I remember using FS Navigator(?) years ago and was impressed with the SID/STAR DB. I'll check out FS Navigator. Maybe I'll just rely on entering in my own STARS from approach charts into the FMC for now... Yep, if you are pretty good in FS, then you'll do pretty good in the real thing. Knowing and using the FMC makes a difference. It was pretty awesome. Sounds like the PMDG 777 is due soon. I'll try that out when it comes out, just for the FMC experience if anything.

I'll have to check out FS Commander, thanks for the tip. I'm guessing it won't allow updates to the STAR DB in the JB 777 FMC. Is this how it works; load a flight plan from FS Commander into FSX, use that flight plan in the JB Panel 777 FMC? Is there an easy way to load in a STAR, use on the JB 777 FMC while on approach after finding out what runway you are assigned? I bought it at an auction; Boeing had donated an hour in one of their full simulators, a few weeks ago I scheduled it in their 777 simulator. The instructor was awesome, we got in early and ended late; ended up with 3 hours in the simulator. Two ILS laps out/in of Seattle, two full IFR/ILS approaches into Seattle, one ILS lap out/in of Heathrow, one VFR lap out/in of Reno/Tahoe, all done without the autopilot but using the FMC/FD. Pretty amazing and all my landings were good. of

That fixed it, thank you. I should have checked the .cfg settings per the panel readme.txt. Thanks for the help. The panel is pretty amazing. I had a chance to fly in a 777 Sim at the Boeing Training center and was impressed at how spot on the 777 JB Panel is to the Boeing simulator in function. Thanks again! Tod Curious on the wing tanks filling first comment: Why are the wing tanks filled first, but the center tank is drawn from first? Wouldn't you want to fill the tank that is drawn first? Thanks! Tod

I'm trying to learn the 777 JB Panel and I seem to have some hydraulic faults that I can't figure out. The attached screenshot shows most everything, but I can't figure out why the center tank is not getting any pressure. Any suggestions? Thank you! Tod
