February 25, 200620 yr I've spent about 2 mos. hand flying the Queen without doing an FMC flight. Today I hand-programmed a flight with a lot of wp, short, about 260nm, 550K lbs ToW.I just landed at Langkawi, ex-WMKK, on 744 in MAS colors. Unbelievably successful first FMC flight. Everything was 100% right from start to finish in VNAV+LNAV. Thrust reduction, accel alt, waypoint nav, descent, VTK adjusted to perfect, ILS auto tuned to destination rwy, crabbed in heavy x-breez in, kicked the rudder at flare, tremendous, wow!Superb work, PMDG. Really great.
