747-8 FMC Freeze

Featured Replies

Hi all / Robert,

I love the -8 amazing, however I was into a flight from YSSY to YBCS for my third short haul test. After approx 2.0hrs and preparing the FMS for the STAR and APP the FMC froze however the flight was still continuing.

I loaded the approach and went to execute and it wouldn't sequence and the white light on EXEC was still highlighted and no cursor clicks could change menu pages on FMC. Map to Plan rotational knob would not work as the flight continued as normal. All other features still had full functionality.

Any ideas guys?

 

Regards

Steve

Most probably you loaded a LOC approach which currently will have this behavior. This is fixed on the update planed to be released by end of this week. For now use ILS only or RNAV approaches.
