It’s really challenging trying to grab ALL the throttles, and if you accidentally move one, you have to do this silly equaling-out procedure by either closing all of them, or firewalling to get the levers to line up again. Besides, how often are people using asymmetrical thrust except during tight taxi turns?

Is the ex-135 completely flyable with the virtual controls or do I need a physical joystick?
-
Denver has them as well as the South Florida DLC airports and other DLCs. Are you referring to the original airports that are included with FS2?
FS2. The lights don't have to illuminate anything, just give us some bright blue centerline dots at least. Denver DLC only has one lit airport as far as I can tell.

$42...that's absolutely absurd.

Sounds like how we felt when we went on a day trip to Manly last time we were in Sydney. Such a densely packed seething sea of people around the Circular Quay area. They just surge on and off of the ferries. It was awful after our much quieter and less populated Adelaide.
ha! I can understand that. I live in Los Angeles city so I thought New York was roughly the same size, but not even close. Seeing that many buildings block after block was just mind blowing. I've seen pictures of NYC but the VR really puts into perspective. Not sure if I'll be flying that area very much.

Yes that is intended behavior. If you set flaps to up it should behave like a normal airbrake and stay extended if you let go.
It's a new feature not a bug...
Ok. I'll map it to my wheel brake button, it'll work like a charm.

The airbrake automatically retracts if you extend flaps
The air brakes are retracting the moment you let go of the button. I have to hold the button down to keep them up. It should be a toggle function on the fighters like before the update.

The south Florida airports have taxi way lights.
I was referring to the default scenery. I haven't seen any with lit taxiways yet. But if there are some let me know please.
-
We desperately need taxi way lights. Night flights are impossible if you're trying to taxi to and from the runway. Even some simple blue centerline lights would help,
-
Which runway did you takeoff from at KLAX? And was VTU the first waypoint that you added?
yep. The runway was 25L.

It has the same LNAV as the B747, at least when you fly on autopilot. It might behave differently on "copilot".
Where exactly do you intercept the "course" (route??), so that I can reproduce this? I didn't have many issues with her yet.
it was from klax to ksfo. Right after takeoff on runway heading, I turned the heading bug to intercept the course towards VTU with LNav armed, Ive tried 20-40 degree intercepts and she starts to turn like she's engaging the route, LNAV becomes active... But turns right through the course and continues in the same turn. Only after I put it on course myself did it maintain it.
-
Does the 777 have different Lnav intercept parameters? I had a hard time getting it to intercept course from a 30-45 degree intercept heading. Sometimes it'll just put itself in a constant turn. I could be screwing something up, but just wanted to know if it's designed different.
