Entry of weights in KGs but I don't use SI, I use Imperial.  Need to just switch it to Imperial me thinks or have option in PDCS to change it.

From Temp page 2 the flight level is not copied into trip and there is no way to indicate flight level within trip.

I really appreciate having the PDCS by the way and to see this early FMS type device in the Captain 737is really nice touch and usability.

We need a manual of the PDCS too. Info in Systems Flight manual is nice but just not enough information on the pages and operation of the device.  It is an early model FMS for the Captain 737 so I am excited to get that from Captain Sim.

Hi,

if I press the ENGAGE-key after entering the data, the  bugs don'T move into the right EPR-settings automatically. I have to do that manually.

Just want to know : Isn't that fixed at Version 1.6, or just do I something wrong ?

Thanks
Dietmar

It's not on the list of fixes in this update, so it hasn't changed since the previous version.
Hopefully it will be included on the next update.

It doesn't appear that it works as it should. In my testing the PDCS is pretty much useless. It provides no real usable information.
