Actually I don't remember at all what I wanted to say , but definitely NOTHING
about speed bugs ... NEVER

Ah OKOK... Pfew...
But anywayy, I will soon come to fly with the ATR and I bet in matter of faults,it will need several threads to list them all this evening I
succeeded at least to get my plane ready for taxi with no alarms blinking and ringing all around

Now I go to eat a bit and go on entering Nav plan in MCDU

How about you on CS 707 ?

Hey Ivo,

Unless otherwise specified, the flights are on Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat and Sun.

And whether it's a prop or jet flight all depends cunning concoction of the length of the leg, the day of the week and Drew's latest Touchdown
Speeds... <<= I know: you didn't request this last piece of info, but somehow I felt you were dying to ask!

[ivo]

T'is a long story, indeed.

Put it this way: Married with Children, management job, totally knackered by the time I come home and weekends are devoted to the family I ignore
during the week.

I'll make it some time, soon; but, in the mean time, I get my kicks (although pretty virtual, kind of like eating a cake while it's still wrapped up)
by dabbling with the FSPWT web site.

I don't know either if I will be back early enough tomorrow evening for flight. So don't wait.

If not I will carry on learning the flight1 ATR. I am OK now with starting, some basics on FMC but still unable to understand how navs and AP are
supposed to work...
I have some 4 hours quiet in the train tomorrow to read the heavy documentation, it should help.

Pierre, we can fly online tomorrow (it you you make it in time) and during the flight we can tell how to fly the atr. There are several people who fly
it now and it's a nice way to learn online i believe. (And you can experience the lovely tcas warnings yourself then also )

[runibl]

Yep. The best way to learn, is to learn while flying online.

I just got home, 3:30am local time... may be a little late for the flight
