I have been doing some testing of the 707 Captain in Windows 8. These are my findings so far.

Problem #1 - After starting the 707, is just starts rolling forward. The Parking Brake is ON and the throttle levers are at IDLE (showing such in the VC), yet it starts to roll and I can't stop it. Using the joystick button #1 (MS SideWinder Force Feedback 2), or the keyboard period (.) doesn't stop it! Using full reverse will stop it, but then it will start going in reverse (backwards) if I use the reversers. Weird!

Problem #2 - I can't turn the 707! Using the joystick swivel grip, or the keyboard (Num 0 and Num Enter). I have also tried using differential braking to turn it keyboard (Num * and Num -), but to no avail to no avail.

These problems do not always happen, but they do happen to me.

The Doppler Navigation works fine. CIVA INS is yet to be determined. On the first try, the 707 headed of in a direction that told me it was not controlled by the INS or VOR navigation modes (yes the Doppler/INS Navigation switch was set to INS).

If anyone else is having better luck than me, please say so!
