I don't know how to put the PSS on AP. I've looked everywhere and see no documentation on how to program the FMC. After purchasing the plane, I love the look and flight characteristics, but now it's time to do some IFR flying.Can this plane use the Microsoft GPS for Autopilot flight? Stan

The tutorials give quite good information on programming the FMC, which isn't as complex by far as that in the 747 or A320 and therefore doesn't need a thick manual of its own.>FMC.

AFAIK real Dash 8s have no Microsoft GPS linked with the autopilot so PSS didn't incorporate it either.

PSS has all their manuals on the support page for their website along with the tutorialshttp://www.avsim.com/pages/robert/kirkland.jpg

Hi Robert,Hmmmm a 17K graphic signature. Now I thought that would be a no no :-)

Thanks Went to Support page and downloaded two files. I'm looking forward to learning the FMC tomorrow. Why do you get a chuckle from me saying the Microsoft GPS? I like it. It works for me. Stan
