Several panels are also available as 2D overlay panels. Clicking the hydraulics or electric overhead panels will open up a 2D variant. Useful when you'd like to keep an eye on the EICAS during startup! You can close the panel via Shift-P. | |||
'''Important notice:''' as of FlightGear 2.6.0, the 744 has tiller steering, just like the real aircraft where the pedals only turn the nose wheel by a few degrees - to achieve optimal precision during takeoffs and landings. Use the tiller (747-400 > Tiller Steering) dialog to steer during taxiing. | '''Important notice:''' as of FlightGear 2.6.0, the 744 has tiller steering, just like the real aircraft where the pedals only turn the nose wheel by a few degrees - to achieve optimal precision during takeoffs and landings.
