Hi, on E-3 and VC-137 cabin cockpit door can't be opened, is that correct? there are no passenger cabin view.
the thrusts reverses on the E-3 are not functional, aren't them?
The RUN Big Upper Fuselage Raddar switch is only available from a pop up 2D little panel and there are no switch on the VC, isn't it?
The last one, both of them are out of the "Captain Sim" fsx start menu,
(select aircraft).

Yes, those models don't have a dedicated cabin.

the thrusts reverses on the E-3 are not functional
This corresponds to the rw plane, which also has no such things.

The RUN Big Upper Fuselage Raddar switch is only available from a pop up 2D little panel and there are no switch on the VC
True again. You only have a 2D panel there. There's a rumour that, if you rotate the dish fast enough, it produces lift. We should try it.  Cheesy

I'm sorry, I don't understand that point.  Undecided

Ja,ja, Hi CoolP, thank you again, is not easy for me to communicate in English, (y am from Argentina), but is true that the real 707 rw E-3 plane do not have Thrust reversal deceleration sistem? y mean how does the real plane to be stopped after touchdown the runway if it only have the brakes and spoilers out? This is a Captain 707 E-3 model problem or the real plane do not have the Reversal sistem?
Shocked . . .
Y have a confusion.

Hi Raul.

It is like CoolP says - The real Boeing 707 E-3 does not have thrust reversers on it. The Captain Sim Boeing 707 E-3 is based on the real E-3 so it doesn't have thrust reversers either.

I assume that when it lands, brakes and spoilers are used to stop it. That's how I stop the CS 707 E-3 in FSX. Wink
