August 29, 200916 yr Hi,I haven't seen this posted before and I'm curious about wich engine display are you using in your MD-11. Is it Dial or Tape and the main question, why are you uing this. I'm personally using dial, but thinking I should try tape, too. For those who are using it, why do you thing it's better?thanks,Gr, Aljaz Prislan

As far as I'm aware very few companys used the tape option, KLM being one of them.anyway I follow FEDEX SOP so use dials :)RegardsRob Rob Prest
August 29, 200916 yr Oh, just like I thought. I was asking becouse I've seen KLM's cockpit on airliners.netBtw, where did you get those FEDEX's SOP from?regards, Aljaz

However if you any specific questions regarding SOP I would be happy to answer.BTW The Cargo section of www.airlinepilotforums.com/ is full off UPS, FEDEX guys, just dont ask silly questions or say your MD11 type rating consists of 200 hours in FS9/FSX :)Rob Rob Prest
August 29, 200916 yr I personally use the tape display because i can differenciate more rapidly the engines parameters ;)
