When I engage A/T it will not stop at the bugs @250 below 10.000, and also when I climb to cru alt, the engines are un-stable in N-1, it will drop to 30% N1 drop speed and back up to 90% N1. Is this a bug or just me. Thanks Randy H

On the unstable N1 at high altitude, do you have any weather programs running like ActiveSky? If so, do you have any surpression of Turbulence effects? Just like the PMDG, the MD82 acts strange around FSX/FS9 turbulence which is implimented in the sim unrealistically (All the world's air-mass moves in one direction at random basically)

That said, What modes do you have selected and showing? AutoThrottle Armed isn't the same as having an active VNAV or Thrust mode selected, and if it's in VNAV, you'd need to check the aircraft ZFW or Fuel/Gross Weight is correctly selected and that it is in the correct Climb mode (and that the 250kt/10,000ft limits havn't been deleted from the CLM page).

Note that the VNAV will need to be engaged in climb, as selecting takeoff thrust will cancel it, and I think it can only be engaged above 800ft or so.

Also if you are getting "noise" from your throttle control it will also cause that. I have a separate Saitek throttle. When I move it to the bottom position (like I do on all my aircraft) the MD throttles will fall off then slowly recover.

Randy,

1. You may still have the TRP in TO.

2. Not enough info about the N1 problem, but I've never experienced this.
