April 27, 200422 yr I just purchased your product and I'm thrilled.... Itsgreat. However, I'm having a hard time flying it. I tried doing a take off and after I rotated I tried turning on the MCP. I clicked heading select to 340 and nothing happened. I set spped to 230kts and it never go there. I even selected alt of 23,000 and I can't get there. Am I missing something or just doing all the wrong things. Please help!Darrenman

You can also select VNAV (if programmed) and select LNAV. This is just basic stuff to get you UP, it's not saying that you can ONLY do it this way.. [h4]Best Wishes,Randy J.
