  • Thank you @ niksan29, I know the pictures to the RNP yes, it was just missing a clear statement, what the Majestics Dash can or may, say their certification. In the Approach Phase, the Majestics only give an RNP of 0.50 for the Approach, so you alwa…
  • Was it better before, or have you only had the Dash for 2 weeks? Do you use a weather program and what was the weather / wind like? If that's it, you could play a bit with the Turbolence Factor, at least in the FSX.
  • To help you understand, you press the APU PWR switch, it obviously takes the self-test (all the switches there with their lights light up briefly in a cycle), but the APU fuel valve stays closed (white light) in the Fire Protection Control Panel? It…
  • The answer was probably more theoretical, because on a flight I had to realize that the pushbutton TCS (for me) is not simulated.
  • You´ve push and hold the Pushbutton for and during actions
  • Hello, with CAT 2, I have to revise well, goes without HGS. But I still believe in the Steep Approach because not all Dash 8 q400 are equipped for it. In particular you can see that in the missing EGPWS STEEP APPROACH MODE SWITCHLIGHT and partly in…
  • @niksan29 If you're a real Dash Pilot, you'd like to know what the Majestics Dash is about. You have 2 variants, with or without HGS If you write that your Dash is approved for RNP 1, that's sufficient in my view only for the Initial Approach, t…
  • I have a similar problem. I get on the INIT page indicated that my navigation database on 06.Dezember 2017 expires. So I would have installed AIRAC 1712. But I do not really, because the primary is the AIRAC 1706 and 1501 installed as a backup. Sinc…
  • That's nice and I hope I've at least clearly and understandably expressed what I mean exactly.
  • Hello, I do not fly with the Dash in the US, so I did not notice that on this plane so far, but I have tested it negative for me too. At various US airports with corresponding Transitions these are not displayed. So I wanted to change the AIRAC, cur…
  • I would like to set the ATC transponder on the ground with the start of the engines or the pushback to ON ALT, the TCAS but only with the line up. So I keep the LSK 4R for 2-3 seconds and the transponder is set to ON ALT. Unfortunately, the TCAS of …
  • Does this affect different airports or does it affect a particular airport?
  • At Boeing, there is something that is all connected with the conduct of the flight in the FCTM, but whether that is the case with the Dash. Obviously, there are many questions that arise with this outstanding implementation!
  • Thanks, I had done yes, Previously, I had deiced with AES & GSX, but that affects only visually. Without deicing the Dash starts but then, if you open the intake doors directly before the start. This probably eliminates the simulated ice and sn…
  • Cause was probably the de-icing with AES or GSX instead of DEICING request via the MCDU. Where the connection with the Intake doors, I still do not know. With the DEICING request, it has now also worked at -2 ° C in ENTC.
  • For the takeoff, this is to read in the Majestics documents. INDR REF SPEED Switch only on above 1000 ft AGL. Unfortunately I only derived the whole thing for the landing. Do you have your FCOM from a public source as a download? Unfortunately, o…
  • Incidentally, in the flight itself I can switch the TCAS between TA / RA, TA ONLY and STBY, just not on the ground.
  • This is a pity

  • In the range above 1000 feet AGL, the switch is used in the case of the ice detection message, and increases the REF speed for the stall protection system (SPS) by about 15 Kts, since the Dash with possibly iced wings rather goes into the stall. You…
  • You can use the Anti Ice System (Airframe Anti Ice and Propeller De Icing) until landing, if required. The INCREASE REF speed switch is set to Off below 1000 ft AGL. Here under icing condition the relevant Speeds are provided again with a surcharge …

  • Hi, what was obviously the problem here was the change of the ATC transponder from STBY to ON ALT, by pressing the LSK 4R for 3 seconds. If I do this, it jumps to ON ALT, the TCAS automatically jumps to TA ONLY at the same time. On the ground I wou…
