Title: DONE - Hold and DME
Post by Patrick Chaieb on Apr 17^th, 2021 at 12:49pm

Hi

I had a bit time to fly this bird a litte longer and want to share, what I remarked beside other things, already mentioned in this forum:

- The Aircraft does not fly Holdings
- If I select a set a VOR Freq. manualy to VOR2, the DME shows a very big distance, even I'm close. Tested it on several VORs.

Kind Regards
Patrick

This bug is easy to verify by using the MANUAL settings for both NAV freqs, and entering the same VOR/DME frequency in them both.
For example, I enter 112.10 (SY), and the left NAV displays the distance as 56.9, but the right displays the distance as 822.6.

4 month later and still no answer on that. I'm a bit dissapointed with the 737 support. I also own the 757 and 767 but IMHO the 737 has a lot more bugs or missing futures than your other planes. Anwers to topics in the forum are often without a replay.
I asked also several time if we could get the TERR on the ND as it's done on your 757 and 767 but this too did never get a response :-[
Would be happy to here about these questions.
Regards
Patrick

Same for me having purchased this a/c recently. Flew into EGKK yesterday on line and instructed to hold at Timba. When selecting hold in FMC the tear drop pattern shows up but the a/c does not follow it. I had simply to use heading select to maintain the holding pattern. Not good really.

best,

Keith
