(Original thread started on 08-06-12 by Eric Williams)

Here is a free runway incursion system offered that will work in the Lear45. FSRaas v1.1 Runway Advisory, a freeware program found here:

You can hear what it sounds like in this video!

Great video, thanks! What I really like is the "x thousand remaining" voice telling you how much runway is left. Can/will this be featured in Jason and Eric's JET45 AAS in the future?

Hey Ronald, I believe this is part of the runway incursion system offered in freeware software. It would be nice if it was made part of Jet45AAS but looks like it may already be available in freeware. I found two versions- this one looks the best. I'm going to give it a try for sure.  Here is the link:

Looks like this might be one more puzzle solved on the way to 100% functional cockpits. It's even based on Honeywell.

Super cool to hear Eric! I just tried the freeware. Once I updated my FSUIPC all works great. I may have to edit a bit for the addon runways but so far it really adds yet another level to the sim.

 

So far with the Lear sounds, TSS sound pack for engines, Jet45 sounds, PM sounds on 2 computers, TCAS addon for aural alerts and now FsRaas- the cockpit is really coming to life! There is always something making noise! Now just have to update Jet45...

 

Yep it works great. Can't remember if it's this or another addon, but I had to re-edit to get the stall warning to work after TSS. Been so long it's all blending together.
