8. Distance Reporting On or Distance Reporting Off Auto Landing The Auto Landing system was originally designed for our Blind and Visually Impaired BVI pilots to help them land aircraft on runways equipped with ILS approach facilities A number of aircraft in the IYP hanger are so equipped Please refer to the column entitled AL in the Supported Aircraft section of our Web site for a list of the aircraft that have Auto Landing capabilities http www itsyourplane com html aircraft asp When using the auto landing system the IYP flight control computer will continue to accept deviations from the localizer and manipulate the rudder ailerons and airspeed to maintain the aircraft on the Localizer and Glide Slope For aircraft so equipped upon landing the spoilers will deploy automatically and the aircraft s auto brake system will apply the brakes Otherwise differential braking is applied by the IYP flight control computer Also if so equipped reverse thrust will be applied to quickly decelerate the aircraft and the anti skid system will modulate brake pressure to keep all wheels turning As the speed decreases the rudder will lose effectiveness and you will need to control the direction of the aircraft using the yoke once the auto pilot is disengaged NOTE In the Blind Pilots Mode the parking brakes are applied automatically and maintained till full stop Sound Effects Sound effects within the IYP system such

Robert Cezar 2009 Pacific Feelings Media All rights reserved Page 97 of 223 It s Your Plane IYP User Manual Version 5 1 As you approach the destination airport you need to decide well in advance who will be landing the aircraft There are only two ways to perform the landing You can land the airplane You can ask Michelle to perform the landing More on this subject matter below On Base As you approach the destination airport it is important that you understand when your aircraft is established on Base The term Base is defined as when the aircraft is approximately 90 degrees off of the assigned runway In this example we ve been assigned to ILS runway 29 Therefore since we are making a left downwind approach we will add 90 degrees to 290 and calculate a Base heading of approximately 020 degrees plus or minus 5 degrees Alternatively if we were making a right downwind approach we d be looking for a heading of 290 degrees less 90 degrees or approximately 200 degrees plus or minus 5 degrees when on Base Once on Base we re anxiously awaiting instructions from ATC to turn us to a bearing of approximately 30 degrees off of the destination runway because this is our queue to execute the Approach Checklist This is also the most hectic time in the cockpit Thank goodness we have Michelle Turning Towards Final Approach When ATC says for example Pacifica 723 you are 24 miles Northeast Turn left heading

Display the Overhead Panel etc Another perfect segue to the next topic Window Names in Non English Simulators Bring up the Planche radio Huh The two phrases Bring up the window name and Get rid of the window name that are used to open and close windows will cause problems for those of you who are not running an English version of the Flight Simulator except for GPS Why Because the It s Your Plane IYP system reads the PANEL CFG file of the selected aircraft for the window names For example in the English system when flying a Cessna C172 the window names are Main Panel Radio Stack GPS Annunciator Compass and Mini Panel 2009 Pacific Feelings Media All rights reserved Page 68 of 223 It s Your Plane IYP User Manual Version 5 1 In a French system using the same example the window names will be Tableau de bord principal Planche radio GPS Tableau de signalisation Compas Mini tableau de bord So if a person using a French system says Bring up the Annunciator it will FAIL If they say Bring up the Tableau de signalisation it MIGHT work probably not Therefore since Michelle speaks English those of you who possess non English systems may wish to change the Window Names in the PANEL CFG files of your favourite aircraft to use English names for the windows It won t adversely affect the flight simulator Here s an example In the PANEL CFG file change the following Window

Understanding the Limitations of Open Loop Designs There are a few switches and rotary knobs that have been designed as Open Loop objects with the LVLD panels What does Open Loop mean In simple terms it means that a few of the aircraft s functions CANNOT BE DETERMINED by an external programme like IYP This manifests itself by prohibiting an Add On designer from determining the disposition of the aircraft at any given time Because of this in some cases within the checklists your Co pilot will ask you to confirm that switches are set properly If the switch is incorrectly set you need to set it to the correct position then say Confirmed Affirmative Yes it is Yes they are etc In other cases the only way for the IYP application to be certain of an object s disposition is to set it to a commanded position and hold it in that position so that its setting can be subsequently read e g If you say Number 1 Fuel OFF the Fuel Cutoff valve will move to the OFF position If you attempt to physically move it to the ON position it will snap back to OFF because it is being held OFF by the IYP programme The only way to move the switch in this example is to say Number 1 Fuel On This takes some getting used to but before long you ll get the hang of it The FSConv Plug In by Nico Kaan The IYP application communicates via Pete Dowson s FSUIPC with Nico Kaan Plug In which in turn talks to the Level D SDK to control the
