July 7, 201015 yr The FMC limits takeoff speeds to 160 kts. In the Takeoff Speeds charts from 01_TAKEOFF_PERFORMANCE_737_678900_V14.pdf there are quite a few values over 160 (e.g., 166 for B738, flap 1, 180k lbs). Is there a way to change this FMC limitation?Thanks,Stacey Stacey Weaver Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit Intel Core i7 875K, 2.93GHz (OC 3.6GHz) 8GB DDR3 1600 30GB 2.5" SATA MLC-SSD (Main Boot Up Drive), 1TB (1 x 1TB) SATA-II 3.0Gb/s 7200RPM HDD, 128GB SSD dedicated for FSX NVIDIA GeForce GTX 465 1GB PCI-Express Asetek 120mm Liquid Cooling System 2 x ASUS 24" Widescreen HD LCD Monitor DVI CH Yoke, Pedals, Throttle Quadrant

July 7, 201015 yr Author Not sure what you are referring to, I am not seeing where the FMC is limiting take off speed? Did you review the FMC USER'S MANUAL 8 - 37?Any time I've tried to enter a speed greater than 160, I've always received and error message (Invalid value or something similar). Have you had a different experience?Stacey WeaverWinXP SP3FS9 737-600/700/800/900 Stacey Weaver Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit Intel Core i7 875K, 2.93GHz (OC 3.6GHz) 8GB DDR3 1600 30GB 2.5" SATA MLC-SSD (Main Boot Up Drive), 1TB (1 x 1TB) SATA-II 3.0Gb/s 7200RPM HDD, 128GB SSD dedicated for FSX NVIDIA GeForce GTX 465 1GB PCI-Express Asetek 120mm Liquid Cooling System 2 x ASUS 24" Widescreen HD LCD Monitor DVI CH Yoke, Pedals, Throttle Quadrant
