I've not taken the 700 out since Garry did a zillion paints for it but have just taken the opportunity to whizz her up to FL202 where she showed a very respectable 200kias. On landing at Ostend.. I managed just once to get a prop to feather and I was trying hard too :lol: Elevator trim is terribly over sensitive on this as it can be with the Vanguard and other Viscounts from time to time. Other than that.. it does pretty much what it says on the box ;-)

Hi Macs,

There are four prop below fine pitch stop lamps in the centre coaming with a dual filament locks removed lamp beneath them. Can't remember if I put a synchroniser switch on that one, I know I did on the V745, It might be by the fuel gauges on the right sill panel?

cheers

Fraser,
I cannot find the switch in any of the main or sub-panels, but no big deal, as it gives me more to pass time during long flights :lol: . I can actually get them synchronized via regular throttle level meddling. Thanks again for your input.
regards,
Macs :)
