We've just released a new beta version for Aerofly FS 4 which adds a lot of new features and functionality to the A380 in preparation for the upcoming Airbus A350 as well as some improvements to the A320 family, a new startup sound on the 737 MAX and other minor bug fixes.


OIS - Onboard Information System (OIS), electronic flight bag (EFB) with takeoff and landing performance calculation and en-route moving map for situational awareness.

ANF / OANS - Airport Navigation Function (ANF) a.k.a. Onboard Airport Navigation System (OANS), an airport map on the navigation display (ND) with runways, tarmac, terminal outlines and most importantly interactive menus to set the runway exit. Also includes caution popup messages on PFD/ND when approaching a runway.

BTV - Brake To Vacate (BTV) auto-brake feature to slow the aircraft down to taxi speeds at a selected taxiway exit during landing.


The following systems received massive improvements:

PFD - Primary Flight Display:
Improvements to the Flight Mode Annunciator (FMA), GPWS warnings, short term managed speed target, vertical deviation readout, automatic flap retraction speed,...

ND - Navigation Display:
Departure or Approach identifier shown at the top, runway exit information (when BTV armed), grid MORA (minimum off-route altitude)

MFD - Multi-Function Display:
New pages for IRS, Fix Info, Status, EFIS and FCU backup, added destination EFOB, ETA, distance, ADF tuning, takeoff thrust derating, N1 noise abatement

EFIS CP - Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) Control Panel:
PUSH to set STD pressure (different to A320!), auto-range adjustment between ARC and ROSE/PLAN mode, multiple selection of CSTR, ARPT and VOR/NDB/WPTs

ECAM - Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitor (ECAM):
Improved flight-phase switching, more Warnings/Cautions for incorrect takeoff configuration, takeoff from taxiway or wrong runway, barometer cross-check,...

The Aircraft gross weight has changed, is now corrected in MFD and on SD common bottom info and computation of v-speeds (VLS, V1, VR, V2, F, S, V green dot, VAPP) was updated.
