Autothrottle manual override not working

Featured Replies

Im a keyboard simmer and I've set authrottle manual override to always but when I'm 100ft from the ground, I press F1, but the engines always throttle back up to maintain MCP speed. I'm confused because 1. I moved the throttles while autothrust was on and it didn't give me manual control. 2. The 737 is supposed to idle automatically when flaring. 

So why does it throttle up to maintain mcp?

Angelo,

This is for Joystick usage only From the introduction manual "This option allows you to decide how you want the autothrottle react to changes in your joystick throttle position". This will not work with keyboard.
