/images/notams/notams15/vfly1015.jpgChanges in version 2.6 include: New FeaturesVR Ready - all cockpit manipulators have been optimized forvirtual reality in accordance with the Laminar Research Guidance forAuthors, and tested with X-Plane 11.20vr6Now includes the ShadeTree Micro Aviation AutoUpdate© plugin -your copy will be automatically updated (when needed) every time youload the CirrusNew "Startup Cold, Dark and Healthy" option available from theOptions pop-up menu. If you select this option, the switches,settings, etc. will be reset to a "cold and dark" state, and anyfailures will be resetNew menu control system - you can now reposition and resize yourmenus, and their positions and sizes are saved when you exit. Positionthe small control icon anywhere on the screen.Persistent "save states" - (91) different preferences, options,switch settings, and weights are saved when you unload the Cirrus, andare restored when you fly the next timeAutopilot now disengages when Minimums are reached - according theCirrus POH, the autopilot will not engage or will disengage eitherbelow 200' AGL or when your Decision Height Minimum is reachedAutopilot LVL function now turns on the autopilot servos and setsroll and pitch to zero (in accordance with the SR20 POH)New NORMAL textures for interior objects - to take advantage ofX-Plane PBR rendering systemThe altitude number on the altimeter is now shown in steps of 10'(e.g. 1100, 1110, 1120, etc.) instead of one-foot increments (1101,1102, etc.)New LEDs appear near the HSI on the PFD to show Course and Headingchanges when CRS or HDG knobs are being adjustedLanding lights are now much brighter /images/notams/notams18/vfly0404.jpgBug FixesFixed a problem where the ADF and NAV audio volumes wereflip/floppingNow using the correct dataref for the analog gauge slipindicatorNow using the correct dataref for the turn rate indicatorsFixed a problem where the engine idle could go much too low andthe engine would dieFixed misaligned glideslope indicator on PFDImproved the situation where the %Power needle on the MFD wouldjump wildly when mixture is reduced to near engine-quit stateSmall improvements to FMOD soundsFixed some UV-map problems with some meshes on the interiorAutopilot now uses standard X-Plane commands instead of customcommandsAdded missing HDR lights for interior dome lights /images/notams/notams17/vfly0815.pngvFlyhteAir Cirrus SR20The vFlyteAir model of the Cirrus SR20 is equipped with avionicssystems which resemble the look and feel of the real aircraft's"Perspective" system. "Perspective" is based on the Garmin G1000.According to Mario Donick, who created the glass panel system for theSR20, "Although we don't strive for a true simulation of theavionics, we took care for many details. Many features of the realPerspective G1000 system are modeled in the vFlyteAir version, butsome are omitted or not implemented. Here is a list of the features we think you will find very functional: The following features are available on the Primary Flight Display (PFD): Artificial Horizon with high-resolution attitude indicator, flight director and roll scaleSpeedtape with custom display of reference speedsAltitude tape with custom vertical velocity indicator and minimums displayEnhanced HSI with turn indicator and three fully configurable bearing pointers for GPS, NAV1, NAV2 and ADFSwitchable inset windows for timer/references, minimums, wind, ADF, map, nearest airports, and flight planCirrus-style top bar with power setting, frequencies and detailed GPS & autopilot informationOn the Multi Function Display (MFD), the following features areavailable: Engine information system with switchable trim statusDetailed system page with engine parameters, declutter mode, used fuel, remaining fuel, remaining range, remaining time, anti-ice & oxygen gauges, density altitude, temperatures, ISA deviationCustom user interface for creating and editing flight plans (accessing X-Planes navdata and default FMC)"Nearest" page for airports, navaids and related frequenciesCirrus-style top bar with destination window, frequencies and GPS informationX-Plane default map with weather radar and traffic warnings with custom iconsInteractive checklists and user-definable charts /images/notams/notams18/vfly0405.jpgIn addition to PFD and MFD specific features, the followingsystem-wide specifics are worth mentioning: X-Plane autopilot with ROL, HDG, NAV, APPR, ALT, V/S, IAS modes and detailed status informationAutopilot will automatically disengage below minimum conditions as stated in the Pilot Operating Handbook (underspeed, overspeed and altitude)Custom calculations for ground speed, true airspeed, fuel & ranges, bearings and distancesReversionary mode with engine information system and system summary (reacts on fuse & MFD failure) Purchase vFlyteAir - Cirrus SR20 for X-Plane
