Just completed my first flight in the 777-200, American Airlines, KSEA to KSFO.  Used ACE to set up the passengers and cargo, and followed the flight on a networked PC using Plan-G3.  Very impressed with this first flight!  Glad that the 777-200 flight from KSEA is now complete to a landing on RWY 28R at KSFO.  This is much better than ending up over KOAK at 30,000 ft.  Flew some of the route at X2 or X4, which saved time and did not cause any problems.  All fine until selecting APP for my final approach into KSFO, because I was too high on final.  The passengers would not have liked the landing, but next time will be better.  Thanks for a great update, Captain Sim.   Smiley Smiley

Using auto save, repeated the last part of my flight to KSFO.  This time I nailed it with an auto landing right on the centerline of RWY 28R.  Happy passengers!  The slow speed flight is much improved over the previous version!   Smiley Smiley

Some complementary information might be useful:

- Autopilot FLCH mode improved
  For small level changes (1000-4000 ft) it uses the 2-minute rule, that is AFDS attempt to reach the selected altitude in 2 minutes if possible (so called INTELLIGENT Flch). This gives a smoother ride for passengers (less ROC/ROD)

- ILS approach improved 

ILS/AUTOLAND has now also "Autoland3" (fail operational), "Autoland2 "(fail passive) and "No Autoland" (no autoflare and rollout) ) depending on hydraulic or electrical failures.
For example when Right Hydraulic Syst is off you get "Noland3" on Eicas and "Land2" on Pfd.  When left Hydr Syst off, you get "No Autoland".

- HYDRAULIC system bugs fixed
In case of failures you get now the right messages on Eicas. This is also true for the ELECTRICAL system

- Hydraulic VALVES on the upper overhead fixed
They stay always ON. Those buttons are reserved for maintenance people and are never touched by pilots.

- RUDDER animation fixed
On the 777 the maximum rudder deflection is 27° at V1-135kts,  9° at 250 Kts and only 6° at FL330-Mmo.
Also, to increase rudder power, the lower part of the rudder (tab) moves twice as far as the upper part (Max 54°)

Hope that helps  Smiley

Thank you for the update. From the casual player's angle, it is now perfect. Well done.

Hi guys!!!

I'd like some help. I really love the CS models, but, on this version 1.7 i have a lot of bugs. i will try to explain the most important to me:

1-TOGA. On my 777 on SECOND LEG when i press toga switch to takeoff the route on FMS just disappear! Why? on first flt of the day is every normal. Angry

2-Why there is no way to save as default the OFF mode for "pause on TOD" and weight to KGS as standard. Is terrible every day change the personal preferences. Angry

3-My FMS is NO ECONOMY, every descent uses engine thrust. Normally the descent is at idle thrust. doesn't metter the coast index.

4- should exist a way to re-fuel the acft via FMC Embarrassed

5-after take off from a wet runway the "WATER SPRAY EFFECT" stays under my 777, even i go to land on sahara desert, the water remains there! Cheesy


TKS!!!
