Go right ahead, it won't affect FS2Crew.

They're some great tutorials an user made "cheat sheets" that can help, and you can ask away here if you need more help. The user made tutorials are in a sticky at the top of the forum, they're pretty good

By switching the mode in the control panel to APU/EXT or which one you like and asking for it. Try that and see how it goes.

Nope, you'd need to verify everything is how it's supposed to be just to make sure.

Hi Rick, I don't think that could be the cause of the problem, there is a "fail pass" option as well, could it be joystick noise that caused it to "kick" off the autopilot ?

Eric, If you want to use the GPU or External Air simply use select that option in the config panel. The ground crew perform the correct procedure as it is right now. We're not modeling any airline's specific procedures, and this it the procedure I selected to be modeled for many reasons (technical, logical and from experience) some of which i mentioned above.

Correct, it's not the only way, but what I'm saying is it's a wasted APU cycle, the APU isn't put on the buss until gate arrival and the parking brake is put on normally. What's the point of starting the APU if you're going to use the GPU/AIR and it's not going to be providing elec or pneumatic power ? It'll be a wasted start cycle and wasted fuel. What happens if the APU is not serviceable ?,..It would have to be connected BEFORE engine shutdown or the aircraft will loose power. This is the procedure I've used at every airline I've ever been with. You don't start the APU for no reason,..airlines are very,..well,..extremely picky about this kind of stuff. What airline are you referring to BTW ?

The A/T disconnect switch is on the throttle.

Hi Eric, If you follow the procedures in the manual you'll have no problems at all. The procedure to shut down engine 2, then connect External power and/or Air is the correct one,some reasons for this are the receptacle in on the right side of the aircraft and to ensure the safety of the crew you shut the #2 down first and the systems will be powered from the #1 engine (AC Power) until the GPU is connected. I can't figure out why the particular airline you speak of would waste an APU start cycle in that situation,..doesn't make sense to start it for that short period of time, at any rate the current way it's modeled is correct.

Hi, That isn't 737NG procedure, For a non precision approach in the NG the PF turns the auto-throttle off, to silence it just push the autothrottle disengage switch again.

Hi, Please have a look at the manuals for FS2Crew, you have to set the config panel to the power source you'll be using before landing, and follow the FS2Crew specific flows. For #1, this procedure does not work if the APU is not serviceable For #2, There's not GPU cart only mode, it's APU/EXT, in wich case the GPU provides electrical power and the APU air conditioning Again, please follow the FS2Crew procedures. If unclear have a look at the tutorials. Be sure to set the correct mode you wish to use BEFORE landing, and you should have no problems.

Absolutely, just cycle to the correct mode, run the checklist and off you go.

The F/O doesn't silence these in the RW, just push the disengage button again and it'll silence it.

This is an unrealistic request in my opinion, we operate with standardized procedures and they should be in the same position. In the event of equipment faults there's a lot more going on than a switch being in a different position, it involves the QRH, MEL and a whole other set of checklists assuming the aircraft is still serviceable. I made sure that if you encounter any failures in the ngx you'd be able to handle it because there's a voice command for almost every switch so no worries about that. At any rate there's a special version of fs2crew for failures so stay tuned :Party: You can still get your QRH out in this version and give the voice commands an failures a go.

Hi Eric,You (as captain) should check TR’s 1, 2 and 3 show positive amperage and Verify AC and DC voltage, frequency and load are within limits.

They're in, you should hear them.

Do you have windows 7 ultimate ?

Hi Kevin,Firstly let me apologize for my post seeming negatively charged. I wasn't trying to attack you, i did however feel insulted. I accept your apology an hope you accept mine and know they're no hard feelings on my part. It's a forum, and it's here for people to ask questions and learn.We've discussed this before and it's something on the cards for SP2 if it can be done (I think it can be though). One of our beta testers had brought this up but it was too late to add it to SP1. It'll be along the lines of right clicking the "RUN PF" button to start a the turnaround preflight.

Bryan is right.

Ok Great, Just making sure you were in the right mode :)

OK, Hope it works, Did you speak "Before Start Procedure" ?

Send a request to Bryan, He'll check your order details and then send you the fix.

Please ensure that the Config panel in fs2crew is set correctly, set it to the Audio device you intend to use.Assuming that you are using windows 7 go to control panel>>hardware and sound>>sound and ensure your devices are setup correctly. Also go to the communications tab and select"do nothing" in the options when windows detects communications activity.Are you using a headset ?

The correct commands are "Select Lnav" "Select Vnav" "Select Command A"
