About FlightDeck Companion


With one exception, you should make all your settings in FDC prior to connecting to the flight
simulator. To perform changes to the settings, you will have to disconnect from flight simulator; an
operation that will reset all flight parameters used to detect the current phase of your flight (more on
flight phases below).
The exception to this rule is ControllerX, which requires you to be hooked up to the flight simulator
be able to detect the controller's buttons.
Note! You can also adjust the volumes in FDC while you are connected to Flight Simulator by clicking
the Volumes button in the main FDC window.

Flight Phases in FlightDeck Companion


The key to FDC's functionality is the division of your flight into various flight phases. The following
functionality is dependent on the flight phases:
l Checklists
l Cabin announcements
l ControllerX
l ATC chatter
l Airport ambience
FDC divides the flight into the phases listed below, and detects the flight phases automatically. The
different flight phases and the criteria for activating them are described in the table below.

Phase Criteria
At the Provided you start with your wheels on the ground this is the mode
Gate you'll begin with.
Taxi to The phase is activated once the Gate Departure announcement has
Runway been made. The announcement is usually made when you release the
parking brakes.
Takeoff The phase is activated in different ways. If you have the Prepare for
Takeoff call configured to play before or after the takeoff checklists,
the phase is activated when the Prepare for Takeoff call is made.
Otherwise, the program does its best to ascertain that you've finished
taxiing.
Climb The phase is activated the moment your wheels leave the ground.
Cruise The phase is activated as you pass 3000 ft.
Descent The phase is activated when you descend below a given triggering
height. If your highest altitude was less than 12000 ft, the triggering
height is 20% lower than your highest altitude. If you went to an
altitude higher than 12000ft, the triggering height is 10% lower than
your highest altitude.
To exemplify, if you went to an altitude of 10000 ft, the Descent phase
will be activated once you descend below 8000 ft, and if you went to
an altitude of 20000 ft, the phase is activated once you descend below
18000 ft.
Final The phase is activated as you descend below 3000 ft.
Landed The phase is activated as soon as your wheels touch the ground (which
seems like a reasonable criteria).
Taxi to The phase is activated once your ground speed drops below 30 knots.
Park
Parked The phase is activated when the parking brake is set at your
destination airport.

As you can see from the table above, the transition between phases is based either on events in Flight
Simulator, or in FDC. The flight phases allow FDC to provide you with checklists and cabin
announcements on ALL flights, not just adventures created in dedicated adventure creation software.

Missed approaches and Touch-and-go


Most pilots will at some point or another have experienced a missed approach. This can happen due to
wind conditions, visibility, and other technical reasons. You will also sometimes have to perform
missed approaches in Flight Simulator. FDC will in these cases automatically issue a Gear up call.
However, you must manually restart the Approach checklist, should you wish to repeat it. You do this
by hitting Ctrl-Shift-Space.
In case of a missed approach, the GPWS will be reset, and you will receive the GPWS calls again when
you start descending to attempt a new approach.
Note! When you perform a missed approach, the flight phases will not be changed. You will
still be in the Approach phase as you go around and attempt a new approach.
Pilots of smaller aircraft frequently perform Touch'N'Gos at various airports. When you perform a
Touch'N'Go, FDC will follow you, and automatically return to the Descent phase as you take off from
the runway again. The After Takeoff and Climb checks will be played over again, and as you descend
to make your approach to another airport, the Approach checklist will once again play automatically
(if you are using the Auto checklist mode).

Starting a new flight


After completing a flight at the destination airport, you can start a new flight by hitting Ctrl-
Shift-A.

Note! Disconnecting and reconnecting FDC from Flight Simulator will also reset all flight
parameters.

Multiple sounds simultaneously played


All the sounds in FDC can be played simultaneously. This means that ATC chatter, airport ambience,
checklist calls, cabin announcements and GPWS warnings can be heard at the same time! You are
allowed to control the mix of the various volumes freely by using the built-in volume control panel.
FDC's advanced sound capabilities adds to the visual realism of Flight Simulator, adding an extra level
of flight realism to your simulation!
Note! With Flight Simulator 2002, ATC capabilities were introduced in your virtual
experience. Since both FDC and FS2002 contains ATC chatter, you should choose the one you
like the best, as using both can cause the resulting ATC chatter to appear unrealistic.

FlightDeck Companion ControllerX


FlightDeck Companion ControllerX which lets you create different button assignments for each of
the flight phases in FDC connects to the joystick/yoke/game controller through the flight simulator.
You therefore have to be connected to the flight simulator in order to set up the assignments. FDC's
controller extension is far superior to the flight simulator's own button assignment capabilities, as FDC
allows you to assign different actions to the same button in different flight phases.
This means that if you have 5 buttons on your controller, you can assign one keystroke for each
button for each of the ten flight phases, allowing you to program a total of 50 keystrokes available
directly from your controller's buttons during your flight!
Note! You should make sure that the buttons you assign keystrokes to in FDC are left
unassigned in the flight simulator, otherwise you will get conflicting actions in the
simulator.

Frequently asked question


FlightDeck Companion is an advanced add-on to Flight Simulator, and until you get to know FDC's
capabilities, you may wonder whether the behaviour you experience in FDC is wanted or not. We have
collected a few commonly asked questions below, which can help you in quickly finding an answer to
your question. If your question is not answered here, please do not hesitate to post a question on our
support forum!
Why does FDC unexpectedly disconnect from Flight Simulator?
If FDC disconnects from Flight Simulator during your flight, changing the FSUIPC timeout option on the
Misc Items panel in FDC might help. These disconnections can sometimes occur when changing views
within Flight Simulator when using extremely graphic intensive aircraft and panels. There shouldn't
usually be any need to change this option, and unless you are experiencing problems, we recommend
leaving the value at the default setting of 5.

Why don't I get any ATC chatter?


FDC doesn't contain any ATC chatter files in the normal installation. You will have to install chatter
files to the folder structure of FDC yourself. It is also important to install files to the correct location
in FDC, as the file structure is essential for FDC to find ATC chatter files for the various geographical
areas and ATC chatter phases.

Why does the checklist stop playing after a negative checklist response?
If an interactive checklist call is not set correctly in Flight Simulator, FDC will wait for you to resume
the checklist again manually. You do this by hitting Ctrl-Spacebar or just Spacebar depending on
the checklist mode you are using. This pause allows you to find and correct the checklist item. You
can also define a delay between the checklist call and the response on the Select Aircraft panel. This
delay allows you to set the checklist item between the checklist call and the response is played,
thereby giving you a chance to avoid a negative response. If you frequently find yourself receiving
negative checklist responses, increasing this delay is probably a good idea.
If you are unable to correct a checklist call that is not set correct (your panel might prevent access to
the item, for example), you can hit Shift-Escape to escape the checklist call and proceed to the
next one. Although the response given will still be negative, FDC will ignore it and continue.

I just realize I flew half the flight without checklists! How come?
You should always remember that hitting Spacebar when using the automatic checklist modes will
pause the checklist. If you have (intentionally OR acciendentally) hit Spacebar during your flight,
you must manually resume the checklist by hitting Spacebar once again. When you resume the
checklist, it will continue where you halted it. As an example, if you paused the Approach checklist to
listen to the instructions from the Arrival Controller and you forgot to resume the checklist again
before landing, hitting Spacebar will resume the Approach checklist even though you are way past
that phase in your actual flight.

Why does FDC ignore the settings of interactive checklist calls in Flight Simulator
98?
Unfortunately, the interactive checklist functionality will not be available in FDC when used in
conjunction with Flight Simulator 98, due to limitations in Flight Simulator. You will still hear all
checklist calls and responses, but their settings will not be checked in Flight Simulator. To get the full
FDC functionality, you should consider upgrading your Flight Simulator to either 2000 or 2002.

Why do I sometimes get an error message when using Not Listed aircraft when
connecting to Flight Simulator?
This is usually issued because the flap settings specified in FDC don't match the available flap settings
for the aircraft selected in Flight Simulator. To fix this, check the aircraft's panel in Flight Simulator
and take note of how many flap settings it supports. If possible, also make a note of the exact flap
position corresponding to these settings. Then open the Select Aircraft panel in FDC, and make sure
that Not Listed is selected in the Select Aircraft drop-down box. In the flap section that appears
below the drop-down box, make sure to select the same number of flap settings that are supported by
the aircraft. If you have the exact flap positions, make sure to select them, as the pilots will call the
flap number. As long as the number of flap positions match, FDC should be able to connect to Flight
Simulator.

Is it really necessary to disconnect and connect FDC to Flight Simulator to start a


new flight?
No! While you're at the destination airport by hitting Ctrl-Shift-A. FDC will reset all flight
parameters to enable you to start a new flight right away.

Why doesn't sy sound files play correctly in FDC?


When you add your own sound files to FDC it is important that you copy the files to the correct folder.
It is also essential that the file names are correct. You may want to display file extensions for known
file types in Windows Explorer to ensure that files are named correctly. To achieve this, select Folder
Options on the Tools menu in Window Explorer, select the View tab, and turn off the Hide extensions
for known file types option. If a file name has double extensions (such as FD01.wav.wav), you will see
it immediately. If the files still doesn't play when you have ascertained that the file is named
correctly and located in the correct folder,

I just tried to send an e-mail from Black Box Log panel, but nothing happened.
What went wrong?
This automatic e-mail feature will work on most computers, as long as MAPI drivers are installed and
you are running up-to-date versions of Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express. However, we know that
this feature doesn't work for all e-mail clients in use, and if it fails on your computer, you will receive
an error message. We apologize for this, please send us your bug report using the manual guidelines
explained here.

Why don't I get multiple sounds playing at the same time on my computer?
Some computers seem to occassionally have trouble playing too many sounds at the same time. If,
say, a checklist is playing and at the same time a cabin announcement starts, the checklist may
appear to be paused. Increasing the amount of RAM on your computer will most probably solve this
problem.

Why doesn't all the interactive checklist calls work with my favourite aircraft and
panel?
FDC are designed to work with panels and aircraft that follow the design guidelines set forward by
Microsoft. However, many custom aircraft and panel designers doesn't follow these guidelines, they
may for example add custom behaviour to given key combinations. Sometimes FDC will not be able to
recognize these special designs and will be unable to verify an interactve checklist call. There are
three ways to avoid this problem. You can either change the set checklist reply for the checklist calls
that aren't checked properly, as this will disable the interactivity. Alternatively, you can hit Shift-
Escape to ignore the negative response and proceed with the next checklist call. You can also
disable the interactive calls by turning off the Master Interactive Checklist option available on the
Select Aircraft options panel.

I just finished a flight, but the flight time entry isn't correct! What happened?
If you accelerate (increase the simulation rate) the simulation in Flight Simulator the flight time
logged in FDC will not be correct. To get correct flight time logging, you should only use the normal
simulation rate!
When I use my favourite panel in Flight Simulator I don't see the messages from
FDC! How can I fix this?
Some panels will have bitmaps that cover the screen area where Flight Simulator will display on-
screen messages. Pete Dowson's excellent AdvDisplay utility is designed to solve this problem. It
enables you to display on-screen messages in window that you can customize yourself. You can resize
and move this window, as well as dock it and customize the colors and fonts used to display
messages. You will find a copy of this utility on the installation CD. Please refer to the utility's own
documentation for further information on how to install and use AdvDisplay.

I just installed a new version of Flight Simulator, and now I cannot get a
connection between the simulator and FDC anymore! What can I do?
FDC requires that Pete Dowson's FSUIPC module is installed in Flight Simulator to be able to connect
to the simulator. You should always use the latest version of FSUIPC, which you will find on Pete's
official Pete's web site is web page. If you are unable to locate a version of FSUIPC, the FDC
installation CD includes a version of FSUIPC. Please refer to the utility's own documentation for
further information on how to isntall and use FSUIPC.

The battery went flat while I was going through the Before Start -up checklist, and
now I cannot start my engines! How do I get power back?
The problem with the battery uncharging completly before the pilot has started the engines has
always been an issue with Flight Simulator. The FSUIPC module by Pete Dowson allows you to fix this
problem, however. By selecting the Provide power with flat battery option in FSUIPC, you will not
experience this problem again. To turn this option on, select FSUIPC... on the Modules menu in Flight
Simulator. Click the Technical tab in the dialog box, and select the Provide power with flat battery
option. Click OK to exit the dialog box. For further information about FSUIPC, please read the
accompanying documentation!

A new data row starting with '000' has suddenly appeared in my performance
file. Why is this?
All performance files require that there is one row of speed data starting with the weight set to '000'.
This will prevent errors should the aircraft's weight be lower than the weights covered by the entered
performance data. If no such row exists, FDC will duplicate the last data row, and set the weight to
'000'.

During my final approach, the captain called for a flap setting although the
altitude for this flap setting was not reached. Why did he do that?
The Performance Editor allows you to make flap calls in two ways. You can either base them on the
indicated air speed or on the altitude above the ground. However, by entering speed data for all flap
settings, the call will occur when the first criteria is met. As an example, let's say you enter a speed
of 90(KIAS) for F20 in the landing data section, and then specify that the F20 call should occur when
the aircraft passes 1000AGL. If your speed drops below 90KIAS before you pass 1000AGL, the F20 call
is made based on the speed. If, however, you maintain a speed higher than 90KIAS until the aircraft
drops below 1000AGL, the call is made based on the altitude. FDC features this functionality to
prevent your aircraft from flying at low speeds without extending the flaps.

FlightDeck Companion Quick Reference
The reference below summarizes the events available in the various flight phases of FDC. The way
they are started differ, based on the settings available (such as checklist modes, cabin announcement
triggers, etc.). Those events that can only be started manually independently of other settings, are
marked by an M. Events that are not timed but rather dependent on various conditions (such as
speed, altitude, etc.) are marked by a U. These events can occur at any time during the indicated
phase. Finally, the table assumes that all events available in FDC are enabled.
The actions you must perform in Flight Simulator are also included in the table. However, we have
only included the significant actions, and how you perform the rest is totally up to you. These aircraft
actions are marked as FS in the table. Note that there are many options available in FDC to allow you
to customize its behaviour to suit your flying style as closely as possible.
Events that can occur at any time during the entire flight are described in a separate table above the
main table below.

FlightDeck Companion QuickStart Flights
We have included six quick flights to get you started using FDC as quickly as possible. The first flight,
the Introductory Flight, is the same as that described in the QuickStart booklet that accompanies the
CD. The last five flights will allow you to become acquainted with the advanced features of FDC.
These are more advanced flights requiring additional navigational skills.
The Introductory flight contains all the information needed to perform the flight. You should be able
to follow the steps to finish the flight properly.
The last five QuickStart flights are structured a bit differently. They can be flown with the aircraft of
your choice. Obviously, your choice of aircraft will have a large impact on what the flight will look
like! We will therefore leave it up to you to decide on speeds and altitudes for your flight. We will
include suggested speeds and altitudes for a few different aircraft, to help you on your way.
While flights 2 through 6 have their own flight plan page, they share the same setup and flight
descriptions. These are actually "summaries" of the steps required to perform a FDC-powered flight. If
you wish, you can use them as your FDC reference sheet, should you find the FDC QuickReference to
be too brief.
Note! The flights are created using the default sceneries in Flight Simulator 98, 2000, and 2002. If you
have installed third -party sceneries in the geographic areas of these flights, some Navaids may have
different frequencies or not be present at all.

FlightDeck Companion Introductory Flight


Please join us on a flight introducing you to the advanced features of FlightDeck Companion. This
simple flight will take you for a trip around the EGGW London Luton Airport in England. We will take
off and land on Runway 26. We recommend that you use clear weather and no ATC for this
introductory flight. You will take off in the Cessna 182RG and fly an extended traffic pattern, with
which you are probably already familiar.
Before we start the flight, let us just explain a few abbreviations used in this document. Most
importantly, PF means Pilot Flying. This is the captain of the aircraft, and in this case its you! PNF
means Pilot Not Flying, which in this flight means the co-pilot (or First Officer). IAS means Indicated
Air Speed. AGL means Altitude above Ground Level, which is what the GPWS and a radio altimeter
will give you. MSL means Mean Sea Level, which is the altitude reading on the standard altimeter of
your aircraft. Finally, KIAS means Knots Indicated Air Speed. If you are already familiar with Flight
Simulator, you will know the rest of the abbreviations and expressions used.
Tip! This introductory flight is also available in the electronic FlightDeck Companion Users
Guide, which you will find by hitting F1 inside the program. The Users Guide includes a few
images to aid you in your flight.

Step 1: Starting FlightDeck Companion


The first thing you need to do is to start FDC. Once it is started, you will have to enter a few
parameters that are suitable for the Cessna 182RG. To make it easier to retrieve these settings later,
you will create a new profile for your Cessna settings.
1. Start FlightDeck Companion from the Start menu.
2. Click Options on the main screen.
3. Click Select Aircraft on the Main Options panel.
4. If you have already experimented with FDC, you should reset all parameters to their default
values for this flight description to be accurate. To achieve this, simply click Reset Defaults in
the panel.
5. Select Cessna 182RG under Select Aircraft for this flight.
6. Select Auto 1 in the Checklist section of the panel. This will automate the checklist execution,
and you will only have to resume the checklist if an item is set incorrectly.
7. The default values in FlightDeck Companion are better suited for larger aircraft than the Cessna
182RG. Enter the following values in the Select Aircraft panel:
i. Since the Cessna doesnt climb as quickly as larger airliners, we want to go through the
After Takeoff checks at a lower altitude than 3000AGL. Locate the After TO checks
passing box, and enter 600 rather than 3000. In the delay box immediately following this
box, enter 0. Thus, the setting should now read:
After TO checks passing 600 feet plus 0 secs.
ii. Similarly, we want the Climb checks to occur at 3000MSL rather than 6000MSL. Enter 3000
in the Climb checks start box. The entire setting should now read:
Climb checks start passing 3000 feet.
iii. We want Approach checks to occur at 2500AGL. Enter 2500 in the Approach checks begin
box. The entire setting should now read:
Approach checks begin at 2500 feet.

8. Click Close return to the main options screen, and click Yes to save your changes.
9. Click Flightdeck Calls.
10. Make sure that Virtual Co-Pilot Mode is enabled. This will make the co-pilot respond
automatically to flap and gear calls during the flight.
11. To save the new settings as a new profile, click Save Profile. Click Yes to save your changes. In
the Save Profile dialogue box, enter Cessna 182RG as the name for the profile and click Save.
12. Click Close twice to return to the main screen of FDC.

