[[File:787-failures.jpeg|300px|thumb|Boeing 787-8 Failure Simulator]] | |||
The aircraft has a built-in failure simulation dialog where you can get different systems to fail in different ways. The failure simulation dialog can do the following: | |||
*Flame-out any of the engines | |||
*Fail any of the engines | |||
*Set any of the engines on fire | |||
*Burst any of the Wheel Tyres | |||
*Have a gear unit ''break-off'' | |||
*Stuck a gear unit in it's current position | |||
*Fail individual hydraulic systems | |||
*Overheat any of the hydraulic or fuel pumps | |||
*Fault any of the hydraulic or fuel pumps | |||
Other general failures like Electrical, Static etc. have not been implemented in this dialog as they can already be controlled with FlightGear's Generic System Failures dialog. | |||
''NOTE: When you flame-out an engine, it can be restarted, but not in the case of a failure. Faults just means that the pump is too hot to function, but it can be restarted when cooled.'' | |||
