aircraft, and

then play the cabin announcement when they have

ﬁnished embarking.

Should you wish to let FDC Live Cockpit! 2011 start

the cabin announcements automatically, the Welcome Aboard

announcement will be played immediately after the connection to

Flight Simulator is established. FDC Live Cockpit! 2011 also offers a

third choice, where you can have FDC Live Cockpit! 2011 start the

cabin announcement automatically when you are ﬂying a jet airliner,

while you start them manually for other aircraft. This option allows

you to have cabin announcements with large airliners, and start them

if you wish to when ﬂying smaller aircraft.

Note! If you use the hotkey to start the announcements, no

announcements will be played at all until you have hit the hotkey

(this is an easy way of making ﬂights without cabin crew and

without having to adjust the settings in FDC Live Cockpit! 2011).
