Flight dynamics have been modified based on official Boeing technical specifications and hours of testing. Many updates and improvements. Original aircraft made by Project Opensky. Please see the Readme file.
Boeing 767-400ER Modification
This is a freeware Boeing 767-400ER that I obtained from Simviation. The original model was developed by Project Opensky. The VC was updated by Alejandro Rojas Lucena with additional panel updates by Phillipe Marion, Alexander Barthel, Ken Wiggington, and myself. The built-in FMC is from Garret Smith.
Aircraft engine sounds are not included. There are good freeware GE CF6-80 sounds on AVSIM.
The GPWS and Groundhandling gauges were made by Rob Barendregt. The Jelair Vspeeds gauge was made by Jacob Larsen.
I have made the following modifications:
1. Removed the built-in landing lights and other lights from the model and added lights in the cfg file using stock effects.
2. Modified the empty and max weight as well as the passenger and cargo loads. The loads are set up for app. 243 passengers plus luggage and other cargo.
3. Changed the moments of inertia for more realistic feel and handling.
4. Adjusted the reference datum position, station loads positions, engine positions, fuel tank positions, and contact points.
5. Corrected some airplane geometry values.
6. Set engine thrust to correct value for the GE CF6-80C2B8F, added additional fuel flow gain entries for a longer and more realistic engine start sequence, set engine inlet area to correct value, changed min throttle limit for more realistic reverser thrust, and adjusted engine fuel flow for accurate fuel consumption.
7. Modified the fuel tank values to reflect the fuel quantity for the 767-400ER. Enabled electric fuel pumps which can be turned on/off on the overhead panel.
8. Updated flap and slat values to reflect 767-400ER actual settings and adjusted scalars for realistic performance.
9. Adjusted some flight tuning scalar values for more realistic handling.
10. Changed toe brake scale for more realistic braking effect.
11. Adjusted some autopilot values.
12. Enabled electric hydraulic pump and enabled wing deicing.
13. Removed the wing folding, tailhook, and smokesystem sections. Added the contrail effect to the effects section.
14. Added some VC views and adjusted some view positions and zoom levels.
15. Added the GPWS, Groundhandling, and Jelair Vspeed gauges to the panel.
16. Removed windshield rain effect from Boeing interior model.
17. Moved the VC forward to its correct position and adjusted eyepoint view.
18. Adjusted the EGT max temp and scalar in the AIR file to display the CF6-80C engine EGT more accurately.
19. Adjusted the Total Drag and landing gear drag in the AIR file for more realistic climb and cruise behavior.
20. Corrected exits section in the cfg file.
21. Modified the EICAS gauge code to redline the EGT at the correct temperature and to redline engine N1 and N2 at the correct RPM, and corrected the N2 reading by a factor of +5%.
22. Modified the Annunciator Master gauge code to only activate the Icing warning if the temperature is below 5C *and* it is raining, snowing, or the plane is in clouds, and adjusted the EGT temperature level that triggers the master caution light.
23. Updated the panel: replaced the radio popup panel with the stock 737-400 gauge, replaced the VC overhead panel with the Ken Wiggington panel which has indicator lights and power readings, used a different 737 gauge for the radio stack as the original radio comms didn't work, replaced the Ken Wiggington Annunciator gauge with the one from Phillippe Marion with some modifications, replaced the TCAS gauge with a TCAS/Radar gauge which actually works, replaced the Phillippe Marion MFD, PFD, and EICAS with gauges by Alexander Barthel with some modifications by me, and fixed the leading edge flaps indicator so it now functions properly.
24. Fixed the EFIS MFD map Airport and VOR layer buttons where the VOR button displayed airports and vice-versa.
25. The left end button on the EFIS opens the TCAS/Radar gauge, the second button from the right opens the Heads-up Guidance System, and the right end button opens the Overhead panel.
26. Added a mouse click area near the top of the VC console FMC that opens the 2-D FMC panel when clicked. Also fixed multiple gauge code syntax errors.
27. Fixed some problems with and improved the Heads-Up Guidance Display.
28. Fixed a hydraulic indicator light problem on the VC Overhead panel.
29. Fixed the VC Autobrake switch so it now works.
30. Modified the Jelair Vspeeds gauge to provide more accurate speeds for the 767-400.
31. Added a custom Kneeboard checklist and reference page.
The modifications were made based on official aircraft specifications contained in Boeing documents. The aircraft was tested using P3Dv6, but should work fine in P3Dv4-6 and possibly even earlier versions and FSX.
