Autopilot mode LNAV + G/P on STAR ??

Lol he put FL22K so you can lose one zero.

Still doesn't exist.

What was down for your alternate? Might find that caused you to land with more than you are used to..

I know in the NGXu it was normally...

[Gazzareth]

If the APU is running then the APU light being blue means the generators are off, if the APU light is off then you are using the APU.

Obviously...

Live weather has been fine for me, matches up with NOAA in Europe at least - been trying a lot of airports to find IFR conditions....

Where is the failure there? No warnings, switches look ok and cabin is pressurised unless I'm reading it wrong.......

Thanks for the update, loving the 737 so far !!

You've got the Packs on.

Both Engine Bleeds ON?
APU Bleed OFF?
Isolation Valve to Auto?

Worth attaching a pic of...

[Gazzareth]

Yes it is.

Needs both NAV radios tuned to the ILS & both courses set. I've never done it without ILS approach selected in the FMS, although...

I export my flightplan for the PMDG from SimBrief, but use LNM to create the flightplan for MSFS (although I only really load it into MSFS to get placed...

[Gazzareth]

You can even just enter the distance ie /40 or /150 and it will plot where those points intersect your flightplan. Don't need to enter the radial unless...

[Gazzareth]

No issues since latest update whatsoever.

Not like other sims don't break things with updates tbh .. .. and at least with MSFS you are getting...

[Gazzareth]

According to the FCOM that is to be entered if fueling is NOT complete - so the AC wouldn't know how much fuel is on board. That would probably explain...

[Gazzareth]

Compared to this the FSX/P3D versions felt like they were on rails. Definitely more challenging on MSFS tbh...

[Gazzareth]

I figured it was a MSFS rather than a PMDG thing. Previously I mostly flew the CJ4, a lot harder to randomly hit a switch in that. Does explain a lot...

[Gazzareth]

Thanks for the info, I definitely hadn't consciously pressed the APP button, but since I've been using the 737 I have noticed switches being pressed when...

Flying into EGNX this morning I noticed that the AP mode had changed to LNAV (FAC Armed) and G/P whilst flying the HEME1E Star to ILS27/PIGOT.

You could always be a big lazy cheat and use DH for anything that's really high...

[Gazzareth]

I used to but it's kinda finicky to do it that way, easier to load straight into AS then you know it's done....

G...

[Gazzareth]

I think AS can read the FP from p3d, although think you need to load the FP after starting the flight. I always loaded the plan directly into AS though......

[Gazzareth]

Once the downloader is set up it will even transfer the plan and weather file as soon as they are created, no effort needed at all.

The path...
