They are not that blurry on my PC, I'm not sure if I have them on my photobucket account anymore, but I'll see what I can do.

Like I said, not a major issue and only applied to the overhead panels at the beginning.

BTW - When Tom says use the "decend now" option, that is usually the best as the CDU/FMC usually makes a not-entirely-accruate prediction of the decent.

The "descend now" which I use about 10nm from the T/D point (not to do with this tutorial) normally sends the aircraft into a 1000 fpm descend and one of the functions of it is to make the descent much smother, eg. no need for the speed brakes. 
 
As soon as the profile is recaptured, VNAV should become accurate.

Looks like an excellent document Tom and, when I have an hour spare, I will try it out and let you know how I get on. Smile Although, I can't read the red numbers. Ermm

Just need to get my 757 working and then I can have a go with your plan. Thumbs%20Up

Thanks, if you need any help with it just ask. 
 
I hope you get the problem sorted out soon.

Speedbird-001 have you tried changing a few things with the animation panel? (I believe it's shift+2 or something similar). Perhaps try taking the chocks off and see if that triggers it to fix itself!

SkyFly,
I have tried to remove the chocks, but the panels aren't showing either in the cockpit. It s a bit of a problem. Disapprove I was rather hoping someone had experienced the same situation, and had an answer, or someone knew the solution.
