In the chase for realism, I'm modeling this directly after a real-life plane. KLM's own PH-BQA. A lot of good progress made, but so much more to come. I've just begun working on flight stabilization. AG1 for the forward doors
KLM B-206 ER PH-BQA in Real Life
KLM B-777 206 ER PH-BQA My Attempt
I've finished a lot of the actual programming for the overhead panel.
The hydraulics page for the displays is complete. It's one piece and took a lot of work, shown on the right-inboard display. Turn on all the switches on the ELECTRICS panel, then you can play with the HYDRAULICS switches and watch the screen do it's thing. Finish pressing every single button on the overhead console, and the two by the throttle levers, so get the engines going.
Electrics Panel Configured
Hydraulics Display Coming to Life
My Reference for the Hydraulic Display
Be careful on take-off, gentle rotation, and be aware she has extreme difficulty holding the centerline.
I'm having to use some creative liberty to keep the part count as low as it is, especially in the cockpit.
Comments, thoughts, conversation is always welcome! Will provide work sources upon request

This is amazing!
I have a request: could you make an Airbus a380 with a cockpit as realistic and accurate as this?
Also, I LOVE your RA-80 MAX, it is my second favorite plane (first place is mekomaras wasp modernization)
holy shit this so good
Keep up the work, tag me when you finished this plane
@LESPACE Welcome! The first thing you'll want to do is switch on the battery and the APU starter from the overhead console; treat it like a MSFS B777. Then, above the throttle levers are the switches to control the lower display, which will guide you thru the checklists. Hope this helps!
Please tell me how to operate this plane!!!!
Oooooh man, your KLM 777-206ER recreation is looking amazing already. ;) I'm definitely looking forward to seeing this beautiful bird fully complete whenever that might be. :D
