helloi've just bought fs2crew 2010 edition for the default 737 for fsx. im not exactly the most pro pilot out there, in fact im still learning all of the advanced stuff in jets. i have to say im loving fs2 crew so far, it adds so much life to the fsx world. in fact its should be compulsory for everyone to buy this addon when they buy fsx :( I have been having some problems though. for example during taxi the FA never contacts me to say that the cabin is secured. also after take off i tell the FO to put the gear up, and he says that he is, but he never does it. on further inspection i discovered that only the nose wheel would go up, not the main gear. the same was also happening using the handle in the VC view. i will admit however this has only happened once so maybe that was just random.One thing that always happens though is that i tell the FO to set the auto pilot and he does, but then when i tell him to turn the auto pilot on i just start losing altitude and there is nothing i can do. the FO also refuses to turn the auto pilot off again. but if i press control-Z and also control-H then its all fine again. this problem though might be just me.(EDIT - just to clarify i do tell him to set a heading and speed and altitude and vertical speed but i always just go down)oh and another problem im having. after push back has been completed and i do the before taxi check list, the engines, i then think yay now i can taxi, but just as im about to go i realise that the engines are off, even though i've already been through the engine start procedure with the FO and have seen that the engines do come on. and yet another problem is that sometimes when i load an existing flight plan that i have and start off at a gate, the push back truck and other trucks for me are all invisible. they still work and i can still get push back, but no trucks can be seen.the other problem is that after taking off and supposedly putting the gear up, (EDIT - and flaps up of course) i simply cannot get the FO to do the after take off check list. i've tried saying 'after take off check list' and it does recognise it, but nothing happens. this was on the same flight that the gear wouldn't go up though i should mention. (EDIT - and one more thing i've just remembered. coming up to 10,000 feet, the FO says something like 1000 to go, but then after that he doesn't seem to do anything even when we pass 10,000. the cabin crew doesn't seem to say anything and the fs2 main panel still says initial climb)Another issue that im having is that if i contact the FA by pressing the button and then ask for some lunch, they never say anything back. also now that i think of it i've never been called by the cabin at all. and i promise only one more problem now, sometimes i notice that the brakes are on for no reason during taxi and after take off. the brake button for me is my trigger on the joystick. after take off there is nothing i can do about it as well, my usual way of just tapping the trigger a few times has no effect any more. I should also mention that i've been reading the appendix sections in the manual over and over and i've been reading up everything i can so i have been trying to find the answers. also on a related note does anyone know where online i might be able to find a really good guide to the default 737 maybe with also a layout of where all the controls can be found.anyway thankyou for any help that any one can give me. i would love to feel the full satisfaction of actually having a sucessful flight with fs2crew and im getting desperate to solve all of these problems. logan

Hi,Please ensure you've installed SP1.Also, please watch the training videos and follow the tutorial flight in the manual to the letter.Also, are you using any mods for the 737? Things like only part of the gear would come up suggest some other outside interference. All the FS2Crew FO does is raise the gear handle.Training & Demo Videos (default and pmdg versions):

Best,
