Post your scope!

Very Nice.

 

Nice to see more American ES set ups!

Hi Chris,

 

I changed my color settings to match AJ's (ZLA) DSR color profile, I think it looks awesome!

[Christopher Mauro 0]

Haha yea, matching Euroscope to DSR colors is fun

I got mine from Alan Smiley, ZTL I1, and I love them. His were based off of real world ZJX configuration.

Congrats to all involved for the running of another successful Worldflight!

My eyes! How on Earth are you able to separate airplanes through that rainbow?

Lol! I'm use to it I guess....

Neat perspective Jake, looks like some photos of the real thing!

I thought that it WAS, until I saw the Windows Vista taskbar! Looks great, Jake, really looking forward to it!

Anush,

 

 

That color profile seems rather difficult to work an enroute position with. Your aircraft datablocks are roughly the same color as your airspace boundaries and you're using a dark blue color for primaries that nearly blends with the background at first glance. You really want the brightest thing on your scope to be what you're separating, the aircraft primary targets, and data blocks are going to be the next most important thing to be focused on. I'd highly suggest trying the DSR color profiles that so many are using now days. That might make things a tad easier to focus on while you control.

 

I know the ZLA sector file has a large variety of hard-coded colors programed into it, maybe that's why you've opted to use these colors instead. I've taken the liberty to remove a majority of these in a custom file so that using the DSR profile for enroute positions and other profiles for approach control positions is far easier on the eyes than having a rainbow of colors sprawled out across your scope. I can show you how to do this if you'd be interested sometime, it's not too difficult to accomplish. I can tell you for sure though that many studies have gone into the color profiles in use in the real world from determining which colors work best for what portions of the display to how many different colors should be depicted on a scope at any given time... For lack of a better term, there's "a reason for the madness" as it may initially appear.

 

I'd give it a shot though if you haven't already...

 

 

Regards,

 

AJ

Bermuda Triangle 2010 - Miami Oceanic combined

 

[Daniel Hawton 0]

Oceanic has radar tracking capabilities?

[Christopher Mauro 0]

Miami Oceanic is radar capable.

[Daniel Hawton 0]

Ahh. learn something new everyday!

[Matthew Spencer 1088911 0]

Miami Oceanic is radar capable.

Most of it's not though... the oceanic sectors are run with strip marking and non-radar procedures if reports are to be believed.

One of my instructors works oceanic frequently, we had a really in depth discussion about non-radar separation, and he indicated that most of the area has no meaningful radar coverage.

Thanks for the info! I'd p[Mod - Happy Thoughts] it on to Bob.

When I was in a tower here in Canada, I saw that here they run the radar as an application on a copy of Windows XP.
