PMDG 的手册文风以啰嗦见长,同一句话反反复复地说,例如这段
The lever has two positions: “ENGAGE” (up) and
“DISENGAGE” (down). The lever mechanism is so constructed that no interme-
diate position is possible; an off-center toggle mechanism holds the lever in either
the up or down position, thus eliminating the possibility of the lever being left in
any intermediate position.
说这么一大串,其实就一个意思,操作杆有开和关两个位置——用得着说这么多吗?什么“让杆子维持在或上或下的位置,避免了杆子停在中间的可能”,听听这什么屁话,看这种手册真是浪费生命。
PMDG 的手册动辄上千页,大部分都是废话。
