he is not using the actual panel of the aircraft..

I presume it is the toggle panel which ease the player control the aircraft using the same panel for all aircraft..

If he was using the actual panel he would be able to pan the camera around the cockpit

What you can do if you don't have designer skills, is to take a different model, panel/gauges, and perhaps even a different airfile, and build something more realistic. I've been doing it for years with Citations going back to FS98. A panel design tool, and text editing skills is all you need.

Many of these guys are computer experts, who design nice looking planes, but know very little about real life aviation. You seldom find someone with both skill sets.

The exterior model isn't terribly bad, but the main instrument panel is certainly not even close. The Phenom 100/300 uses the Garmin PRODIGY glass cockpit, using 3 large LCD displays (Pilot, Center and FO). Considering the relative authenticity to the exterior model, you have to assume that the developer had access to images of the cockpit. Panel dev in MSFS is a different skill than building the model. No need to be nasty.

well, without getting into too much esoterica and being Surly, or having to "point out" all these Flaws i'm seeing, I suppose the iteration "To each his own" must apply, but......as an experienced flight simmer, who takes it seriously when it comes to "Add-on's" and the Flight sim Aircraft Flown, i TOO, see so many Horrendous "Cartoon" airplanes slapped together, and available as "Freeware" that are just Crap. not even close to anything resembling accurate panels. you get what you pay for.

Okay here's the thing. This is not an Embraer Phenom 300, it's the Phenom 100.

[tjamro2]

What are you talking about??? That is an Embraer Phenom 300...It has winglets and swept back wings...two things the phenom 100 dont have!

Yes well I didn't catch that. I don't know what piece of crap add-on this is but the Phenom 100/300 avionics are based on the Garmin G1000 glass cockpit. The cockpit shown in this add-on is the Honeywell glass cockpit which looks like a Learjet one. The add-on is inaccurate.