Tip! You can adjust the volume mix of the various sound components of FDC at any time by
clicking the Volumes button on the FDC main screen.

Note! Please dont click Connect yet; first you have to start flight simulator and select a
flight!

Step 2: Starting Flight Simulator and preparing the flight


Start Microsoft Flight Simulator (FDC supports Flight Simulator 98, 2000, and 2002). We have prepared
a startup position for you, named FDC Introductory Flight. Once Flight Simulator is up and running,
please select this flight. Click Fly Now to start the flight.
Note! You will be unable to connect FDC to Flight Simulator if you are on the introductory
screen in Flight Simulator. You have to be in the cockpit of your aircraft to be able to
establish a connection!
As mentioned above, you will be flying the Cessna 182RG on this flight. The aircraft is parked at the
Parking 12 Ramp GA Small starting position at EGGW London Luton Airport. The engine is shut down
and the Master Battery Switch turned off.
Note! Many users find that after the aircraft is parked for a short time with the engine(s)
shut down, the battery battery discharges completely. FDC utilizes the FSUIPC utility by
Pete Dowson to connect to Flight Simulator, this utility also provides an option to provide
power even if the battery is flat. After you have started Flight Simulator, please follow the
simple steps below to enable this option.

1. Select FSUIPC... on the Modules menu in Flight Simulator.


2. Click the Technical tab in the appearing dialogue box.
3. Select the Provide power with flat battery option. This will make sure you always have electric
power in your aircraft, even if the battery is flat.
4. Click OK to close the FSUIPC Options and Settings dialogue box.
The FDC installation CD contains FSUIPC and its full documentation. For further details, please refer
to FSUIPC documentation by Pete Dowson.
Step 3: Connecting FDC to Flight Simulator
Once your startup position is loaded, you can connect FDC to Flight Simulator.
1. Recall FDC by clicking it on the Task Bar or by hitting Alt -Tab on your keyboard.
2. Click Connect.
Once a connection is established between FDC and Flight Simulator, FDC will be minimized
automatically, and Flight Simulator will be brought to front. When you get back to Flight Simulator
the simulation may be paused. In this case, please hit P to start the simulation again before
continuing.
Tip! Make sure that Flight Simulator is at the front and is active before hitting P. The title
bar of Flight Simulator will indicate its status (the title bar will be active, not grayed out). If
Flight Simulator is not active, you need to manually activate it by clicking the Flight
Simulator entry in the taskbar or by clicking its title bar.

Step 4: At the gate


In the top left corner of your screen, you will now see a message from FDC stating that the software
is active. You can now start your flight by having your cabin crew welcome your passengers on board.
1. Hit Ctrl-Shift -A on your keyboard to play the Welcome Aboard announcement.
2. Once the reading of the announcement by the cabin crew is finished, it is the captains turn to
brief his crew. Start the cockpit crew briefing by hitting Ctrl-Space on your keyboard.
3. Immediately after the cockpit briefing is finished, the Pre-start checks will start automatically.
Please pay close attention to the calls and check that the corresponding items are set correctly.
If not, you have two seconds to make corrections before a negative response is given. If you have
received a negative response, correct the item and hit Ctrl-Space to resume the checklist.
4. You are now ready to go through the Before Start checks. Start this checklist by once again
hitting Ctrl-Space.
5. As soon as the checklist is finished, you are ready to start your engine. You can activate the
automatic Engine Startup Procedure in Flight Simulator by hitting Ctrl-E. To allow the engine to
start up correctly, first you should pump the throttle once, then set it to about 1/3 power. Now
you are ready to hit Ctrk-E.
Tip! For further details regarding the startup procedure required to start the Cessna 182RG,
please check the kneepad in Flight Simulator available by hitting F10.
6. Once the PNF has confirmed that the engine is stable, you can reduce the throttle to idle again.
7. The After Start checks will be (automatically) initiated 30 seconds after the engine startup.
8. Once the checklist is complete, please go through the steps below to set your autopilot for the
flight.
i. Set the Heading of your autopilot to 259 by adjusting the Heading Bug Adjust Knob at
the bottom right of your Heading Indicator.
ii. Set your autopilot Altitude to 7500, which is the cruising altitude we will use.
iii. Set your autopilot Vertical Speed to 500.
Step 5: Taxi to runway
In this step you will manoeuvre your plane from the parking position on the ramp to the holding
position short of Runway 26.

EGGW London Luton Airport. The aircraft is parked at position 1 (Parking 12 - Ramp Small GA).
Follow the yellow line to the end of Runway 26. If you use Flight Simulator 98 or 2000, please follow
the green line to the end of Runway 26. The green line also indicates the runway exit you when you
taxi to the parking position after landing.
Tip! You can open a new map view in Flight Simulator by hitting Shift -[ as an aid while
taxiing.

1. Release the hand brake by hitting . (period) on your keyboard.


2. The Gate Departure announcement is played as soon as the parking brake is released, warning
your cabin crew that the aircraft is about to roll.
3. Increase the thrust a little and taxi to the runway. To see where you are, hit Shift-[ to bring
up a map view. Watch out for other aircraft on the ground! Follow the instructions below to get
to the runway.
i. Turn 180 on the parking ramp, and taxi out of the parking ramp area.
ii. When you reach the taxiway, turn left, and continue straight ahead until you reach the
end of the taxiway. The taxiway runs parallel to the runway.
iii. Turn 90 right at the end of the taxiway, and come to a complete stop short of the
runway. Although the taxiway doesnt run all the way to the threshold of the runway, you
should be able to make a short runway takeoff in the Cessna. If you prefer, you can roll
onto the runway, turn left, and taxi to the runway threshold and make a 180 there to
prepare for takeoff.
Note! If you are using Flight Simulator 98 the extended taxiway wasnt built at the time
the simulator was released. You should therefore turn right at the first crossing, turn left
again on the runway, and taxi to the end of the runway. Make a 180 turn and come to a
complete stop.

4. As your aircraft starts to move, the PF will call for flaps to be set to Flaps 10, which is the normal
takeoff setting. The co-pilot will respond to this call automatically, since the Virtual Co-Pilot
mode in FDC is active.
5. A little while after you have started taxiing, the stewardess will read the Safety Briefing for your
passengers.
6. At about the same time the Taxi Checklist will be automatically played. Again, as above, correct
wrong items, and restart the checklist by hitting Ctrl-Space if necessary.
Note! The checklist might very well be played at the same time as the cabin announcement is
being played.
7. As you reach the holding position short of the runway, you should make your aircraft come to a
complete stop. After a short break, the Before Takeoff checks will commence.
If you taxi too fast, the PNF will warn you!
Step 6: Takeoff
Your aircraft is now ready for takeoff. Lets go!
Tip! You can open the GPS window if you want to know exactly where you are during your
flight. Use the arrow button at the top of the GPS window to zoom the map view. You can
open the GPS by clicking the satellite icon on the panel, or by selecting Instrument Panel...
on the Views menu in Flight Simulator, and then select GPS on the submenu. Once opened,
you can resize and reposition the GPS window wherever you want on the panel.

1. It is now time to warn your cabin crew of the impending takeoff. Hit Ctrl-W to make the Prepare
for Takeoff call.
2. Carefully increase the thrust to make your aircraft move again, and roll onto the runway. Align
with the centreline.
3. Apply full throttle to start your takeoff roll.
4. The PNF will make speed calls as your aircraft picks up speed. The Air Speed Active call will occur
at 40KIAS, V1 at 50KIAS, Vr (Rotate) at 60KIAS, and V2 at 70 KIAS. When the PNF calls Rotate, you
should gently apply backpressure on the stick or yoke to raise the nose approximately 7. This
will allow the aircraft to ease into the air, maintaining and slowly increasing flying speed.
5. As soon at your aircraft starts to climb, the PNF will confirm a positive climb rate. The PF will
call for Gear up. The PNF will respond to this call by raising the landing gear. When the landing
gear is fully retracted, you will receive the Three Green call from the PNF.
6. Shortly after takeoff at approximately 75KIAS, the PF will call for flaps up. The Virtual Co-pilot
Mode will make the PNF respond and automatically retract the flaps.
7. As you pass 300AGL you can engage the autopilot for heading and altitude if you wish.
8. As you pass 600AGL, the After Takeoff checks will be automatically initiated.

Step 7: Climbing
Your aircraft is now airborne, and you are climbing towards your cruising altitude of 7500MSL. You
will soon turn to a heading of 170 to enter the crosswind leg.
Tip! You should adjust the power and the vertical speed setting of the Autopilot to maintain
a climb speed of 90 110KIAS.

1. 4 minutes after takeoff, the cabin crew will make the Refreshments announcement.
2. A short while after the announcement is made; turn left 90 to heading 170 to enter the
crosswind leg. Fly on this heading for approximately 5 minutes. You should now be able to see
EGWN Halton AB ahead and slightly to the left.
3. When you pass 3000MSL, the Climb checklist will be automatically initiated. Again, you have two
seconds to correct an incorrect item. Resume the checklist by correcting the checklist item and
hitting Ctrl-Space if you receive a negative response.
4. When you pass 6000MSL, the Altimeter call is made. This indicates that you are passing the
transition altitude, and that the altimeter should be adjusted to the standard pressure of 29.92.
5. As you pass 6500MSL, the co-pilot will call One to go, indicating that you are 1000ft below the
altitude set in the autopilot.
6. When you pass 6600MSL, the GPWS will give an audible alert to indicate that you are approaching
the set altitude.
Tip! You can fine-tune this alert on the GPWS options panel in FDC.
7. About 5 minutes after you turned to 170, turn 90 left again to a heading of 80 . You are now on
the downwind leg of your pattern.
Step 8: Cruising
When you have reached your cruising altitude, the aircraft will level off. Reduce the power and
maintain a cruise speed of 130 to 140 KIAS.
You will pass two small airports on this leg. You will first pass EGTR Elstree and then EGLG
Panshanger. When you have EGSS London Stansted Airport on your left side (after approximately 10 -
12 minutes of cruising at 7500MSL), enter an altitude of 2000 on the autopilot or begin a manual
descent to 2000MSL. Use the default VSI (Vertical Speed) setting of 700fpm. Reduce power to
maintain 130KIAS. Turn left 90 to a heading of 350 entering a base leg to intercept the Rwy 26 ILS
at Luton Airport. You will now pass over EGSS Stansted.
Tip! As there is not much happening during this part of the flight, we strongly suggest that
you read through the next two steps, Step 9: Descending and Step 10: Final Approach, as
these contain a lot of events that may occur in quick succession.

Tip! When you get to know FDC well, you can utilize the User File and Flightdeck
Announcement messages available in FDC. These features allow you to record your own
messages to be played to your passengers. While the User Files are connected to other
events in the flight, the Flightdeck Announcements can be played randomly throughout your
flight. Read more about these features in the on-line help for FDC! There are a few sample
Flightdeck announcement sound files available on the FDC installation CD to get you started!

Step 9: Descending
You have started the descent and will soon be intercepting the Localizer and Glide Slope for Rwy 26
ILS DME at EGGW Luton Airport. Speed will gradually be reduced to 110KIAS for Localizer
interception.
Note! Some of the events below (particularly 5, 6, and 7) may occur in a slightly different
order, depending on how you have flown the flight so far.

1. When you pass 6000MSL, the Descent checks will be automatically played.
2. The cabin crew will make the Final Compliance announcement a short time after passing
6000MSL.
3. Tune the NAV1 radio to 109.15, the frequency for ILS DME 26 at EGGW. Note that there are no
marker beacons for this ILS approach. Set the OBS selector on the VOR indicator to 259 by
turning the OBS Adjustment Knob on the lower right of the VOR indicator.
Note! Be sure to tune NAV1 and not NAV2 for this frequency!
4. Reduce power when passing 4500MSL and reduce speed to 110KIAS.
Tip! We recommend that you open the GPS at this time, as it will make it easier for you to
intercept the ILS properly.
5. As the aircraft passes 2500AGL (approximately 3000 MSL), Approach checks will begin. As usual,
correct any wrong items and hit Ctrl-Space to resume the checklist.
6. After about 3 -4 minutes, turn left 70 to a heading of 280 for the Localizer interception, and
continue descent to 2000MSL.
7. Once the Localizer needle begins moving on the VOR indicator, the PNF will make the Localizer
Alive call. When the needle is about one dot to the right of centre, begin a turn to the ILS final
approach course of 259, adjusting the turn as necessary to centre the needle. When you are
aligned with the runway, the PNF will inform you by making the Localizer Captured call.
8. Once centred on the Localizer and reaching 2000MSL, reduce speed to 100KIAS. Once this speed is
reached, the PF will call for Flaps 10. The PNF will respond and lower the flaps.
9. Reduce speed to 90 KIAS and maintain 2000MSL for Glide Slope interception, which should occur
at 4.5 DME on the Localizer.
10. Once the Glide Slope needle on your VOR starts moving, the PNF will make the Glide Slope Alive
call. Maintain 2000MSL until the Glide Slope needle is centred. The PNF will confirm capture with
the Glide Slope Captured call. Turn off Autopilot (unless you are making an autopilot approach
with the APR button on the AP pushed) and begin descent.
11. Reduce power to maintain 90KIAS.

Step 10: Final approach


You are now on the final approach and are aligned with the localizer and glide slope. You will now
continue your descent and bring the Cessna down on the runway.
1. Make sure you follow the glide slope and the localizer, and make the necessary adjustments to
keep the needles centred.
2. When you are 2500ft above the ground the GPWS will start calling out your altitude above the
ground. These calls are made based on the actual height above the ground, and not the altitude
readout on the altimeter (which reads your altitude above sea level). The GPWS will make the
following calls during the approach: 2500, 1000, 500, 400, Approaching minimums, 300, 200, 100,
50, 40, 30, 20, and finally 10.
3. At 1000AGL (approx 1500MSL) the PF will call for Gear Down. The PNF will respond and lower the
gear.
4. At 800AGL, (approx. 1300MSL) the PF will call for Flaps 20, and the PNF will lower the flaps.
Speed should be reduced at this time to 80KIAS.
5. At 300 feet AGL (approx 800MSL), approaching minimums, the PF will call for Flaps 30 (or full
flaps). Reduce speed to 70-75KIAS in preparation for landing.
6. When you are above the runway, pull slightly back on the stick to raise the nose a little, and then
reduce power to idle. This will allow the aircraft to settle down gently on the runway without
breaking the nose wheel!
7. Slow down the aircraft by applying brakes (hit . on the keyboard).

Step 11: Taxi to gate


You have now landed the aircraft, and will taxi back to the parking position.
1. Slow your aircraft down, and take the first exit off the runway to the right. Use the map view or
the illustrations in the online help to find this. Start taxiing back to the parking position where
your flight started.
2. As your speed drops below 25kts (Ground Speed), the PF will call for Flaps up.
3. A short time after you landed, the After Landing checks will start automatically.
4. While you are taxiing towards the parking position, the Taxi to gate announcement will be made.
5. When you have reached your parking position, bring your aircraft to a complete stop, and apply
the parking brakes.
6. The Parking checks will commence automatically.
7. Shut down the engine.
Congratulations on finishing your first FDC-powered flight!

EGGW Luton Airport. Follow the yellow taxiway to the end of Runway 26. If you use Flight Simulator
98 or 2000, follow the green taxiway to the end of Runway 26 (as the yellow was not yet built).
There are two alternative routes for this flight. The first, marked Route 1, features an approach to
EGGP Liverpool Airport that will bring you directly over EGCC Manchester Airport. This route uses the
MCT Manchester VOR to align you for the ILS on Rwy 27 at EGGP. This is not a very realistic approach,
however. We have therefore provided you with a more realistic flight plan, marked Route 2. This
approach is much more challenging, as you will have to perform a "teardrop" turn to align yourself
with the runway and intercept the Localizer and Glide Slope. Both routes are identical until you cross
the TNT Trent VOR. Route 2 is only available in FS2002, as ADF radios in FS2000 and FS98 cannot be
tuned to frequencies containing decimals.
The flight plans are presented below. They contain only waypoints, with no altitudes or speeds. These
will vary according on the aircraft you select. We have included flight maps for each route (created in
FSNavigator). We have included an illustration to guide you on the teardrop turn (for Category A&B
aircraft only).

(ISO.DRONE1) to DRONE.
Flight Description
Note! The flight doesn't include information about airspeed during the flight, since this is
dependent on the aircraft you choose.
Depart KSAV, RWY27. Climb runway heading to 3,000MSL, then turn right to 075. Continue climb to
FL210. Intercept J55 north of Savannah VOR (SAV, 112.70). Turn left, track J55 (052 radial of SAV) to
Charleston VOR (113.5, CHS, inbound radial 236, course 056). NAV1 should be tuned to CHS when a
good signal is received by NAV2 and DME2, but not until established on J55 outbound from SAV.
Crossing CHS, use NAV1 to track outbound on J121 (044 radial, CHS) to JMACK intersection (CHS DME
85). Tune NAV2 to Kinston VOR (ISO, 109.60), wait for it to come alive. You should be receiving ISO by
the time you pass the DME 132 of CHS. At this point (unless ISO is received earlier), tune NAV1 to ISO,
track inbound on the 225 radial of ISO (heading 045).
Passing ISO, track outbound on the 034 radial of ISO to BROZE intersection (ISO, DME 38) and begin
descent to FL190. Tune NAV2 to Cofield VOR (114.60, CVI). Cross BROZE at FL190, then begin descent
to 11,000MSL. Tune NAV1 to CVI, track inbound to CVI on the 218 radial of CVI (course 038). Cross CVI
at 11,000MSL, track outbound on the CVI 055 radial to DRONE intersection (CVI DME 14). Tune NAV2 to
Norfolk VOR (ORF, 116.90) after crossing CVI. Cross DRONE at 11,000MSL, then begin descent to
2,500MSL, tracking inbound to ORD on the 233 radial (course 053).
An ILS/DME (LOC 109.10 I-ORF, approach heading 047) approach will be made to Rwy5, KORF. Runway
is 9000 feet long, 1000 feet threshold displacement, giving 8000 feet useable runway). Minimums: DH
226MSL, 200AGL, visibility 3/8 miles. ADF should be tuned to the ILS locator outer marker (LOM)
(INGLE, 329, OR) and NAV2 should be tuned to Norfolk VOR after crossing CVI.
Crossing DRONE, tune NAV1 to the Runway 5 ILS/DME at KORF. At this point you are approximately
31nm from the airfield. Maintain 2500MSL until localizer interception. When the I-ORF localizer comes
alive, the localizer should be deflected to the right and the ADF needle should show the LOM slightly
to the right. Turn right to 070, the intercept heading for the localizer. Upon intercepting the
Localizer, descend to 2,000MSL for Glide Slope interception.
You will land on Runway 5 on KORF Norfolk Intl. There are several exits along the runway. When you
have slowed your aircraft down, select the first exit to the left, and taxi to a suitable parking
position. One alternative taxiway is highlighted on the airport map below. This will bring you to Gate
25: Gate Medium.

