PM new releases/ landing

[Jackpilot]

I Installed the new builds.
Everything seems OK ...relief!!
But as I enjoy flying my approaches manual, I can't really comment on Stars Handling.

Two questions though...
Now , I do not get the "approaching minimums" and "minimums" warnings
Nor does the AP autodisconnects on touchdown.

Any idea of what I'm probably doing wrong?

To get the (altitude callouts and minimums) you need to install and run PMSOUNDS (free download)

As for te autopilot auto disconnect, I have never seen that happen so I can't comment.

Best regards,

Slap your co-pilot upside his head!

Sorry, I just had to.

[Jackpilot]

I have PM sound.
Those "bitchy Betty" ( not copilot..sorry) warnings came automatically...do not have them now.
Should be related to Decision altitude...I must miss something in the Gc.Cfg ??

[Trevor Hale]

They are only connected to the gc.cfg file under the decision height setting. Pmsounds is stand alone. The DH is where you (Minimums call out occurs) check to see in the .cfg file for the GC that next to the decision height, you have no value. This way it will look at what the DH flag is set to. If you have a value programmed into it, then it will give you the Minimums call out at the value you have programmed.

Hope that helps.

evry time there is an upgrade of the software something goes missing....so never fear...par for the course.
the autopilot has to disco on rollout when in dual channel auotland mode after landing, so if ya cant hear the ap disco wav file something is not right.

just wait for the next update.

... here is the same, all new builds and same problem!
callout "minimum" is missing ... but havent tested the RADIO DH just the BARO DH, it could be that on RADIO it works ... will try out next week.

I'm having trouble switching between baro and radio DH. Turning the EFIS knob doesnt seem to work consistently... anyone know what the issue with that is?

Apart from that the CDU seems to be working better, STAR and legs inputs more stable, no heading change when the EXEC light is up

Hi Simpilots,

where did you find new builds?
All builds I can find on the update page of PM is dating back to August. Same in the intermediate builds page.

Any hint appreciated.

Thanks and best rgds

Can you please confirm about which new releases you are talking. Except of the PMSystem 109 on 18 sep, there hasn't been any updates after 19/08/2007, which is indeed very long for PM.
