True!

I don't think it's common practice to carry the FCOM open at your lap at every flight.

If that's his choice, then I respect it. But, damn...

does still exist somewhere?

anyone has these still?

Not too long ago, I used to have these two great checklists for the NGX and the 777, but I ended up losing the files. I still have the bookmarks, but the files are no longer available. Does anyone know anything about these? http://www.limegallery.co.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/777-Long-Turn-Flows.pdf http://www.limegallery.co.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Boeing-737-NG-Short-Turn-State.pdf These were downright the best checklists ever made for these planes!

The alternator is the STBY ALT switch.I actually learned quite a lot from this video: *Note: STBY ALT function doesn't seem to work in this version.

You can do that by right-clicking the FPL button once you have the FP loaded and active on the RXP GNS530. It generates a *.PLN file under My Documents/Flight Simulator X files.

Indeed. I should've thought of that earlier. Doing my first flight right now from KORS to KTIW and I've gotta say... she is a beaut... and flies just as good as she looks.

Oh, then everything's working as it should then. Thanks for the replies!

I must be doing something wrong then! I get the FP working perfectly on the 530, but no sign of it in the mfd =/

So if I understood correctly, all you do is program the fp in the RXP GNS530 and it comes up on the MFD automatically for you? I've tried that, but it doesn't seem to work.

How can I get the RXP530 flight plan to show up on the MFD?

are you certain the C-152 you use in your training uses KIAS and not MPH? It's very common to see these older planes with gauges showing airspeed in MPH.

20 bucks says this will be a catalyst to change the switch shape/location.

Not I.

It is indeed a really fussy airplane!

Check out the "Incoming Projects" section in the Carenado website. ;)

The old VARIG doesn't exist anymore. It has been closed since '06. The "new" Varig is completely owned by Gol, which operates a few 738s and two 767s in a modernized Varig livery. Truly a shame, Varig was one of Brazil's greatest prides. It paid the heavy price of complacency during it's final years, however. PS. Would love to see a Gol 738 without winglets!

Well, I do 99.9% of my flying from the cockpit, and although McPhat makes a bloody wonderful job with their repaints (works of art, really), they won't be seeing a penny from me, as there is no realistic need to buy repaints when I can find perfectly made liveries that suit my needs for free elsewhere. There's my twopence.

this thread makes me lol.

That's the way FS replay acts, unfortunately. Oh well.

Wow is all I can say.

This deserves a pin!
