SSI

For info the SSI / maltese / german/ swiss cross etc... Used to disappear after ground to air switch over... Then Emirates had a near hull loss as the crew used (wrong) training info during a takeoff out of
Jo berg some years ago... You can read about that somewhere else i guess.. After that incident AB modified it to disappear at NW extension ... You can verify this in the sim if youload the aircraft really aft in Cog and may note on a rough runway setting that it drops in and out as the aircraft goes light on the NW ...

i think all aircraft should be modded like this now but could be wrong..

Most of the remaining posts are pretty spot on regards limited use/ value to most parts of the operation.
