	Maybe if you were more specific about the problem you're having and what the autopilot isn't doing for you (or is doing wrong), we could offer some suggestions.

	It simply isn't working. I'm a very experienced sim pilot with over 12 years flying behind me and I'm very used to flying add-ons with more complex FMC operations. I've worked through the manuals, in case I was missing something, but once programmed and up in the air, nothing happens when I engage the autopilot. Neither LNAV or VNAV have any effect on the flightpath and if I try to set a manual climb rate the window is just blank and again, no response. I've uninstalled and re-installed twice, with the same results. I don't believe I've missed anything but if anyone has had a similar problem and knows how to solve it, it would be appreciated.

	I'm having the same trouble. The autopilot is completely useless no matter what i do. I have many hours in the another company 767 and pmdg737/747 aircraft and have never ran into these problems.

	Hi, As far I know you should set your FSX to start flight in 2D instead of 3D. If you are using FS9 it will be better to start with the default flight and load after the 757. The idea there it's to permit the 757's gauges to load properly, especially when they are complex. Let us know if this work for you. Hope this will help you... Cheers Steveric

	When in flight (climbing, cruising, descending) my aircraft gets very "wabbly". It shakes only on its X axis...but consistantly. If i disengage the autopilot and re-engage it, the problem still persists. Thanks for your help. Andrew

	Are you flying from 2D panel or VC? Pull up the 2D autopilot panel if you are flying VC and see if you can disconnect the AP that way.

	Having the EXACT problem. I only use the 2D model for performance reasons. I try disconnecting it on the autopilot panel and nothing happens. I also hit Z and nothing happens.

	Same here....not a virtual cockpit person, system performance or not. I use the 2D view and the autopilot will not disengage. I have FS9-Block F Upgrade. thanks, Kin M. (Klax)

	And I'm using strictly the 2d panel. I need the heading to comply with the ATC in the after takeoff phase and when gettin my ILS Vectors on approach, I can handfly but this hinders my ability to set my instruments.

	Hello, I have the 757 complete package and cannot disengage the autopilot. This has become extremely annoying and in order for me to disengage, I need to reselect the aircraft (which resets everything). I tried reinstalling the software, but the problem still persists. Help is MUCH APPRECIATED, Dylan

	So let's say after touchdown you want to disengage it? Is the disengagebar not working? You can also try to push "Z" Kind Regards, Martijn
