problem with Aerosoft ATR - 42/72

[Guest]

I don't understand why the FMC doesn't want to take the ZFW: when I enter it, it displays Invalid Entery. Also the flight plan isn't displayed on the HSI.Thank you for helping meWinglep

Hi,For the ZFW I just hit the button next to the ZFW without entering any figures.As for the flightplan not showing on the HSI you need a COMPLETE flightplan in the FMC before it will show, also the buttons on the HSI control panel need to be set to map, and FMC nav source.Dan.

Head over to the eurowings forum and you should find some threads there.http://www.digital-aviation.de/ewpforum/viewtopic.php?t=819http://www.digital-aviation.de/ewpforum/viewtopic.php?t=1345You can also read my solution there to the very same problem (which was changing the regional settings in Windows so that . is used for decimal instead of ,In PIC767 I had the same problem with setting the ZFW and that was also corrected with that adjustment./Krister

Try entering the ZFW in KG's. I also tried entering it in pounds but figured it only takes KG.
