TFDi Design brings you a modern, detailed simulation on the iconic MD-11 trijet for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020/2024!
COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEMS SIMULATION
Based on both real-world manuals and pilot and mechanic experience.
On-board Systems
Each on-board system has a detailed simulation of both its physical behavioUr and the automatic control computer that manages it. The electrical system dynamically propagates load, the hydraulic system realistically pressurises over time with varied per-system values, the air system responds to bleed configurations and environmental conditions, and the fuel system manages complex transfer and temperature control behaviour.
Flight Controls
Advanced and unique features such as the dial-a-flap system, control surface droop, and deflected aileron package are fully simulated.
Persistence
Continue where you left off with full system state persistence.
ADVANCED FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Experience professional-grade flight planning and management via SIDs and STARs, realistic time and fuel predictions, performance/cost index management, custom waypoints, wind data entry, and holding pattern capabilities. Full simulation of the autoflight and autothrottle system from TAKEOFF pitch guidance to dual AUTOLAND can guide you runway to runway.
ACARS/CPDLC Simulation
Communicate with air traffic control using the MCDU.
LSAS & RCWS
Fully implemented Lateral Stability Augmentation System (LSAS) and optional Roll Control Wheel Steering for enhanced manual flight assistance.
DYNAMIC DISPLAY SYSTEMS
Experience the six rounded digital displays of the MD-11 cockpit, offering visibility into all critical flight and systems data.
