need some tips

[the_nick]

going to try it with more trim now

[aristoteles]

[the_nick]

now I did the trim hard and thenose went of the ground at 110kts but the tail dragged over the ground. this is the pic I was looking for
now I know where I can watch the trim

[aristoteles]

Usually you get the trim settings from the FMC, give it a try, you will be able to use it in the 737,747,757,767,777, so it´s worth reading the
manual!

I pushed 1 but then I look to the side. when I take virtual cockpit to look at the throtlle I don't see the trim

[aristoteles]

Check the pedestal View, it SHOULD be there.

[the_nick]

found it , the arm bar was in the way

[aristoteles]

The funny thing is that I don´t even fly the 777.

Well, 110 knots is too slow. You need about 140 knots. Too slow, and the aircraft has to develop too much angle of attack to take off, hence the
taildragging. So now it sounds like you have too much up trim.

I placed the trim at 7.5 still in the green

I'd keep experimenting some with the trim; you can never have "too much" information when it comes to something like this.
