  1. RSR and the rest of the team, I was scheduled on a flight this night from the Caribbean to Europe, and as soon as we arrived at the airport, the crew of the arriving aircraft reported engine problems. This is one classic example of thinking you're going somewhere, and at the last moment someone or something disrupts it all. I was looking forward to being home this weekend to enjoy the release of the 777, but the captain and I were asked to stay with the aircraft until the engine has been replaced. Will take a few days, but then you can be sure you have something reliable to work on Looking forward to next week
  2. Actually, it's [waypointname][trk]/[dst] eg SPL020/40 or REMES360/15 ;) I haven't tried the ones based on NAV DATA waypoints or VOR's (only TEMP waypoints (WPT01 etc) )
  3. At that point, both FD's were engaged, and I was only able to engage two APs after G/S capture. For the N1 button: I never use it. During T/O roll the FMA changes to "ARM", and at acceleration altitude (or thrust reduction altitude, have to check again) it automatically changes to "N1". Afaik N1 is not to be used as a replacement for the TO/GA mode.
  4. I downloaded and installed the NGX in 24 hours (welcome to Indonesia/the jungle), but to my surprise there is no display of the exterior model when looking at the airplane from outside. I'll try to reinstall FSX these days, will let you know if the problem persists. In my first two flights, at cruise I tried to change some options in the PMDG Setup in the CDU. At that point FSX did not only crash, but my whole computer shut down (not even the correct shutdown procedure, but the power just went off). Anyone else having this problem? My third flight was more successful, but I noticed some behaviour which I've not seen in the real NG: - With the A/T engaged before takeoff, pushing TO/GA will switch on the FD's during takeoff roll, even if they are not switched on. In the NGX I cannot use TO/GA if I did not switch on both FD's - When using APP mode (after VOR/LOC capture, before G/S interception), selecting the second A/P should switch this on (not yet engaged) and not transfer A/Ps like in the NGX - On the descent I noticed that if the speed drops too low, the FMA (for A/T) changes to "FMC SPD", which is correct. However, after gaining the correct speed, the thrust was set to idle again, and I expected the FMA to change back to "ARM". This did not happen. - When creating a waypoint on the LEGS page in the CDU based on coordinates, the FMC correctly creates a waypoint (WPT01 in this example). However, I am not able to use this waypoint to create another (eg WPT01360/40). This example returns "not in database". Could you tell me if this is the programmed behaviour or if this might be bugs? Thanks
  5. Doesn't sound too strange actually. What's the climb speed (using ECON/MAX RATE/MAX ANGLE?) and the cost index? If your GW is 63.8 with 29% of fuel, you must have some passengers/cargo as well right?
  6. Met Paul, Sam, Thomas en Hugo (@ Sky Garden & Ocean Beach Club w/ 6 others) http://4sq.com/qCN2aH

  7. Als laatste voor deze maand even een rondje Batam vliegen. Een fles Vodka en een fles Jägermeißter rijker :)

  8. Zo heb ik me sinds januari niet meer gevoeld. Iets met #buikpijn #slechtvoedsel #krank

  9. Aanvulling op vorige tweet: er staat ook nog een Ilyushin naast van de Russische Presidentiële vloot. #huh #koudeoorlog

  10. Wat een grote hoeveelheid Nederlanders weer aan het ontbijt hier #GrandKuta #Bali

  11. Kookpunt bereikt... Begin de instelling en het karakter van een gedeelte van dit volk goed zat te worden #lui #egoïstisch #gazomaardoor

  12. Dat 2-step verification van @google werkt lekker! Veiligheid ten top op deze manier, slim bedacht.

  13. Lunchen. Straks weer terug naar Jakarta :( (@ Hard Rock Cafe Singapore w/ 2 others) http://4sq.com/qWBnil

  14. Wat een ongeorganiseerde chaos daar bij het House of Commons. Net een crèche. Zelfs de voorzitter heeft geen overmacht.

  15. Op naar Singapore! (@ Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK)) http://4sq.com/mVB1eU
