757 Jetliner - Freemium

 I have a question about the night lighting. While in VC mode can you select only to have the gauges illuminated. At the moment i can only seem to have the entire panle lite up but if i switch to the main panel view you can select to have the panel illuminated or just have the gauges illuminated. Does any one else expierince this. I also have the QW 757 where you have this choice. Apart from that, thanks for an excellent piece of software.

 

                           Thanks Shaun

Update:

 

I think I found my problem relative to flight plans in the FMS. I normally originate flight plans in FlightSim Commander. I tried recreating a flight that had not worked useing only the FSX default flight planner accepting what was automatically originated within the defaults. This seems to work fine. Apparently there is something relative to FSC origination that the JF757 FMS does not like. I get a "Load Error" with any flight plans originated with that program. It appears that everything works just fine if the flight plan is originated only within the default FSX flight planner.

Speed was unbelievably slow so I went to sleep and left it alone. This morning, I had the white Icon mentioned by others that was not useable.   2. This morning, I tried to download again with the "Server One" alternate option. Download speed was 100 times faster.   3. Closed the link and went to the alternate "Server Two" and speed was doubled again and completed in only a few mins. This download worked just fine for the installation.   So far the only thing I am having trouble with is selecting/creating flightplans in the FMS. Pre-Loaded flight plans load just fine but they are limited to Cardinal Major Airports (and far from all of them). All flight plans in my "My Documents Flight Simulator X" folder give me a "Load Error" when selected. I thought maybe waypoints were limited in the FMS data capability so originated flight plans with only the origin and destination airports (for example KLWBKBTR) and got the same thing. Probably just a short between the ears but I have not found anything in the manual addressing this yet. Possibly the ISG FMS might be an alternate option that might have more or less capability.   Thanks again Just Flight! RTH

Thanks Martyn, and thanks for the kind free contribution of the nice bird.

 I dont know if my previos post was mist but i need a couple of questiosns answered. My first question from my original post is. While in VC mode can you select only to have the gauges illuminated. At the moment i can only seem to have the entire panel lite up but if i switch to the main panel view you can select to have the panel illuminated or just have the gauges illuminated. Does any one else expierince this. I also have the QW 757 on my system where you have this choice. My second question is trying out the aircraft doing circuits and bumps round my local airport (EGFF) i am having some problems trying to capture the localizer, i tune every thing in correctly to runway 30 which ILS 110.70, the plane turns on the runway heading but fails to decend, what am i doing wrong. I have read the manual and tried diffirent things but still have no joy. I approach to cxapture the ILS at the right angle and altitude which is 2500 ft or i ave tried 3000 ft but as i said, it will pick up on the runway heading but fails to decend. Hope i have explained myself ok. Apart from the nice piece of kit.
