WX Dish Tilt and Brakes

First guys thanks so much for the update! I am doing a run from JFK to JAA as we speak. The radar was all sorts of colorful on climb out! Lots of fun.

My question relative to the radar is how do you adjust the tilt of the dish? I can't seem to find the control anywhere on the flight deck.

My next comment is to do with the auto-brakes...I set the auto brakes to RTO on take off and they normally apply on the climb out once the engine reduces to climb thrust (they should disengage once you rotate but it's a small bug not the end of the world). This time, however, I can't seem to get the brakes to disengage. I turned the auto-brake selector to off and tapped both brakes as per normal and got nothing. I don't think it is my rudder peddles as the rudder work correctly. Anyone else have this issue and if so how did you solve it?

Thanks for the great work!

I'm not exactly sure, but I think is the width of the beam aimed at the clouds. I could be wrong though. I never really use the gain knob, unless I accidentally click on it! This can happen a lot if the ride is bumpy. Grin
