You didn't read my full post, i said" if you use reverse thrust coupled with it" i too can use rto all the time, if i don't use reverse thrust with it, but when it is used like this, next time you will try to use rto, it will disengage.

From my experience, you can use rto only once per flight, if you used reverse thrust coupled with it, after that rto will disengage after trying to use it, tried with and without joystick, override set to never, calibrated through fsx, max sens, 1 null zone.

In the 737 for example the reversers can be opened at RA<10 ft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41C4qMDzT_0

Sadly, it didnt work, have you tried to do this as i described ? one rto with reverse, and after that another rto, at that moment autobrake disarms.

After disabling any FSUIPC settings and unpluging controlers i confirm, that using reverse during one rto will prevent any rto engagement after that, autobrake will simply disarm.

Also, i would like to add an observation concerning gpws test sounds, they do not correspond to the ones user chooses in the fmc, for example if you have chosen "decision height" call-out you will hear "minimums" when testing gpws, is that normal?

Thanks for the clarification, completely forgot about the baro indication logic

Well, seeing, that it is present on the video, i'd wager that someone thought of it as important to the simulated experience, so it was implemented. ^^

Hello, i have recently stumbled upon an interesting video: Driven by curiosity i tried to emulate these "manuvers" and compare the indications. In ngx, the speedtape will not dissapear, when crossing 450 knots indicated, also, the vertical speed indicator will not stop at 9999 ft. The Baro will not change color. Which behaviors are right then?

Hello, i was reading the manual, and it is stated there that box prompts are a required data to be inputed and dash prompts are optional. I went to the RTE page, where origin airport is in dash prompts and destination is in box prompts, tried to set only destination airport, but one can't do it, you must set the origin first. It is quite logical, that the fmc needs both points for its route managment, but why then use different prompts ?

It is mentioned the r/t can be set at 10< RA as i stated at the begining of the topic, but it isn't the primary thing discussed there, i tested the thing and the r/t activates only after gear being firmly on the ground, can it be a limitation of FSX, even if FS9 allows it ? B)

Why did they want to do that ? ^_^ : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41C4qMDzT_0

Hello, i have a question, would it be possible to enable the NGX to open reverse thrust at 10< RA, like the PT in fs9 here :

Happens to me too, i traced it to that when you finish climb, engines go into cruise mode, and then you try to select a STAR for the departure airport, it can hang there, mind you it happens only for some airports, for example EPWA, EDDF...., and some STARS, but i could repeat it every time for these. latest AIRAC, tried to reinstall, fly default liveries, nothing, but i have a work around for this, in the ROUTE page set the airport you want to land on as an arrival airport and on SID/STAR page select a star from the arrival airport option, this problem happened when i was circling around the departure airport, setting EPWA/EPWA in the ROUTE page, and then selecting a star from the departure airport option, on some airacs it works, on some it don't, i use the latest now.

Hello, i have a question, in the hgs manual provided here : http://jlaroche.com/cqfa/280-BVN/Documents_BVN/B737_9701-1071%20Rev%20C.pdf it says, that to set the HGS in PRI mode one needs to set it on the HGS control panel, or push the TO/GA button which will set it for you regardless of the mode displayed on the control panel, the thing is, i can't set it with the TO/GA button, i did some go-arounds in AIII mode, and the pushed the TO/GA button, but it didn't change. Is there something i need to do to obtain this behaviour ?

Hello, i just tried a short circling around EDDF Frankfurt/Main, setting ANEK6L Sid for a runway 18, after levelling off at the FL100 i chose a STAR for ILS rw 25C, and then the pc froze. After some tests, i came to the conclusion, that this crash occurs only, when in cruise setting, tried it in climb for example and nothing bad happened, using Airac 1108, sp1c.

Hello, i fly with 767 for fs9 and have made some observations of this plane, and it would be a great addition if: 1.All of the lights could work separately, becouse if i want for example to set wing lights on, i need to set position lights on also, or they will not start, in FSX i has been woked out i believe. 2.Drag/ thrust required messages added, like in fsx version. 3.Terrain override switch added. 4.Ability to set mods for analog artificial horizon along with the caging device for it. 5.Im not sure if this is a problem but vnav behavior is uncertain in some cases like: -Shouldn't VNAV shut down at the end of route, maybe go into altitude and speed hold ? -VNAV descent, if i will set a STAR , be at a certain distance from it, and set VNAV on, the aircraft will start descending, even if im not directly on track, i could descent into the ground this way, and not being in a close proximity to the STAR, it will follow VNAV descent profile even if not close to the waypoints, shouldn't the aircraft wait with descent until i will fly through STAR waypoints ? Maybe it could be added in the next incarnation of the 767, if such would be created after 757 comes along :>

About the panel freeze i mentioned eariler, still no change after trying multiple configurations, the airplane freezes if i won't set engine generators on before shutting apu down, it can have something to do with IRS being aligned and losing its power source maybe, can it still run on battery only ?, if so there shouldn't be a problem. For now i will just do things per manual, waiting for SP1.

There is no denying it, but what could couse this effect ?, there shouldn't be a problem, whatever cost index would i select

I will , my flights are mostly short houls, so i wanted to fly them a little faster .

Well i was arming both LNAV and VNAV on the ground and switching the autopilot at 800ft, this ocurrence with speed oscilation happened with cost index around 200, and i was getting fmc messages like "unable 200kts on okc" which was a part of a SID.

Another thing worth mentioning, i can repeat this anytime, the panel freeze occurs if i want to turn off the apu without switching to engine generators, discovered this becouse like i said earlier im used to 767 where they switch on automatically after an engine start . No ground connections.

After trying to hotstart the engine with the EEC failure set, there is no problem, the EEC just switches to alternate mode and works somehow . Maybe the failure doesn't affect the EEC fuel mixture logic but only rated thrust ?

I didn't look closely to the failures page on the fmc but if there is an EEC failure available, then we can try to start the engine with it checked, and see what happens .

Upper overhead panel, two guarded switches labeled as EEC, maybe im wrong and they don't switch off all the functions, or they are for something else ? Are they only providing rated thrust ?
