I noticed that upon reaching Cruise the thrust setting doesn’t switch from CLB to CRZ.  I have to manually set it in the FMC.   If I recall this should happen automatically.  Could someone clarify?

Thanks

Incorrect.

It is a company option.

PMDG SETUP > AIRCRAFT > EQUIPMENT > Page 9/19 FMS > CRZ PHASE THRUST LIMIT

(Explained on page 186 of the Intro, and something that has been in there since the 744, actually - same option in that simulation as well.)

Thank you!  I’ve never had to select that option in the 744 it automatically switch when I’ve done flights before.  Maybe it pre determined by livery

Correct - something the Intro Manual also covers. Worth a read.

Yea, I haven’t read that in a while.  I should probably go through and re familiarize myself with some of the details.  Thanks again for the quick response!
