Hi Peter, nice video. A few observations from someone who is well versed in shared cockpit having done lots in the Majestic Q400. First a short intro Your Controls would have been useful for those of us who don’t know anything about the app. Your already aware of the audio level problem so I’ll leave that one. As far as I’m aware the whole idea of shared cockpit is to share the workload amongst the crew. My impression of watching this was that apart from a few radio calls and other minor operations your co-pilot had very little to do. You were reading the checklist, doing the flow, responding to yourself and doing most of the switch operations. Normal SOP would be for the PM to read the checklist and the PF to respond. You were doing flaps, gear, mixture, props, lights and heading select etc instead of asking the co-pilot to carry those items out leaving you to do the flying. I noticed your co-pilot connected to Vpilot as Observer when he was the one handling the comms, You should have been. Your ILS tracking was slightly compromised by you taking screen shots but that’s got nothing to do the shared cockpit so not relevant to this. All in all it’s a promising app and one I’m sure to have a go with myself. It’s a learning experience for all us sim pilots that are used to doing everything single handed. Learning to share responsibility is tricky and like most things needs practice. Looking forward to more of this kind of content.

Thanks Ian, yes Marvin wasn't confident on flying the DC-3 so thats why we split up the tasks the way we did. But I hope to get into the meat of proper shared responsibility like you say. The good thing about Your Controls is that is INCREDIBLY easy to setup, just a few clicks and your done. None of the difficulty of port numbers and IP addresses like the Majestic. And sometimes getting un-synced, although you did see on approach how Marvin disconnected and reconnected in the air without being kicked and not getting back onto the flight deck, which I think is really good. We could have flown a lot more by the book but neither of us were used to shared cockpit in a long time so decided to play it loosey-goosey on this one

I know there are companies saying there is no interest in vintage airliners, yet most summers I talk to are gagging for 707s, BAC1-11s, DC-10s etc. Really hoping this 707 will be one of AH’s better products. They’ve been supposedly working on it for quite a while… Love the F28: looking forward to the F70 & F100. I reckon the PMDG is the B747-400. Think they mentioned it a few months back. Just discovered your content and really enjoying it!

Thanks for the message Wozza, yea I don’t know if the PMDG 747 is as far along. I think if they’ve already stated that’s the next thing in the pipeline, I don’t know why they would then call it a ‘secret project’. But yea, the 747 will be beautiful, far prefer it over the 777. Which everyone is raving about but it’s so close to the 787 to me that I’m still on the fence. Yea I’m quite sceptical about this 707, especially after hearing that AH are bringing the CIVA INS to the aircraft after launch as a separate addon. Which is ridiculous

Another point you missed is this modern idea of "class" -- humm - humm - No ! it did not apply then - 1 class only - and not a cheap one -- you paid the price but you had quite an experience -- I mean ALL the passengers had very much the same level of service. as I said to my other comment - the layout were polymorphic and could be changed like night and day for ALL passengers. You should lookup and cross section diagram of the aircraft to understand how it is compartementalised.
