hello
ok i will try to answer the question clear
1: navigation vor: sometimes, when your nav gps is on, your gps devices will
need to optain some information from VOR devices on the ground. so it's good to
have your NAV VOR on, if not, your aircraft cannot interact with VOR devices on
the ground.
and other than that, you might want to fly vor 2 vor.
2: autobreaks? well, it will start from low to high.
so if you set them to position 1, your aircraft will apply the breaks so low
and not firm.
but when you set it to 4, your aircraft will unlikely pull the breaks so firmly
and fast when you touch the ground.
saying these, if the runway is rainy or snow, please set them to 3 or 4 as we
don't want the aircraft to roll out of the runway and crash.
also, some pilots in the real world, will set the autobreaks to 1, then after
touchdown they will shut the engines, and will drive to the gate when the
aircraft is still rolling.
i hope i made it cleare
you have this mail from hadi
