Can’t help you with the jetway issue - perhaps this is something to do with GSX and where the aircraft door is? 

The trim on the 777 is set just prior to engine start and the trim setting is given on the page in the FMC on the opposite side to the V speeds. The before start flow is fuel pumps on, hydraulic pumps to auto (turning on the right side first) and then use the pitch trim switches on the yoke to set the desired trim, using the scale readout to the left of the thrust levers.

Thanks for the help........Ok no worries then for the jetways/jet bridge.  As for the trim I have have tried everything from using the Honeycomb yoke to asssign it to, the throttle quandrant and the joystick (Tiller), but no avail I dont know

what Im I missing or doing wrong. Whichever I use it doesnt move and if it does its very little. but stays around 4. I do not have pedals. I been researching videos, msg, ect but havent found any that will tell me the exact cause.

I also have install the 2024 driver from Honeycomb. Everything else is working fine.  Thanks for the help very appreciative.

I use the trim buttons on the Yoke to set the trim. Well, the bindings I have to the yoke but you get the picture.

Thanks for the Help.......I Very appreciated. I finally found the issue. I found that I had to disable the Assist Pilot trim in the Assistance Tab that kept me from setting the trim. 

Once again thanx for your Help.