Next: Setting up FlightDeck Companion and Flight Simulator


QuickStart Flights: Setting up FlightDeck Companion and Flight
Simulator
Now that you have selected a flight, it is time to setup FlightDeck Companion, launch Flight Simulator
with the correct startup flight, and finally establish a connection between them.

Setting up FlightDeck Companion


The settings you will use in FDC will obviously depend on the aircraft you have chosen for the flight.
The various checklist settings will be different for a Cessna 182S and a Boeing 737-400, and they will
also depend on the altitude you will fly at. The list below serves as a reminder of some important
settings you need to check before starting your flight.
1. Start FDC, and click Options on the main screen.
2. Click Select Aircraft in the main options panel.
3. You use the Select Aircraft panel to specify an aircraft for your flight, to select the checklists to
be used, and specify the timing of the checklists. Consider the following issues when working with
this panel:
i. If you select one of your own custom performance files, make sure you select a checklist
that suits the aircraft in the Checklist box.
ii. You can fine tune the delay between a checklist call and its reply by entering a number
(of seconds) in the Interactive checklist option response delay box. This defined the time
you have to correct a checklist item before a negative reply is given.
iii. You can fine tune the starting time of each checklist individually. The values for these
settings depend on both the aircaft you have selected and the flight you are making. As
an example, if you take off in a Boeing 737, it makes sense to initiate the Climb checks as
you pass 6000AGL. If, on the other hand, you take off in a Cessna 182S, you will be
cruising at a lower altitude and climbing slower. Thus, a good starting point for the Climb
checks in a 182 is 2500AGL rather than 6000AGL. The three most important checklist
starting points to consider are the After Takeoff Checks, Climb Checks, and Approach
checks.

4. You can save your settings in a profile. You can then reload the settings for a given aircraft by
simply loading a profile. The profile remembers checklist starting points, the selected aircraft
and checklists, flight deck call details, cabin information settings, etc.
5. Once you are satisfied with your settings in the Select Aircraft panel, click Close to exit the
panel (click Yes to save your changes).
6. Click Flightdeck Calls in the main options panel.
7. You use the Flightdeck Calls panel to enable various types of calls made by the Captain and the
Co -pilot and enable the Virtual Co-Pilot Mode. If you choose to enable this mode (it is on by
default), the co-pilot will automatically respond to flap and gear calls during the flight.
8. Click Close to exit the panel (click Yes to save your changes).
9. Click Misc Items in the main options panel. You will alter two options for each of the two
airports:
10. Although there are many option on the Misc Items options panel, the options that are most
important for these flights are related to the departure and destination airports.
i. Select an appropriate size for each of the airports.
ii. Enter the correct transition altitude for the airports (this is included in the flight
sections).

11. Click Close to exit the panel (click Yes to save your changes).
12. Click Close to exit the main options panel, and return to the FDC main screen.
There are many more options and settings for you to explore in FDC, including ControllerX, which
allows you to customize the buttons of your flight yoke or stick. However, we suggest that once you
have entered good values for the options mentioned above, you should leave the rest at their default
values for now. You can always revisit the various options panel later when you get to know FDC!

Starting Flight Simulator


We have prepared startup positions, making it easy for you to start your flight. Once Flight Simulator
is running and the startup situation is loaded, you can change to a different aircraft.
Note! You cannot connect FDC to Flight Simulator while the introduction screen in Flight Simulator is
open! You have to start the simulator and be in the simulator itself before attempting to establish a
connection!

Establishing a connection
Once the correct startup situation is loaded in Flight Simulator and the settings available in FDC are
set to match your aircraft, it is time to establish a connection between the two.
1. Click FlightDeck Companion in the taskbar to maximize it. (If you run Flight Simulator in full
screen mode, hit Alt-Tab to switch to FDC.)
2. Click Connect on the FDC main sceen.
3. Once a connection is established, FDC will automatically be minimized and Flight Simulator will
be put to the front. (If necessary, click Flight Simulator in the taskbar to maximize Flight
Simulator.)
You are now ready to start your flight!

Next: Performing a FDC flight


QuickStart Flight: Performing a FlightDeck Companion Flight
You are now positioned at the gate in the aircraft of your choice. While the flight itself the navaids
to use, headings to fly, etc. is described in detail in a previous topic, the following page discusses
how FDC will enhance your flight experience. You should keep in mind, though, that you can disable
some of (or even all) these events should you so wish. We assume that the following FDC features are
active:
l All cockpit calls;
l All cabin announcements;
l The GPWS;
l The Virtual Co-Pilot Mode;
l The Auto1 Checklist mode.
The Virtual Co-Pilot Mode enables the co-pilot to automatically respond to flap and gear calls. These
automated events are marked in the text with the abbreviation VCP.
FDC will divide your flight into several flight phases, and each of these flight phases are described in
a different section below.
You can customize FDC to suit any aircraft or flight type. You are allowed to alter the timing of the
various checklists, the timing of some of the cabin announcements, the settings of the GPWS calls,
and so on. In addition, many of the events are triggered by specific events, such as intercepting a
localizer tuned on VOR1. You may therefore experience that some events occur in a different order
during your flight than described.
Some of the features of FDC are not described here. These include the FlightDeck Announcements,
the Turbulence Warning, User File Messages, and general GPWS alerts. For more information on these
features, please refer to the corresponding chapters in the manual.
For a shorter reference, please refer to the FlightDeck Companion Quick Reference.

About Checklists
When the Auto1 checklist mode is active, the various checklists are either started manually (the Crew
briefing/Pre-Start, Before Pushback and Before Start-up checklists) or automatically (all other
checklists). However, you can "jump-start" the next checklist by hitting Ctrl-Space on your
keyboard, even if you are not in the correct flight phase. In this case, the checklist will not be played
over again later during your flight.
If you receive a negative response for a checklist item, you should correct the item in question and
then resume the checklist again by hitting Ctrl-Space. If, for some reason, you are unable to set
the item correctly, you can hit Shift-Escape to ignore the setting. Although the response will still
be negative, the checklist will automatically continue to the next checklist item.

At the Gate
Summary! This phase starts as the Welcome Aboard announcement is played and ends when
the Gate Departure announcement is made. During this phase you will go through the Pre-
Start, Before Pushback, Before Start, and After Start checklists, and start your engine(s).

1. Hit Ctrl-Shift-A on your keyboard to play the Welcome Aboard announcement.


2. Start the Cockpit Crew Briefing by hitting Ctrl-Space on your keyboard.
3. The Pre-start checks will start automatically (following the cockpit briefing).
4. Start the Before Start-up Checks by hitting Ctrl-Space.
5. Start your engine(s) by hitting Ctrl-E in Flight Simulator. This engages the automatic startup
sequence.
6. The After Start checks will start a short while after the engine(s) have started.
7. Hit '.' (period) to release the parking brake.
8. The Gate Departure announcement is played automatically.

Taxi to Runway
Summary! This phase starts as the Gate Departure announcement is played and ends after
the Prepare for Takeoff call is made by the captain. During this phase you will taxi from the
parking position to the holding position short of the runway, hear the Safety Briefing made
by the cabin crew, and go through the Taxi and Before Takeoff checklists.

1. Release the hand brake by hitting '.' (period) on your keyboard.


2. The Gate Departure announcement is played as soon as the parking brake is released.
3. Start taxiing towards the runway. The co-pilot will warn you if you taxi too fast!
4. Immediately after your wheels start rolling, the captain calls for the appropriate flap setting (if
required). The co-pilot will automatically set the called flap setting (VCP).
5. The cabin crew will go through the Safety Briefing.
6. The Taxi checklist will start automatically.
7. Bring the aircraft to a complete stop at the holding position short of the runway. After a short
break, the Before Takeoff checklist will start.

Takeoff
Summary! This phase starts as the Prepare for Takeoff call is made and ends as soon as your
wheels leave the ground. During this phase you will make the Prepare for Takeoff call and
perform the takeoff roll down the runway. During the takeoff roll you will hear various
speed calls.

1. Hit Ctrl-W to make the Prepare for Takeoff call.


2. Roll onto the runway and align with the centerline. Increase the power and start your takeoff
roll.
3. As the speed builds, the co-pilot will make the following speed calls (if the call applies to the
current aircraft):
i. Air Speed Active
ii. 80
iii. 100
iv. V1
v. Rotate (Vr)
vi. V2
Note! Some of these calls may be dropped if they occur too closely.
4. Pull the nose up when the co-pilot calls Rotate.
5. The aircraft will lift off the runway at (or shortly after) the co-pilot has made the V2 call.

Climb
Summary! This phase starts when the wheels leave the ground and ends when the aircraft
passes 3000AGL. During this phase you will raise the gear and flaps, adjust the power to
climb thrust, and go through the After Takeoff checklist.

1. The co-pilot will confirm a positive climb rate shortly after takeoff.
2. The captain will call for Gear up. The co-pilot will automatically raise the gear (VCP). Note! Only
for aircraft with retractable gear!
3. As the speed builds, the captain will call for reduced flap settings and finally for flaps up. The co-
pilot will automatically respond to these calls and retract the flaps (VCP).
4. The After Takeoff checks will be automatically initiated when you pass the specified altitude
(3000AGL by default).

Cruise
Summary! This phase starts when the aircraft climbs through 3000AGL and ends when your
aircraft descends through an altitude calculated by FDC (for details, please refer to the
discussion of flight phases). During this phase you will go through the Climb checks, hear the
Refreshment cabin announcment, reach your cruise altitude, and finally start the descent.

1. The Climb checks will be started when you pass the specified altitude (6000AGL by default).
2. Four minutes after takeoff (this can be customized) the cabin crew will make the Refreshment
Announcement. (Depending on your climb rate, this announcement may be played in the previous
phase.)
3. When you pass the transition altitude, the Altimeter call is made. This indicates that the
altimeter should be adjusted to the standard pressure of 29.92.
4. When you are one thousand feet below the altitude set on the autopilot, the co-pilot will make
the One to go call.
5. The GPWS will give an audible warning as you approach the cruise altitude (the default value is
900 feet before reaching the set altitude).
6. Level off and adjust power to establish the desired cruise speed.
7. Start the descent from cruise altitude according to your flight plan.

Descent
Summary! This phase starts when the aircraft descends through an altitude calculated by
FDC (read more ) and ends when the aircraft descends below 3000AGL. During this phase you
will go through the Descent and Approach checklists, and hear the Final Compliance cabin
announcement.

1. The Descent checklist starts as you descent through the specified altitude (default value is
6000MSL).
2. The Final Compliance announcement start a short while after the phase is activated.
3. Tune your radios to the ILS frequency of the runway at the destination airport.
4. Reduce the power to maintain the appropriate descent speed for your aircraft.
5. The Approach checklist starts as you pass 3000AGL.

Final
Summary! This phase starts as you descend through 3000AGL and ends as your wheel
touches the ground. During this phase you will intercept the Localizer and Glide Slope of the
runway ILS, reduce the speed and extend the appropriate flaps, lower the landing gear, and
perform the final approach to land.

Note! Some of the calls described below may occur in a different order or even in the
previous phase, as the events that trigger these calls may occur at an earlier stage of your
flight.

1. The co-pilot will make the Localizer Alive call once the Localizer needle starts moving on the VOR
indicator.
2. Intercept the localizer. When the needle is centered, the co-pilot will make the Localizer
Captured call. The captain will then make the Set Missed Approach Heading call.
3. The co-pilot will make the Glide Slope Alive call once the Glide Slope needle starts moving on the
VOR indicator.
4. Intercept the glide slope. When the needle is centered, the co-pilot will make the Glide Slope
Captured call. The captain will then make the Set Missed Approach Altitude call.
5. Reduce power as required for your aircraft to maintain the correct speed.
6. As your speed drops and you continue your descent, the captain will make the appropriate flap
calls. These are based on speed alone, or by speed or altitude. The co-pilot responds to these
calls automatically by setting the required flap positions (VCP).
7. The captain makes the Gear Down call at the required time (the call is trigged by either a flap
call or by a given altitude). The co-pilot responds to this call automatically by lowering the
landing gear (VCP). Note! Only for aircraft with retractable gear!
8. The GPWS will start to call out your altitude above the ground (AGL) from the time you pass
2500AGL. The GPWS makes the following alerts: 2500, 1000, 500, 400, Approaching Minimums,
300, 200, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, and finally 10.
9. Perform the landing at the speed appropriate for your aircraft.

Landed
Summary! This phase is activated as your wheels touch the ground and ends once your
ground speed drops below 30 knots. During this phase you will slow down the aircraft and
start taxiing towards the gate.

1. Slow your aircraft down by applying brakes and reverse thrust (if applicable).
2. The co-pilot will call out your speed as the aircraft slows down.
3. The captain will call Flaps Up when the ground speed is reduced appropriately.
4. Start taxiing towards the parking position or gate.

Taxi to Gate
Summary! This phase is activated once your ground speed drops below 30 knots and ends
when you apply the parking brake at the gate. During this phase you will go through the
After Landing checklist, hear the Taxi to Gate cabin announcement, and taxi to the parking
position or gate.

1. Taxi towards the parking position or gate. The co-pilot will warn you if you taxi too fast.
2. The After Landing checklist starts a short time after you landed (default value is 60 seconds).
3. The Taxi to Gate cabin announcement starts automatically as you are taxiing.
4. Bring the aircraft to a complete stop at the appropriate parking position or gate.
5. Hit '.' (period) to apply the parking brakes.

Parked
Summary! This phase is activated when you apply the parking brake. During this phase you
will go through the Parking checklist and shut down your engine(s).

1. The Parking checklist starts automatically shortly after the parking brake is set.
2. Shut down the engine(s).

End of Flight
This marks the end of your flight. You can now go back to FDC, and view your flight log entry. You can
also start a new flight immediately by hitting Ctrl-Shift-A; there is no need to disconnect FDC
from FS and reconnect again.
Using FlightDeck Companion
Using FlightDeck Companion is actually quite simple; the challenge lies in mastering the added level
of realism in your flight simulator!
FlightDeck Companion allows you to customize a large amount of parameters based on your favourite
aircraft. The most important parameters are those gathered in the Performance file for your aircraft.
There are, however, many other parameters that might differ between various aircraft. If you are
flying a GA type aircraft, such as one of Flight Simulator's excellent Cessnas, it would probably seem a
little out of order to have cabin announcements played at various stages during your flight. If, on the
other hand, you later switch to a large airliner, the cabin announcements add a touch of realism and
feeling to your flight. To allow you to quickly recall your own settings for various aircraft and flight
types, FDC features a powerful Profile feature. We strongly recommend you to study how to use
profiles, as we know this will save you a lot of work when you are performing your flights in Flight
Simulator!

The Quick Menu


FlightDeck Companion contains many option panels, and to allow easy navigation between them, a
QuickMenu is at your disposal. To use the QuickMenu:
1. Right-click somewhere in the empty space of the current panel (between labels, buttons, etc.). If
you click on a label, the context-sensitive help for the corresponding item will appear.
2. The QuickMenu appears.
3. Select the panel to go to in the list, or click Cancel to close the QuickMenu.
If there are unsaved changes in the current panel, you will be asked to save them before the selected
panel is activated.

Profiles and how to use them


FlightDeck Companion has lots of options available to you, but going through every panel to change
them whenever you change an aircraft, would be a tedious task. FDC therefore features a strong
profile functionality, allowing you to save the entire FDC set-up for easy retrieval at a later stage. By
creating different profiles for different aircraft and/or different flight types, you can easily restore
the FDC settings that you need to perform the flight in question.
Note! Data for ControllerX is not saved with the profile. FDC keeps only one set of button
assignments at the time.

Restoring defaults
You can at any time restore the defaults for FDC by simply clicking Restore Defaults in one of the
option panels.
Note! All parameters will be restored, not only the parameters on the option panel on which
you clicked the button!

Connecting to Flight Simulator

Connect
Once you have finished setting up FlightDeck Companion to your satisfaction, you are ready to
connect to Flight Simulator. We suggest that you select the aircraft you intend to use and that you
select your departure position (airport and gate) before establishing the connection. Also, to gain full
effect of FDC's cockpit functionality, you should shut down the engines.
1. Close the Options panel (if it is open, that is...)
2. Start Flight Simulator, and select the aircraft and departure location (airport and gate).
(Optional: Shut down the engines.)
3. Click FDC on the task bar (or hit Alt-Tab on your keyboard, and select FDC on the task menu).
4. Click Connect in the FDC main window.
5. If the connection is successful, the FDC main window will automatically be minimized and Flight
Simulator will be brought to front.
FDC will attempt to establish a connection to the flight simulator, and if it succeeds, the message
CONNECTED will appear in the connection status area.
Note! While FDC is connected to the flight simulator, all option panels will be unavailable
for input. You are only allowed to work with the controller assignments while connected.
You can adjust the volume mix in FDC at any time, even while FDC is connected to Flight Simulator,
by clicking Volumes in the main window.

Disconnect
To disconnect FDC from the flight simulator:
1. Click Disconnect in the FDC main window.
2. Click Yes to confirm the disconnection, or click No to stay connected to the flight simulator.
FDC will drop the connection to the flight simulator, and the message NOT CONNECTED will appear in
the connection status area.
Note! All flight parameters used to detect the active flight phase will be reset when FDC is
disconnected from the flight simulator. If you are in the middle of a flight, you run the risk
of having to fly the rest of the flight without FDC realism.

A note on connecting in mid -flight


If you attempt to establish a connection between Flight Simulator and FDC, FDC will handle this in
two ways:
l If you are above 3000MSL when connecting, FDC will automatically assume the next flight phase
will be the Cruise phase. The next checklist will be the Climb checks.
l If you are below 3000MSL when connecting, FDC will assume that the next flight phase will be the
Climb phase. The next checklist will be the After Takeoff checks.

Hotkeys in FlightDeck Companion


You are not required to remember many hotkeys when using FlightDeck Companion. There are,
however, a few that are useful to remember. The hotkeys and their actions are summarized in the
table at the bottom of the page.

