FMC Question

Featured Replies

I have no idea why the aircraft is not adhering to the speeds to the legs listed in the fmc, any help would be great, thank you.

Do you have VNAV, LNAV and CMD A on? What are the speeds and at what altitude?

Hi Guys pmdglover sure do buddy, as for screenshot I will have to post tomorrow night getting late here, maybe you can help me after I post it tomorrow night, thanks.

Alright but what altitude are you at trying to get the Autopilot to follow the speeds at? If they are speeds over 240 knots and under 10k feet, then the speeds you set in the FMC legs page will not be followed through I believe.

Yeah it does O_O Idk what it could be man... uhh what is the plane actually doing? Is it doing anything like trying to follow the speed?

Its following flight level but speeds are to fast, might be my new ch throttle quadrant, I think I will shut down the throttles and use my yoke throttle, that could be it, even my AT keeps disconnecting, did a quick flight after shutting down those throttles and seemed much better so I will try an official fmc try again tomorrow night, appreciate your help.
