Hello, My name is Patrick Mollette and I just wanted to mention a couple things I really hope to see in the near future to add noticeable realism to the 777. First off, The Electronic Checklist. I have been watching videos (and i guess you could say hanging out in the Delta Air Lines 777 simulator), and the electronic checklist is almost completely different than what is in the PMDG 777. Their are a lot more added items and even more checklist (for normal operations) then what is currently included. Now I realize that this is quite a chore to redesign and add Checklist for each airline, but could you guys not do it for at least a few of the big 777 airlines. I.E. Delta, emirates, British Airways, United, and American? Just a thought, because this would add a huge amount of realism to the 777, and makes it better than just clicking checklist and it already being done. One more item is the Flap setting response time (if i worded that correctly). When you select a flap setting in the 777 the response from the time you set it to a change on the Display is quicker in real life than in the PMDG 777. I have noticed this first-hand. The time is not far off, but it is still noticeable. That is one thing that has sort of bugged me, and even a real 777 Flight instructor agrees. I am really not trying to be one of those people who come in here just to rant about something I do not know anything about. I have made 100% sure that I at least double checked what I was about to say vs. what I noticed in Real-life. So what i am asking is... Will any of these things I mentioned be brought up or thought about for future projects/Service packs with the 777? Regards, Patrick Mollette

This is not on the topic above necessarily, but when the flaps are extended, the time it takes for the flap setting image to pop up on the EICAS is a little slow. It is off by a small fraction but I did notice in videos that it is just a little bit slower than it appears in a RW 77L sim or aircraft.
