The problem with the turbulence, like you say, it seems exaggerated. I checkmarked (turned ON) the "Disable turbulence and thermal effects on aircraft", found in Settings > Display > Weather. I created a PDF of the Doppler Tutorial (printed to a PDF file) that used to be in the Customer Support KB#5968, before they added the info that is in the 707 Manual Part II. You can download it from here: 707 Captain Doppler System Quick Start Tutorial if you want. ;) I found it to be of very helpful and I am so glad I added it into a PDF while it was still there! ;D

Thanks Pinatubo, it helped a lot!

I shall study it then, tutorials are much better than manuals.
By the way, do you navigate often with Doppler? or Ins? which do you prefer? Was the Doppler standard in 707s ? Maybe Capt Lou can answer this one.

I know the INS is not, as INS was standard in the 747-200

I believe in the 707 years pilots would do their navigation the traditional way, by using just VOR and NDB crossing marks, plus the Navigator Officer sitting behind would do more precise TIME control ETA of fixes and positions, course corrections, wind currents to chose level, weather, etc.., specially when crossing the Ocean, though I don't know which gear he used. I know Navigators before the 707 just used Star fixing plotting for ocean crossing, but by the 70s it was newer technology, maybe the Doppler.
