Pull the start select switch for engine #4.Press the continuous ignition switch on the overhead panel.Now open the Boeing 747-400 > Select MP-pilot dialog and click the prefered PF's callsign. Pilot monitoring: launch the 747-400-fo (First Officier) and position yourself somewhere close to the PF's positions.Pilot flying: launch the 747-400 as usual.All switches and controls must be operated by the pilot flying. Finally, you can also disable the separate tiller control and revert to the unrealistic behaviour of using pedals only to completely control the nose wheel (see 747-400 > Tiller Steering dialog).Ĭurrently the pilot monitoring really cannot do anything else than monitoring.You can also connect a separate joystick axis to the tiller control - just like in the real aircraft, where there is a separate control wheel.Use the tiller (747-400 > Tiller Steering) dialog to steer during taxiing. Important notice: as of FlightGear 2.6.0, the 744 has tiller steering, just like the real aircraft where the pedals only turn the nose wheel by a few degrees - to achieve optimal precision during takeoffs and landings. Useful when you'd like to keep an eye on the EICAS during startup! You can close the panel via Shift-P. Clicking the hydraulics or electric overhead panels will open up a 2D variant. Several panels are also available as 2D overlay panels. Some buttons/switches have a cover on them, clicking it will either open or close it, so the button/switch can be pushed/turned. Switches can be turned clockwise with the left mouse button and counter clockwise using the middle mouse button. Most buttons exist of a toggle, where clicking it toggles it either on or off. See Boeing 747-400 Tutorial for the main article about this subject.Īll buttons/switches in the cockpit can be controlled using the mouse.
