"the most obvious and annoying I've found is a gentle dutch roll cruising at altitude. another I ""think"" I see is the timers during IRS alignment. thats it for me so far, now that I've read through the book."

Question: Did they model the split rudder?

[right][snapback]4616[/snapback][/right] </div> That is strange. I do know they advertised the split rudder and I did see the lower rudder deflected left while the upper rudder was neutral. I think that was when I just loaded the plane and not sure what condition the hydraulics were in. I'll look at it in more detail later, need to finish PHNL/RJAA in RFP first [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] Do you know what conditions are required to control only the upper or lower rudder? I'm guessing I need to pressurize only a particular hydraulic system and not another but I don't know which. Justin"

I finally found the split rudder. Don't blink though or you will miss it. For a split second when you move the rudder just a fraction you will see the split and then it reverts to moving as one piece. Even the line that splits the two parts disappears and is only visible for that split second.
