November 24, 201015 yr Just out of curiosity when I read through the manuals and stuff from smartcockpit.com:I remember to have seen the "procedure turn >" prompt on the MCDU of the sim plane, but it was kind of grayed out and I faintly remember that it was not selectable by the respective LSK. The PMDG FMS manual says that this feature is described somewhere under advanced techniques or so, but there's nothing about procedure turns.Should that feature be available?

November 24, 201015 yr Regardless whether it is available or not, the chances are almost zero that aircraft of the class of MD-11 would ever need to execute a procedure turn. Unless perhaps you fly in some remote part of Africa or Siberia and trying to land at some abandoned airport out of radar coverage. Do you have something else to worry about? Michael J.
November 24, 201015 yr Author Regardless of whether it's used or not in real world: Is this eye candy only in the PMDG MD-11? Just wanted to know if is's functional at all or not... Andreas, LOWW - Nihil sumus et fuimus mortales. Respice, lector: In nihil ab nihilo quam cito recidimus.