Changing hotkeys
You can easily change the hotkeys in FDC:
1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options Panel, click Hotkey Setup.
3. In the Hotkey Setup panel, select the hotkey you would like to change in the Current Hotkeys list
on the left.
4. Click Change Hotkey.
5. Hit the key(s) you wish to use, and click Assign.
6. Confirm (or reject) the change.

Note! The hotkey setup is not saved when you save a profile.
You find a summary of hotkeys here.

Hotkey Summary
Hotkey Action
SPACEBAR Step through each checklist call when in Manual checklist mode.
If you are in Auto 1, Auto 2, or Semi-Auto checklist modes, hitting
SPACEBAR will temporarily pause the checklist being played. To
resume the checklist, hit SPACEBAR once again.

CTRL-SHIFT-A Trigger first cabin announcement.

SHIFT-SPACEBAR Step back through each checklist call.

SHIFT-ESC Bypass an interactive checklist item. This hotkey allows you to


escape a negative checklist response without fixing it. This can be
useful in various situations, for example if your panel doesn't
support the option called for in the checklist call. Although the
response will still be negative, the checklist will move on to the
next checklist item.
CTRL-SPACEBAR Step forward to the next checklist (flight) phase.

CTRL-SHIFT-SPACEBAR Step back to the previous checklist (flight) phase.

CTRL-\ Play the next Flight Deck Announcement.


CTRL-\-A Play the corresponding Flight Deck Announcement from 1 to 26:
CTRL-\-B A = Flight Deck Announcement 1, B = Flight Deck
... Announcement 2, ..., Z = Flight Deck Announcement 26.

played in numerical order using the hotkeys above.

SHIFT-\ Repeat the last Flight Deck Announcement.

CTRL-SHIFT-\ Skip the next Flight Deck Announcement without reading it.

CTRL-W Play the user recorded Turbulence warning message.

CTRL-E Detect the FS hotkey for auto-starting the engines.

CTRL-SHIFT-M Redisplay the last on -screen FDC message in Flight Simulator.

CTRL-SHIFT-X Jump to the next Enroute ATC chatter file selection.

About flight time and black box logging


If you wish, you can have FlightDeck Companion log your flight time and flight data the latter
referred to as black box logging.

Flight time logging


Unlike the automatic flight logging in Flight Simulator, you can specify when FDC should start and
stop the logging of flight time. You can start logging flight time as soon as the engines are started;
when you start taxiing to the runway; or after takeoff. Similarly, you can stop logging flight time as
soon as you have landed; as soon as the parking brake is applied at the gate; or when the engines are
shut down. You can also turn the logging off if you wish. FDC will save the logged flight time in log
files, and if you wish, FDC can create a new log file for each flight you make.
You can view the logged flight time directly in FDC, in the Flight Log panel. This panel also allows you
to delete single entries from the flight log. The Flight Log panel is available both in the main window
of FDC and in the Main Options panel.

Specifying flight time logging


To specify start and stop times for flight logging and file options:
1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Misc Items.
3. Under Flight Time Logging, specify the start and stop options.
4. To create a new log file for each flight, select the New log each flight option. Alternatively, if
you would like all flights to be logged in one file, select the Append to existing log option
(default).
5. Click Save Changes and Close to exit the panel.

Black box logging


The black box logging is activated together with the flight time logging in FDC. The black box data for
the three last flights will be kept. The black box logs all flight data. If you are interested, you can
view all relevant data from your last three flights.
Note! Although black box logging is optional, we strongly recommended you to activate it. In
the unlikely event of a problem this file provides us with essential bug tracking information
to find the error quickly.

Activating black box logging


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Misc Items.
3. Select the Black Box Data Recorder to activate the logging device.
4. Click Save Changes and Close to exit the panel.

Viewing black box logs


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Black Box Log.
3. When you have finished viewing the log, you should click Close to exit the panel.

Log Files
The log files from FDC will be saved to the Logs folder under the FDC installation path. By default,
this path will be C:\Program Files\FDC\Logs
The Flight Time log files will be saved as fdc_flight.log.
The Black Box log files will be saved as Blackbox.log. In addition to the last log file, FDC will also
keep the three previous flights. These will be named Blackbox.log.1, Blackbox.log.2, and
Blackbox.log.3, which is the oldest log file.
About display messages in FlightDeck Companion
FlightDeck Companion will present information to you while you are flying in Flight Simulator. FDC
will display different information to you as the flight progress. The information is pretty self-
explanatory, and is easily understandable when displayed.
You can display the last message from FDC once again by hitting Ctrl-Shift-M. This allows you to
recall a message if you for some reason should have missed it.
You can also customize the time the messages are visible in Flight Simulator, as well as turn them
completely off.
1. In FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Misc Items.
3. Under FDC system operation settings, there are checkboxes for Takeoff data, Cruise data, and
Landing data. Select the messages to display in FDC. Enter the number of seconds to display each
message.
Note! If you enter 0 seconds, the message will be displayed constantly.
4. Click Save Changes and Close to exit the panel.

What messages will be displayed?


The table below shows the most important on screen messages that can appear.

Message Description
Takeoff data This message is displayed as you enter the Taxi flight phase, and contains
speed data for various flap settings.
Cruise data This message is displayed as you enter the Cruise flight phase, and contains
speed data.
Landing data This message is displayed as you enter the Finals phase, and contains speed
data for various flap settings.
Miscellaneous You will receive an on-screen notification when FDC successfully connects to
Flight Simulator; if you have received a negative checklist response; and if
you have to turn on the fuel flow for the engine(s).
Error Hopefully you will not receive these, but should FDC fail for some reason, you
messages will be notified by a message in Flight Simulator.

Pete Dowson's ADVDisplay


Pete Dowson has created the ADVDisplay module for displaying messages in Flight Simulator.
ADVDisplay gives you a moveable window that can be placed anywhere on your panel. You can change
the background and text colours to match your taste. If you want to take advantage of this great
utility, you will find it on the FlightDeck Companion Installation CD. Please read Pete's installation
and usage instructions to learn how to use ADVDisplay. Thanks, Pete! Pete's web site is available at
http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html.
Controlling volume levels
As mentioned earlier, FlightDeck Companion is capable of playing several sounds at the same time;
such as checklist calls, ATC chatter, ambience of various types, and cabin announcements. You are
allowed to control the volume mix of the various sound types from within FDC.

To adjust the volume levels


1. In the FDC main window, click Volumes.
2. Use the control arrows to adjust the volume levels of the various sound components. Possible
volume levels are 1 through 10.
3. Click Save Vols to save your new volume settings.
4. Click Close to exit the panel and return to the FDC main window.
The volume panel available in the main window allows you to adjust the volume settings of FDC even
when a connection to Flight Simulator is active. You can also access the volume panel through the
Main Options panel.
Note! If you have difficulty hearing the FDC sounds you may have to reduce the overall
sounds generated from Flight Simulator to achieve optimum result!

Volume controls
There are seven volume controls in the FDC Sound Controls panel. These are described below.

Volume Sound
Captain The volume of the captain's voice.
Co -pilot The volume of the co-pilot's voice.
Engineer The volume of the engineer's voice.
Cabin crew The volume of the cabin announcements.
GPWS The volume of the GPWS warnings.
ATC Chatter The volume of the ATC chatter (available by selecting the Airport
(air/ground) traffic ambience option on the Misc Items panel).
Airport ambience The volume of the airport ambience (available by selecting the Airport
(air/ground) traffic ambience option on the Misc Items panel).

Using FlightDeck Companion help


There are two ways of getting help in FlightDeck Companion. First, you can read the User Guide, as
you are doing right now. Second, you can read the Context-sensitive help that provides you with help
on the various parameters and functions of the FDC program.

Context -sensitive help


As you have probably already noticed, all labels in FDC contains context-sensitive help information.
You just have to right-click on the label that you want an explanation for, and information about that
parameter appears. There are many useful tips and hints available in the context-sensitive help
entries, so we recommend that you take your time to read them, even if you are already familiar with
the parameter in question.
Abbreviations
We have used a few abbreviations in the documentation. The most important ones are:
l AGL: Altitude above Ground Level;
l MSL: Mean Sea Level;
l GTOW: Gross Takeoff Weight;
l GLW: Gross Landing Weight;
l KIAS: Knots Indicated Air Speed.
For an explanation of other common abbreviations commonly used in aviation, please refer to one of
the online dictionaries that are available.

FDC User Guide


The User Guide is available by hitting F1 anywhere in FDC. In addition, you can also access the User
Guide if you click Main Help in the Main Options panel.
There are several ways of searching for information in the User Guide. You can use both the Table of
Contents, Index, and Full-text search to locate the information you need. Many topics also contain
links to related topics containing useful information about the same subject.
The Favourites tab allows you to make shortcuts to your favourite topics in the help system. To add a
topic to favourites, simply browse to it, and click Add in the Favourites tab to make a shortcut. A
shortcut can be removed later, if you wish.
The toolbar of the User Guide features the following buttons:
l Hide / Show: Click this button to hide or show the panel containing Table of Contents,
l Previous / Next: Click these buttons to go to the previous (or next) topic in the Table of Contents.
Use this buttons to browse through the help in the pre-defined order. This is recommended if you
are reading the entire User Guide continuously.
l Back / Forward: Click these buttons to browse through the browser history. As opposed to the
Previous and Next buttons, these buttons will browse through the pages previously viewed.
l Home: Click this button to return to the front page of the User Guide.
l Font: Click this button to cycle through the font size list. The order of the font list is: Smallest,
Small, Medium, Large, and Largest. The font size in the topic will change as you cycle through the
font size list.
Note! The pages are designed to be viewed using the Medium font size. Note also that the help
viewer shares the same font settings as Internet Explorer on your computer. Thus, if you make
changes to the font size, this will also be used for Internet Explorer.
l Print: Click this button to print the selected topic. You will be asked to select the printer to use.
Note! You can also print an entire book from the Table of Contents if you wish. Simply select the
book you want to print, click the Print button, then the Print the selected heading and all
subtopics option when asked. This question will only appear if you click the Print button while the
book you require is highlighted (the selection is blue rather than grey).
l Options: Click this button to customize the appearance of the help viewer.
Note! The help viewer shares the same settings as Internet Explorer on your computer. Thus, if you
make changes to the Internet Options available under the Options button, these will also affect
the appearance and behaviour of Internet Explorer.
About aircraft and checklists
FlightDeck Companion allows you to select aircraft to use in three different ways. First, you can
either select one of the fully supported aircraft, which will automatically set all the parameters
needed to perform a full flight. Second, you can select the Not Listed option in the Select Aircraft
drop down, and then quickly specify the minimum data required to utilize most of FDC's features.
Third, you can create a new performance file for your aircraft, allowing FDC to support your aircraft
in the best way possible.
FDC fully supports 18 different aircraft. If you choose one of these, you will get a fully working
cockpit environment, with captain and co-pilot communication. Not only checklist calls, but also calls
related to speed and flap settings, flight instruments, gear, etc. FDC supports the following aircraft:
l Airbus A320
l BAe 146
l Beechcraft King Air 350 and Baron 58.
l Boeing 737-400, 747-200 (crew includes engineer), 747-400, 767-200, and 777-300;
l Cessna 172SP, 182S, 182RG, 208 Amphibian, 208B Grand;
l Douglas DC-3;
l Fokker F50;
l Lear Learjet 45
l Mooney Bravo

Note! In the unlikely event that you should actually crash your aircraft, FDC will disconnect
from Flight Simulator and reset all flight parameters.

Selecting an aircraft in FDC


To select an aircraft:
1. In FDC Main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Select Aircraft.
3. Select the aircraft you want to use in the Select Aircraft for this flight drop-down box.
4. Click Save Changes and Close to exit the panel.
The aircraft selected will be displayed in the Main Options panel.
If you select one of the standard FDC aircraft, the corresponding checklist will be automatically
selected for you. However, if you select an aircraft that you have specified yourself, you will have to
manually select the checklist in the Select Checklist to use for this aircraft drop-down box.
Note! You will be unable to establish a connection between FDC and Flight Simulator if the
aircraft selected in FDC doesn't match the aircraft selected in Flight Simulator.

Using aircraft not listed


Although FlightDeck Companion supports many standard Flight Simulator aircraft, you will perhaps not
find your own favourite among these planes. Although we strongly recommend you to create a
performance file and checklist for your aircraft, you will still be able use FDC with your aircraft
quickly.
To quickly use an aircraft that is not listed in FDC:
1. In FDC Main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Select Aircraft.
3. Select the option Not Listed in the Select Aircraft for this flight drop-down box. A new section
will appear below the drop-down box.
4. Select the flap settings supported by the aircraft in the section below the drop-down box. It is
important that the aircraft supports the same number of flap positions as the aircraft (and panel)
in Flight Simulator uses.
5. Specify the V1, Vr, and V2 speeds for the aircraft in the corresponding boxes. V1 is the decision
speed of the aircraft; above this speed you will probably be unable to stop the aircraft on the
runway. Vr is the rotation speed; at which you should raise the nose to lift off the runway. V2 is
the minimum takeoff safety speed; this is the minimum safe flying speed should an engine fail
immediately after takeoff. Vr should be equal to or higher than V1, and V2 should be equal to or
higher than Vr.
6. Select a checklist to use for the aircraft in the Select Checklist for this aircraft drop-down box.
This can be one of the standard checklists, or it can be one of your own creation.
Note! If your aircraft has fixed gear, make sure you select a checklist that also supports fixed
gear aircraft! If you get stuck in an interactive gear call that cannot be corrected, you can hit
Shift-Escape to jump to the next checklist call.
7. Use the checkboxes in the Checklist section to enable (or disable) the checklists you wish to use
with your aircraft.
8. Click Save Changes and OK to exit the panel.

Note! Functionality in FDC that is dependent on the data entered in the Performance file,
will be disabled when you use the Not Listed aircraft. This mainly concerns flap calls during
takeoff and approach.

The cockpit crew


In a modern airliner, the cockpit crew usually consists of two members; the captain and the co-pilot,
also referred to as the first officer. While in flight, the crew members have their separate tasks, and
the communication between them is an essential part of flying an airliner of this size. While Flight
Simulator is fairly accurate on flight dynamics and visual details, this aspect of the cockpit realism is
overlooked. This is where FDC's flightdeck functionality adds an extra dimension to Flight Simulator!
To give you variation while flying, you can select different voice sets for the various crew members,
should you fall out with one of them...

To alter the cockpit crew settings


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main options panel, click Flightdeck calls.
3. The crew options are available on the panel that appears. They will be discussed in greater detail
below.

The captain
In a real aircraft, the captain has the final word on all decisions being made on the flightdeck. Usually
the captain will check each item on the checklist as the co-pilot reads them from the checklist.
In FDC you can disable (or enable) groups of calls made by the captain, or you can "switch him off"
altogether. In addition, you define the altitude at which the captain makes the Climb thrust call.
The co-pilot
The co-pilot will, amongst other tasks, usually read you through the checklists (although you are free
to decide who should read the checklist when you create your own checklists), make flap calls, and
make the speed calls at take off.
You can enable or disable the co-pilot entirely, or you can enable or disable a group of calls that
should be made.
The co-pilot is also responsible for making the Prepare for take-off call to your cabin crew. You have
several options for enabling this call.
l Hotkey: The call is made when you hit the hotkey (same as Turbulence Warning hotkey).
l Auto: The call is armed when you stop the aircraft after taxiing from the terminal. The call is
played the moment the aircraft starts moving again, assuming that you are now rolling onto the
runway and ready to take off.
l Before takeoff checks: The announcement is made immediately before you start the takeoff
checklist.
l After takeoff checks: The announcement is played once the before takeoff checklist is complete.
You should select the option that best suits your taxiing habits. If you for various reasons have to start
and stop your aircraft several times while taxiing (as a result of other airport traffic or similar), one
of the two last options might be good, since they prevent the announcement from being armed far
too early.
Note! Using the hotkey to trigger the announcement also provides an easy way to set FDC in
the Ready for takeoff phase. This allows you to start the flight in a quick way.

The engineer
New electronics and more technically advanced cockpits have more or less made the engineer
superfluous in modern airliners. However, on old, large airliners, the cockpit crew usually included an
engineer to take care of technical and navigational tasks. In FDC, the engineer is present if you select
the Boeing 747-200 Jumbo Jet. The engineer will also be available in any performance file you add
having three crew members.
As for the other cockpit crew members, you can select which calls the engineer should make, or
"switch him off" altogether.

The Virtual Co-Pilot mode


In a real aircraft, the co-pilot will respond to flap and gear calls during the flight. The Virtual Co-Pilot
mode in FlightDeck Companion allows you to enable the co-pilot to respond to these calls by setting
flaps and gear automatically according to the pilot's calls.
To enable the Virtual Co-Pilot mode:
1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Flightdeck Calls.
3. In the lower left section of the panel, select the Virtual Co-Pilot Mode checkbox.
4. Click Save Changes and Close to exit the panel.
While the Virtual Co-Pilot mode is active your co-pilot will automatically extend and retract flaps and
lower and retract the landing gear according to the captain's calls. If you would rather take care of
these operations yourself, simply disable the Virtual Co-Pilot mode by deselecting the Virtual Co-Pilot
Mode checkbox.
Checklist modes
FlightDeck Companion divides your flight into several flight phases automatically based on various
criteria. The checklists available in FDC can be synchronized with these flight phases, or they can be
advanced manually. The various modes are discussed in detail below.

Interactive checklist calls


FDC will control many of the checklist calls made. Thus, if the item of a checklist call is not set
correctly, you will get a negative response for the call. You can specify the length of the delay
yourself, allowing you the time to avoid the negative call by correcting the item. If you receive a
negative response, the checklist will be temporarily paused. When you have corrected the checklist
item, you must manually resume the checklist again. The call will be made again to ensure that the
response is positive, before the checklist is advanced further.
You can turn off all checklist interactivity by turning off the Interactive Checklist Master Switch on
the Select Aircraft options panel. All checklist calls that have the reply set to Call Actual Setting will
not have a reply at all.
Note! Interactive checklist calls are unfortunately not available if you are using FDC with
Microsoft Flight Simulator 98.

To change the checklist mode:


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the main options panel, click Select Aircraft.
3. Under the checklist section on the right of the panel, select the checklist mode you would like to
use; Auto, Semi-Auto, or Manual.
4. Click Save Changes and then OK to exit the panel.

To change the negative response delay:


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the main options panel, click Select Aircraft.
3. Under the checklist section on the right of the panel, enter the number of seconds for the delay
in the Delay box.
4. Click Save Changes and then OK to exit the panel.

