Hi Byork, I have seen that in Circuit Training mode the FO set flaps 15 immediately after touchdown, in accordance with standard procedures for touch and go. Could it be possible to include in the FO flow also the trim reset to take off value ?ThanksRegards

Should be able to, no promises but we'll try.

Yes Bryan, the Flaps are in as stated, but I think he is asking if there is a possibility that you can also get he FO to reset the aircraft's trim to the take off trim setting like 5.1 units or something..I assume it would have to be a generic value due to individual weights of each touch and go but if it could be reset to back to something that can release the pressure on the pilot yoke etc.

5.0-5.5 is fine

I don't know what happens in the real world, but what If I access the Take Off page in the CDU Init Ref, say during the downwind leg, set flaps 15 and have the new TO trim set calculated, I have the exact TO Trim setting for flaps 15 and for your actual weight. This could be read by your FO as reference value to have the exact trim reset after touchdown. However, I also believe that any value between 5.0 and 5.5 could be fine.Thanks anyway for taking this request in consideration.Regards

I have also noticed that in Circuit Training mode some trigger actions seem not to be appropriate for such mode (unless I am doing something wrong, which is more than likely): for instance the trigger action for F/O After Take Off is flaps up, but if you are in a circuit training you will never go flaps up (after the first take off you will leave flaps 5 until close to base leg, if on a subsequent take off you will go from flaps 15 to 5 before downwind leg). This results in After Take Off flow to be selected manually and not automatically. Likewise, unless you fly a very long final leg, you will hear the PA announcing "cabin ready for landing" while on the new take off roll after touch down (ideally PA announcements should not be used during circuit training mode) . What's your view on this ? Is it me doing something wrong ?Anyway, this product is fantastic..! I have been using since it was released and I could not fly without it. Eventually today I made a flight without using it (probably the first time I flew without it since it was released), and ......the cockpit seemed ...empty..! It is unbelievable how much "environment" this product can create even on a very realistic add-on as the NGX.Thanks a lot...!Regards

Jackson, I'll look at the circuits again and update for SP1 as necessary.Cheers,
