    T7 questions

    Hi,Ususally the product is stable now and flys nicely for hours. I noticed a couple of "issues"? or maybe not?1. LOGO lights are not controlled by the LOGO light switch. It will always stay ON unless you press the "L" KB command which will turn off all lights (no good).2. In LNAV when a sharp turn is coming the LNAV will start the turn too early. Comparing this behaviour to other products of teh same scale it certainly does it too early. See screenshot. The airplane starts the turn at least 5NM before the waypoint.3. During two flights (11 hours and 2 hours) I have seen the FMC "going crazy" at least twice. I know this is not a definite term but atleast once the flight plan simply disppeared (Luckily on ground) and I had to reload. Did anybody had similar experiences?I will be happy to see a PSS response on 1 and 2.ThanksBennyk
  3. I have been spending some time with the PSS B777 last day. I wish to share some observations and also a couple of questions and requests.1. SoundThis bird is silent as a grave while on the ground with engines off. Where are the panel switches clicks, the aircon airflow sound? In short, could you make the sound set livelier while not in flight?In the air - No wind sound, no spoilers sound. I know, this is subjective etc, etc but still missing. There is no way spoilers are not heard in the cockpit. It is also a problem - you just forget they are deployed and not so long that you are in trouble... 2. Auto throttleDoes not work so good. A/T lost control on speed (overspeeding) at least 3-4 times during a 7 hour flight and this is in x1 acceleration. More then that is hopeless.3. Questions:-Is there a TOGA switch? Where is it? Sorry, did not find any.- Is there going to be a pushback gauge?- Vertical speed wheel: It seems the help is reversed. It shows + when clicking for negative VS and vise vesa. Is this the way it was supposed to work?4. TCAS - in across the pond flight it seems stucked. Same info presented over hours with no change.Thats itthanksBenny K.
  4. Tried the other day to get to flight level 370 with a fully loaded A/C, just a bit below the MTOW. Just could not get there. Airspeed dropped to about 0.55 mach and speed could not recover to the 0.78m . I had to loose altitude and get back speed while decending to FL 330. Is this the way the real thing behaves? Should we step climb to burn fuel (which is not indicated on the FMC)? Will appreciate any response on that one.ThanksBK
  5. I can say I have the exact same problem with FS9 and I was hoping to find some answers in this forum. Seems it's a tough one is it not?
  6. The speed was set to the APP speed indicated in the approach page in the FMC but it was not VREF+5. It was just VREF. A/T was on and SPD selected.Question: What exactly do you refer to when saying "select APP REF"?Thanks RandyBK
  7. I am not aware that the 737NG has an alfa floor feature. In any event it is unlikly as I was at full flaps extended, wheels down and autothrottle engaged watching speed for me.Thanks anywayBK
  8. It happend to me twice today with the 737NG 2d panel; Engaged the VOR/LOC mode aligned with the runway, and when the GS became alive armed the APP. mode. All this with Auto throttle in SPEED mode. At first all was nice and the plane followed the GS nicely. Suddenly Auto Throttle jumped to N1 mode and the plane lost the GS tracking, adding power and actually climbing up and APP mode jumped back to LOC mod only.This is quite strange as I already did autoland perfectly and I am puzzled at this.Anybody has an idea?ThanksBK

  10. Hi,I am using FSUIPC 3.08 with FS_Meteo 3.6. 'enable turbulence in clouds' and 'wind' are both checked in FSUIPC. Still there are no turbulence effects as showed in FS2K2. Does anybody has an idea why and what am I possibly doing wrong?Thanks