Auto 1 and Auto 2


If you select one of the Auto mode, the checklist will be locked to the flight phases in FDC. The
checklists will be played a short time after the flight phase has been activated, except for the
checklists at the gate (explained below). When in the Auto modes, the checklists will be started
automatically. However, the execution of the checklist differs between the two. If you use Auto 1
checklists will play automatically. The only interaction you have to do is to resume the checklist again
(by hitting Ctrl-Spacebar) when you have received a negative checklist response. If you use Auto 2
the checklist will stop after each checklist is made. You will then have the chance to check the item,
and correct it. When you're happy with the item, you hit Spacebar to hear FDC call out the
response, and then make the next checklist call. Thus, FDC will automatically progress through the
checklist if you select the Auto 1 mode, while you must manually progress through it if you select the
Auto 2 mode.
As mentioned above, you must manually control the checklists at the gate. Before you start, you
should start the crew briefing by hitting Ctrl-Space. The captain will instruct the cockpit crew of
how to respond to failures during takeoff. The first checklist is the Pre-start checklist, and you start
it by hitting Ctrl-Space once again. If you receive a negative response, you must correct the item,
and then hit Ctrl- Space to recall the item once again. Once the Pre-start checklist is complete,
you can advance through the Before push-back and Before start-up checklists in the same way. The
rest of the checklists will be timed according to the parameters entered in the Select Aircraft Panel
in FDC, starting with the After start-up checklist, which will be started when the specified time
interval has elapsed after you have started your engines.
Note! You can start the next checklist by hitting Ctrl-Spacebar and restart the last
checklist by hitting Ctrl-Shift-Spacebar. When a checklist is played, it will not be be
played again (even when the triggering condition is met).

Semi-Auto
If you select the Semi-Auto mode, the checklists will be detached from the flight phases, and you can
scroll through the various checklists by using the hotkeys ( Ctrl-Spacebar to scroll forward and
Ctrl-Shift-Spacebar to scroll back). However, the checklists themselves will be played
automatically, and you only have to start the checklist again (by hitting Ctrl-Spacebar) when you
have received a negative checklist response.
Note! If you select the Semi-Auto or Manual checklist modes, the checklists will no longer
be attached to the flight phases.

Manual
If you select the Manual mode, the checklists will be detached from the flight phases, exactly as for
Semi-Auto mode. You can use the hotkeys to scroll through the checklists. However, you also need to
hit Spacebar to advance through the checklist calls. The Manual mode also lets you scroll through
the individual checklist calls (hit Ctrl-Spacebar for the previous and Spacebar for the next
checklist call).

Checklists in FlightDeck Companion


FligthDeck Companion allows you to select which checklists you would like to include in your flight.
The following checklists are available to you:
Pre-start, Before pushback, Before start, After start, Taxi, Before takeoff, After takeoff, Climb,
Descent, Approach, After landing, Parking.

To disable or enable a checklist


1. In the main FDC window, click Options.
2. In the main Options panel, click Select Aircraft.
3. Under checklists, select the checkmark(s) for the checklist(s) you wish to enable. Alternatively,
deselect the checkmark(s) for the checklist(s) you wish to disable.
4. Click Save changes and then OK to exit the panel.

Controlling the Auto mode


As mentioned in the topic covering checklist modes, you can control how the checklists will be timed
in the Auto mode. The timing settings are available only when you have selected the Auto option.
The table below summarizes how and when the various checklists are started in the Auto mode.
Checklist Criteria
Pre -start You must manually start the checklist by hitting Ctrl-Space.

Before You must manually start the checklist by hitting Ctrl-Space.


Pushback
Before You must manually start the checklist by hitting Ctrl-Space.
start-up
After start- The checklist is run after you have started the engines. Specify a time delay in
up seconds.
Taxi The checklist is run after you have started taxiing. Specify a time delay in
seconds.
Before The checklist is run after the aircraft has stopped after taxiing. Specify a time
takeoff delay in seconds.

After The checklist is run after a given altitude or after a given time delay, depending
takeoff on which of the two occurred last.
As an example, assume that you enter an altitude of 3000 ft and a time delay of
60 seconds. If you reach 3000 ft in 30 seconds, you must wait another 30
seconds for the checklist to start. However, if you reach 3000 ft in 90 seconds,
the checklist will start as soon as this altitude is reached.
Climb The checklist is run when the aircraft has reached a given altitude.
Descent The checklist is run when the aircraft has reached a given altitude.
Approach The checklist is run when the aircraft has reached a given altitude.
After The checklist is run after the flaps have been raised. Specify a time delay in
landing seconds.
Parking The checklist is run when the aircraft comes to a complete stop at the gate
after taxiing from the runway at the destination airport. The checklist is
activated when the parking brake is applied.

Flightdeck calls
Checklists as described in the previous topics are the most important flightdeck calls available in
FlightDeck Companion. However, there are other calls as well; FDC adds cockpit realism by
introducing proper flap calls, takeoff calls, etc. These calls are triggered by events in the simulator,
such as the speed of your aircraft, the altitude, etc. The various categories of flightdeck calls are
summarized in the table at the bottom of this page.

To enable (or disable) a group of calls


1. In the main FDC window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Flightdeck Calls.
3. Select (or deselect) the checkmark(s) for the type(s) of calls you wish the crew member to make.
Alternatively you can disable all calls from the given crew member by deselecting the checkbox
next to the crew member. This will disable all the options for that crew member.
4. Click Save Changes and OK to exit the panel.
Types of calls
The table below summarizes the various types of calls available, and gives some examples of various
calls. In addition, the crew members who can make the calls are also mentioned.

Type of Call Description Crew


member
Checklists Calls made in conjunction with checklists. Captain, Co -
pilot,
Engineer
Flap calls Calls made when operating the flaps Captain, Co -
pilot,
Engineer
Takeoff calls Calls made during takeoff, such as V1, Rotate, and V2. Captain, Co -
pilot,
Engineer
Misc calls Miscellaneous calls made during the flight, such as gear calls, Captain, Co -
altimeter calibration calls, etc. pilot,
Engineer
Crew Message read at the start of the flight, before the checklists are Captain
Briefing read.
Speed check When the Pilot Flying (PF) makes flap calls the Pilot Not Flying Co -pilot
(PNF) will sometimes say Speed Check to indicate that he has
double-checked the PF's call, and to confirm that setting the
flaps will be within the safety margins for the aircraft.
Altitude The Altitude Alert (One to go ) is called by the PNF when the Co -pilot
Alert (1 to aircraft climbs (or descends) to within 1000 ft off the Autopilot
go) setting.

A note on Altimeter calls


When the aircraft passes the transition altitude of an airport (either descending or climbing), the
barometer settings of the altimeter should be changed. In some cases, this will occur while the climb
or descent checklists are run, in which case the Altimeter call will be made in the checklist.
Otherwise, the call will be skipped in the checklist, and instead played when you actually pass the
transition altitude.

A note on flap calls


The number of flap calls and at which speed they are made depend on the performance data given for
the aircraft you use. The Flaps Up call after landing will be different for GA and non-GA aircraft. FDC
will display flap and speed data for your aircraft at various times during your flight. You can use the
Performance Editor to view the data for each aircraft in detail.

Fine tuning speed and altitude calls


On some graphic intensive panels you may find that speed and altitude calls occur too late. The One-
hundred knots call made during takeoff may occur when your speed readout is actually showing more
than 100 knots. FDC allows you to fine tune these calls on the Misc Items panel, under the FDC
system operation settings section. There are three settings available, one for speed calls, one for
altitude calls below 100 ft, and one for altitude calls above 100 ft.
Entering a higher number in these boxes makes the call occur earlier, while entering a lower number
makes the call occur later. The default settings found on this page are based on the default Flight
Simulator aircraft and panels. However, with a little tweaking of these values, you should be able to
adjust the calls to be accurate using any aircraft and panel combination.
Note! The figures entered in these boxes are saved with your profiles. If you find that you
need different figures for different aircraft and panel combinations, we recommend that
you save your settings in a profile for each combination. This saves you the extra work of
having to edit these numbers each time you change aircraft.

Flightdeck call settings


Some of the flightdeck calls have individual settings. These are:

Call setting Description


Climb thrust You can specify the altitude at which the captain will make the Climb thrust
call.
Prepare for You can specify when the co-pilot will make the Prepare for takeoff call. Your
takeoff options are Auto, hotkey, After takeoff checks, and Before takeoff checks.
IAS Active You can specify the speed (in knots) at which the co-pilot will make the IAS
Active call (IAS = Indicated Air Speed).

Note! The Takeoff Flight Phase is activated when the co-pilot makes the Prepare for takeoff
call. Using the hotkey to make the call therefore constitutes a way of "jump starting" the
Takeoff flight phase, should you so wish.

Procedural variations for flap calls


There are slight variations in how different airlines perform certain functions. For example, while the
crews of some airlines flying the Boeing 747-200 do not call for Flaps 5 during takeoff or landing,
other airlines procedures require their crew to do so. Also, sometimes a Flaps 10 call from a captain
will receive a Flaps 10 confirmation from the first officer. In other procedures, the first officer will
confirm Flap 10 selected, and once the flap movement is complete, he will call Flap 10 set. FDC
acknowledges this difference, and allows you to select the procedure variation you prefer.
Note! The panel you use for your aircraft must support the flap settings defined for the
selected aircraft in FDC.

Variation Call
1 Captain: "Flap 10"
Co-pilot: "Flap 10"
2 Captain: "Flap 10"
Co-pilot: "Flap 10 selected"
Co-pilot: "Flap 10 set"

Handling the approach


As you know, whether you are a real-life pilot or a flight simulator enthusiast, the approach and
landing are the most challenging situations when flying an aircraft. This is also the case for FDC. You
might need to perform a missed approach, or you might feel like performing a Touch'N'Go at your
favourite airport. Or you might find yourself a little below the glideslope, and want to climb a little
to align yourself better with the glideslope. How will FDC actually handle these different situations to
find out what you are actually doing?
Missed approach
Most pilots will at some point or another have experienced a missed approach. This can happen due to
wind conditions, visibility, and other technical reasons. You will also sometimes have to perform
missed approaches in Flight Simulator. FDC detects a missed approach if you start climbing above the
glide slope of the runway, if the runway is ILS equipped. Otherwise, starting to climb during the
Approach phase will be interpreted as a missed approach. FDC will in these cases automatically issue
a Gear up call. However, you must manually restart the Approach checklist, should you wish to run it.
You do this by hitting Ctrl-Shift-Space.
In case of a missed approach, the GPWS will be reset, and you will receive the GPWS calls again when
you start descending to attempt a new approach.
Note! When you perform a missed approach, the flight phases will not be changed. You will
still be in the Approach phase as you go around and attempt a new approach.

Touch-and-go
Pilots of smaller aircraft frequently perform Touch'N'Gos at various airports. When you perform a
Touch'N'Go, FDC will follow you, and automatically return to the Descent phase as you take off from
the runway again. The After Takeoff and Climb checks will be played over again, and as you descend
to make your approach to another airport, the Approach checklist will once again play automatically
(if you are using the Auto checklist mode).

Climbing during approach


When performing an ILS approach, you will frequently find yourself below the glideslope, and will
need to climb a little to align yourself properly for your landing. As long as you are below the
glideslope, FDC assumes that you are performing minor adjustments as a part of your normal landing
procedure. However, if you climb too much above the glideslope, FDC assumes that you are
performing a missed approach, as explained above.
Note! In the unlikely event that you should actually crash your aircraft, FDC will disconnect
from Flight Simulator and reset all flight parameters.

Selecting voice sets for the crew


FlightDeck Companion contains 15 different voice sets that you can use for your cockpit crew. Thus,
should you fall out with one of the crew members, you can always replace him or her with another.
The voice sets feature various dialects and timbres, so hopefully you will be able to compose a
cockpit crew that you are happy with! If you are really serious about your flight experience, you can
also add your own voice set to FDC!

To select a voice for a crew member:


1. In FDC Main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Voice Sets.
3. Select a voice set for the crew member(s). You can hear a sample of the selected voice by
selecting a sample in the drop-down box, and then clicking Play your selection.
4. Click Save Changes and OK to exit the panel.
Recording your own voice set
Each of the 15 available voice sets in FlightDeck Companion contain more than 1000 different
recordings. It's a formidable amount of work our voice authors have invested in recording all of these.
However, FlightDeck Companion is designed to handle 16 different voice sets, the last slot being left
open for your own recorded voice sets. If you have the patience to record all the various calls,
replies, and messages, you have the opportunity to actually take the captain's (or first officer's) seat
yourself! As you might have noticed, there are fewer messages read by the captain than by the first
officer. Thus, if you plan to use your voice set only as the captain's voice, you can record a smaller
voice set comprising a little more than 600 messages. By recording the remaining 400+ messages, you
will have a fully compatible voice set that can be used for any crew member in FDC.
All the voice recordings available in FDC currently were recorded using the excellent tool SimVoice,
by Kirby Angell. You might want to check it out before starting recording all of the messages available
in FDC!

Adding your own voice set to FlightDeck Companion


Here are guidelines to assist you in creating your own voice set. The guidelines assume that you are
familiar with recording sound files. If not, you can find some simple instructions here (although these
instructions are for recording flight deck announcements, the recording technique is the same). The
guidelines also assume that you are familiar with working with files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Although the steps might seem simple below, don't expect the task to be finished in an evening. To
allow the recordings to be as natural as possible, you should take some breaks and rest your voice for
a couple of hours during the recording process. Good luck!
All the different voice messages are available here. You will find two listings; one listing only the calls
made by the captain, and one containing all messages available in FDC.
1. Print out the list of voice recordings to be made.
2. Record the messages one by one, and save them under the name given in the list of calls. The
sound files must be recorded in 11025 Mhz, 8 bit mono format.
Note! Make sure that you get the file names correct, or otherwise FDC will not be able to locate
the messages when they are required!
3. In the installation folder of FDC, you will find a folder named Wav, and inside this you will find 16
voice set folders. Locate the folder named Voice16. Copy all the files you have recorded into this
folder.
4. Start FDC, go to the Voice Sets panel under Main Options, and select voice set # 16.
5. Start Flight Simulator, connect to FDC, and prepare to perform your first flight with your own
voice recordings.
About cabin information
FlightDeck Companion supports three different types of cabin information. First, there are the cabin
announcements that are made by the cabin crew. These are pre-recorded announcements, and FDC
contains five different recordings for various languages and accents. Second, there are the user files
messages. These are your own recordings and contain information to your passengers. The user files
are timed and played automatically. Third, there are the flightdeck announcements. These are also
your own recordings, but they can be played randomly and are activated by hotkeys. The last
category also includes the turbulence warning message, which you can activate by hitting Ctrl-W.

The cabin announcements


The cabin announcements are made by the flight attendants at various stages of the flight, starting
with the Welcome aboard announcement after your passengers have boarded the aircraft, and ending
with the Taxi to terminal announcement that is played on your way to the terminal after landing.
You have the option of selecting between five cabin crews of different nationalities, including a UK
and a US crew. The Cabin Info panel available in Main Options also allows you to hear a sample of
each crew, should you wish to do so.

Starting the cabin announcements


You can manually start the cabin announcements using the hotkey, or you can have FDC start them
automatically. Using the hotkey Ctrl-Shift-A allows you to start going through the cockpit
checklists while your virtual passengers are boarding the aircraft, and then play the cabin
announcement when they have finished embarking. Should you wish to let FDC start the cabin
announcements automatically, the Welcome Aboard announcement will played immediately after the
connection to Flight Simulator is established. FDC also offers a third choice, where you can have FDC
start the cabin announcement automatically when you are flying a jet airliner, while you start them
manually for other aircraft. This option allows you to have cabin announcements with large airliners,
and start them if you wish to when flying smaller aircraft.
Note! If you use the hotkey to start the announcements, no announcements will be played
at all until you have hit the hotkey (this is an easy way of making flights without cabin crew
and without having to adjust the settings in FDC).
To change the way cabin announcements are started:
1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Cabin Info.
3. Select the start-up method by checking the appropriate checkbox. Options are Auto for all
aircraft, Manual (use Ctrl-Shift-A), and Auto only on for jets.
4. Click Save Changes and Close to save your changes and exit the panel.

The cabin announcements


The table below summarizes the six available cabin announcements and when they are played.

Announcement Description
Welcome aboard The announcement is played when you hit Ctrl-Shift-A (if you have
selected the Manual start-up option) or shortly after the connection to
Flight Simulator is established (if you have selected the Auto start-up
option).
Prepare for gate The announcement is played immediately after you have released the
departure parking brake.
Safety briefing The safety briefing is played a given time delay after you have started to
taxi towards the runway holding position (time delay entered in seconds
on the Cabin Info panel).
Refreshments The announcement is played a given time delay after your aircraft has
left the ground. The time delay is entered in minutes on the Cabin Info
panel. In addition, FDC must be in the Cruise flight phase (read more
about flight phases).
Descent (Final The announcement is played when FDC has determined that your aircraft
compliance) has started its descent towards your destination airport (read more
about flight phases).
Taxi to terminal The final announcement is played approximately 30 seconds after the
speed of your aircraft has dropped below 25 knots.

About user messages


While the cabin announcements made by the cabin crew are pre -recorded in FlightDeck Companion,
the user files messages offer you the chance to add your own, personal information to your virtual
passengers. The triggering of the user files are based on other events, so when these conditions are
met, the user messages are played automatically. You can include up to twelve different user
messages.
Note! While the user files are played automatically, FDC also offers you the capability of
adding up to 99 flightdeck announcements that can be played randomly during your flight.

Timing the user files


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click User Files.
3. Enter the timing parameter for each user message in minutes in the appropriate boxes.
4. Click Save Changes and then Close to save your changes and exit the panel.

Note! Setting the timing parameter to 0 means you turn the given user file off. Since the
user files are blank when you install FDC, all the parameters will be set to 0 initially.

Timing of user files


The table below summarizes the timing of the various user files.

User Description
File
1 The message is played the specified time interval after the first cabin announcement
(Welcome aboard) is made.
2 The message is played the specified time interval after the second cabin
announcement (Prepare for gate departure) is made.
3 The message is played the specified time interval after the third cabin
announcement (Security briefing) is made.
4 The message is played the specified time interval after the fourth cabin
announcement (Refreshments) is made.
5-11 The message is played the specified time interval after the previous user file has
been played.
12 The message is played the specified time interval after the parking brake has been
set after taxiing to the terminal at the destination airport.
Note! This time interval is given in seconds, not minutes!

