RUNWAY VIEW:

When loading the panel after some aircrafts or helicopters, you cannot see the runway. Add the following lines to the end of the panel.cfg file using a text editor, for exemple Notepad:

[Default View]
X=0
Y=0
SIZE_X=8192
SIZE_Y=2800

KNOWN ERRORS in x03 versions only:

In some cases information are not displayed in the MFD windows such as the "Approach name".

In the PFD, the "LOC" light remains white even when the ILS is detected.

Some users have complained the "autolanding" dosen't work correctly.

If you have these problems load and install the following patch. THIS IS ONLY FOR 747-8 X03 VERSION. Click here to download the patch.

This patch also includes now a new and very realistic PUSHBACK with sounds.

If you had previously downloaded this patch before October 27, 2008, please reload it to get the last corrections. We apologize for this problem.
