August 3, 200322 yr Q1. Should the sweep hand really work in ET mode? (According to one airline's Maintenance Manual, it shouldn't. It should stay at the 12 o'clock position unless the Chrono is running). With the sweep hand operating in ET mode, it's easy to see what the ET is doing wrong however.... :(Q2. According to the Maintenance Manual, if you push the ET button for a second time, it pauses the ET display. In PMDG, it blanks the ET display. If you push the button a third time, the display should continue counting. The only way I can get the ET to stop is to hit the reset then the ET switch quickly... but even then, the ET seems to jump 20 seconds when I hit the ET switch again.Q3. Should the ET Reset function make the time return to zero AND make the ET start running again? It would seem more logical that the ET display should reset to zero and blank (If I understand the Maintenance Manual correctly, the display should blank after 5 seconds).Thanks.Cheers.Ian.P.S. By the way, are there any 737NG pilots or engineers on the beta teams to confirm the correct operation of the new clock?
