I've been trying to fly FS9 flight plans manually but when ATC asks me to change course I cant seem to get the autopliot to do this.Could someone tell me which buttons i need to pree,and in which sequence?Ta J Nair

Hi mr Nair, If you can't get your Otto (Autopilot) to do the job for you, you'd better take over yourself. Disconnect it and use your yoke or joystick to steer! ;-)But I guess that's not the answer you're looking for? Well, here's another answer you don't look for either. Start with reading the manuals for the NG. It will give you answers to many of questions like this one. The manuals can be found here: http://www.precisionmanuals.com/downloads/..._MANUALS_V1.ZIPOk, Now when you know. I'll tell you what to do. ;-) Turn your HDG knob so that the heading bug in the ND points in your flight direction then press the HDG SEL button. This will tell Otto to fly whereever you set the heading bug. So now turn the heading knob to your desired heading and the plane will follow.Hope it helps,
