FSX Primary Flight Display (PFD) Updates

Primary Flight Display updates sharpen radio altimeter readouts for more precise flare and touchdown cues in FSX, correcting inaccurate or hard-to-read radalt behavior found on many default jet panels. The package refines three aircraft types with clearer, more realistic altitude callouts, improving situational awareness during the final seconds of approach.

FSXPrimary Flight Display (PFD) Updates. A good flight has to end with a great landing. For a great landing you need precision. And for precision you need an accurate and readable radio altimeter (radalt) reading. FSX does provide radalts with most jets but they are not accurate and sometimes not readable. With this update three different types of aircraft receive a correction to the radalts readings and they are now easily read, almost like the real thing. By Dimitris Moschos.
