Question concerning trim setting (TO) 757

Featured Replies

Hello,In a previous message Jet Tech wrote :"Marc,If you are setting the Trim in the Green Band as per the manual, you will have to have arms like the Terminator to get this puppy airborn. There is a minor bug in the way the Stab Trim Indicator was drawn from what I can tell. With the Stab at neutral, the indicator shows 8 units. The actual stab neutral setting should be 4 units. I'm sure you can see how this can be become a problem. This was a very late find in the Beta so I don't think it has been addressed yet. What I do is assume that 8 units is neutral and trim to about 9 units for take-off. Luckily the T/O Configuration Warning system doesn't appear to monitor the Stab Setring on this model so you can operate this way until the visual is corrected.RegardsPaul"Here is my question : is there a way to configure TO Stabilizer settings according the manual (so the trim setting is a function of the % MAC ***) ?Jet Tech, you said that neutral should be at 4 but for the 757 PMDG it is at 8... Is this difference (8-4=4) always the same ?So, my guest would be that if I look in the manual and that a I see that TO Stab setting is 6 for my actual configuration, then in the aircraft I would set 10 because I take the difference into account ...Do you think it's a good way to go round this problem ?Maybe software developpers could give their comments about this...When will this issue be fixed ?Thank you !MarcVarlamoff*** To calculate the %MAC, I do the following calculus :(6.08*(CG : example 30/100))/16.641 + 24/100 = 35 %MAC
