note that Lufthansa has more and more Neo's all around?
Where do I have to donate for more pressure on the Neo's, please?

Will the A320 Sharklets get PBR?

[Kristoffer Rivedal 31]

Why wouldn't they?

Probably the shakrlet extension but the A320 main model not
Who knows...

Hey. I’m confused then. Why do they call it tomatoshade tmr?  Also I feel like they don’t look the same without the ts vc profile.

tomatoshade setting in the options menu under visuals is for the enhanced rain through tomatoshade VC profile.

You just said that you wished they included it as stock, which they do. Whether you like the look of them is irrelevant, they are there whether you use TS or not.

[David Gray 95]

I mean I wish they included this feature to work without using similar tomatoshade. Like other Boeing p3d makers do

i mean I wish the enhanced rain effect could work without an external shader

It works without TS. It just doesn´t look as pretty ! 

[Harry Westbury 100]

Yes I see what you mean, but I personally think it looks fine without TS as that's what I'm used to

It looks fine without TS. But with TS its just wow

I am looking forward to fly this beauty

Hoping that the EFB will have navigraph charts built in.

Would be so great. 

The announcement that it would be released in the coming months is already quite promising. I hope, they can keep that. Can´t wait for it anymore.

Agreed I wanna stream shows and fly, it would be a IFE a revolution for ESP flight sims.

[Artur Araripe 1107]

...you can’t just open up Chrome in another window? 

I hope FSL is making a realistic EFB. A lot of the in-game EFBs I see now are haphazardly thrown together and very gimmicky.

[David Norfolk 1383]

Sexy sexy sharklets

[Marc Stanford 190]

Is it me or is the sharklet wings more flexy than the fences? I know the A321s with the wingtip fence wings are stiff but the sharklets have more wing flex like a 737NG.

When you have three monitor you don't need browser on EFB

Guys, I think that‘s something for the soon coming EFB Hype Thread ....

@Andrew Wilson Will the Sharklet variants have the option to remove the DDRMI? This is cause newer models dont have those installed?

[David Norfolk 1383]

Wonder how many testers have jacked the spoilers all the way up in decent

Anyone else noticed that the price of the Sharklets on the fastspring page has been dropped several times? Still above €34.000 tough
