Installation:
1) Extract the contents of the .zip file to the Flight Simulator 9/aircraft folder. (FSX users: Extract contents to Flight Simulator X/SimObjects/airplanes folder.) 2) Move the contents of the /effects/ folder to the Flight Simulator 9/effects folder. (FSX users: Move the .fx files to Flight Simulator X/effects folder.)

Common Problems:
Panel problems, animation, exterior model issues, gear issues (all visual, the flight model is not affected) The TDS787 uses several .xml gauges used to trigger animations and exterior features. These are included and already installed, ready for use, in the panel folder. The panel included is an edited version of the default Boeing 777 panel. If you edit or replace the panel.cfg that is included in this package then your aircraft will not work properly. If you chose to use a different panel, you must edit the panel.cfg and include the following changes: Under the [Window Titles], add: WindowXX=Debug WindowXX=Util You must change XX to a two digit number in sequence, IE, 06, 07. You must then add the individual gauges by including the following lines below the last [WindowXX] entry: [WindowXX] VISIBLE=0 position=2 size_mm=350,200 child_3d=0 background_color=0,0,0 ident=DEBUG gauge00=Tds788!TdsDEBUG, 0, 0 gauge01=Tds788!TdsDEBUG2, 0, 100 gauge02=Tds788!TdsDEBUG3, 0, 150 [WindowXX] VISIBLE=0

position=2 size_mm=298,104 child_3d=0 background_color=0,0,0 ident=Utility gauge00=Tds_Util!Tds_Init, 0, 0 gauge01=Tds_Util!Tds_Timer, 0, 0 gauge02=Tds_util!Tds_Util, 0, 0 Dont forget to change XX to the same respective numbers that you changed in the previous step. Last, you need to add some lines to the virtual cockpit, defined by [VCockpit##]. Like the previous two steps, these will go at the bottom of that section. [VCockpitXX] size_mm=512,512 pixel_size=512,512 texture=$Tds_ACU background_color=0,0,0 gauge00=Tds788!Tds_AdvInit, 140,80,140,80 gauge01=Tds788!Tdsgearheight, 140,80,140,80 gauge02=Tds788!TdsNosegearsteerling, 140,80,140,80 gauge03=Tds788!Tdsgearretract, 140,80,140,80 gauge04=Tds788!TdsSpoiler, 140,80,140,80 gauge05=Tds788!TdsFlap, 140,80,140,80 gauge06=Tds788!TdsAileron, 140,80,140,80 gauge07=Tds788!TdsRudder_Elev, 140,80,140,80 gauge08=Tds788!TdsEngRev, 140,80,140,80 gauge09=Tds788!TdsWingflex, 140,80,140,80 gauge10=Tds788!TdsAUX, 140,80,140,80 gauge11=Tds788!TdsSEA, 140,80,140,80 gauge12=Tds788!Tdsflasher, 140,80,140,80 [VCockpitXX] size_mm=512,512 pixel_size=512,512 texture=$EXTANIMBASE background_color=0,0,0 gauge00=EXT_TEXTURE_ANIM!EXTTEST, 0, 0, 512, 512

Like the previous steps, be sure to rename the XX to the next two digit number. These numbers do not have any relation to the previous number changes, they may or may not be the same.

Common Problems (contd)

Wings not showing up Due to the increase in file stealing, TDS has implemented new security to ensure that anyone who uses our aircraft know who the original author is and also showing that it is freeware. If your wings are not visible, then someone has removed certain lines from the aircraft.cfg. In the aircraft.cfg file, there is a line that says title= This line MUST include the following entry: FREEWARE_COPYRIGHT_TenkuuDevelopersStudio_01JUN2013 If you have multiple textures that use the same model, then you must have multiple [fltsim.#] entries. No title= may be the same, each must have a unique name, so you can add to the line to keep it different from other titles. For example, if you have an All Nippon 787, the title can be title=Plane0 FREEWARE_COPYRIGHT_TenkuuDevelopersStudio_01JUN2013 OPTANT1110000000_OPTDEC11110 Boeing 787-881 All Nippon Airlines If you use the same model, and want to also add a Japan Airlines texture, then on the JAL entry, you can have title=Plane1 FREEWARE_COPYRIGHT_TenkuuDevelopersStudio_01JUN2013 OPTANT1110000000_OPTDEC11110 Boeing 787-889 Japan Airlines Note that the security code is the exact same, only the Plane#, Aircraft type, and airline has changed.

