Flaps 30 on landing?

Hi Guys,

does anyone know if it is possible to change the Flaps Setting for the Approach Reference speed from "Flaps 40" to "Flaps 30" within the PM Boeing FMC (approach page)? I don´t seem to be able to make inputs there.

Besides that, I am quite happy with the new builds, especially when updated with Navigraph NavData.


Best regards,
Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

yes it´s possible. You can choose between 15, 30 and 40.

Best regards

haha BA lands their 777's at flaps 20 to save fuel and protect the environment even we are catching the green bug now!! :-)

Yeah Right protect the environment... Save a load of money on FUEL!! We land also the Bus FLAP 3 to save on Fuel...

Regards,

Roberto

OK, found it. But you can only put data in manually there, right? At least on my machine, there is no calculation done.
EDIT:
I´m talking about the "Flaps/Speed" setting, LSK 4R on the "Approach Ref" page. The "Flaps VREF" setting on LSK 1R does not seem to be changeable at all.
