Perfect,
today absolutely need to do major work on the KC before you leave.
Plan for today:
- CDUs
- gear animation
- start work on the boom op.

UPDATED TO-DO LIST IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE:
1) check fuel consumption and make the central tank working (increase standard fuel load, switch cargo to fuel tanks and implement consumption while refueling).
2) 3D engines models: work on the internal part, UV map, contrails, smoke.

3) Yet again fix problems with Autopilot: Altitude Hold does not correspond to the real FL the KC maintains and the GPS/FMS hdg keeps disabling randomly while flying, especially when altitude is changed.
4) Re-work the electrical system.
5) make the Nav display panel work properly, find a good place for its commands.
6) make the CDUs work properly + resize, reposition and retexture them.
7) make the gear animation faster.
8) work on the boom operator office (radars, nav displays, new instruments, fix the point of view (makes the rear aircraft part invisible), etc.)
9) improve internal + engines sounds (add a "welcome sound" when everything lights up).
10) put new radio comms under the throttle levers.
11) add a MFD between the two CDUs which works as TCAS, systems, and other.
12) work on both engineer and overhead panel (improve instruments and move sone from the eng to the oh).
13) add 787-9 HUD to both pilot and co-pilot.
14) improve the magnetic compass instrument (make it fixed and place a new compass).
15) improve the trims.
16) make the reverse thrust viewable on the engines display.
17) remove/move the "Rolex" in the middle of the cockpit.
18) make a whole new AP panel in the center part of the cockpit.
19) USAF liveries (ACI...)
20) improve ATA refueling (onox)
21) add damage code so it works with OPRF business (onox).
22) implement MP dual control for co-pilot and boom operator.
23) remove cargo loaders.

This is the lot.
Regards, Mav
