August 17, 201114 yr Hi all, I noticed twice now a strange knob on top of my aircraft. See picture.If i reload a different aircraft it dissapears.It seems to be a bug because KLM has no radar on top :-) William S.
August 17, 201114 yr It is not a bug. Also, you can select whether you want that "knob" in different places along that top of the airplane in the PMDG settings in the CDU. "I am the Master of the Fist!" -Akuma
August 17, 201114 yr Yup. You can switch it off in the PMDG -> Aircraft -> Equipment menu on the CDU.
August 17, 201114 yr go to CDU->menu->PMDG options->aircraft->equipment->Satcom antenna, and hide it if you dont want it. edit: too late Tobias
August 17, 201114 yr Author Ok, i found it. My next question is then how is it possible that it appears randomly. I started my flight with no satcom.Is there some keystroke which changes the satcom option? William S.
August 17, 201114 yr That is aircraft specific options. Ie it is livery specific. You have have accidentally enabled it when flying the KLM NGX before, so it saved that option to that livery, but it is default disabled with the other liveries.

August 17, 201114 yr Author When i start up with that livery there is no satcom. So it is not enabled with that livery.But i will do some more checking. William S.
August 17, 201114 yr Hi all, I noticed twice now a strange knob on top of my aircraft. LMAO too funny there's also these black round things that come out of the bottom of the plane if you pull a certain lever John C
August 17, 201114 yr Author It is a BUG!. The satcom attenna appeared again during flight. When i went to the aircraft options in the FMC the satcom was not installed. William S.
August 17, 201114 yr LMAO too funny there's also these black round things that come out of the bottom of the plane if you pull a certain lever I believe that knob on the roof is the altitude adjust :( Di Agron Dell XPS 15 L502X | Intel i5-2540m @ 2.60GHz | 4GB DDR3 1333MHz (2x2GB) | nVidia GT525M | Seagate 500GB 7200RPM | 15" 1366x768 | 23" LG 1360x768 | Got a hardware question?

August 17, 201114 yr This happens when you select a different livery from the same aircraft variant. You will notice that no fan blades are displayed too.If you swith to another variant (800WL-900WL-800WL) and back again, the dome disappears and your fan blades returned. I believe that knob on the roof is the altitude adjust LOL Lennart
August 17, 201114 yr Author Yes Yes very funny. By the way i didn't change livery and the option was not installed.I got better reception on my Nokia though. William S.
