  1. When does the FMS tune the localizer when approach is set up and the FMS is in autotune mode?
  2. On the ground though, just wait?
  3. Let me explain why I think this mode should be kept and expanded to allow saving states: Yesterday, I was doing some practice approaches using saved career mode flights. Today, I wanted to fly a "real" flight. But my career mode state was set in the weird way the plane was left after my most recent practice approach. If non-persistent mode worked the way I would argue it should, then these different uses could be totally separated.
  4. Last couple flights I've been using pitch mode or handflying to keep the pitch not above 10 while letting the ATS keep the speed at the 200-250, then for further climb using FD SYNC to bring the pitch to 10, then hitting FLC once thrust has stabilized
  5. I'll check next time this happens
  6. On the ground, just give it time?
  7. Is there anything to do in response to FUEL LO TEMP? Or just wait until it warms up?
  8. There isn't a landing V2 speed though
  9. I believe a couple errors (typos) exist in the operations reference. "Flaps 20/Gear Down/Single Engine" speed is written "Vref +14 +5". Looking at the included checklist for a single engine landing, I think this should be "Vref +15". I also think (let me know if I'm mistaken, please), the "min maneuvering" speeds should be "max maneuvering" speeds.
  10. I'm not at my sim PC right now, but it's on the thrust limit page. Either click TO when you do the in-range checklist or if you prefer a different value, enter it in TGT on that page
  11. It's in the FMS, index->prog page, and displayed on the MFD. There's also the rule of thumb of ground speed * 5 = descent rate, altitude to lose * 3 = miles to descend.
  12. The THRUST LIMIT page displays a TO N1 once you are below 15,000FT, set that as your N1 target. The trim is recommended to be set at 5 for now, but there is apparently a C/G chart forthcoming
  13. It would be very, very helpful for practicing takeoff and landing (and other maneuveurs) in this plane if flights could be saved in non-persistent mode. As is, there is no way to practice landing or taking off without interfering with the career mode, unless you begin each flight by starting from cold and dark.
  14. Is it possible to automatically enable VNAV speeds in the climb? The FMS seems to require clicking RESUME VNAV SPEEDs, even if VNAV was armed for takeoff
  15. How should the transition to climb be accomplished? I tried using FLC with ATS in N1 CLB, but it immediately pushed up the throttles to the N1 climb rating, overshot the set speed of 250, then pitched up to 15 degrees and climbed at 6000 FPM before stabilizing at 250 knots and a more reasonable pitch.
  16. Found it on Chegg (https://www.chegg.com/flashcards/cl650-a283a319-6995-47dc-8ca6-268d38b4b72a/deck) Looks like cowl a/i should be on below 10 with visible moisture and wing a/i should be on below 5 with visible moisture
  17. Could a go-around procedure and anti-ice procedures (when to use cowl and engine anti-ice) be added to normal checklists?
  18. The TO value decreases during descent, should it be re-updated before landing? Also (I mentioned this in a different post), an APR value also shows up. Should that be used. EDIT: Answer: No, APR is the Automatic Power Reserve N1, not the approach N1
  19. Intermittently during flight in icing conditions, even with the probe heat on, a STALL FAIL warning comes up. It goes away after a minute or so.
  20. On the Thrust Limit Page, below 15,000 feet, an APR value appears. Should this be entered as the approach N1 TGT or should the TO value be used? Should the wing anti-ice be used when in icing conditions or only when ice is detected? If it must be used on approach, does that mean the approach must be made at the required higher thrust? EDIT: Answer: APR is the Automatic Power Reserve, not Approach N1. On approach with Wing-Anti Ice on, approach must be made at the higher thrust. EDIT: Chegg seems to provide an answer for a/i usage https://www.chegg.com/flashcards/cl650-a283a319-6995-47dc-8ca6-268d38b4b72a/deck , and here https://www.chegg.com/flashcards/cl-650-red-limitations-memory-fc0992a3-0b99-4e7b-ba44-a2d2536d6d18/deck
  21. When I try to enter a value into Delta VREF, I get "Invalid entry" EDIT: Per real-world info, delta VREF can only be used when the runway is contaminated
