I recently purchased the B777 as I am training on the actual airplane. Here are a few questions I would like to ask.
1. What is the best view mode for flying the airplane whereby you have access to the MCP, and to be able to see the PFD, ND well enough for some hand flying (along with auto flight), along with the Upper Center Display and easy access to the CDU.
2. The Overhead is very dark in the day time. I have turned on the storm lite, and Master Brightness etc all the way up.
3. I can't seem to start the engines. Have tried both auto start and manual. I get rotation, but no light off. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Any other types on flying this airplane would be helpful as I intend to use it as a training device for my Type Rating which I'll be getting in about a month.
Thank you.
David
