how to hold only the altitute

Featured Replies

hello, in PIC767 how can I hold only the altitute? I found that when I press ONLY the altitute hold button, the autopilot will not only hold the altutute but also steer the aircraft toward the heading in the heading window.

I have no problem using the ALT HOLD with PIC. Are you using the FMC with LNAV selected? You say you ONLY select the ALT button but if that's the case how does the auto pilot engage without selecting anything other than ALT HOLD? Are you using a saved flight? Give a little more detail Marvel.Best Wishes,Randy J. [email protected]" A little learning is a dangerous thing"AMD XP2100 |MUNCHKIN512 DDR RAM |ECS[/b ]K7S5A MB |[b]GF364 MEG |WIN XP PRO

"I found that when I press ONLY the altitute hold button, the autopilot will not only hold the altutute but also steer the aircraft toward the heading in the heading window. "This is the way it should work (as it does in real life on 767's which do not have CWS (Control Wheel Steering) buttons on the MCP). Only aircraft which have Control Wheel Steering can do this (and this is not modelled in PIC) I'm sure that you'll find that this is mentioned in the manual or the FAQ's ;-)Cheers.Ian.
