throttle idle settings

[ktroemer]

Hi to all....

hope you can help.
Is there a way where i can adjust the Idle settings of the throttle?

I use a hardware throttle and i want to have a little bit higher low idle settings on my 737-700.

can i adjust that on the CDU type file or is it coded to the aircraft.cfg in the sim?


Thank you in advance

Hi, I think if you open up both engine cowlings you should be able to find the fuel control unit, then look for a idle fuel adjusting screw and give it a half or full turn clockwise, and double check all the cowl latches before you go flying.

Just joking...I dont know...Andy

That will work for the JT9D Engine but not for the PW125 or GE90, nor the GE110......


Joking too..thanks for the nice answer.....was smiling here.....

Good to hear I didn't offend you. Yeah my dad flew DC-8's for Tigers long time ago, I suppose the new engines have a USB port...

Yeah.....they support .mp3´s now too....
wonder if they use windows or mac ????

[ANDYSMITH]

I have never seen a case where they needed to restart for no reason so I guess MAC.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh...i did...many times....

the last time outbound OMDB to LOWW...double Flight management computer failure.....The whole system went down on the 777-300...no displays at the CDU......no mp3´s...no porno...

Delay: 1,5 hours after change of both computers and system test....weired....!

I think they use Vista....
