Random question I've had about the NGX for about two years now but can't seem to ever find the time or resources to look up... on the Rear Overhead Panel, on both left and right IRS switches, the selectors may be rotated to ""Align", yet I have no idea what this option does. I understand how to align the IRS systems, and how they detect movement of the aircraft, but where could I find an explanation as to what the "Align" feature does/is used for??? Searched FCOM 2 for an answer but have not yet discovered one. Help anybody??? Thanks

PMDG FCOM v2 11.10.21 (pp821)

 

About 5 minutes of reading.

Amazing  what  you can find  in the fcom 

Why? FCOM is not called FCOM for kicks. Stuff like this is supposed to be there.

I know why it's called an FCOM, I fly the MQ-1C for the Army and we have FCOMs for our aircraft as well. I was just asking for a simple reference, FABO.

True  but  he  did  give  you  the reference  page number  etc,   and  i just did  a simple  test  took me  less than 2  minutes   to come up with the same  results  by using the search option   so you don't  need  to read  the whole  fcom  to find  your  solution.

And also I was not talking to you, ANDREMORGAN16.

 

Peter> seems like there was the hint of sarcasm that I did not get in the original post. My appologies...

Wow, tough crowd in the NGX forums. Hope I don't ever have to ask a question.
