Hi there.I'm using a 757 Posky aircraft with Teropas FDE version 3. Absolutly wonderful. my question is. In the aircraft.cfg file the empty weight is 175000lbs. On my PERF INIT page i can only enter ZFW of 180000 and above. why is this? Many Thanks.

ShayYou will find multiple lines of explanations on FMC usage in the readme.txt that goes with the package.Tero

Hi teropa.Nice job on the FDE. real smooth. I understand that one has to trick the fmc in order to get the correct v speeds etc but what i cant understand is if the "empty Weight" entry in the aircraft.cfg file is 175ooolbs and this is the zfw for the aircraft, why can I not enter 175000lbs in the FMC PERF INIT page. I can't get it to accept anything less than 180000lbsThanks.

Shay,See this quote from the readme:"PIC767 NOTE! This FDE can be perfectly integrated to work with the PIC767 panel. However, the PIC767 FMC uses B767 data, so a couple of things need to be noted."In other words, you can't enter 757 weights, because you're dealing with a 767 FMC and thus with 767 weights. (!= 757 weights)Tero

hi teropa..I understand now..Thanks. And thanks for the FDE. real slick..Shay.

"Teropas FDE version 3"?What is this, and how is it related to the 767. Am I missing something good here?Eytan

Teros 757-200 .Great file.ONE QUESTION FOR TERO OR ANYBODY ELSE.Mabey i am missing something here.There seems to be realy good reading material for certain planes DF737.PMDG737/6,7,8,9 that you can get for free on the web,but i cant seem to find much out there for the 767/757.I have DF737.PMDG737/6,7 and of course PIC767 and TEROS 757 version3.There are a few good boeing 737 sites out there, BUT WITHOUT BYING A 767/757 AOM I cant find much out there.I do have the manual provided by WILCO for the PIC767 also some info here at AVSIM but i would like some more reading information than that EXPECIALLY FOR THE 757-200.Does anybody know where i should look, or is it something that i have to pay for.Thanks,NEBOJSA

Hi NEBOJSAyou could try..www.757.org.uk or www.767.org.uk both useful sites.

Nebojsa,Try Mike Ray's 757/767 simulator checkride guide. It's one helluva book.Btw, We have it at Simradar as the monthly prize every now and then.Tero
