Hi Bryan,

 

At times my landing lights won't be activated by the FO when going below 10k, (this happens most times).

 

Last night my checklist order would not automatically o to the next section - final cockpit prep>before start flow etc etc, and if I moved it manually usin te right arrow key, when it sould have been on the before start flow, it read out the  final cockpit prep checklist.

 

There are a few minor things like this - is it down to me by changing views? going to spot view etc at wrong times or something?

 

IRS wont be shut down most times also.

 

Question though, - at what point do I do a hyd pressure test?

 

Thanks

Hi Paul,

 

If you're constantly switching views all the times, it's possible that the FO is not able to apply his simulated mouse click to the mini pop up panel.

 

That's the only way I can explain that it works sometimes, but not all the time.  Also refly the tutorial flight to ensure you're not missing anything.

 

Hyd pressure test, I don't remember off hand.  The MD-11 is around 5 years old :-)  I'll have to try to dig up the manual.

Hi Bryan,

 

I will give it a shot.

 

Thanks

You should get the brilliant MD-11 / FS2Crew flow document from the FS2Crew website made by a guy called Schwarz (?). It shows the workload split between PF and PM in a very logic way related to time.

Hi Morten,

 

I will take a look, thanks
