When disconnecting the AP or doing the preflight test, I can't get the red flashing light to stop flashing on the FMA. Where is the disconnect button you are supposed to push twice? The button on my yoke does not work.
Thanks. Colin in PDX |

You should use the switch located in the yoke (z key by default in FS) to disconnect the AP. First press disconnects it, second one makes the light stop flashing.
The same is applicable with the AT switch (but I don't remember the FS key for this  )syn |

Press that one |

Much more complex than the boeings. You can tell that this plane is in the middle of the evolutionary movement from the two-VOR one ADF simple AP no AT airplanes like the 727, and the very automatic ones like the Airbuses of the 777. Still have yet ot complete a full flight, but working on it. |
