Timm Rehberg 2322 Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 Once we get them basically into the FSL cockpit, next would be getting Lido charts with Navigraph pls! Why? Because they're just better than Jeppesen PS: CandyCrush is still Prio1 for the EFB imo ;D Link to post
Bartu Özkara 296 Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 Will be the EFB only available with the sharklet extension (even for the A319)? Looking forward to have that in the cockpit Link to post

Maybe its easier, to ask EW to change their livery in order to get it as day one livery. And yes i asked the same, some days ago. I don't know what, but anything from these planes is difficult to paint. Link to post
Marc Stanford 289 Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 Man I’m hoping it comes either next month or Xmas. we need the extra winter performance Link to post

Probably the yellow "sun" logo like the older Lufthansa livery but more white and a huge OCEAN at the front. Eurowings is a pain but our master-painters will get it done sooner or later! Maybe @Vasilis get it done once SL are finished Link to post
M_i_k_e_V_o_g 167 Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 So, other than the obvious changes in the external model and a couple of percent off in fuel consumption.... What does the sharklet version bring on top of what's already available now. That is, what do we know that FSlabs is going to add - systemwise? Link to post

Newer flight computers, new flight model (which isn't just "a few percent off fuel consumption" - it includes new aerodynamics and flight characteristics unique to the sharklet), updated fuel systems, satdom integration (with relevant aerodynamic and CG shift), EFB, full LED lighting system...

I would rather wait and have the plane released without bugs from BETA. Why is no one discussing the price tag or give prepositions... My guess is around 70€ Link to post

Bartu Özkara 296 Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 When we compare it to the A319 & A321 prices, in my opinion probably the extension will be based on a lower price. But of course we all know how much work and effort the team is showing into the extension. (Performance, LED Lights, EFB), I guess it could be between 25-35 Euros Looking forward to see more previews Link to post

Bartu Özkara 296 Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 I don't know exactly which features will be on the EFB but it could be nice to have a performance tool like this with runway details. Of course it's not easy to build something like that but at least having our charts there it will be amazing Link to post

Bartu Özkara 296 Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Yeah I saw those previews but thanks Stu. I guess because of the development process there wasn't any details about the features, therefore I shared this photo above maybe we can get new details from the development team 1 Link to post
