FSX Boeing 747-8i Virgin Galactic

FSX Boeing 747-8i Virgin Galactic textures with advanced VC by Alejandro Rojas Lucena and VC Textures Upgrade by Enrique Cornejo, founder of the Flightsim Workshop Project.

This gives the b747 a payware Virtual Cockpit look and now with green leather tapestry on the sides of the seats. It even has a pilot jacket hanged in the rear of the cockpit (besides the right jumpseat).

The panel.cfg and the aircraft.cfg have been assembled and edited by the Flightsim Workshop Team. Now you can pop up "My icons" window in the Virtual Cockpit to easily reach the following windows: GPS, avionics, map, ATC, Climb/Radio Altimeter/Spoiler switch, auto-break switch, throttle quadrant, clock, descentometer, kneeboard and overhead panel.  A new feature in My Icons Window  I added is a new Pitot Heat switch with ON and Off features, (B747-XML gauge  by Enrique Cornejo). In “cold weather”, the Pitot Heat switch works just like in real life, so if it’s turned off the air speed indicator will stop working, so make sure you turn the Pitot Heat switch on before taking off!

The autopilot ON switches have green lights which make them look more realistic. Center ATC identification in this aircraft is "Boeing 747".  We have also fixed the position of the strobe lights so when the aircraft is flying they are in the right place. The cockpit view from the pilot’s seat is now more comfortable because the distance between the cockpit and the seat is longer.

The aircraft has new engine views (from both wings) and new Virtual Cockpit interior views from the left, right and central jump seats.

The Virgin Galactic Spaceship texture is wonderful and it has a unique paintscheme by Enrique Cornejo which also includes details such as some stains caused by humidity in the fuselage and the wing flaps and other details just like a real aircraft.

Real smoke in the four engines, just select  “I” key,  more cabin views, realistic cockpit and engines sound & more realistic night VC lights and fuselage night textures, in the VC just select  “L”  key and reset the overhead dim light switch in the overhead panel.

The aileron parameters have also improved, so now the right and left turns are “smoother”.  This aircraft uses the Project Opensky FSX Boeing B747-800 Model OSX748V4_GENX(MDL), and includes the gauge window  “Posky Utility”  to view the main stairs, ground cargo servicing, etc. The engine sounds are edited like the real ones with cockpit ambient, so you can enjoy a pleasant flight. The Flight Management Computer (FMC) is fixed and looks like a payware instrument. The VC includes FMC, Primary Flight Display (PFD) and Multi-Function Display (MDF) displayed in the correct size. The virtual cockpit also has an Engine-Indicating and Crew-Alerting System also known as EICAS, Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS), working wipers, cabin lights, fire suppression, avionics switch, fuel crossfeed, and you can identify those intruments in the overhead panel because they are bordered with color lines. You can also find landing lights switches, taxi light switch, engine generators, APU generator, battery switch, starter switches, de-ice switch, general lights switches which are a great work of Alejandro. So now the whole cockpit and texture upgrade with all these improvements looks better than a payware version. The clock numbers are now in orange which makes them look better and easily recognizable.
