I wish the quality was better for my beta quest 3 everything else looks ok.
I can see everything on YouTube. I don’t need this game
I was originally really excited about this app. I checked out the trial version and was pretty impressed, the flow and functionality was pretty close to my company flows. Close enough that I went ahead and got the full version.
That's about the end of the similarities between company flows and this applications flows. I went through them all comparing my companys flow sheets with what the app had... desperately hoping there was some that I could use. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough similarities to make it worth using as a flow trainer.
I'm not going to give it a super low rating because I had higher expectations than what was on the app. I did read the other reviews and I have to agree with them.
To end things on a positive note, there are some really great things about the app that I like. Firstly, the paper tigers are useful, but the explore mode takes things to a whole other level. Being able to sit in the seat and have the VR ability to turn and see where each switch is (along with the description of what everything does when you select it) is awesome.
Even though the flow isn't in the order I need, there are some benefits to going through them at least once or twice. The way that it directs you to look at each individual part during a check is helpful (if you haven't been to initial training yet).
I don't regret the purchase, but for the serious flow studying, I crawled back into my cave and got out the paper tigers. I did use explorer mode and go through my company flows a few times just poking the right switch while someone was with me verifying my progress (without a Oculus headset on). However, that's somewhat impractical.
They did a really good job, and when it was released, it was probably absolutely perfect for learning flows. Without updates or being able to modify the flows, it's not really a flow trainer anymore. But, it is still a decent tool to learn switch positions, what they do, the names of the panels, etc. There was a lot of hard work put into the application, and that is appreciated.
I would highly suggest besides the ability to modify or create your own flows, or at least to be updated regularly to match the manufacturer updates
This is great for familiarization with the aircraft, but s others have said, not with your company flows. Developers, please give us the ability to customize the flows ourselves.
Procedures: Generic only… without the ability to cater individual operator differences this will remain as a “hobbyist” tools. For training purpose every single step need to be very precise. Don’t get me wrong, I am not trying to ask you manage all operator’s procedure. Instead you can:
1. Add an in-app pdf reader so user can have their own FCOMs on hand
2. Make the checklists open for editing so users can edit their own version. If better, make a Library function for everyone to upload their airline specific procedures.
