Ok, that's why I'm not seeing it.There was a bug with the 2D as well on the switch I described causing the N1 "race", but that was repaired.
-
They all work fine for me. In fact, the switch that was causing it (upper right of that 4 light switch quadrant) is no longer functional for me.Using Windows XP SP3, FSX SP2 Acceleration Pack.Tested in -31/-41/-51 models. All good.
-
What model? I tried it on the -51 and didn't notice this...maybe they forgot a few?
-
All of the aircraft.cfg's were overwritten. That's why it appears that you "lost" your repaints.Apparently, from an e-mail we got back, they already know about the NAV1 frequency not tuning from the 2D panel.
-
Their service/support e-mail was quick to reply and very receptive from the reply that I got.We'll see how they do here with SP1. :)

Regarding the autothrottle...
-
What do you mean by this?The DC-9 autothrottle was a system used for approach only and there wasn't even a way to set the speeds on it. Most pilots never used it because it was considered unreliable and rarely did what it was supposed to.
-
Exactly. I think the biggest issue is the autopilot functions that don't work correctly, but it's still very flyable.
-
I think I saw someone else tell me that one too about the "109" issue.More I found...1. Ducts pressurize without turning on APU Air.2. APU Air pressurizing only the right duct.3. Powerback impossible (reversers engage, but don't "power up").4. EPR incorrect (2.05 is the best I could get).5. In-air turns, rudder appears to "flutter".
-
No, it's not. That was on my gripe list. :)Also, I suspect they "tuned" it for landing flaps 50 which is not something you do unless in an emergency.
-
What were your hydraulic pumps set on?
-
Okay, -50 started. Just took a reload of the aircraft...must not have loaded completely.But...The IAS/Mach hold features of the autopilot don't work. I started playing with the VS selector and it moved the plane, so apparently, they're not working correctly. Can anyone confirm this?Also, I took her up to FL250 and started doing some stall tests. With 50% load in a DC-9-51, it stalled at 165 clean, 120 with 40+gear (normal landing config) and 145 with 5+gear. Those numbers are close, but then on approach just before that, I stalled with 5 deg+gear at 165ish. So, something isn't quite right.Also pay attention to the EPR vs. the N1. Does anyone else notice that the EPR is reading low?
-
Confirmed "Sticky" starter in DC-9-51 for sure.Right now, I can't get the left started no matter what position I have the X-Feed valves in. With APU Bleed on, I only show air in the right.
