...buggy behavior on calls to ground crew. Sometimes they talk, sometimes they don't.

1. My PNF calls at takeoff have ceased. I have the LM set correctly to allow it.
2. I never hear the PREPARE for TAKEOFF call
3. I only get the disconnect ground crew call after I've started engines after pushback.

Am I correct ion assumig the PA mic must be lit to hear cabin announements and that the INT button must be lit to hear ground crew (with the arrow buttons pointing UP)?

Also, I am unable to track down some of the sound files to find out what sound is rendering the sound in the cockpit that sounds like a cat screeching intermittently. Might it have something to do with presurization (I see the wheel moving during it)?

That is the auto-throttle actuators (they physically move the thrust levers). It is accurately modeled.

Are you sure INT is selected? Don't be too slow to react to their calls otherwise they "vanish" without trace.

Check the volume in MD config? Also the FO seems to disappear on a go-around or where you land and takeoff again. The DFGC must reset before the FO is "ready for takeoff" again (must be on the ground for at least 1 minute before the DFGC will reset).

You mean the Captain to the cabin crew? Must be activated by yourself (right click the Cabin Attendant button)

Odd. Check ground services config, and not presently refuelling.

Which version do you have? 2006/2008 Std or Pro/2010 Std or Pro?

Best regards,
Robin.
