Mick,There are some issues with the shipped cold and dark scenario. Try starting from a cold and dark Cessna and switch to the Queen, set up everything as you would like it and save it.Hope it helps,

It worked for me. It fixes the FLCH from being "stuck" on. It's from the PMDG FAQ: "My autopilot is messed up after starting cold/dark " There is a bug in the cold/dark flight file provided with the 747. To fix it, either create a cold/dark flight with another aircraft and then load the 747 or open FS9/PMDG/747400/PanelState/PMDG 747-400 Cold and Dark PKAE.sav and change LVLCHG=0 to LVLCHG=1---------------- John
