    Dear JustFlight Team, hello!

    The F28 (excellent product!) manual mentions an external DC source for APU starting and refuelling as follows: "The DC ground service bus is always automatically energised and can also be fed via an external DC source via a receptacle on the exterior of the aircraft. This supplies enough power for APU starting and refuelling using the refuelling control system."

    As I understand this external DC source is not the external power source (GPU) which can be connected via the Ground Power tab in EFB (this provides AC only), this must be a different option, and I could not find a way how is it simulated, or simulated at all.

    So, I could suggest this option as a possible new feature to increase immersion, eg. a situation with GPU unavailable and batteries depleted for some reason. So maybe two tabs on EFB, one for GPU (AC source) and another one for external DC.

    With best regards, Zoltan
