Hi Michael. What program do you edit the CFG files with? It sounds like they are not being saved in the correct basic text format. As far as I know, CS 727 uses FSUIPC. It is only the 707 and B-52 that don't use it. Mark

I can't get at FSX or the cfg file right now because I am doing a 12 hour flight in the MD-11 and I run in the full screen mode. I am certain I am using Notepad for cfg changes. I just ran across a post in which thrust_scalar = 1 was changed to a value of .91 to reduce thrust. Maybe I need to change that to 1.05 and see what happens.

I am still trying to find  the thread on changing thrust in the 752.  I am sure that one had 3 to 5 changes in the cfg file to increase the thrust. The guy said it worked fine but he didn't know how to account for the additional fuel consumption. I don't care about that. I would just like to increase the thrust. Maybe it was in a 762 or 763. I'll try the 767 forum next.

I think if I make anymore posts I will start a topic in the 757 forum. The 727 forum "Question about altitude" is not really an appropriate place for this topic.
