*** TEMPORARY NOTAM - 19-FEB-22 ***
THE FELIS 747-200 INCORPORATES THE LIBRADIO ADD-ON THAT DRAMATICALLY CHANGES THE WAY NAVAIDS ARE HANDLED. NAVIGATION INSTRUMENTS ARE NOW TIED TO FELIS DATAREFS, BUT THERE MAY BE SOME VARIANCE IN WHEN INDICATIONS DISAPPEAR COMPARED TO THE SIM. THAT SHOULDN'T CAUSE ANY PRACTICAL PURPOSES, BUT IF THERE ARE ANY MORE SERIOUS ISSUES PLEASE LET ME KNOW. WHILST THE CONCEPT FOR LIBRADIO IS A GOOD IDEA, IT'S BEEN TAKEN A FEW STEPS TOO FAR......
You'll find instruments to populate the Captain and First Officer panels for the 747-200 here. These are packaged into a single .siff file which can be imported directly into Air Manager. Many instruments are duplicated for both pilots, and where applicable the position can be set in User Preferences, so the instruments on either side act correctly and independently. In some cases multiple versions of a particular instrument , or instrument group, are available. Modern airliners tend to be sold with a standard fit, with very few user options or extras. 747-200s were built at a time when individual customer airlines had a say in the cockpit layouts of their aircraft and so many differing panel layouts were built. Over time improvements to instrument technology and changing airworthiness requirements resulted in changes and updates to cockpit avionics fit, adding yet more variety. As information availability, time and talent permits, together with future Felis development, I may expand the range of available Air Manager instruments.

Here's a snapshot of some Captain and F/O panel configurations which can be built using these instruments
README - In order for any gauges using magnetic heading to function correctly ONE INSTANCE of the "Felis 742 - AM System Magvar" gauge MUST be running in your Air Manager network. Just set "XP Default" in User Properties if you're flying current day in X-Plane or select the year closest to the historic era in which you're flying to allow correct magnetic headings, bearings and radials to be flown.
