December 24, 201114 yr PMDG NGX I have problems with the touch and go procedureWhat I try to do is a IFR flight as thisTaking off from airport A and doing a touch and go at airport B (rolling out for 5 sec) taking off and do the same thing on airport C and DMy problem is that my flight plan is gone and while flying I have to program my FMC again.Who can explain me the exact procedure for such training?
December 24, 201114 yr This is normal. Always when you land, and go below a certain speed (I think it was 80 kts), then the flightplan will be removed from the FMC. I think the PERF INIT data will always be removed when you touch the ground. Arjen Vandervelde
December 24, 201114 yr As far as I know FMC is not used for T&G procedure, so you will hand fly or simply use basic AP functions.When the aircraft lands FMC will dump some data and this is normal. Regards Andrea Daviero
December 24, 201114 yr This is annoying - I agree. But it happens in the real 737. When I did the touch and gos in the LevelD Full motion Sim last month, every time I landed I had to re-load the weights, dep air port, arrival airport and all that "stuff" again. On the real (and Level D) 767, this doesn't happen. I wonder why Boeing made the 737 with the wipeout feature? But yet again, the PDMG 737 is exactly like the real thing. Paul Gugliotta
