Spoiler wind sound - Is it me, or ..?

Featured Replies

Hi,When using the spoiler I hear the wind sound. However when retracting the spoiler again, the wind sound stays on. Anyone else noticed this?Egbert

They shut off for me. Are you using the / key to retract them or the / key?There is a problem with the / key retracting due to MS's not liking the spoilers being part way deployed ... doesn't seem to understand the difference between deployed in flight position and fully deployed on the ground to stop the plane.Ray

Ray is on the money once again =). You can deploy then with "/" but not stow them with this same command. Bring up the throttle panel and manually set them. You can use SHIFT / to ARM them...

Always watch your spoiler lever when deploying and stowing!!LOLTGIF,

Bah, these engines are big enough to overpower the spoiler! hahahaExercise in stress, land with your spoilers already deployed! watch the poor N1 levels in the red :-)Ray

Ahh OK,On the throttle quadrant I checked if the lever was in the upright position again and it was. I will check it again.
