Dear mopperle: Shouldn't at least STAR heading should be visible in the FMS DEP/ARR Arrival page? I can see SIDs in DEP page. I also flew from LIBD to LIBR. I found STARs and SIDs alright.

I made two flights. No. 1. from VGJR to VGHS. For VGHS I chose ILS rw 14, but did not find any approach transition option in the FMS DEP/ARR page. I was expecting MIMAR or IBANU approach transition. Next flight No. 2, from VGHS to VGEG. Expected ILS rw 23 approach transitions, ONEKA. But no approach transition option. But VGHS SID were available. Haseen Ahmad.

Thanks A-Pilot.

Dear: 1. Is there any write up of description and operation of the Autopilot Control Panel buttons including the VNAV button? 2. Any Video or PDF tutorial on VNAV? 3. Will VNAV work if I use pilot defined waypoints i e Place-Bearing/Distance with speed/alt constraints inserted? Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Thanks Hans.

Do you think that would be possible in future updates? Thanks, Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: When I press the Logitech yoke button that I mapped (button E) for AP disconnect, the FCP AP disconnect bar drops. But I want to have a soft disconnect so that the bar does not drop, i e, equivalent to pressing the AP/SP red button on the control wheel. How can I assign it? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear A_Pilot and Hans: 1. Just out of curiosity, I tried the same approach (VOR approach to RW 13 of LIBR) with VNAV on. At 2000 ft, the mode showing PATH green, I selected 600 ft in the AP control panel, pressed VS button, but pitch mode showed ALTS green. The plane leveled off at 1000 ft. I was expecting to see VALT green as VNAV still engaged. Then I pressed VNAV button, VNAV button light went off but ALTV white is showing. At this point I got totally confused, I pressed ALT button, VS button, ALTS or ALT green are still on and can not engage VS mode to descend. ALTS OR ALT mode do not go! I just want to cancel VNAV and engage VS mode. But Could you please help me? Does the real CRJ behave the same way in that phase of flight? It's scary, very close to final. 2. Actually, I need to read about AP control panel VNAV functions, mode indications in the FMA in detail. Is there any book (soft copy) available? Is Aerosoft CRJ Pro VNAV and ALTS behavior during approach match the real world CRJ? Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Dear A_Pilot: Thank you so much for your comprehensive and satisfactory reply. I'll try the approach again the way you described. If any issue, I'll post. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Dear Hans: 2. But if I want to cancel VNAV mode and engage VS, what should I do? 3. Is there any write up describing the Autopilot Control Panel buttons including the VNAV button? Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: I was making VOR approach to RW 13 of LIBR. AP, FMS NAV and VNAV were engaged. I was coming from LIBD. During initial approach the plane was at 3000 ft with VNAV on. The pitch mode was PATH. Then I seleted alt 2000, descend in PATH continued ok. But when I selected 600 Ft Minima, the plane descended up to approx 1000 ft. then ALT mode green came in without any action, armed mode became ALTV white. I couldn't descend any more. I tried to select VS mode and turned the VS wheel to descend to MDA 600 ft. But no help. Then I disconnected AP and landed manually. 1. Why the plane leveled off at 1000 ft when 600 ft was selected and VNAV was engaged? 2. Why I could not use VS mode to descend to 600 ft from 1000 ft? Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

A bunch of thanks Hans! Haseen Ahmad.

Dear mopperle: I didn't use that before. How to do that? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: I installed v2200 of the CRJ Prof. I set the plane CRJ 1000 at VGHS ( old VGZR ), Rw 14. I wanted to make a circuit flying back to the same rw 14. The waypoints I inserted in the LEGS page: VGHS144/2 (pilot defined place-bearing/distance), DAC342/10, then from DEP/ARR page selected ILS App Rw 14 and then EXEC. After that I pressed the F-PLN button. Then the sim froze and P3D v4.5 closed. Please help. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Thanks Hans. Haseen Ahmad.

I use Navigraph data manual install for other add-on airplanes. How to use Navigraph instead of Nav Data Pro? Is there any configurator for CRJ Pro? Thanks and regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Any luck on the CRJ Prof update? Haseen Ahmad.

When can I expect the update? Haseen Ahmad.

I installed first ECAMD2D.dll file. Then when v1002 update became available, I updated to v1002 with AS updater. Is that ok? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear All: I tried two flights with the new file. The gross weight of the A333 was 175.5 tons. In my opinion, the flight dynamics has improved acceptably. Thanks to Aerosoft. In my opinion, a very little fine tuning is required for pitch control. If I say in pet cent, it is 80% done. I did the manual landing in zero wind condition. I'll try later with Activesky on. Haseen Ahmad.

Dear sgreen91: Thanks for replying. 1. Okay, I'll try with CTRL-SHIFT-G. But Aerosoft should correct it so that clicking the TOGA switch on the throttles should produce proper TOGA pitch command. 2. By the way, does CLBxxx FD pitch mode (pressing the SPEED button) engage just after takeoff? Regards, Haseeen Ahmad.

I purchased download the AS A330 Pro last night. I have issues with pitch control during final approach while landing manually. Pitch is quite unstable, in fact unflyable. Would you please update the flight model? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: CRJ Pro update 2.0.0.1 applied. 1. On ground when TOGA is pressed, FD TO pitch command shows 0 deg pitch. At rotation shows 6 deg only pitch up. 2. After takeoff when SPEED button is pressed, FD pitch mode shows ALTS and on control panel ALT button lights up instead of CLB xxx mode being displayed in the PFD and SPEED button light up. I learnt that Aerosoft is looking into it. When can I expect the update? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: In CRJ 550, I was making RNAV approach to RW 05 of VGEG. At some point, I wanted to disengage VNAV and descend below VNAV constraint altitude of 4000. I pressed VNAV button. VNAV cancelled. I lowered altitude to 1500. Tried to engage VS mode. But VS does not engage. I had to disengage AP and fly and land manually. Any ideas how to get VS mode cancelling VNAV mode? Regards, Haseen Ahmad.
