I just recently acquired Fly II for PC (being a former Fly!2K Mac user -- it's quite a leap, some good and some not-so-good). Anyway, after getting this, one of the first things I did was to D/L the PMDG 777 and wanted to take a quick flight.Using the same logic that consisted in the PMDG 767/757 for Fly!2K, if I set the flight plan within Fly! then, once in the aircraft, set the [switches] to "WPT" and I could use my LNAV (instead of guessing where I'm going). When I try to do this in the 777, it's not reading the flight plan that Fly! created. Do I "have" to use the FMC in order for this to work???Also, I noticed on approach, when I clicked on the "APP" button, it was lining me up with the runway some of the time, but I didn't get the glideslope indicator in the screen as it showed in the PDF Manual.I was kind of hoping I could enjoy the aircraft without having to spend quite some time in ground school. :)Is there someone out there who could kindly advise? I'd really appreciate it! Thanks in advance!John BauderFly!II UserPalm Springs, California, USA

After you've loaded a flight plan into the fmc, fly the plane onto the green(?) navigation line on the plane's map instrument(below the Artificial Horizon). The lnav will only work when you're on it or about to intercept it. Once you're on it, the plane will stay until its destination.tony

Ok.. I guess the solution lies in finding out how to take the flight plan from Fly II and load it into the FMC. Maybe I shouldn't Evelyn Wood speed read thru the manual, huh?Thanks!John BauderFly!2K MAC/Fly II PC UserPalm Springs, California, USA

John,Realistically, you should plan on spending a couple evenings with the manual. The chapter on the FMC is very good!
