PMDG 738
EHM-0654 Murray:
Cheers Bruce. I'd noticed this myself. I figure there must be a way to remove a waypoint without the DISCO being added, but I'll check this for myself when my FMC book arrives...

You can download documentation on the FMC and flight tutorials from the PMDG site, under downloads then documentation, this is where I learnt how to use the FMC, they are very good.
EHM-0654 Murray:
As did I Bruce, but as part of the library I want to build up to go along with my cockpit project (very long term...) I have bought Bill Bulfer's FMC User Guide (as used by many real pilots to learn how to work the 737NG FMC) which with any luck will arrive before my FDS Elite CDU (USB 737 FMC hardware, works beautifully with Project Magenta...)
I'll also be buying Bill's 737NG Cockpit Guide at some point in the future.
EHM-0948 Bruno:
I am having another problem now :) .. Not as bad as the last one ;) ...
When i am on CRZ mode, and when I am already near the TOD (Top of Descent) to start the DES mode, the FMC says "PTH DESCENT NOV AVAILABLE" ... something like that.
What does it mean ?
Thank you in advance.
EHM-0654 Murray:
Bruno,
Can't be 100% sure on this (as I can't find my paper copies of the PMDG documentation ATM) but I think this means you hadn't reset the altitude hold for descent.
Prior to TOD, you need to dial in the final altitude you want to hit during descent. If you have a STAR altitude hold, that's what you need to dial in.
Can I recommend Fred Clausen's PMDG Flight Tutorial (search for "pmdg_flight_tutorial_v2.zip" on AvSim), as it's the best of the PMDG flight tutorials I have read so far. He deals with all the procedural stuff really well.
