MD-11 GW/CG

[Guest EndersCW]

hey, When I try to set-up the FMC after an arrival i get stuck on the INIT 2 page, the problem is when i set the fmc up for the first leg it calculates the center of gravity and the GW self, but when preparing for the next leg i have to fill in the CG and the GW self.How can i calculate that or when can i see it? so i can fil in the FMC.Cheers,Wouter

Use right mouse click on those fields. That should work.

Or to be more precise: use rightclick to automatically enter the right number in the scratchpad and then use lefclick to actually enter it into the MCDU. (I was used from other planes that a rightclick would enter the right data at once, but it doesn't work that way with the MD-11, which led me to believe for a day or two the option just didn't work... until I by luck noticed the right number appear on the scratchpad... so that's why I though it would be a good idea to add the whole procedure here... :(
