Hi Anders

No problem. I'll assign a TR for the T3 now. She's a beaut

Watch those 'overspeed under FL100' penalties matey. You don't want to be working for nothing

The four typerating flight for the Trident completed, a small mishap on one with the lights above FL100 but no others and no overspeeds

Well there we go 4 training flights complected Not without incidents Its a tricky aircraft to fly if you keep to the procedures, well the 300 is, not sure about the others yet Being a bit of a hybrid, glass cockpit but original FMC the manual misses bits out so I'm not sure if I'm not flying to procedures or there is bugs in the model There are a few issues with elevator trim IAS works fine but vs doesnt seem to engage with the ap and the manual trim on the ap only gives you up trim
Like the co pilot voice alerts. Not tried the pax address yet, seems it has to be timed with engine start an push back
Plenty to switches to keep you busy and most have a purpose. Not much in the way of controls if the hydraulics are forgotten about May have to get a copilot seat and get Wendy trained up
