May 5, 20197 yr Hi everyone I have noticed this for years and just put up with it but thought someone might know what the problem is. When I land and pull the throttles to idle there remains some residual thrust in the engines until I push the throttles forward a bit again and then back to idle. It only happens with the PMDG B737. I have the PMDG B777 plus TFDi B717, Flight 1 Mustang, Vertex DA62 and have no issues with any other aircraft.

May 5, 20197 yr Barra, what is your "residual thrust", resp. which N1 value do you read? Sure you disabled A/T on manual approach(?).
May 6, 20197 yr Author Hi Pegaso, residual thrust is about 31%N1. Yes A/T is off at around 1000' agl as is A/P. Regards Barra i7 7700K, 16GB 3200MHz DDR4, GTX1070 OC 8GB, 1TB Samsung SSD for OS and P3D4.4, W10 64Bit, Corsair H115i Water Cooling
June 16, 20196 yr There are different levels of idle just so you know depending on which phase of the flight you are in Scott Kalin VATSIM #1125397 - KPSP Palm Springs International AirportSpace Shuttle (SSMS2007) http://www.space-shu....com/index.htmlOrbiter 2010P1 http://orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/
July 9, 20196 yr As above. FADEC logic is such that in the air on approach, FLIGHT IDLE is about 31-32%%. The autothrottle will put it up to 42% quite often even when you want to slow to final speed, which is a bit annoying if you are still trying to get your final flap out and the magic 1000aal company limit is looming... Anyway, once WOW is sensed, Ground Idle is enabled. This is more 23-25% and (always dependant on airflow through the fan). Try just leaving them back and watching the N1 drop after landing.
