This a reference sheet I created for the FS2Crew NGX Reboot SOP1 that contains a summary of all the flows and the voice commands required to go through them. It is designed as a 2-page sheet (to be printed as such and perhaps laminated) with the gate/stand to cruise phase on the first page and cruise phase to gate/stand on the second page. Additionally there is a second 2-page sheet containing all the voice commands, as they are listed on the manual.

This is an updated version of the reference sheet I created last year (mentioned here). It contains a summary of all the flows and the voice commands required to go through them. It is designed as a 2-page sheet (to be printed as such and perhaps laminated) with the gate/stand to cruise phase on the first page and cruise phase to gate/stand on the second page. In the end there is also a small reference of the most used (for myself at least) voice commands. Additionally there is a second 2-page sheet containing all the voice commands, as they are listed on the manual.

Thanks. Will have a look..

Negative on LINDA. I am not using the Saitek panels anymore as I got a Cockpitsonic RMP and TCAS module. However I would be interested to have a look if you point me to the right direction.

Personally I owned the Saitek Radio panel and Multipanel and later the VRInsight combo v.2 (Boeing type). The Radio Panel works with all aircraft, although the Saitek drivers are not as good as SPAD. The Multipanel ONLY works with default FSX aircraft and there is support for the PMDG NGX and Maddog MD82 through SPAD only. Other aircraft are not supported. VRInsight on the other hand works with all aircraft (at least the mainstream ones) and support is added for newer ones as they come. The rotary knobs do take some getting used to, as Gregg mentions, but in the end I like them as they are since you are able to do make small or bigger changes, depending on the speed of rotation.

After a couple of flights, it appears that most of the things work perfectly. Excellent product enhancing the flight experience! Just one notice regarding the dome light. It has three positions, off --> on 1 --> on 2. As part of the captain's preflight procedure during the night the dome light must be turned on, i.e. on 1. Afterwards the FO will come and also manipulate the dome light putting it to on 2, i.e. one more turn clockwise. Then during the before start flow, instead of closing the dome light he FO just moves it from on 2 to on 1 instead of closing it completely, i.e. only one turn counterclockwise instead of two turns counterclockwise. Regards,

I fixed the Soft Mute. Had to add "repeat key press while held" that was no needed for PTT, but it is fine now. Fine with Ctrl as well.

It seems I am unable to assign keys that work for Soft Mute and Hard Mute. For Soft Mute I have used Backspace (which is the PTT key for FSInn). It is removed from any other assignment in FSX controls and is sent to the sim via my FSUIPC programmed joystick trigger. Although it is set to be repeated while held (as it is supposed to), when I press the PTT button, MUTE appears momentarily on the FS2Crew panel and then disappears. For Hard Mute I have been using Ctrl+Shift+Z successfully for the NGX but since in the 777 it is assigned as a shortcut for the aircraft itself through the FMC, I decided to use Ctrl+Shift+X, X and some other keys or key combinations without success. In all cases I made sure that the keys were not used for any other program or FSX itself. I had no problem assigning a button to open/close the main panel (C via an FSUIPC programmed joystick button). Any ideas?

Hi Richard, In my case it was the second time after 25-30 flights without issues, therefore I raised a ticket just in case PMDG can pinpoint the cause and since I had all the info fresh.. Regards,

I faced exactly the same problem today for the second time in the last couple of weeks. Although the A/P is on and all modes are announciated correctly on the FMA it does not control the aircraft. No other modes are working as well, but all instruments appear to be fine and I can hand fly the aircraft without any issues. It is as if the A/P does not have any control over the aircraft.. Only strange behavior was that the A/P disconnect horn does not sound when the I disconnect the A/P (via the A/P discon button) but the warning does appear normally on the master warn button. I will file a ticket as this is the second time this is happening..

I forgot to mention you need the payware version of FSUIPC to do this. If you have it, I'll let you know of the procedure.

I would recommend using FSUIPC to create a profile as it gives you much more control on FSX than the programming suite of Thrustmaster. You will really enjoy this excellent joystick!

There is such a flow here.
