Since March 2013 D-EKEW, D-LEON, D-STHO are working on this model. They are making use of original data from the Pilot's Operation Handbook. People who have experienced the aircraft in real life help calibrating the FDM as well as tuning the systems behavior.

The EA 400-500 was introduced as a derivative of the EA-400 replacing the piston engine with a Rolls-Royce Model 250-B17F/2 turboprop producing 450 horsepower (340 kW) and driving a MT-propeller 5 bladed propeller. Walter Extra flew the first Extra500 from Germany to Oshkosh, Wisconsin to illustrate its range and capabilities. The most recent changes to the aircraft come from Avidyne with their latest glass avionics: [[Avidyne Entegra R9]].

== Operation ==
Development takes place on GitLab: https://gitlab.com/extra500/extra500.  
'''For full operation instructions, see the official Extra500 POH. It can be downloaded from the manufacturers homepage:
[http://www.extraaircraft.com/techservice.php]''', right at the bottom.


Below is just a quick start and some selected topics.
The latest stable release is also available on the the Flightgear SVN aircraft repository:

WARNING: Below reflects the current development version (master). If you are using the stable version, some functionality will not be available!
And of course the [http://www.flightgear.org/download/aircraft-v3-4/ Flightgear aircraft download page] has the stable release of the point where the latest Flightgear version was released.
Stable releases are available for Flightgear versions 3.2.0, 3.4.0, 3.6.0, 2016.1 (use for 2016.2 as well), 2016.3 (use for 2016.4 as well), 2017.1 (use for 2017.2 as well), 2017.3, 2018.1 and 2018.3. You can get them using GIT:


===General Remarks===
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|
All switches are thrown by rotating the mouse wheel in the appropriate direction. Push buttons are pressed by clicking with the LH Mouse button. Rotary knobs are turned by the mouse wheel as well. Hold {{key press|SHIFT}} for large steps.
{{gitlab clone|proj=extra500|repo=extra500}}
cd extra500
git checkout FG/VERSION

The IFD buttons on the left, right and lower bezel are always double buttons. Meaning they always have a left and right side. The lower buttons (PFD - FMS - MAP - SYS - CHKL) navigate between the main pages. Once on the selected page the same button will let you navigate through the tabs. The side knobs do not always have a function, but if they have, they are lighted and the function is shown next to them.  
With ''VERSION'' = 3.2.0, 3.4.0, 3.6.0, 2016.1, 2016.3, 2017.1, 2017.3, 2018.1, 2018.3

===Messages===
There are several types of messages that may appear on your screen:
# Failure (red): a failure has occurred
# Warnings (red): an aircraft limit has been exceeded, immediate action required
# Cautions (yellow): a limit has been exceeded, action needed within 5 minutes
# Info (blue): some general information on why something does not work or some other peculiarity
# Trim: shows if the pilot (you) needs to pull or push the yoke. You will need to use the elevator trim (mouse wheel) accordingly.
All these messages are on by default, but can be switched off in the [[Extra EA-500/config|Extra500 - Configuration menu]].
The messages by far do not cover all situations, but are there to help the pilot learn the most basic behavior/limits. Typically there is no special message when it already is in the aircraft warning panel.
===Flight Planning===
By clicking on 'Equipment - Fuel and Payload' (on the ground) you can access a comprehensive [[Extra EA-500/flight_planning|flight planning tool.]]<br /> There are four tabs, of which the 2 upper ones deal with loading the aircraft. It won't be a surprise that they are called 'Fuel' and 'Payload'. By clicking and dragging you can add passengers, baggage, dogs and fuel on the individual seats or tanks respectively. Of course while loading you must adhere to the aircraft weight and center of gravity limits. This is graphically displayed in the lower tab 'weight'. The other lower tab is a Trip Calculator. You can input your trip distance, cruise altitude, airport altitude and alternate distance to calculate your required fuel load. These values may be imported from your flight plan ('Autopilot - Route Manager') with a single click. You can also put the exact calculated fuel into your tanks by clicking on the 'Order Fuel' button.

Above a cabin altitude of 8000ft, it can end up in a abnormal low level of oxygen in your blood. If this happen you will feel a blackout and it's necessary to bring immediate the cabin altitude below 8000ft by descend or pressurize the cabin.

=IFD : Integrated Flight Display=
[[Category:Aircraft documentation]]
The system assist a single pilot to manage an IFR-operated flight. The design is clearly oriented to provide quick access to the requested information and to handle the data as quickly as possible. The goal is to relieve the pilot and reduce the pilot's workload.
 
==General==
The IFD System in the Extra500 constist of two Displays in the front and one Keypad in the center console.
 
==Display==
[[File:IFD Keys.png|400px|thumbnail|right|IFD Keys]]
Each display has five page-select keys at the bottom. With these keys the active page can be selected. On the active page, the current key will navigate through the associated tabs. On the left- and right hand side, there are multi- function keys, so called "Line Select Key"(LSK). Each tab can serve a function on the LSK. If it is active it's indicated with a light on the key(green at day, white at night). The display shows also a label next to the LSK-key with the intended function name. On the left and right bottom corners, there are two bezels the intended function is displayed in the left/right corners of the tab indication.
