January 19, 201214 yr HI all,Many time wondering what are those three little switches with numbers in the right top of the Capt. yoke (or left top in the FO yoke). See pic attached. Thanks Ivan Lewis PMDG B737NGX, B777 and B747v3 QOTS II
January 19, 201214 yr The pilots can turn the numbers on the yoke to match the flightnumber. That makes it a lot easier to remember you flightnumber when you have 6 flights a day all with a different number. Greetings from the 737 flightdeck!

Thanks to both for cleared me up ;) Ivan Lewis PMDG B737NGX, B777 and B747v3 QOTS II
January 19, 201214 yr Author I've check this on the NGX and, of course, is modeled. But what about flight numbers with 4 digits? Ivan Lewis PMDG B737NGX, B777 and B747v3 QOTS II
January 19, 201214 yr Well then you are out of luck :) Different airlines/pilots use this for different things. One use I have seen is setting reference airspeed. --Peter Fabian
