Hi everyone !If you like older planes switch to www.simviation.com/hjgAll the planes there are modeled perfectly (visually and systems) :( and FREE !This is nothing for the LNAV/VNAV generation only for real men :biggrin:Greetings ThomasLOWW

Hi Bob ! First ... thank you very much for your hard work and the pleasure you give us with V1.3.One thing i found is in the SP177 programing. When selecting V/S mode the value in the V/S window should be the same as the VSI. The same for FLCH, when selecting FLCH the value should be the same as the actual ASI/MACH. For me FLCH only works with AP engaged, in real it can be used with FD only for hand-flying. (like all FD/AP modes)Best regards ThomasMovement ControlTWR LOWW

>Ermmm...Im sorry>for this silly question but....why does Citation X have no>autothrottle in real life? How does the CX tell the autopilot>to hold a certain speed, Im curious to know thank you :)Hi Nevin !The Citation X AP holds IAS by adjusting pitch it is very easy andconvinient. Climb - lets say climb at 250 kts... set climb thrust - at 250 kts press IAS and the plane climbs at 250 kts all the way up. By adjusting the V/S wheel you can adjust airspeed as well (wheel down speed up - wheel up speed down) Descend - lets say at 280 kts. throttle idle speed 280 kts press IAS and so on...you can find a very good freeware autopilot in the ATR42 package by Francisco Sanchez Castaner here in the avsim lib, that works almost the same as the Citation X AP. There is no autothrottle (in real) in most of the "small" jets CRJ,ERJ, Lear, Citation ....and absolutly NO autothrottle in any turboprop aircraft ! Hope this helps ...Tom (LOWW)
