1. WELCOME

A. Installation

Installation is automatic. Insert the CD - or dou-ble-click on the downloaded file - and Autorun will take you to the start-up screen. If Autorun is disabled on your system, open Windows Explorer or My Computer, browse to your CD Rom drive and double click “HJJ_FSX_vx.exe” (where x is your version).

Once setup is running, follow the on-screen prompts and ensure that the installation points directly to the Microsoft Flight Simulator folder (usually C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\FlightSimulator...).

THE FOLLOWING PACKS MUST BE INSTALLED BEFORE THIS ADD-ON INSTALLATION : FSUIPC (free version) to run the Weather

Radar. FSUIPC is available from http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html.

(freely available from www.fsinsider.com - Downloads)

B. Extra

(for CD-Rom version only)

We have included a full set of files and videos on your CD-Rom. Use your Windows Explorer to locate them into the EXTRA WILCO directory.

To fully enjoy the 3D Virtual Cockpit, tracking movement systems let you control your field of view in flight simulators by simply looking around by few degrees.

We recommend Track IR (Natural Point) available from Wilco Publishing http://www.wilcopub.com.

G. Setup Utility Tool

The 737 Pilot in Command Evo Set Up utility is located into your Windows Start menu. To access it, press START button of your Windows -> All programs -> Wilco Publishing 737 PIC Evo -> 737PIC Evo Setup Utility.

H. Weather Radar

The weather radar included with 737 Pilot in Command Evolution is based on the real Collins WXR2100. The most important is to locate haz-ardous weather areas, and avoid them. This sys-tem is able to show the pilot where dense pre-cipitation is located and turbulence is expected. In an aviation based weather radar, only water and wet hail produces reflections. Only the clouds located at the aircraft level can be dis-played.

Colors code :

Green => Light precipitations Yellow => Moderate precipitations Red => Severe precipitations

The INTENSITY OF TURBULENCE within clouds can also be displayed. The turbulence is calculated out of the velocity changes for the reflections. This turbulence can only be

meas-ured within clouds that generate normal reflec-tions. So only precipitation based turbulence can be displayed, gusty winds and other air turbu-lence cannot.

Colors code :

dark magenta => Moderate turbulences intense magenta => Severe turbulences

The turbulence image is an overlay to the nor-mal weather radar image so if no turbulence is measured, the normal RGB Weather Radar image is drawn. The turbulence detection is limited to a Range of 40NM.

A special high sensitivity mode makes it possible to detect WINDSHEAR out of water particles. Windshear is always present at low altitudes just above ground. Additional due to the high sensi-tivity, other particles than water may produce enough reflection energy to be detected and dis-played as windshear.

Windshear is only working below 2500ft AGL and in ranges up to 5 NM. This mode is only intended for take off and final approach phase. Windshear areas are marked by red rings.

NOTES ABOUT WEATHER RADAR :

1. The Weather Radar technology requires a lot of PC resources and therefore may result in a huge impact on the frame rate.

2. When switching ON the Weather Radar, the radar pulse generators need to warm up, which can take up to 40 seconds.

3. The tilt adjusting is available in Virtual Cockpit mode only (below engine instruments).

I. Extra Information

PANEL LIGHT

The panel light in the Virtual cockpit can be turned ON/OFF just like the one can be found on the pedestal.

TOGA SWITCH (Take Off Go Around)

GEAR CUTOFF HORN

By adding flaps and pulling back the throttle to idle if you don't have the gear down a horn will sound. You can silence it by using the Gear Warning Cut OFF button.

J. Latest Features

GROUND POWER UNIT

To call GPU, the plane should stay with engines OFF, parking brake ON, and click the Ground Power Available light. Then, wait a minute. Ground Power Unit is fully simulated. When you turn your engines OFF and set the parking brake ON by clicking on the Ground Power Available light you can have GPU in a minute.

APU BURNS FUEL

Exclusive feature ! Just like in the real plane, the APU uses fuel. This is simulated only on feelThere aircraft. Nowhere else!

AUTOMATIC NOSE STEERING LIMITER Above 40kts, the nose wheel steering is limited to 6 degrees without effecting the rudder. Very realistic but can be turned OFF in the setup util-ity.

PAUSE BEFORE TOP OF DESCENT (TOD) Another nice and useful feature in the setup

util-ity. Flight Simulator can pause 20 Nm before you reach the TOD point. It's handy on long range flights.

THRUST VARIES WITH OAT TEMPERATURE

(drops on hot days and raises at cold ones) All temperature dependent thrust tables are rogrammed into the FMS so it detects the out-side temperature and set the thrust accordingly, just like in the real life.

SELECTABLE THRUST RATING Exclusive feature ! The 737 was delivered with various engine ratings in real life and we wanted to simulate them all. It is a checkbox in the setup utility and you can simulate any of these ratings customising to the airline's rating you fly.

WIND REQUEST

From the LEGS page of the FMS, you can request wind data to the enroute part of the flight plan and the FMS will take this information into con-sideration allowing an even more precise fuel prediction.

SECURITY EQUIPMENT

The trigger for the security equipment is the hand microphone located on each pilot's side console. Just click the mic and the security gear will load/unload in the exterior model : engine muffs, pre-flight flags (animated) and wheel chocks.
