Feature List

Explore all features by clicking on the sections below. You can also watch our Cockpit Features Introduction video or download the User Manuals to see a detailed and comprehensive description of all features and systems.

Systems & Autopilot New

• All the main aircraft systems were developed based on the real aircraft and from the input of real E-Jet pilots.

• All autopilot modes are included, including LNAV and VNAV navigation based on the real aircraft.

• This is a fantastic opportunity for you to expand your knowledge of systems since they are quite different from Airbus or Boeing.

New in 1.1.0 FMS Speed & Steep Approach are now included as well

Please visit our FAQ to review which autopilot features are not currently implemented.

FMS New

The Flight Managements Systems (FMS) is the brain of the E-Jets that ties the avionics and autopilot together.

AUTHENTIC FMS

• Functions and feels very much like the FMS on the real plane.

• The Authentic FMS emulates version 27

• Includes all pages required for full flight planning. The list of these pages was specified by a real E-Jets instructor working for a US-based operator.

• Allows the user to fully program flight plans including SIDs, STARs, Airways or setting PERF data.

• Some pages may not be operational or are reserved for future development.

• Please refer to our Demo Flight page for in depth instructions on the FMS operation.

New in 1.1.0 ILS Autotune is now included as well

RNAV Approaches: In the real E-Jets, RNP approaches would be flown using the Glide Path (GP) autopilot vertical mode, however this mode has not yet been implemented. In the meantime, RNAV approaches can be flown by keeping VNAV engaged as the vertical mode all the way down to the minimums.

Not implemented yet: HOLDs and procedural turns are not yet implemented. We are hoping to add these features in a future update.

Avionics New

• Exact one-to-one high-resolution rendition of the PFD, MFD and EICAS screens, incorporating the exact colors and fonts.

• All Flight Annunciators are included with dedicated flashers upon engagement.

• The MFD includes a custom NAV Map, a Vertical Situation Display, and all the synoptic pages used for systems overview.

• Correct Startup Sequence with screens and instruments loading based on the loads on electrical buses.

• Two versions of avionics are available for the PFD (Load 25 & Load 27).

New Next-Gen Pop Up Screens allow you to open the screens on separate monitors

Warning: Please note that the CAS system (a section on the EICAS which displays messages related to the CAUT and MASTER warnings) is not fully implemented in this version.

You will get around 30 most commonly seen messages, however, not all of them will be coupled with the CAUT or MASTER warning, and there are still many less common messages missing.

We need to develop this system from scratch in order to fully implement it and this is a very time consuming task, so in the meantime we have a "lite" version of CAS that displays messages a pilot would normally see on a standard flight.

3D Visuals

• We worked for over 2000 hours to perfectly replicate the interior and exterior of the aircraft down to the smallest details. You will find details from pins that indicate how worn the brakes are, to the zip-ties holding cables in place under the glareshield.

• We used colors scans to match the real colors of the cockpit and avionics and 3D scans to verify the dimensions of the interior and exterior of the aircraft.

• In one of our Not-A-Newsletters, we explain why saying "we are using 4K textures" is completely irrelevant. So we will not say that, even though we are of course using them.
  
  Instead, we can tell you that we spent months developing procedural processes that allowed us to give you crisp and detailed textures all around you in the cockpit without increasing the load on your system. Good performance was always the cornerstone of the development.

• There is no point for us to describe something that you can see for free. So simply download the free preview model!

FLIGHT MODEL

• The flight model was developed by X-Aerodynamics, the industry leader for simulating precise aerodynamics.

• The flight characteristics and performance was tested and approved by real E-Jet pilots.

• The flight model was optimized for both X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12.

EFB

Our new custom Electronic Flight Bag (**EFB**) is a tablet that gives you access to:

• Door control & Ground Services

• Weight & Balance

• Takeoff Performance Calculations

• Landing Performance Calculations

• Checklists

• Avitab

Watch the video below to see all the features that are included in our EFB.

Auto-Updater

• We are utilizing the SkunkCrafts Auto Updater. The Auto Updater makes it very easy to detect and download new updates all directly through X-Plane. This way you don’t ever have to worry about missing an update again!

• Every time you load the plane, you’ll be notified if a new version is available and if yes, you’ll be able to get the update with just a few clicks directly through X-Plane.

• You can find simple instructions here

LIGHTING & ANIMATIONS

• All exterior & interior lights were implemented and fine tuned for both X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12. That includes all cockpit lights, cabin lights, sterile cockpit lights, galley lights, emergency lights and more.

• Countless animations all around the cockpit and cabin. Naturally we animated all the doors, cockpit seats, jump seat, or windows.

• We really went the extra mile, so you'll even see that the seatbelts in the cockpit or loose items in the cabin like the trolleys or curtains will be shaking during turbulence.

Sounds

• The next generation of our custom FMOD package brings complex and true-to-life sounds which elevate the audio experience to a new level of immersion.

• The custom sound package includes sounds that were recorded on the real jets.

• All switches, buttons, levers and controls produce unique sounds. Even similar switches do not produce the same sound, as is the case in real life.

• Extensive work has been done on the engine sounds, which are crucial for an immersive experience.

• Cabin announcements are included and can be disabled through the settings menu.

Below is a version of the trailer without any music, allowing you to hear what the E-Jets Family sounds like in X-Plane.

VR

• All cockpit manipulators have been fine tuned for a smooth VR experience and you will be able to access all parts of the cockpit, including the FMS and EFB.

Plugins

• We have our Custom Settings menu through which you can configure your preferences, like weight units, if you want wheel covers or not and much more.

• These settings will be saved in a configuration file and remembered between flights.

Additionally, the jets are comapatible with these popular plugins:

• Terrain Radar

• BetterPushback

• Avitab

• WebFMC