The user files that are timed after events other than other user messages, can be handled
individually. Thus, you can, if you wish, include user file 1, 3, and 12.
If one or more of the user files should overlap, FDC will queue the messages and play them in rapid
succession.

Adding user file messages to FlightDeck Companion


Supplied with FDC are twelve user file blanks named user01.wav through to user12.wav. Adding your
own recordings simply involves copying your file into FDC's wav folder, and then rename it to the
appropriate file number. You will find FDC's wav folder in the folder where you installed FDC. The
default installation path is C:\Program Files\FDC, and thus the default Wav path is C:\Program
Files\FDC\Wav.
Note! It is a good idea to make a copy of the original user files supplied with FDC should you
wish to revert to the original FDC settings.

Note! When you record user files, please use the format 11025, 8 bit, mono to ensure
compatibility throughout FDC.

An example...
Let's say you want to record your own message that is to be played three minutes after the fourth
cabin announcement (Refreshments) has been made. This is done by recording a new user04.wav and
copy it into the correct folder. The steps to this procedure are presented below.
1. Record your message using Sound Recorder in Windows, or similar recording software. Once you
are satisfied with your recording, save it.
2. Open Windows Explorer.
3. Locate FDC's wav folder (default path C:\Program Files\FDC\Wav).
4. Rename the default FDC user file (user04.wav) to a suitable backup name, or create a backup
copy somewhere on your hard disk.
5. Copy the recording you made above to the Wav folder, and rename it to user04.wav.
6. Open FDC, or switch to it if it is already running. Note! You must be disconnected from Flight
Simulator to perform the steps below.
7. In the FDC main window, click Options.
8. In the Main Options panel, click User Files.
9. Enter the number 3 in the text box after Play File 04. The line should now read the following:
Play File 04 3 mins after 'Cruise' msg
10. Click Save Changes and Close to save your changes and close the panel.
11. Click Close in the Main Options panel to return to FDC main window.
12. Connect to Flight Simulator. The user message will be played three minutes after the 'Cruise'
announcement (a.k.a. Refreshments) have been made.

Note! Please ensure that you rename the user files correctly, including the preceding '0' for
user file 1 to 9. These files should be named user01.wav, user02.wav, etc. rather than
user1.wav, user2.wav, etc.
About flight deck announcements
In addition to the 12 user files that will be played automatically based on timed triggers during your
flight, FlightDeck Companion also supports up to 99 Flight deck announcements that can be played
randomly during your flight. These files your own recordings or selections could perhaps be the
Captain's in-flight chat to his passengers, explanations for unusual events, etc. The flight deck
announcements are stored in strict numerical order, and when you hit the appropriate hotkey, the
next message is played. You can, if you wish, skip the next message in the queue. When the last
available file has been played, FDC loops back to the beginning of the list, and starts over again.
FDC also features direct shortcut keys for the 26 first Flight deck announcements in your set. You can
play the first announcement by hitting Ctrl-\-A, the second by hitting Ctrl-\-B, the third by
hitting Ctrl-\-C, and so on. The 26th announcement is played by hitting Ctrl-\-Z.

Note! You can play Flight deck announcements at any time in your flight, even before the
first cabin announcement has been made.

Short, medium, and long hauls


The flight deck announcements might differ between various types of flight. FDC allows you to record
three different sets of messages; you can select between these on the User Files panel in FDC. You
can record files into Short Haul, Medium Haul, and Long Haul sets.
To select a different set of flight deck announcements:
1. In FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click User Files.
3. At the bottom of the panel, select the type of journey you want to make. Available options are
Short Haul, Medium Haul, and Long Haul.
4. Click Save Changes and Close to exit the panel.

Using Flightdeck announcements in Flight Simulator


Note! You obviously need to have FDC connected in Flight Simulator to perform the
operations described below...
While in Flight Simulator, you can control the Flight deck announcements by
l hitting Ctrl-\-A, Ctrl -\-B, Ctrl -\-C, ... Ctrl-\-Z to play the first, second, third, ...,
26th Flight deck announcement respectively;
l hitting Ctrl-\ to play the next Flight deck announcement in the list;
l hitting Shift-\ to replay the last Flight deck announcement played;
l hitting Ctrl-Shift-\ to skip the next Flight deck announcement in the list without playing it.

Flight Deck Announcement sample files


The FDC installation CD contains a set of Flight Deck Announcement sample created by Scott Hayden.
To get a demonstration of what Flight Deck Announcement files can sound like, please explorer the
CD, and install the files to the appropriate folder in the FDC folder structure.
Adding flight deck announcements
FlightDeck Companion does not come with file blanks for Flightdeck announcements (unlike for the
user files feature). However, the files should be named in a similar fashion to that of User message
files. The first Flightdeck announcement should be named FD01.wav, the second FD02.wav, etc.
Note! Be sure to include the preceding 0 in the file name for the announcements 1 to 10.
The file name should be FD01.wav, FD02.wav, etc., and not FD1.wav, FD2.wav, etc.
You can install as many (or as few) files as you wish up to a maximum of 99 (the last would be named
FD99.wav).
Note! When you record flightdeck announcements, please use the format 11025, 8 bit, mono
to ensure compatibility throughout FDC.
FDC allows you to keep three different sets of flight deck announcements. There are organized into
the three categories Short Haul, Medium Haul, and Long Haul. Each of these sets can contain 99 user
messages. The files belonging to each category should be copied to the corresponding folder inside
FDC's FD_User_Announcements folder. If you used the default installation path when installing FDC,
these folders would be C:\Program Files\FDC\FD_User_Announcements\Short_Haul, C:\Program
Files\FDC\FD_User_Announcements\Medium_Haul, and C:\Program
Files\FDC\FD_User_Announcements\Long_Haul.

An example...
To add flight deck announcements (such as information to passengers about delays, welcome on
messages from the captain, etc.) to a medium haul flight, follow the steps below.
1. Record your message using Sound Recorder in Windows, or similar recording software. Once you
are satisfied with your recording, save it.
2. Open Windows Explorer.
3. Locate FDC's wav folder (default path C:\Program
Files\FDC\FD_User_Announcements\Medium_Haul).
4. Copy the recordings you made above to the Medium_Haul folder, and rename them to fd01.wav,
fd02.wav, etc.
5. Open FDC and Flight Simulator, and establish a connection.
6. When you have reached the point in the flight where you would like to play your announcement,
hit Ctrl-\.
7. Repeat the last step for all your messages, playing them at the appropriate time during your
flight. You can skip a message by hitting Ctrl-Shift-\, or replay a message by hitting Shirt-
\.

Sample recordings in FlightDeck Companion


On the FDC CD you will find a set of pre-recorded sample files recorded by Scott Hayden. There are
two sets of files available. The first set is recorded as the Captain of the crew, and is suitable if you
use Scott's voice set (#8) for the Captain's voice. The second set is recorded as the first officer, and is
suitable if you use Scott's voice set for the First Officer's voice. These recordings are included to allow
you to easily test out the Flight Deck Announcement feature in FDC. Please study the product CD to
learn more!
Turbulence Warning Message
When an airliner encounters bad weather, it is quite usual for the Captain to make an announcement
to reassure his passengers. FlightDeck Companion lets you record your own turbulence warning
message, and save it in the default Wav folder of your FDC installation path. The file should be named
fd00.wav. The default FDC installation path is C:\Program Files\FDC. Once recorded and copied to the
correct folder, you can activate the message from within Flight Simulator by hitting Ctrl-W.

Note! Be sure to name the Turbulence warning message fd00.wav, and place it in the Wav
folder (default would be C:\Program Files\FDC\Wav
A Turbulence warning message could be something like
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. I'm afraid we have a little unsettled weather
ahead, so I would suggest you all please take your seats and fasten your seatbelts.
If you want to use the Turbulence warning message on your flights, you must record your own
message, and save it in under the file name and path stated above.
About the GPWS
FlightDeck Companion features a built-in Ground Proximity Warning System GPWS for short. Some
panels already support a GPWS, in which case you can easily disable FDC's GPWS on the GPWS panel.
The GPWS produces audible warnings and alerts when various events occur in the simulator. While
most of the features such as Low terrain and Bank angle warnings are not connected to the flight
phases of FDC, features related to the landing and final approach of the aircraft such as altitude
readings will only be activated when FDC is in the Approach or Landing phases.

How to disable the GPWS


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click GPWS.
3. In the GPWS Settings panel, deselect the GPWS Master option.

Types of GPWS calls


The GPWS in FlightDeck Companion features several different types of calls, and they will be
triggered by various events and criteria. You can customize most of these criteria yourself. The
categories below reflect the categories available in the GPWS Settings panel. Thus, to deactivate a
group of calls, simply deselect the corresponding option.

Landing Calls
The GPWS will call your altitude as you descend to land. The calls start at 2500 ft above the ground,
provided FDC is in the Approach phase. If you're flying an aircraft with a three-man crew, the
engineer will make these calls rather than the GPWS (which in a real aircraft are automated, pre-
recorded calls).
In addition, the GPWS will alert you when you have reached the Decision Height by making the
Minimums call. The decision height is the latest point at which you can perform a missed approach;
when passing this height, you will have to land no matter what!
When you are intercepting an ILS localizer beam, the GPWS will make this call as the localizer (ILS
tuned on VOR1) starts moving. The call is only made when FDC is in the Approach or Finals phase, and
when your altitude is below the specified altitude on the GPWS panel.

Miscellaneous Calls
These calls are the Bank Angle and the Low Terrain Warning calls. The Bank Angle call is made when
your bank angle exceeds the angle entered in the Bank Angle box.
The Low Terrain Warning message warns you when the altitude measured by the radio altimeter
drops below the altitude entered in the Low Terrain Warning box below. The radio altimeter will
always measure the distance between the belly of the aircraft and the terrain below. The warning
will only occur, however, when the aircraft's gear is in the up position.
If you set either of the two parameters above to zero, the calls are effectively turned off.
Alternatively, you can disable both of the calls by deselecting the Misc Calls option.

Audio Altitude Alert


The Audio Altitude Alert allows you to receive an audible signal when the aircraft approaches the
altitude set in the autopilot. The Audio Altitude Alert is played at a distance from the set altitude.
You define this distance by entering a number in the A/P Audio Altitude Alert box below. The default
value for this distance is 900ft.
To illustrate how the Audio Altitude Alert works, let's say that you are cruising at 20.000ft, and
starting the descent to land. You have programmed the autopilot to an altitude of 5000ft, and the
distance set in the A/P Audio Altitude Alert box is kept at the default value of 900ft. In this case, the
alert will be given as you pass an altitude of 5900ft. If you are climbing from takeoff, however, and
have the autopilot set to 20.000 ft, the alert will be given as you pass 19.100ft.
Note! While the other GPWS calls are voice recordings, the Audio Altitude Alert is a beep .
About ambience
In addition to the voice of your co-pilot (and maybe your engineer) and the cabin crew
announcements, you can also have FlightDeck Companion add airport ambience or ATC (Air Traffic
Control) chatter to your flight.

Airport ambience
Ever paid any attention to the difference in background noise between various airports? Usually, the
background noise will differ between airports of a different size, simply because of the distance to
the runway, the size of the aircraft served by the airport, and the frequency of departures and
arrivals. To create a realistic background ambience for your airports, FDC allows you to select the
size of your departure and destination airports individually. Based on your selection, FDC plays airport
ambience that suits an airport of that type. You can select between Small, Medium, and Large airport
size. FDC also allows you to control the interval (in seconds) between files being played. You can turn
airport ambience on and off on the Misc Items panel under Options in FDC.

ATC Chatter
Air Traffic Control (ATC) Chatter is the communication going on between the air traffic controllers in
the various sectors, and the pilots of the aircraft passing through that sector. FDC offers an extensive
ATC Chatter functionality allowing you to
l add different ATC chatter based on geographic location;
l add different ATC chatter based on the current flight phase of your flight;
l select between ATC from various geographic areas during your flight;
l select ATC chatter based on the frequency set on the COM1 radio in flight simulator.
FDC doesn't contain any ATC chatter sound files by default. Adding ATC chatter files to FDC is simply a
matter of copying your own favourite chatter files to the appropriate folder in the FDC folder
structure. You will be able to find an extensive collection of ATC chatter files on the Internet, at one
of the large file libraries dedicated to Flight Simulator.

ATC Chatter in FlightDeck Companion


The ATC chatter feature in FlightDeck Companion allows you to play various ATC chatter files based
on geographic location, the flight phase you are in, and even on the frequency tuned on the COM1
radio.
Be aware that FDC doesn't include any ATC chatter files when installed. Instead, you should add your
own sound files suiting the area in which you fly. To learn more about adding ATC chatter files and
the folders to use, click here.
Note! The geographic area you are flying in is determined by the settings you make in the FDC options
panel, and not your current geographical position in Flight Simulator. This means that if you specify in
FDC that your departure airport is in Europe (West), but then take off from an airport in Australia,
you will still hear the ATC chatter that is located in the Europe_(West) folder due to the FDC setting.

Configuring ATC chatter


To turn on ATC chatter and set the time interval between playing files:
1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Misc Items.
3. Select the ATC (radio) chatter ambience option to turn on ATC chatter.
4. Specify the time interval FDC will pause between playing each file. The interval is given in
seconds.
5. The options below, Enroute 1, 2, and 3 , Local ATC Only, as well as Dept and Dest will be
discussed in detail below. Select the options that apply to your flight.
6. Click Save Changes and Close to exit the panel.

Geographical areas
You can sort your ATC chatter files based on the region in which they are recorded. FDC supports the
following geographical areas: Western US, Central US, Eastern US, Latin America, South America,
Canada & Alaska, Europe (West), Europe (East), Middle East/Asia, Africa, Pacific, and South Pacific.
You should organize the ATC chatter files according to these geographic areas, as well as for the
flight phases (as described below).
When you specify your flight, you can specify the geographic area for your departure and destination
airport, as well as for three different enroute areas. This allows you to perform long haul flights that
cover various geographic areas, and still get the correct ATC chatter for the area you are currently
flying over. While the ATC chatter for the airports are controlled by the various ATC chatter phases
described below, you manually control which of the three enroute areas to play by hitting the
shortcut key Ctrl-Shift-X. FDC will start using files for the geographic area specified in Enroute
1, and advance to the next when you hit the shortcut. This also means that if you perform a flight
within one geographic area only, you obviously don't have to specify the two other enroute areas.

ATC chatter and flight phases


Within each of the geographic areas described above, FDC contains seven different ATC phase folders.
The ATC phases are quite similar to the flight phases, although the ATC phases overlap the flight
phases slightly. The ATC phases are designed to be as realistic as possible. The various phases are
shown in the table below.

Phase Criteria
Departure This phase is active from the start of your flight.
Ground
Departure This phase is activated as soon as FDC has decided you are ready for takeoff.
Tower
Departure This phase is activated as soon as you climb through 3000 ft.
Enroute This phase is activated as soon as you climb through 7000 ft.
Note! The Enroute phase is divided into three different sections, where you
can specify different geographic areas. You advance through these sections
hitting Ctrl-Shift-X.

Approach This phase is activated as soon as you descend through 7000 ft.
Arrival This phase is activated as soon as you descend through 3000 ft.
Tower
Arrival This phase is activated just prior to the Taxi to Terminal cabin announcement
Ground is being made.

As you see from the table above, you only have to advance manually through the various Enroute
sections. The other ATC phases are activated automatically based on events in Flight Simulator.
Technically, all files copied to the appropriate folder, such as AtcChatter\Africa\Approach , will be
played when you are in the corresponding ATC phase above. Thus, the folder mentioned should
contain ATC chatter files that should be played when you are in the Approach phase to an African
airport.
ATC chatter based on radio frequency
Although the geographic sections described above will probably provide more than sufficient
functionality and variation for most users, FDC provides one more level of ATC chatter customisation.
This feature allows you to actually tune your COM1 radio to an "ATC Channel", so to speak, and only
have files played belonging to this exact frequency.
You achieve this by creating a new folder in the appropriate geographical area and flight phase
folder. This folder should should have the five digits of the radio frequency as its name. If you are to,
say, include departure ATC chatter for the tower at London Heathrow airport at frequency 118.70,
you should create a new folder under FDC\AtcChatter\Europe_(West)\Departer_tower, and name it
11870. You should then copy the ATC chatter files that you have recorded in this folder. When you are
ready to start your flight, you should set the geographic area for the departure airport to Europe
(West), and tune your COM1 radio to the 118.70 frequency. You will soon listen to ATC chatter from
the tower at London Heathrow airport!
Note! The folder names for ATC chatter controlled by frequency should consist of five digits.
You should leave out the period (.). Files for the frequency of 118.95 should be placed in a
folder named 11895.

Local ATC chatter


As you see above, the ATC chatter functionality in FDC is pretty extensive. If you are frequently flying
a GA type aircraft in your local area (for example in the vicinity of your local airport), this
functionality is a little overwhelming. FDC therefore also supports a local ATC chatter functionality,
allowing you to quickly install your favourite ATC chatter files and have FDC play them all the time
while you perform your flight. You simply copy your ATC chatter files to the root ATC chatter folder in
FDC. Select the Local ATC Chatter Only checkbox in the Misc Items panel in FDC. FDC now ignores all
the advanced options described above, and will only play the files located in the root folder.

Adding ATC Chatter and Ambience Sound Files


Fligthdeck Companion comes equipped with a large set of ambience sound files that you can start
using directly. There are, however, many good sources for ambience sound files on the Internet, and
you will most likely feel the desire to add your own sound files to the ambience in Flight Simulator.
You might want to add ATC chatter originating from your own geographical area, to make your local
flights as realistic as possible! FDC even allows you to associate ATC chatter with COM Radio
frequencies, enabling you to hear ATC chatter associated with the controllers with whom you are
actually communicating.
Note! Adding your own sound files to FDC requires you to manually copy files into the folder
structure of FDC. You can read more on how to copy files using Windows Explorer by
searching for copying files in Windows Help System (which you will find on the Start button).

To add sound files to FDC


Since the various ambience sound files for the various ambience types and categories reside in
different folders, you should only copy one type of file at the time.
Note! To be able to return to a "clean" installation of FDC, we would recommend you to take
a backup copy of the AtcChatter and Ambience folders (and all of their content) prior to
copying your own files into the folders.

