If you use GSX for parking, be sure to restart couatl before selecting service vehicles. Keep in mind that the processing power in this FMC is equivalent to the old Intel processor.
There are certain calculations that you perform through the CDU that take a surprising amount of time to complete. Don't forget to press the MIC button on the ACP panel below the radios panel corresponding to the radio you want to transmit on or no-one will hear you online.
Pilots of the NGX will likely be less prone to forgetting this step. Remember to reach up and transfer the power source from the engines to the APU prior to cutting fuel to the engines. Unlike thethe transfer of power between the engine generators and the APU is manual. The APU will run while airborne, but it will not start unless the aircraft is on the ground. When soft disconnecting the AT, the disconnect switches need to be clicked twice with a second pause in between to avoid the auto throttle disconnect EICAS message and associated caution. When planning, normal remaining fuel values are much higher than you are used to. Take off rolls will be much longer, and the climb rate will be sluggish, particularly at acceleration altitude when retracting the flaps. In this case, the throttles will only move manually until that point. The engines will accelerate and stabilize. White lights illuminate at the ends of the switches to indicate the start process is in progress. Pull the black cylindrical overhead Start switches for both Engines 3 and 4. We need this to see the N2 values during the start.
