Today during a local flight from Bilbao to Palma de mallorcaI realized the tremendous time expended by the 767 to reach the final cruise level of 360, nearly 30 minutes.I used real wether and the flight conditions were:ATOW 131 TonnesSAT -43CLB1T wind 28ktsAfter passing level 200 the climb performance was poor, takink 30 minutes to reach the level 360 since the lift off.I'am currently using the lates version of the PIC/POSKy merge and all happears to work ok, except this climb problem.The real ones has a much better climb performance with this weight.Any comment? :-zhelp

The only thing I can think of is that in the real aircraft CLB1 (or 2) will eventually equal full climb thrust. This is, as far as I know, not the case in PIC, so you should switch to CLB when the climb performance becomes poor.Martin767 fetishistIt's a lot like life and that's what's appealing

I use 280 In the VNAV Climb Page.

Thank very much Martin for your tip.I'll try to use full CLB power and reduce the ATOW to improve the climb performance.I've read also your answer to my A/T question.I didn't know that PIC hadn't the possibilityof use the Throttle A/T disengage switch.Cheers.

Are you sure you're not using the POSKY .air file by accident? Have another look at your aircraft folder and your 'aircraft.cfg'. I'm using the PIC/POSKY merge with the PIC FDE and have not experienced any problems, but a lot of people seem to have climb problems when using the POSKY FDE.Cheers,Gosta.

I'am Just checking the POsky folder and I realized that I have two .air files, one is called Aircraft.cfg and the otherone is Wilco.cfg.I'am nor sure one of the files is the correct one and What I have to do to use the the correct one. :-( Thanks in advance

The configuration or .cfg file is not the same as the AIR file. An AIR file or FDE has a .AIR file extension.That said, you should have a configuration file named aircraft.cfg and an air file named 767 Pilot in Command Wilco Publishing.air in your POSKY folder.Try renaming the extra files - I usually change the file extension to .bak - and see if your performance improves.

Wilco.cfg is just an intermediate file in the merge process. It should be a copy of the Aircraft.cfg from the Wilco folder. The merge process merges this with another .cfg file snippet to produce the final Aircraft.cfg.Lee Hetherington (KBOS)

(PIC uses its own key assignments.)Martin767 fetishistIt's a lot like life and that's what's appealing
