Found 3 things during first flight.

Starting off with, she looks amazing and so are the sounds!

--------1------

During my first flight F100 KLM UK livery

I could not set the FLX temp, I can put it into FLX mode and rotate the knob and see in blue that the FLX temp is changing, but the thrust setting would not change and remained at 1.69 (hehe)

However exporting the FLX from the EFB on the performance calculator, than it would take the flex temp and adjust the thrust setting.

---------2------------

It also had no texture on the gear lever after I toggled it to gear up (at night), it became purple when it should've been red (the classic missing texture color) livery issue? Install issue? (F100 KLM UK livery)

---------3-----------

When using simbrief, and importing the flightplan with it's given cruise alt from simbrief (e.g FL240) and I than override this within the FMC(MCDU) with lets say FL300 it will say "CRZ ALT INVALID" even though it says MAX and OPT FL to be FL350. And thus it will not turn on the PROF on the AP.

Am not sure if this due the weight being to high and thus above MAX crz alt, or if the FMC does not calculate it, or if this is a simbrief thingy. (knowing that I had 100 pax onboard which is full)

Am new to the fokker, am reading the manual as I go, so I could totally missed something.

Thank you!

I do need to add one thing btw! During the cruise, I changed to manual mach mode .70 while on ATS, everytime the throttle moves I get very briefly a AFCAS Target and a chime.

Hello and thanks for the feedback

It looks like you need the Flight Directors set to on in order to set the FLX temp. The checklist has you set the FD's on before setting the EPR rating, but we'll check the logic.
The purple colour of the gear handle is intentional. While the manuals describe the colour as blue, we found that on real aircraft, its anything from a warm white to a very light pink. The purple colour seemed to be the most prevalent so we went with it. Check out a video here: https://youtu.be/MUiNikgXSWA?si=LbxXWlnA5WzosC7p&t=115
You'll see the CRZ alt invalid message anytime the FMC calculates that you'll not reach top of climb before top of descent. We'll have a look if anything is happening to the OPT altitude reading.
I'll add that to our bug reporting.

Thanks.

JF - John.

Hey John!

Thank you for the feedback on my points!

On point 2, I recall from the Simulators I've been in once that the fokker had a red light out of the middle. Am not sure if you have anymore pictures of this? Sadly the simulators are long gone here.

Again thanks for coming back at this!
