iFly 737NG for FSX is Out

[Harold Henderson]

Bought it. Installed the Alaska livery for the 739 and made one, all manual, circuit last night. "Felt" pretty good.

[Theodore Martin]

Purchased last night and installed. Have not had opportunity to do a flight yet. Will do that tonight.

This is something new for my type of "flying". Using the IFR panel totally, almost. The Ifly 737 has this mode in it and I open up a window to fiew up front, like a periscope on the "Spirit of ST. Louis".
This is sort of "fun".
I had to increase the Null zone on my Yoke to allow for not shutting off the autopilot's functions during flight. I used the CTRL-K Yesterday and forgot about it when I was landing and had no controls, by the time I realized it the crash occurred already. I walked away from it. This aicraft is getting better the more I fly it.

Yes Wayne, I was going to suggest the "null" change, I had to do it on the previous FS9 version.
I have made a change in my "panel.cfg" file. I fly in windows mode which leaves the task bar across the top, this goes over the "panel_selector", I also use "Shift Z Z", plus for those with failing eyesight this panel may be a little small, so here is my change:

[Window09]
background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=143,250
position=0
visible=1
ident=10190
zorder=20

gauge00=iFly737-900!Panel_Selector, 0,60,143,150

I haven't done a flight yet, maybe tonight to finish off my current FREQ. You see, the auto FREQ gave me 10 Alaska flights so I may have to do the same one again until an AA livery is available. There was a comment about the AA livery somewhere in their forum but of course I can't find it now. Something like AA would not be happy if they had their livery, so we will have to wait until someone does one.

Yes, Navigraph now have updates for IFly.

There is a lot of activity on their support forum, which I guess is expected with a new product.

if anyone points me in the paintkit direction, I may try to paint the AA bird

Sergio, looking at the forum and files I believe there is not a paint kit, yet.

This F1 site http://library.flight1.net/?category=1 has files that I have not seen before. According to what I read on the forum, the AA livery was not made due to copywright, proprietary laws or some such, but there are individuals who do make them. Like us and you. According to this forum site, link above, the gentleman who made the repaints for the IFly 737NG FS9 AAL livery, is supposedly doing the FSX repaints and they will be upload to this site as they come available. As of now they only have one addon, in this site for Transvania airlines for the 737ngFSX.

Now that is all hearsay or read-say on the forum.

Hi Sergio,
Paint kit is available here: http://ifly.flight1.net/forums/forum_po ... ad-details

There are a couple of ones for the FS9 version which may help here: http://library.flight1.net/?s=American

Hi Sergio,
I would like a copy please, I will probably need the panel fixed though.

Thanks for the insight on how the real aircraft are built and painted.

Wayne are you sure you can operate an a/c that doesn't have steam gauges???? I know the old eyesight isn't what it used to be. You might have to adjust the CRT's to display a BIG FONT.
