Title: Arming Spoilers & Altitide setting.
Post by FrankD1 on Oct 3^rd, 2010 at 1:35pm

Hello, can you arm the spoilers from the VC or you need to set this up with button assignement?

Can you preset a certain altitude let's say 20,000 feet so in autopilot it reaches this height by setting the vertical speed only?

Thanking in advance.

Frank D.

Hi Frank.

You can't arm the spoilers in the 707. You could in v1.0 which was incorrect (apparently) and so has been corrected.

Unfortunately, no you can't preselect the altitude. You need to click on the Altitude Hold switch upon reaching your desired altitude.

Welcome in the world of classic Airliners where even the ALT reminder was optional.
As long as you don't ask where to enter your SID, you're welcome ;D
