Cabin Announcements

The aircraft features custom pilot and flight attendant announcments. They are livery dependent (some default liveries have a less enhanced sound package - still in development) and respect local languages.

All announcments will only work if you load up the aircrafts weight via the EFB.

Auto Mode

If enabled in the EFB Operator Settings (Enable Announcments Auto Mode) all sounds will be triggered automatically. No user interaction is required. Remember that flight attendants can usually only be heard in the cabin, not in the cockpit.

Manual Mode

Flight attendants are working automatically, but captain announcements are not triggering itself and when crew is calling, manual pick up is needed (CAB button on audio panel). If you don't pick up, crew will stop calling after 5-12 seconds.
