	Hello, I have noticed that the throttle quadrants on your 757 and 767 aircraft look like the throttle quadrants on a 777. http://captainsim.com/cgi-bin/imgview.pl?i=/products/b767/img/screenshots/vc/v76... I thought it should look like this. http://www.airliners.net/photo/Martinair/Boeing-767-31A-ER/0232642/L/ Best Regards, Robert

	Yes, the Throttle Quadrant is not correctly modilised...

	If you were going to make a 767-400, the current throttle quadrant would fit in just fine. This is a picture of a 767-400 throttle quadrant.

See here : http://www.airliners.net/photo/Air-Canada/Boeing-767-375-ER/1552019/&sid=d3a2dd7... Also, the 777s use a slightly different arrangement of quadrant as the 757/767, although the 767-400ER uses the same quadrant as the 777, albeit with a different stabiliser trim control, as in the above image.

	Actually 767er91, the picture you posted as your link has the same throttle quadrant as the 767 I have in my link. �What I am saying is that the CS 757/767 has the 777/767-400ER throttle quadrant. �I suggest you look closer at your image. �The only difference between yours and mine is the little sticker beneath the fuel supply switches and the trim. The shape and throttle levers are what need to be changed in a future update. Best Regards, Robert

Best Regards, Robert If you look to the left of your linked photo, there is a different type of stabiliser (pitch) trim tab. On my photo link, the stabiliser trim tab is the same as the one modelled by Captain Sim. The 767-400ER and 777 have no warning lights on the throttle quadrant above the fuel cutoff switches whereas the 767-200/300/757 does. Also, the 767-400ER has the tab in the same style as your linked photo, but the 777 has the same style as the earlier 767/757s, although the word "STAB" on the left tab is replaced by "PITCH".

	I could care less which style of stablizer trim CS puts on their 767. What I am trying to say is that the general shape of the throttle quadrant (not the stablizer trim) isn't correct. I'm not trying to state the differences between the 777, 767-400, and the 767-200/300.

Oh, the thrust levers, I didn't notice it as there was a subtle difference! Indeed you are correct! Regards

	Don't forget though that the pedestal that the throttles rest on is not correctly modeled either. Sure the Throttle levers are wrong, but the throttle quadrant is wrong too. It should have a flat area beneath the fuel cutoff switches. Best Regards, Robert
