Hello !

I tried the 777 yesterday, and a few things appeared strange to me :

*as you said, LNAV doesn't follow a course, but you fixed it

*I couldn't dial a V/S unless the AP is engaged and V/S mode is engaged
too. Is it supposed to be that way ? I would expect to be able to dial a
vertical speed while, for instance, holding altitude, then engage V/S to
descent/climb at the desired rate. In the same idea, say you descend at
some rate with V/S engaged, then you want to reach an altitude. I didn't
manage to arm altitude hold, instead I had to manually dial 0 on V/S
when reached the altitude, and only then, hold my alt. I don't know how
the real thing is, but it seemed odd to me. Maybe I missed something

*I didn't find a way to display a ADF needle

*I couldn't display VOR R or ILS R, only L worked. not implemented yet ?

*Is there really no radio stack on the board ?

I hope this all doesn't sound picky, I know the plane is in development,
but I wanted to point out those things I noticied.
Awesome plane besides this !! Thank you