1. Open Windows Explorer, and browse to the location of your new sound files.
2. Copy the files you wish to import in FDC.
3. Browse to the folder where you installed FDC (by default this will be C:\Program Files\FDC).
4. Open the folder corresponding to the ambience type and category to which you wish to add sound
files. The folder structure of FDC is explained in detail in the table below.
5. Paste the files you copied in step 2.
6. Repeat steps 2. through 5. for each of the ambience types and categories to which you wish to
import new sound files.
The files will be available to FDC immediately.

Removing sound files from FDC


If you should, for some reason, wish to remove the ambience files you have added to FDC, just delete
your files from the folder structure above. Alternatively, restore the backup copy you made of the
AtcChatter and Ambience folders.

Ambience and ATC Chatter Folders


The folders for the various ambience types and categories are shown in the table below. All paths are
given relative to the installation path where you installed FDC. If you used the default path it will be
C:\Program Files\FDC.
Note! The subfolder structure for each geographic area of ATC chatter is identical, and we
will only show one of these below. Similarly , we will only show the location of one
(example) frequency folder, but you can obviously add as many such folders that you
require.

ATC Chatter Sound Files


Folder Description
\AtcChatter The root folder of the ATC Chatter sound files. Files that
are copied here will be played when the option Local
ATC only is selected in the Misc Items panel.
\AtcChatter\Africa These folders contains sound files for the corresponding
\AtcChatter\Canada_&_Alaska geographic areas. No files should be copied directly to
\AtcChatter\Central_US these folders, but rather to one of the subfolders shown

\AtcChatter\...\...\XXXXX An optional folder containing sound files for a given radio
frequency for a given ATC phase in a given geographic
area. The name of the folder should be derived from the
radio frequency by using the five digits of the frequency,
leaving out decimal separators. The files in a folder like
this is played when these criteria are met:
1. The given geographic area is selected in FDC.
2. The given ATC phase is active
3. The given frequency is tuned on COM1.
Example: Files located in the folder \AtcChatter\Europe_
(West)\Departure\12345 will be played when the
departure airport area is set to Europe (West), the
aircraft is climbing and has passed 3000 ft (where the
Departure ATC phase is activated), and the COM1 radio is
tuned to frequency 123.45.

Add your own aircraft to FlightDeck Companion
By using the built -in Performance Editor and Checklist Editor, you can add your own aircraft to
FlightDeck Companion. A performance file contains data for the aircraft, related to flap settings,
speed tables, and so on. The checklist file contains the definitions for the checklists to be used by
your aircraft. There is a wide selection of checklist items to select from, so you should be able to
create checklists for most aircraft available!

About the checklist editor


Using the built-in Checklist Editor you can add the checklists of your own favourite aircraft to FDC.
Whether you prefer flying large jets or smaller turbo-props, you should have no problem creating the
checklists you need to make your flight as realistic as possible!
When you have successfully created checklists for your favourite aircraft, you should consider moving
on to create a Performance File for your aircraft as well. This will customize all of the FDC
functionality to perfectly suit your aircraft, including speed calls, flap settings, etc.

About the Performance Editor


The Performance Editor enables you to take full advantage of all the features in FlightDeck
Companion for your favourite aircraft. Using the Performance Editor you can add all vital information
on your aircraft. Combined with the custom checklists you have created for your aircraft, you will be
able to experience a flight that is as close to the "real thing" as possible!
You can create a new performance file from scratch, or you can base your work on one of the existing
templates. You can edit your files later, allowing you to tweak the files to their optimal performance.
Once you have successfully created a performance file, you can select the aircraft on the Select
Aircraft panel. Your own aircraft will appear at the bottom of the list, with the prefix User:.
Note! If you have created checklists to be used with your aircraft, make sure you select
them under Checklists on the Select Aircraft panel before connecting to Flight Simulator, as
the checklists will not be selected automatically.
In the four topics discussing the Performance Editor below, we will also show you how to create a
performance file for the default Boeing 737 -400 in Flight Simulator. Although the 737-400 is already
supported by FDC, this should give you a feeling of the steps required to define performance data for
your favourite aircraft.

Creating a new checklist


Building checklists in FlightDeck Companion requires four steps:
1. Select the checklists to define, and select the calls to be used for each checklist.
2. Sort the order of the checklist calls.
3. Select the crew member reading the checklist and replying to the checklist call. You are also
allowed to alter the reply that is made.
4. Save the new checklists.
Each step is performed in its own page in the Checklist Editor panel of FDC, except for the final step,
which is done automatically when you've finished the three first steps.. Each step is described below.

Opening the Checklist Editor in FDC


1. In the FDC main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Checklist Editor.
The Selections panel
When you set out to create a new set of checklists for an aircraft, you can either start with a blank
set of checklists, edit a previously created set of checklists, or you can use one of the default
checklists as checklist templates. To edit a previously created checklist set, click Edit and select the
checklist set to edit. To base your checklist set on a template, click Templates and select the
checklist set to use as a template.

Note! You can easily clear all the selections you have made by selecting the top entry of the
Checklist Section drop down box. The entry is named Clear ALL Sections. You will be
warned before FDC clears all the selections, to prevent you from accidentally resetting your
work!
To select calls for your checklist, follow the procedure below.
1. Select the checklist you want to edit in the drop down box. Options are Pre-start, Before
Pushback, Before Start, After Start, Taxi, Before Takeoff, After Takeoff, Climb, Descent,
Approach, After Landing, and finally Parking checks. As the selection of the drop down box
changes, the calls you can select will change in the list below.
2. Select the calls you wish to be made by selecting their options in the list. Note that if you select
one or more calls in the list, the main calls (at the top and bottom marked with >>> and <<<) are
selected automatically. This indicates that the checklist is activated, and that the opening call
(such as "Pre -start Checklist") and finishing call (such as "Pre-start Checklist Complete") will be
made. You should also note that the list contains calls for both jet and turbo-prop aircraft, so be
careful to select calls that are supported by your aircraft!
3. You can use the shortcut buttons Select All or Clear All to select or clear all the selections for
the selected checklist.
4. To play a checklist call, select it in the list and click Play Selection.
5. Repeat the steps above for all the checklists you wish to include in your set.
6. When you've finished selecting calls, click Next Page to move to the next panel in the editor. You
can always move back to select more calls later, if you wish to!

The Arrange panel


The Arrange panel allows you to arrange the order in which checklist calls are made. To change the
order of calls:
1. Select the call that you wish to move up or down in the list.
2. Click the Up button to move the call up, or click the Down button to move the call down the list.
Note that you can only move the call within the checklist; you are not allowed to move a call
between checklists.
3. To play a checklist call, select it in the list and click Play Selection.
4. When you have finished reordering the checklist calls, click Next Page to move to the next panel
in the editor. Alternatively you can click Previous Page to move to the Selections panel to select
more calls for your checklists.

The Voice Selection panel


The Voice Selection panel allows you to specify which crew member would read the checklist, and
which member should check the item and reply to the call. You can also specify the reply that is
given to each item, should the default selection be inappropriate for your aircraft.
The panel identifies the crew members by three abbreviations. PF means Pilot Flying, and will in FDC
identify the Captain You of the flight crew. In a real flight, however, the crew members will often
take turns flying, and the roles will change according to who is actually holding the yoke. PNF means
Pilot Not Flying, and will in FDC identify the First Officer (Co-pilot) of the crew. ENG means Engineer,
and identifies the engineer of a three-member crew.
To alter the members responsible for calls, and alter replies:
1. Locate the row for the call that you wish to alter in the list.
2. The list contains five columns; Checklist Call, Int, Who, Reply, and Who. To alter the person
reading the checklist call, double-click the first Who column, and select the crew member in the
drop-down list.
Note! The Int column indicates whether the checklist item is interactive or not (see below).
3. The Reply column contains the reply that is supposed to be given to checklist call. To change it,
double-click it and select the reply you wish from the drop -down list.
4. The last Who column shows the crew member making the reply call. To alter the member
replying, double-click the entry, and select the crew member in the drop-down list.
5. Repeat the steps above for all the checklist calls that you wish to change.

Interactive checklist calls


The second column in the Voice Selection panel indicates whether the checklist call is interactive or
not. If an Y(es) appears, the call is interactive. The checklist item will be checked in Flight Simulator
for the correct setting. If the setting is wrong, a negative response is given. In this case you must
correct the item, and resume the checklist by hitting Ctrl-Space on your keyboard.
You can turn off all checklist interactivity by turning off the Interactive Checklist Master Switch on
the Select Aircraft options panel.
Note! If you change the reply for an interactive checklist call, this single call will not be
checked in Flight Simulator anymore. However, this doesn't affect the other interactive calls
in your checklist.

Note! The interactive checklist feature is not available in Flight Simulator 98! All calls will
be audible, but their settings will not be checked.

Saving your checklists


When you have finished creating your checklists, click Finish on the Voice Selection panel of the
Checklist Editor. You will be prompted to enter a name for your checklist. Your new checklist will
now become available in the Select Aircraft panel of FDC, under checklists. Your own checklists will
be preceded with the text User:, to distinguish them from the standard FDC checklists.

Specifying aircraft type and configuration


Adding your aircraft to FDC is divided into four steps, each step being separated into its own panel in
the Performance Editor. The various steps are described in detail below. Once you have opened the
Editor, you are allowed to either add a new performance file, edit an existing file, or delete an
existing file. If you choose to add a new file to FDC, you can either make a new file from scratch, or
you can use one of the existing files as a template.
We recommend you to open one of the default performance files of FDC to gain a better
understanding of the data contained in a performance file. This also gives you a hint of what data you
need to gather for your own aircraft to make your performance accurate enough!
Let us also point out that the data entered in the Performance Editor doesn't affect the performance
of the aircraft in Flight Simulator; it is solely used to synchronize the events in FDC properly to your
aircraft's performance in Flight Simulator.
Note! You can of course change the standard performance files in FDC. If you have made
changes to the standard files, you can reset them to their default values by clicking Restore
Defaults available on the Performance File Editor panel.
Opening the Performance Editor
1. In the FDC Main window, click Options.
2. In the Main Options panel, click Performance Editor.
3. Select whether you wish to Add a file, Edit a file, or Delete a file. You will be prompted to
identify the file you require.
4. If you select to Add a file, you will be asked whether you want to start with a blank file, or
whether you want to use a template.

Specifying your aircraft's type and configuration


Note! Once you have moved on to the next panel, you will have to exit the Performance
Editor to make changes to the settings on this panel!
The first panel in the Performance Editor (PE) allows you to select the flap settings to use for your
aircraft. Make sure that your flap settings are done correctly, as you will not be able to go back and
edit them later without closing the PE first! If your aircraft supports other flap settings than the ones
listed, you should select the flap settings that are closest.
Note! Make sure that the number of flap settings corresponds to the number of flap settings
supported by your aircraft and its panel. If the number of settings differ, FDC will
malfunction!
This screen also allows you to select the flap setting that is normally used at takeoff. You should also
select the type of aircraft you are adding. Valid aircraft types are GA (General Aircraft, such as
Cessnas, Beechcraft Baron58, etc.) and non -GA (airliners and other aircraft, such as 737, A320, etc.).
Finally, you should specify whether your aircraft has retractable gear or not.
Note! Make sure that the gear option is set correctly. Since FDC will detect the position of
the gear and there is no way for you to raise a fixed gear, you will not be able to correct a
negative response as a result of a Gear Up call.
Once you're finished, click Continue to move to the next page in the editor.

Creating a performance file for the Boeing 737-400 (part I)


To create a performance file for the default Boeing 737-400 of Flight Simulator, follow the steps
outlined below. This procedure can then be applied to your favourite aircraft, provided you have
access to the data required by the PE.
1. Click Options in the main window of FDC, and then click Performance Editor.
2. Click Add File on the first panel of the PE. This will add a new performance file to FDC.
3. Since we will start entering data for the Boeing 737-400 from scratch, click Blank Template in
the second panel.
Note! If you wish to view the data rather than adding them yourself, you can click Use Sample
Data, and then select the Boeing 737 -400 in the dialog box.
4. Select the following flap settings for the aircraft at the top of the panel:
Flap 1, Flap 2, Flap 10, Flap 15, Flap 25, Flap 30, Flap 40
Note that the number of flap settings corresponds to the number of flap positions available in
Flight Simulator.
5. Since the normal flap setting for the 737 during takeoff is Flap 5,, select Flap 5 under Normal
takeoff Flap setting.
6. The 737-400 is an airliner (not categorized as a General Aircraft), and you should therefore,
select non -GA under Aircraft Type.
7. Select Retractable under Gear Type, as the 737-400 features retractable gear.
8. Click Continue to go to the next panel of the Performance Editor.
Specifying takeoff data for your aircraft
You will find that the third panel of the Performance Editor has three different sections. The takeoff
data of your aircraft is available when you click Takeoff at the top of the panel. The other two
sections are Cruise and Landing data. In addition to these three sections, you can also enter a name
for the aircraft as well as specifying its crew size.

Title and crew


At the top of the Editor area you can enter the title of the performance file. This is the title that will
appear in the Select Aircraft panel. The title can differ from the file name, so use the title to
properly identify your aircraft!
Also on the top of the Editor area, you can enter the number of crew members of your aircraft. Valid
values are 2 or 3, although you can enter any number you wish (higher numbers are treated as 3). If
your cockpit crew includes an engineer, enter 3 in the box. Otherwise, enter 2.

Takeoff speed data


The Takeoff Data panel allows you to enter or adjust the takeoff data elements for your aircraft. The
top section contains a table summarizing the takeoff speed data. The table below describes the
various columns in this table.
You can add, insert, or delete rows in the table. To add a row at the bottom, click Add. To insert a
row below the selected row (shown with bold numbers), click Ins. To delete the selected row, click
Del, and click Yes to confirm the operation. If no rows are selected, the bottom row will be deleted.

Column Description Value Required


Weight The weight of the aircraft Weight x Yes
The weight of the aircraft in 1000lbs. FDC retrieves the 1000 lbs.
weight of the aircraft in Flight Simulator, and uses this
weight to decide which speed data row to use. A given row is (131
used for all weights between the row's own weight value and equals a
up to the weight given in the higher row. Thus, if your data weight of
table contains data for the weights of '200', '400', and '600', 131,000
FDC will use the '200' row for weights between '200' and '399', lbs)
the '400' row for weights between '400' and '599', and the '600'
row for weights over '600'. The rows should be sorted in
descending order. If you want a row to be valid for all
weights, simply enter '000' in the column (it is generally a
good advice to let the last row in the table read '000').
Note! Entering data with short weight intervals will make a
more detailed and accurate performance file for your
aircraft.
V1 The takeoff decision speed Speed in Yes
The takeoff decision speed in knots. When the aircraft knots.
exceeds this speed, it may not be possible to stop the aircraft
on the runway in case of a rejected takeoff (RTO).
VR The rotation speed Speed in Yes
The rotation speed in knots. This is the speed at which the knots
pilot raises the nose to lift off the runway during the takeoff
roll. VR should be greater than or equal to V1. Vr >= V1
V2 Minimum takeoff safety speed Speed in Yes
The minimum takeoff safety speed in knots. This is the knots
minimum safe flying speed should an engine fail immediately
after takeoff. V2 should be greater than or equal to VR. V2 >= VR
F0 The speed to call 'Flaps Up' This is the 'Clean Speed' for the Speed in Yes
aircraft, which is the maximum speed the aircraft should fly knots
with flaps extended. Shortly before this speed is obtained,
the Flaps Up call is made. F0 > 0
F1 - The speed at which to make flap call Speed in No
F40 The speed at which the corresponding flap call should be knots
made. As an example, if you enter 100 in the F5 column (if it
exists for your aircraft), the Flap 5 call will be made just F0 > F1 >
before the speed of the aircraft reaches 100 knots. There is F2 > ... >
one column for each flap position selected for the aircraft. F40
The values should decrease from left to right (higher speed
for less flap detente). '000'
Note! If you don't want a call to made for a flap setting disables
during takeoff, you can enter '000' in the corresponding the call
column.
Pitch The pitch angel required at rotate. Pitch No
Some airline procedures call the pitch required at rotate angle in
during takeoff. This is done particularly for the Boeing 747- degrees
200 (Classic) series of aircraft. If you enter a value here, the
corresponding value will be included in the rotate call. If the '000'
value is 018, for example, the call sequence at takeoff will be disables
"V1, Rotate 18 degrees, V2". If you leave it at 0, the call the call
sequence at takeoff will be "V1, Rotate, V2".

Normal takeoff flap setting


Directly below the weight and speed table you can select the flap setting that will normally be used
at takeoff, by selecting the option that corresponds to the flap setting to be used (the options
correspond to flap columns in the table).

Speed reduction table


These data are not required
At the very bottom of the panel you will find a weight to speed reduction table that is used to decide
when the V-calls are made if a higher flap setting than normal is used during takeoff. The weight to
speed reduction table is similar to the larger table above, and the weight column is interpreted by
FDC in the same way, and weights should be entered in descending order. Taking off using a higher
flap setting than normal will force the V1, VR, and V2 calls to occur at a lower speed then normal.
This speed is calculated by subtracting the correct speed reduction value from the normal V-speeds
entered. The columns in the table are described below.

Column Description Value Required


Weight The weight of the aircraft Weight x No
The weight of the aircraft in 1000lbs. FDC retrieves the 1000 lbs.
weight of the aircraft in Flight Simulator, and uses this (131
weight to decide which speed reduction data row to use. A equals a
given row is used for all weights between the row's own weight of
weight value and the weight given in the higher row. Thus, 131,000
if your data table contains data for the weights of '200', lbs)
'400', and '600', FDC will use the '200' row for weights
between '200' and '399', the '400' row for weights between
'400' and '599', and the '600' row for weights over '600'. The
rows should be sorted in descending order. If you want a
row to be valid for all weights, simply enter '000' in the
column (it is generally a good advice to let the last row in
the table read '000').
Reduction The Vref speed reduction Speed in No
A speed reduction in knots. If you take off using a higher knots.
flap setting than the normal flap setting, the V-speeds will
be reduced by this value, making the V-calls appear
earlier. (See example below.)

As an example, the Boeing 737-400 will normally use Flap 5 for takeoff. If the aircraft weighs 121,000
lbs, the V1, VR, and V2 calls will be made at 137, 140, and 149 knots respectively. If you take off
using Flap 10 rather than Flap 5, the speed reduction table indicates that the Vref speeds should be
reduced by 10 knots. In this case, the V1, VR, and V2 calls will be made at 127, 130, and 139 knots
respectively.

