Introduction
Introduction to iFly 747-400
Thanks for using iFly 747-400!

We have taken three years of development for iFly 747-400. It is an add-on
software for Microsoft® Flight simulator X™ (FSX). With our core
developer Mr.Jiangwei’s hard work, iFly 747-400 is now able to simulate
most of system components that are on real Boeing 747-400 airplane. They
included Air Systems, EICAS, Automatic Flight Control System,
Communication System, Electrical Systems, Fire Protection System, Flight
Controls Systems, Flight Instruments, Flight Management Systems, Fuel
Systems, Hydraulics Systems, spear gear and FLAP systems, TCAS, GPWS,
CMC and many more.

Due to the limitation of FSX, some system functionalities couldn’t be
realized completely. For example, there’s no weather radar implementation
on iFly 747-400. Since the overwhelming complexity of 3D 747-400 models,
only the first class and business class have modeled in virtual cabin. But
don’t be upset; in reality the airline companies usually arrange the business
class seats into economy class cabin too☺. Additionally on a real plane, the
positions of kitchen and lavatories are placed according to different cabin
class layout. Therefore these facilities in iFly 747-400 virtual cabin may
seen differently by comparing to various cabin layout on real airplanes.

Because we took this development seriously and tried to be hardcore enough
just like very other fans of Boeing 747, this simulator should deserves a
comprehensive manual that can fully describe each part of system
components. Thus during the time of manual and documents writing, we
have referenced the real Boeing 747-400 flight manuals in order to provide
rich-content documents to the end users. And this is our yet another purpose
that while users can fully simulate the cockpit of Boeing 747-400 on PCs,
they also find commons from flight manuals between real ones and ours.

Introduction of the project team and team
members
The iFly developer team currently has four members. As an individual, we got to know
each other in a virtual aviation community. With the same interests in flight simulation,
we were all very active on the simulation forum and shared every little thing about
aviation, and finally we became very close friends. Therefore, this team was established
under great friendship.

Jiangwei Shen
Founder, gauge developer & 3D modeling

He founded this developer team in 2003. He loves Boeing series
airplanes and has great understanding of major Boeing series airplane
systems. He has received his Master degree of Science in late 2004
with specialized in computing graphic and Geographic Information
System (GIS). Currently working in Zhejiang Institute of Media and Communications,
Zhejiang, China (ICAO: ZSHC).

Bo Yuan
2D painting & optimiztion

Born 1978 in Shan’xi, China. He is a painting artist with specialized in
2D image creation and has great understanding of image optimization.
Further more he is very familiar by using various graphical editing
tools. Currently working in an electricity company and unmarried.

Miao Luo
Documentation & manual writing

He is currently pursuing for his Master degree of Science specialized in
software engineering in University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland. Born 1981
in Chongqing, China. He is a big fan of Airbus fleets and has good understanding of
Airbus A320-series airplane systems. He plans to graduate from university next year
2006.

Qinzhong Yao
Technical mentor

Born 1968 in Taipei, Taiwan. He has received his Master degree of
Laws (LLM). He’s been an active airline and flight simulation add-on
commentator since 2000. He has worked for an airliner magazine as

executive editor, and currently working as vice-director and lecturer in University of
General Education Center in Taoyuan, Taipei. Single.

Credits
In the end, we should give most credits to Mr.Jiangwei’s hard work on gauge
programming and 3D model development. Back in 2002 he has contributed his first add-
on airport scenery ZSHC GMAX for FS2002 (Still available on AVSIM). Ever since then,
he started to develop airplane gauges. Therefore without his enthusiasm, there will never
be iFly 747-400. We should also thank to Mr.Yuan’s hard work on 2D painting. He is the
one who has given us the visual enjoyed on iFly 747-400 cockpit panels and liveries. Last
but not least, we should thank Mr.Yao (not that NBA player), with his inspiration to the
development and rich knowledge on airplane system, we finally have been able to
delivery this package to the virtual aviation community.

Normal Procedures
General
Normal Checklists are organized by phase of flight to ensure airplane condition is
acceptable and the flight deck is correctly configured for each phase of flight. These
procedures assume all systems are operating normally and automated features are fully
used.

Normal Checklists are used to verify that certain critical procedural steps have been
accomplished. These normal procedures are divided by major flight phase and should
provide a basic guideline for accomplishing the major procedures required during flight.

The flight crew uses the Normal Checklist after accomplishing all applicable procedural
items. The First Officer on the ground and the pilot not flying in flight reads the checklist.
Each crewmember responds for systems and controls in that crewmember’s area of
responsibility.

Controls and Indicators – Nomenclature
Controls and indications appear in all UPPERCASE type to correspond to the words on
the control panel or display. For example, the following item has UPPERCASE words to
match what is found on the panel:
PASSENGER OXYGEN switch ....................NORM (guarded position)
The word PASSENGER is spelled out, even though it is abbreviated on the panel. The
following appears in all lower case because there are no words identifying the panel name:
Fuel panel............................................................................................ Set

How to read the checklists?
The checklist has some indented lines. The main points start on the left, with the actions
on the right of the column (with dots in between). Whenever a comment or a conditional
action is required, this is shown with an indentation (shifted to the right).

Supplementary Procedures
General
This chapter contains procedures (adverse weather operation, engine crossbleed start, and
so on) accomplished as required rather than routinely performed on each flight.

Procedures accomplished in flight, or those that are an alternate means of accomplishing
normal procedures (such as manual engine start), are usually accomplished by recall.
Infrequently used procedures, not normally accomplished (such as engine crossbleed start)
are usually accomplished by reference.

Air Conditioning System Introduction
Introduction
The air conditioning system can provide conditioned bleed and recirculated cabin air
throughout the airplane at a specified temperature. On a normal operating airplane, the
pack control, zone temperature control, cabin air recirculation, fault detection, and
overhear protection are all automatic. In case of system failures, the backup system
control modes can operate for it.

There are seven temperature zones:
• flight deck
• upper deck
• five main deck cabin zones A through E

Air Conditioning Packs
There are three identical air conditioning packs, they are used to cool down the bleed air
from the engines, APU, or high pressure air from ground sources. Two identical pack
controller are in charge of packs controlling, called A and B.

Each pack valve has normal and high flow settings. During cruise, normal flow
minimizes bleed air demand on the engine in order to reduce fuel consumption. Pilot can
set it to high flow by clicking the High Flow switch ON.

Zone Target Temperatures
The Passenger Temperature selector sets the master passenger cabin temperature to
between 18°C and 29°C on real airplane.

Equipment Cooling
The equipment cooling system can provide cooling air for the electrical and electronic (E
& E) compartment equipments and flight deck equipment.

Pressurization System Introduction
Introduction
Cabin pressurization is controlled by the discharge of conditioned cabin air through the
outflow valves at regulation. There are two cabin altitude controllers, A and B. Each
controller controls both outflow valves. The pressurization system has automatic and
manual operating modes.
