July 1, 200322 yr Hi!I have just taken my new and shiny 737-NG out for a spin! :D But I sat there on the runway for 15minutes looking for the TOGA button to take off.. Finally I desided to control the throttles manually.. So here I am, asking: Where is that TOGA button? I tried to go through the prosedure that I learned from the Official Boeing 737-NG Computer Based Training program, but was halted by that missing TOGA button.....
July 1, 200322 yr Commercial Member It's the "N1" button on the MCP - works very similar to a 757/767...Ryan Ryan MaziarzFor fastest support, please submit a ticket at http://support.precisionmanuals.com
July 1, 200322 yr Actually, we simulated the TO/GA button by clicking on the top left screw of the MCP. You will notice the cursor changes into a hand for button pushing.Ryan - the N1 button should not be used as TO/GA button.Try it out!All this and more will be in the manuals once they are released.Sincerely,
July 1, 200322 yr Isn't there supposed to be an TOGA button on the throttle quadrant? I am almost positive on that, but I'll check my 737-NG CBT to comfirm that..
July 1, 200322 yr Yes, in the real NG the TO/GA push buttons are on the throttle levers.That's why I mentioned that we *simulated* the TO/GA button by hitting the top left screw of the MCP. It is not possible to have a separate push function on a moving lever in FS. As such, we chose to simulate it by pressing the area around the screw.
July 1, 200322 yr Also, when you have to go-around, you don't really want to open the throttle view, find the button, press it... close the view...You'd be already on concrete...anthonyAnthony MertonPrecision Manuals Developmenthttp://www.precisionmanuals.com
July 1, 200322 yr Ah... Ok.. Thanks.. :D I was looking for it on the Throttle quadrant.. Expected it to be in a "DF737" style, but it was genius to simulate it on that top left MCP screw.. :D I'll test it right away! BTW, I was writing my last reply, at the same time as you were posting yours, so I didn't see the reply until now.. :)
