Take Off Power:

If you want a lower thrust setting on takeoff try derating the takeoff through the flex temperature... That seems to be the only reliable way to derate your takeoff for now from my observations. :)

Thanks. I've been getting tired of saying the same things to people! This was a very smart thing to do Libretto!

Sadly, some people won't do a search, or they won't look at the list of topics, to find this one, and so we will still end up pointing everyone to this topic, or telling them the answers. You just gotta live with it. ::) ;)

Can't pull up the 2D Panel

CS has elected not to install a complete 2D panel in the 777. There are, however, 2D "Popups" for many cockpit components.

VNAV won't work properly

Just after take off, and before engaging VNAV, re-insert the cruising altitude on FMC (VNAV, page 2 CRZ)
