Not sure what you're looking for. As far as I'm aware, ours are already set up with the proper config.

I found some things not set right like there should not be range rings on the ND - David Lee

The Cathay ones have the generic configuration as we can not verify the accurate configuration of these. The only verified are the CargoLogic Air and the Atlas ones.

Hi David,

I created a 100% accurate CPA config with the help of a CPA B744/B748 captain. The only thing not configurable is the transponder panel, CPA optioned the same unit they have on the B77W fleet. Rotary knobs instead of the keyboard style one. 

I PM you a link tonight, to download both the B744ERF and B748 .ini files.

The good thing is that all 14 -8s are configured the same.

On the -400ERF some have the digital MCP and some are analogue. All were delivered with the digital MCP, however it is interchangeable with the part number with the older one from the -400, so they are replaced with whichever one is available on the line.

If anyone ever has verified stuff, we're always looking for that kind of thing.

I bought it today and downloaded the -400F for LX-VCV. One small option does not look right, CV has the radio alt above adi. And no smoking sign? I do not believe either as the airplane came fresh from the Boeing factory as a freighter although I could not find a setting to turn off the seatbelt sign. Additionally Cargolux might all have callouts for 100 Feet on the official config they have no 100 ft callout. - David Lee
