Speed Brake Arm Light

Featured Replies

Hello,Is it a bug or just me? I arm the speed brake with "shift-/" as in the 737-600 and the panel light don't come on nor do I see the lever move to the arm pos.Thanks,-DSwww.wspilots.com

To arm the speedbrake, click on the lower part of the handle in 2D panel, click again to disarm.

I am having the same problem.The keyboard command "shift" + "/" does NOT arm the speed brake, but "/" does extend the speed brake. Every other aircraft I have in FS2004, including the PMDG 737-700, recognizes shift-/ as a keyboard command for arming the speed brake.Is there a keyboard programming error for arming the speed brake, or is this a new procedure introduced on the 800/900?

The behaving is diffrent after the update. you need the mouse and the throttle view. otherview it won't arm the spoiler.If PMDG could fix that.CheersMartin
