September 10, 200916 yr Hey all,Congratulations for the superb J41 simulation!I don't seem to have any problem starting up this lovely bird, thanks to the impresive tutorial, documentation and the You-Tube tutorial on top of this forum.However I can't puzzle how to start the FMC. I have the engines turning (power supply available) and master avionics on (so every other bell and whistle working) except when I push the "ON" button on the center top row of the J41 FMC, nothing happens. No display etc...quid?For sure I am missing something here, but stay puzzled about this over here, so maybe someone might help me out!Thanks a lot in advanceHans,Brugge, BELGIUM

September 12, 200916 yr hey thanks Ulf will have a look into that!ThanksHansI have found that the FMC powers up OK when first loading the a/c saved situation for the tutorial, but doesn't seem to re-start after the avionics master is turned back on after engine start. I can imagine that in real life you would want to program the FMC prior to starting the engines as this is burning fuel for the time it takes to do it, but a work around seems to be to save a situation where you have atsrted the engines and turned back on the avionics master, then re-load that situation and the FMC will come on- then do the flight planning with the engines running.This may be a fluke, but it worked for me several times.Thanks, Bruce.

September 12, 200916 yr Author An update for fellow pilots with the same "blank" FMS screen at start up (whilst everything else running just fine), It seems to me that re-installing the Acceleration DVD (in repair mode) and reinstalling the PMDG J41 (also in repair mode) did the trick as the pinned post J41 SP1 STATUS UPDATE AND ISSUE TRACKING: http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=260162 Will report back when still in troubles,so-for now- in a hurry to get this lady (J41 ) up in the air again :( ,greetz,Hans
September 12, 200916 yr I found that the FMC doesn't display if I load fscopilot as required by fsinn. Did anyone test this configuration in beta?
