Is anyone using x-plane for IMC training?
... if so it would be good to hear how you've got it set-up. I've been playing around with it in the hope that it would do the same job that IFT-PRO used to do, but so far I've been disappointed.

I'm only an NPPL student but I use x-plane a lot (on Mac)... what's the disappointment/problem?

"only" a student! Instructors wouldn't have anything to do if students didn't exist; you are our raison d'etre.;)
I had hoped that x-plane could be set-up so that the instrument panel fills most of the screen, it could then be used as a simple trainer for instrument training. So far I haven't found a way to do this in such a way that it looks sensible. HFD |
Hi!
Which version are you using, and which plane are you interested in? When you click ARROW DOWN, you "look down" in planes with a "deep" panel. Is that good enough? If all else fails, you could make your own panel. IS it something like this "King Air" you are after? http://i889.photobucket.com/albums/a...ooking_out.jpg http://i889.photobucket.com/albums/a...oking_down.jpg |
hugh flung dung.
The only time I have ever seen a decent setup for PPL IMC training was when someone went to the bother of getting 2 screens up and running and did something with an old version of flight sim. Every other setup has been a multiple series of clicking on things to get to see certain instruments. |