Creating a performance file for the Boeing 737-400 (part II)


1. Enter Boeing 737-400 in the text box at the top of the panel. This is the name of the aircraft that
will appear in the Select Aircraft drop-down box of the Select Aircraft panel.
2. Enter 2 in the Crew text box. This populates the cockpit of the aircraft with a Captain and a First
Officer.
3. The large table at the top of the panel will contain 14 columns. Although the default Boeing 737-
400 performance file contains very detailed data for the aircraft, we will only enter three rows in
the table, for various weights of the aircraft. The values are given in the table below:

W. V1 VR V2 F0 F1 F2 F5 F10 F15 F25 F30 F40 Pitch


154 158 162 168 235 000 000 215 205 190 185 180 175 000
121 137 140 149 235 000 000 215 205 190 185 180 175 000
000 112 115 130 235 000 000 215 205 190 185 180 175 000

Add rows to the table by clicking Add, and double-click each cell to enter a new value.
Note that the weight appears in descending order, with higher weights at the top of the table.
The first row, starting with 154, is used when the aircraft weighs 154,000 lbs or more. The second
row, starting with 121, is used when the aircraft weighs between 121,000 and 154,000 lbs. The
last row, starting with 000, is used when the aircraft weighs less than 121,000 lbs. Note also that
the V2 is greater than VR, and that VR is greater than V1. The flap call speeds decrease from left
to right, making F0 greater than F5, F5 greater than F10, and so on. The F1 and F2 calls will not
be made, since their speed is set to '000'.
4. Notice that the normal takeoff flap setting is the same as specified on the previous panel. The
setting should be F5. If it isn't, select the option beneath the F5 column now.
5. If you take off in the 737 using a higher flap setting than the normal F5 setting, the V -speeds
should be reduced by 10 knots regardless of the aircraft's weight. Since the same speed reduction
of 10 knots is used for all weights, enter '000' in the Weight column and '10' in the Reduction
column, as shown below.
Weight Reduction
0 10

Note that since the weight is entered as '0', the same V-speed reduction will be used regardless
of the weight of the aircraft.
Specifying cruise data for your aircraft
The cruise data section is available by clicking the Cruise button on the top of the Editor area. The
cruise data are less complex than the takeoff data. The table is interpreted by FDC in the same way
as the takeoff data table. The columns of the cruise data table are explained below.

Column Description Value Required


Weight The weight of the aircraft Weight x 1000 Yes
The weight of the aircraft in 1000 lbs. FDC uses this lbs.

first flap call from the Captain. This speed should be less CS < IAS
than the IAS.

In addition to the information in the cruising speed table, you must also enter the maximum cruise
speed of your aircraft, as this is required for FDC to work properly. You can enter this in either Mach
or Knots, leaving the other value at '0'.

Box Description Value Required

Creating a performance file for the Boeing 737-400 (part III)


1. Click Cruise to open the cruise data section.
2. In the table, enter the cruise data presented below.

Weight IAS FL CS
145 275 310 240
110 251 350 230
000 240 370 225

Add rows to the table by clicking Add, and double-click each cell to enter a new value.
Note that the weight appears in descending order, with higher weights at the top of the table.
Note also that the IAS (Indicated Air Speed) is higher than the CS (Clean Speed).
3. Finally, you should enter the maximum cruise speed for the 737. Enter 0.76 in the Mach text box,
leaving the knots text box unchanged at '0'. Alternatively, you could have entered the speed in
knots, leaving the Mach speed unchanged at '0'.

Specifying landing data for your aircraft

Landing speed data


The landing data are available by clicking Landing on the top of the Editor area. In the same manner
as the takeoff data, the landing data contains a table of weight and speed data for the available flap
settings of the aircraft. The columns of the landing data table are explained below.

Column Description Value Required


Weight The weight of the aircraft Weight x Yes
FDC uses this weight to decide which speed data to use. The 1000 lbs.

F1 - The speed at which to make flap call Speed in No
F40 The speed at which the corresponding flap call should be knots
made. As an example, if you enter 100 in the F5 column (if F0 > F1 >
it exists for your aircraft), the Flap 5 call will be made just F2 > ... >
before the speed of the aircraft reaches 100 knots. There is F40
one column for each flap position selected for the aircraft.
The values should decrease from left to right (higher speed '000'
for less flap detente). disables
Note! If you don't want a call to made for a flap setting given call
during landing, you can enter '000' in the corresponding
column.

The Gear Down call


Immediately below the table, you can select at which flap position you would like to hear the Gear
call by selecting the option beneath the corresponding column. Alternatively, you can enter an
altitude at which to make the call. Setting the 'Gear Down' Altitude to '0' makes the Gear Down call
occur with the selected flap call. Setting the altitude (different from '0') makes the Gear Down call
occur as you descend below that altitude.

Method Description Value Required


Flap Trigger 'Gear Down' call with selected flap call Yes (one
position Select the option corresponding to the flap call with option is
radio which you wish to make the Gear Down call during always
buttons approach. Although this option must always be set, selected)
you can override it by entering a value in the
Altitude box.
'Gear The altitude at which to make the Gear Down call Altitude No
Down' If the value is '0' the Gear Down call occurs with the in feet
Altitude selected flap option. If you wish to make the Gear
Down call occur at a given altitude rather than
following a given flap setting, you can enter the
altitude in this box.
Let's take the Boeing 737 as an example. Normally, the Gear Down call is made when the Flap 25 call
is made. This is achieved by entering '0' in the 'Gear Down' Altitude box, and select the option
beneath the F25 column. If you would rather hear the call when you pass 2500 ft during your descent,
simply enter '2500' in the 'Gear Down' Altitude box.

Flap calls
Just like the Gear Down call, flap calls can be triggered in two ways. They can either be based on
airspeed (IAS), and will in that case use the data entered in the table above. Alternatively, the call
can be made based on the altitude of your aircraft. In the lower section of the panel, you can select
the last flap setting that you want to be called based on the airspeed by selecting the corresponding
option. The remaining flap calls will be based on the airspeed above, but will occur at the latest
when passing the altitudes entered in the table on the lower left of the panel. The number of rows in
the table will automatically be updated based on your selection.

Column Description Value Required


Flap The flap setting Auto
A row will appear for each flap setting that is called
based on altitude.
Altitude The minimum altitude at which to make the flap call Altitude in Yes
Enter the altitude in feet at which to make the given flap feet
call.

If we study the 737 again, the Flap 15 call is the last one that is made based on the indicated air
speed alone. Thus, the option beneath the F15 column is selected. The rest of the flap callsFlap 25,
Flap 30, and Flap 40are made based on both the speed and the aircraft's altitude. The flap calls will
therefore occur at the latest when the specified altitude is reached.
Note! This functionality ensures that you don't fly your aircraft at low speeds or at low
altitudes without extending the flaps to the required position. The call is made as the
indicated air speed drops below the specified speed or when the aircraft passes the
specified altitude, whichever comes first.

Saving your performance file


When you're finished entering data in the Performance Editor, you save your file by clicking Save. If
you have added a new file to the system, you will be prompted for a new filename before the save is
performed. You will be warned if the file already exists.

Adding a picture for your aircraft


You can add a picture for your new aircraft as well. This picture will be displayed in the Main Options
panel when your aircraft is selected. The image must be located in the Pics folder of the FDC
installation, and must be saved with the same name as the performance file you created. If, say, the
performance file is named MyAircraft, you should save the image as MyAircraft.gif. Although FDC will
display a larger image, we suggest that you use an image size of approximately 300 x 110 pixels.
If you don't include a custom picture for your aircraft, the default image stating that no image could
be found for this aircraft will be displayed.
Creating a performance file for the Boeing 737-400 (part IV)
1. Click Landing to open the landing data section.
2. In the table, enter the landing data presented below.

W. F1 F2 F5 F10 F15 F25 F30 F40


154 235 000 225 215 187 168 159 155

000 165 000 158 151 133 117 111 109

Add rows to the table by clicking Add, and double-click each cell to enter a new value.
Note that the weight appears in descending order, with higher weights at the top of the table.
Note also that the speed decreases for each flap call being made. The F2 call will not be made,
since its speed is set to '000'.
3. Since the Gear Down call should occur together with the Flap 25 call, select the option directly
beneath the F25 column. Leave the value in the 'Gear Down' Altitude box at '0', or otherwise the
Gear Down call will be made at that altitude instead.
4. The Flap 15 call should be made depending on the air speed of the aircraft, but all subsequent
flap calls should be made dependent on the altitude of the aircraft as well. To achieve this,
select the option at the bottom of the panel that is beneath the F15 column.
5. In the flap to altitude table at the lower left of the panel, enter the minimum altitudes at which
to call the remaining flap positions F25, F30, and F40. The values should be 2100, 1800, and 1500
respectively. Double-click each cell to enter the value.
6. Click Save to save the performance file. You will be asked to enter a suitable file name.
Note! Since the default performance file for the Boeing 737-400 is much more detailed than the
one we have created in this example, we suggest that you skip this step, and close the
Performance Editor without saving.
7. Click Close to close the Performance Editor.
Congratulations on finishing your first performance file in FlightDeck Companion!
About FlightDeck Companion ControllerX
Have you ever felt the need for more buttons on your flight controller? FlightDeck Companion
features a ground-breaking new controller extension that allows you to assign different actions to
your controller buttons depending on the flight mode you're in. This effectively means that you can
have one controller set-up while you are preparing your flight at the gate, another when your aircraft
is taxiing to the runway, and yet another when you are on your takeoff run down the runway.
Ultimately, FDC ControllerX allows your 5 button joystick to have a total of 50 different functions
during your flight!
The key to ControllerX is the Controller Modes, which are synchronized with the flight phases in FDC.
If you are not yet familiar with the flight phases, please read more about this here.
Note! You can assign any command in Flight Simulator to your controller's buttons by first assigning a
keystroke to the command in Flight Simulator, and then assign that keystroke to a button using the
ControllerX.
Note! Make sure that the button assignments for your controller are removed in Flight
Simulator before you assign new commands using FDC, otherwise you will get both
commands when clicking your controller's buttons!
Setting up your own controller assignments using FDC requires two steps. First, you must detect your
buttons using the Detect Controller panel. Second, you assign commands to the detected buttons
using the Controller Assignments panel. These steps are described in the topics listed below.
You don't have to assign actions to all the buttons on your controller in FDC. If you would like to, you
can let FDC control the assignments for one or two buttons, and leave the rest of the buttons to
assignments in Flight Simulator.
If you want to change your ControllerX settings later, you don't have to go through the controller
detection again. This is only necessary the first time you are detecting the buttons on your controller!

About the Controller Modes


The controller modes in FlightDeck Companion correspond (directly) to the flight phases, and they are
controlled in the same way. The ten modes are:
1. At the Gate
2. Taxi to Runway
3. Takeoff
4. Climb
5. Cruise
6. Descent
7. Final
8. Landed
9. Taxi to Park
10. Park
To read more about how FDC decides what mode to use, click here.
If you don't want to utilize the controller modes in FDC, or if you don't need to make special
assignments for one or more modes, simply leave them untouched. The assignment made for a
controller button will be used until a new command is assigned to the button. The example below
illustrates how the assignment of commands to controller buttons works in various modes.
Example of how assignments and modes work together
Let's assume that our controller has three buttons, and that we assign various commands to each
button. However, each button is not assigned a different command in each controller mode. The
table below shows the controller mode, the assignments made for each mode, and finally the
command that will be used for the given button in Flight Simulator at any time during the flight. The
example assumes that you have removed all button assignments from Flight Simulator! To alter your
button assignments in Flight Simulator, select Controls on the Options menu in Flight Simulator, and
select Assignments on the submenu. Select the button assignments in the list, and click Delete
joystick assignment. Make sure that all button assignments are removed before starting your flight!
Note! The example below assumes that the C key is assigned to the Cycle OBS, NAV, COM,
ADF command in Flight Simulator.

As you can see from the table above, the assignment will persist until a new button assignment is
made in a higher mode. By combining key assignments in Flight Simulator with button assignments in
FDC, you can greatly improve the usefulness of your flight controller!

Detecting controller buttons


The first time you use ControllerX, you have to detect the buttons on your controller first.
Note! Detecting controller buttons requires FlightDeck Companion to be connected to Flight
Simulator.
To detect the controller buttons, follow the steps below:
1. Start Flight Simulator.
2. In the FDC main window, click Connect to establish a connection to FS.
3. When the connection is established, go back to the FDC main window (FS will usually be brought
to the front automatically when the connection is successfully established). Tip! Hit ALT-TAB on
your keyboard to switch between applications!
4. In the FDC main window, click Options.
5. In the Main options panel, click Detect Controller.
6. Click Activate to start detecting the controller input. You will be warned that any previous
controller detections will be lost.
For each button, repeat the following procedure:
a. Click a button on the controller.
b. Wait for FDC to detect the button.
c. Repeat these two steps for each button on your controller, make sure that FDC has
successfully detected the previous button before clicking another.

7. When FDC has detected all the controller buttons you wish to program, click Finish.
8. Click Close to close the panel.
After you have successfully detected your controller buttons, you can move on to assign your own key
assignments to each button.
Note! You don't have to detect all the buttons on your controller in FDC. If you like to, you
can let FDC control the assignments for one or two buttons, and leave the rest of the
buttons to assignments in Flight Simulator.

Assigning key strokes to your controller buttons


When you have successfully detected your controller buttons, you can assign key strokes to each
button for each controller mode. Remember that you can revisit the Controller Assignments panel
later without having to go through the controller detection procedure again.
To assign key strokes to your controller buttons:
1. In the Main Options panel, click Controller Assignments.
2. Select the controller mode in the Available Modes drop-down list.
3. Select the controller button in the Button Assignment list or simply press the controller button
itself, then hit they key you wish to assign to the button for this controller mode.
4. Select the checkbox in front of the button to make the key a repeating key. This is necessary for
commands where you would normally hold the button down in FS, for example for the brake key.
An example of a non -repeating command would be the Gear up and down key.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each controller button in the list.
Note! A button assignment will be used for that button until replaced by another assignment. If
you want a button to have perform the same command throughout the flight, simply assign the
key strokes to the button for the first mode, and leave it undefined for the rest of the modes.
6. Repeat 2 to 5 for each controller mode.
7. Click Finish to save your button assignments. If you wish, you can always come back and change
the assignments.
8. Click Close to leave the panel, and Close again to return to the FDC Main Window.
You are now finished assigning key strokes to your controller buttons. Have a nice flight!

Airbus A320 - Checklists and Performance Data

About the aircraft


The Airbus A320 made its maiden flight on 22 February, 1987.
The aircraft is a short/medium. range single-aisle twin
turbofan commercial transport. It was among the first airliners
to use fly-by-wire control for normal operations. It had several
inovative features, including an advanced wing with drag-
reducing delta-shaped wingtip fences, centralized
maintenance system, and composite materials for major Airbus A320 for Flight Simulator
sections of the main structure. The cockpit featured side-stick by Mike Stone
controls replacing the control columns. The Airbus A320 is a
joint effort by several of Europe's aircraft manufacturers.

Cessna 182RG Skylane - Checklists and Performance Data

About the aircraft


The Cessna 182 was the precedessor of the successful Cessna
180, and flew for the first time in 1956. The 182 featured a
tri-cycle landing gear, called Land-O-Matic. This made the
aircraft popular among pilots who didn't like taildraggers very
much. The production of the Cessna 182 halted in 1986, but
new production started again in 1996. The 182RG featured a
retractable gear, enabling the aircaft to cruise at higher Cessna 182RG Skylane

Cessna 182S Skylane - Checklists and Performance Data

About the aircraft


The Cessna 182 was the precedessor of the successful Cessna
180, and flew for the first time in 1956. The 182 featured a
tri-cycle landing gear, called Land-O-Matic. This made the
aircraft popular among pilots who didn't like taildraggers very
much. The production of the Cessna 182 halted in 1986, but
new production started again in 1996. The new 182S has a
fuel-injected engine, which eliminates the threat of Cessna 182S Skylane
carburetor icing. It also sports a three-bladed propeller.

Cessna 208 Caravan Amphibian - Checklists and Performance Data

About the aircraft


The Caravan was introduced in 1985, and it was constructed to
be a flexible aircraft capable of landing nearly anywhere. The
first 208 Caravan Amphibian was certified in 1986. While
Cessna started the construction by adapting the fuselage of a
207 Stationair, but this design was abandoned and the final
aircraft was more or less designed from scratch.The Amphibian
sports two large floats containing retractable landing gear, Cessna 208 Caravan Amphibian
justifying the name as the airplane can land on water and land
without reconfiguration. Each float sports water-tight
compartments that can be used for cargo, and retractable
water rudders that provide good maneuverability on the
water.

Performance data and checklists


The speeds in the tables are KIAS (knots indicated air speed). Weights are given in 1000lbs. 000
indicates the corresponding data should be used for all weights.

Douglas DC-3 - Checklists and Performance Data

About the aircraft


This is one of the truly outstanding aircraft of aviation history.
The DC-3 appeared as an enlarged DC-2, and was originally
intended for a sleeper aircraft for transcontinental routes. The
prototype made its maiden flight on 17 December 1935. The
type entered service on 25 June 1936.
The DC-3 was soon ordered in very larger numbers for both
civilian and military purposes. The aircraft was built in Douglas DC-3 for Flight Simulator
numerous versions adn with a wide range of engines. It was by Jan Visser
operated on wheels and skies, and one aircraft was even
equipped with floats. The more than 1900 DC-3s that were
supplied to the RAF were given the name Dakota, a name that
has been widely used.

Appendix 2: Available check list calls
The pages below summarize the various checklist calls available in FlightDeck Companion. The table
also indicates whether the checklist item will be checked by FDC. If the item is not set correctly, the
checklist will stop, and you will manually have to resume.
The tables indicate the default reply. These default replies might vary based on the aircraft,
however, as FDC uses slightly different replies depending on the aircraft type (prop, turbo-prop or
jet).
Note! You can specify a delay on the Select Aircraft panel that allows you to correct an
item without the checklist stopping. If you set this delay to, say, 2 seconds, you will have
two seconds to correct the called item before a negative response is given, and the checklist
must be resumed manually.
FDC contains the following checklists:
l Pre -start Checks
l Before Pushback Checks
l Before Starts Checks
l After Starts Checks
l Taxi Checks
l Before Takeoff Checks
l After Takeoff Checks
l Climb Checks
l Descent Checks
l Approach Checks
l After Landing Checks
l Parking Checks
