You got me thinking about it, so I got in a did a flight. The CWS is better than I remember it being. So it isn't as bad as I stated in my previous post.

I am doing a flight with a flight plan loaded, but I am controlling it using only CWS, for both pitch and bank, until I turn on ALT HOLD on at FL360. Then I will continue to use CWS for bank only. So far (just coming up to FL340) it's going really well.

EDIT #1: I get what you mean by the CWS being "sticky". I find it especially "sticky" when wanting to make slight banking movements. You pull the joystick left or right and the CWS suddenly "lets go" and the bank angle then jerks to left or right! So that certainly does need fixing. ;)

EDIT #2: I finished the flight in the 737 and it went really well. As I said, I used ALT HOLD at FL360, but followed the route tracks using CWS banking to change the course. While the "sticky" CWS made banking initially difficult, once it became "unstuck" it worked fine.

I am currently doing a return flight in the CS L-1011. This time though, I am using the A/T and ALT HOLD (at FL350). The difference between the CWS in the 737 and the L-1011 is quite a noticeable. In an earlier post in this Topic, I stated that if the CWS of the 737 could be brought to the level that the CWS is in the L-1011, then it would be a great improvement to the CWs control in the 737, and I'll stand by that comment. ;)
