If any one needs help with the A380 Development, I would be glad to help. I really want to help! I do have Flight Gear 9.10. |

I think the most important action at this point would be to gather reliable information on the glass cockpit... there is so much new stuff in there that it's hard to extrapolate from earlier Airbus models. I've got a selection of images, mostly from Airliners.net, but that's pretty much it. I've also been able to identify the makers of certain system, notably the radio management panel (Team Avionics) and the KCCU (Thales/Diehl). Some thought will have to go into the cockpit layout in FGFS too -- the cockpit of the A380 is just too big and detailed to be shown on a single screen, especially if all buttons etc. have to be simulated too. Maybe a 3D cockpit is the solution -- after all, the PFD and ND contain most of the important information. I hacked up a partial PFD one night, using Python and cairo, but it turned out to be too slow for the job, so a real OpenGL solution would be better. Other than that, I think a working fly-by-wire system would help too. Maybe some work on this is also in progress? I've got an A320 manual which explains pretty well how the system behaves, and I don't think the A380 is much different (apart from actual numerical values and the function of the rudder pedals maybe).

But what's really= =20 holding up the A380 are the other systems that interact with the FCS system= ,=20 and the IMA architecture that integrates these systems together. Ampere |
