is the approach minumum thrust modeled? i see no difference between approach and flight?

What is that?

What is that?

Higher RPM at idle to help spooling up in case of needed TOGA.

Good one. Will check later. PMDG must hate us already: "Dammit, they noticed!"

i didn;t find that modeled!!

sorry, my mistake. it sure is modeled! when flaps 10 at 3000 N1 is 30 %. if i extend to flaps 15, N1 will increase to 39%! whahoo!!! i thought we just needed to extend the flaps in order to make it in the approach mode. but actually we have to be in the landing config(boeing's manual) to make it active.

Make sense. Thanks

Looks like the developers thought of EVERYTHING!!

It is modelled. I've actually only noticed it on my latest flight. Was on a hard descent towards LOWI, struggling to slow the plane down, and the last thing I needed was the engines spooling up to 39% when I put flaps 10 down LOL. The level of detail in this product is mind boggling. If you look under the MCP you can actually see the detail underneath the A/P disengage button. Simply amazing detail both graphically AND in the systems.

yes sure that's why it's brilliant. i read boeing's FCOM before NGX release! i just knew it. i am trying to find what it can't do!

Doesn't it automatically kick in with gear down?
