hello-I just purchased the 737 next generation software, and wow, i guess im in a bit over my head. My main problem is that whenever i increase thrust beyond say 1/5, a loud alrm sounds. I don't know why it sounds, and i can't seem to get rid of it. I have hte tried to follow the online tutorial, but no luck.can anyone give me some advice?thanksGrant

>whenever i increase thrust beyond say 1/5, a loud alrm sounds.That usually happens when your aircraft is not configured properly for takeoff - for example you don't have flaps deployed. You have to go through the checklist making sure you cover all the items.Michael J.WinXP-Home SP2,AMD64 3500+,Abit AV8,Radeon X800Pro,36GB Raptor,1GB PC3200,Audigy 2

Thrust rising above 40% N1 - Brakes are ON or being held Flaps not in takeoff position Trim out of takeoff range (green area) = TO CONFIG WARNINGBest Wishes,[h4]Randy J.

You bought the panel or the PMDG?There's a big difference.Leo