Antenna Options Aircraft antennas are customized depending on equipment required by each customer. We have done the best to include as many options as we have found, however at the time of release, since there are

only a few operators, not every type of antenna has been modeled. Some antennas can be hidden using a special code, located in each title= section of the aircraft.cfg. Look for the following line: OPTANT1110000000 As of June 2013, only 3 antennas can be hidden. They are the two black antennas on the top, and the antenna on the top just aft of the black ones. When other antennas are added later on, new models will be released. Each number in the code represents one antenna, going from front, to back. 1 means show, 0 means hide. In the above code, all 3 antennas are visible. If this code is completely gone from the title= line, then all of the custom antennas will be hidden. Decal Options Tenkuu's Boeing 787 has several custom decals that can either be painted or have text. They are located above the cockpit windows, in front of the nose gear, and on the belly of the fuselage. Much like the coding for the antenna options, you must have "_OPTDEC#####" included in the TITLE= line of the aircraft.cfg. Replace # with either a 1, or 0. 1 means the decal is visible, 0 means off.

Common Problems (cont'd)

FSX Preview Screen s Problems:

This is a bug with FSX, and at the time, we don't know how to fix it, but this problem is only in the preview window. The actual aircraft is not affected.

Utility Panel Guide:

The TDS Utility panel included in this package controls all of the ground service vehicles and equipment, as well as all of the aircraft lights. Some light switches, such as the Landing Gear and Strobe lights are tied to the default keyboard commands. Others, such as the Cabin Lighting, is only controlled by the Utility Panel. By default, this panel may be brought up by pressing Ctrl + 7 at the same time.

Normal Operations:
When the aircraft is loaded into Flight Simulator, the passengers and cargo are all on board. Simply adjust the fuel load for your flight. Our test flying had been carried out with various payloads and fuel. For a typical, fully loaded flight, we estimate that the aircraft will weight around 500,000 lbs. Below is a generic flight profile.

Flying Tips:
Taking off: At or near MTOW requires a lot of power. 90%-95% N1 is normal for takeoff, with a flap setting of 15 degrees. V1 is around 145-150 KIAS, and V2 is around 165 KIAS. Once the gear is retracted, set for an initial climb out of 2600-2700 fpm, and accelerate to 250 KIAS, gradually retracting flaps, and then follow the flight profile in the image above. Flaps/Slats and their settings: Position # 1 2 3 4 5 6 Slats Degree 17 17 17 17 35 35 Flaps Degree 0 5 15 20 25 30

Approach: When decelerating below 250 KIAS, extend the flaps to the first setting (Slats 17, Flaps 0). Below 200 KIAS, set flaps to 2 (Slats 17, Flaps 5). Below 160 KIAS, set flaps to 3 (Slats 17, Flaps 15). Below 155 KIAS, set flaps to 4 (Slats 17, Flap 15). At 145 KIAS, set flaps to 5 (Slats 35, Flaps 25). The final

approach speed is approximately 135-140 KIAS. Once on final approach, set flaps to 6 (Slats 35, Flaps 30). An approach with a pitch of 0 to 2 degrees is normal. Landing: The ideal touchdown speed is 125 KIAS. Begin your flare at about 70 feet above the runway and gradually reduce power. Do not go idle power until after touchdown.

Disclaimer:
As of the publication and release of this aircraft and manual, not one of our developers has flown in a Boeing 787. We have done the best we can to produce an enjoyable representation of the aircraft and this is our interpretation of its designs, systems, flight characteristics, etc. We used as much information as we could find, unfortunately without the help of Boeing, Rolls Royce, General Electric, any 787 operator, or any 787 type rated pilot, to produce this aircraft. As time goes on and more information becomes made available to us, updates to the model, textures, and or flight dynamics might become available. Be sure to keep in touch with our FaceBook group page at https://www.facebook.com/groups/266322650175225/for the latest files and updates. We ask any and all users, please do not edit our files, with the exception of textures via a paint kit, and redistribute them. We cannot have people come to us asking for support with files that have been edited when we do not know what has been edited or changed. Please respect our wishes as it helps keep us committed to producing freeware for the Flight Simulator Community. Keep in mind that this is freeware, and the developers do this as a hobby. We hope you enjoy this aircraft as much as we enjoyed making it. You may repaint this airplane as you wish, we ask that you give credit where credit is due. When you compile the contents into a .zip file, please include this manual and the original configuration files. You may redistribute them on a website of your choice. We highly recommend friendly sites such as AVSIM.com and Flightsim.com. Virtual Airlines do not need our permission to upload to their servers.
