good evening

 

    Today I got the NGX for the first time.   Now I seem to be having trouble with the engines.

I know it might sound like completely stupidity and not only have I read the manual and searched the boards

but how do you shut the engines down?

 

I don't know if this is way more advanced then the 747-400X which I seem to have either mastered or it is really simple

but this engine problem is kinda driving me bonkers

 

 

 

thanks all for your help in advance

Same way you shut all engines down in modern airliners. Use the fuel cutoff switches. However, remember to have the electrical system properly transferred to the APU or a ground source or else you are going to find yourself in a gloomy flight deck when the generators go offline once the engines stop spinning. 

AS above.............1 APU on 2 Fuel Switches to off......its as simple as that..Happy flying.......

hi all

 

 

wow I must be getting the brain fried eyes because I can't find the fuel switches

 

I know there is no throttle section on the NGX so it has to be on the panels

but that is seeming to elude me

 

 

 

thanks

You must be in the VC... there is no 2D panels of the throttles. 

 

Look @ http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/7792/201092016356896.png

 

I know thats the default one, but same thing on all 737's.

 

Have you read the manual :-)

hi Flyerboy

 

  I know for sure I am in the 2d panel because I can't move around the cockpit with the joystick hat

if I move left I see out the window same with the right

 

in fact I cannot see the throttles at all in this state

and the manual said this

 

"there is no 2d panel for the throttle console area"

 

 

 

thanks for all your help

You are correct. Any adjustments to the throttles, fuel cut off, trim setting must be done from the VC.
