Hi guys!

Has anyone managed to do a merge to get the FMC from the LD767 into the CS757? Also if I extend the RAT while on the ground, I cant get it to re-stow... any ideas?

Are you talking about the RAT on the 757 or LD 767?

When rats deploy the mechanics have to put it back in. Maybe thats why you cant get it to go back in. Also why would you deploy it on the ground? In real life if you are any where near it when it goes off it could hit you it can kill you and the noise it creates when it goes off is so loud that the people in the airplane testing the system have to wear ear protection.

I'm talking about the 757... there is a window that you can open to activate the external animations. One of the animations is for the RAT, so you can make it look like its having an inspection. When I click on the RAT it extends, but if I click on it again to restow it it wont go back.

That's what would happen in a real plane. As PJFlysFast already stated, they have to be put back into their bay by mechanics. There's no way to restow one in FS.

That's pretty much it. Stay away from that button unless you actually need to use it...same principle as fire extinguishers, passenger oxygen, etc.

Next Flight: TBA!
