Wow! she's just lovely!

[MVelasquez 12]

Wow, quick take off with those engines.

[777simmer 117]

haha, a bit low on weight there hey :-)

 

But the video realy shows how beautifull she is made.

Both by Boeing and PMDG!

Even a nice steep climb there to show the power, looks beautifull to me,

Thanks PMDG and Froogle.

:wink:

 

Guss.

Is there a TOGA click spot on the MCP? I didn't see on the video how the T/O power was set.

Yes I think there was, when he clicks the "screw" to engage TOGA

I've seen it in another video it is as usual with PMDG on a screw on the bottom left of the throttle if I'm correct

Beautiful video! 

 

I noticed that N1 in Climb-1 was only about 87%.  Seems low.  Does anyone know if the computers adjust the Climb thrust targets according to the gross weight of the aircraft?

 

Thanks,

Mike

Don't send the angry mob after me, but my opinion, the engine sounds aren't that great. I really hope it's just the quality of the recording.

RELEASE THE HOUNDS

Curious... doesn't the FADEC prevent you going beyond the N1 limit? I thought it did.

 

Best regards,

Ya me too, it went past the TO thrust setting and then reduced back!

Because he didn't initiate TOGA when you're meant to (once engines stable around 55% N1- tsk tsk  ) he put his throttles to full going up to the N1 limit, THEN activating TOGA which brought the thrust down to the Takeoff N1.

Yep you are not supposed to shove the throttle forward on takeoff like Concorde lol
