The default 737 has 3 fuel tanks, left, right and centre, but the indicators show fuel amounts for left and right, not centre

Is there another 737-400 cockpit that will give me the fuel quantity for the centre tank as well??

Try here. Look for the 737 panel. The panel has gauges for all three tanks.

supernova - press 'Alt/Aircraft/Fuel' and you can get the fuel state anyway.

Thanks for that, I downloaded that panel and must say that its miles better than the default panel, I do like the trim indicator

I recommend this panel, if all you are using with the 737-400 is the default panel

very nice looking panels, BUT  :o

Using autopilot I noticed the following:
Altitude increments in 1,000' ONLY
Heading Indicator increments in 10 degrees ONLY
and other mistakes . . .  :-[

I hope that it is me that is in error with trying to set these and not the panel because they are attractive  :)

Ken Mitchell does an excellent panel for the 737-200 (the smaller version, before Boeing 'stretched' it) which has ALL the gauges

...that's nice nav...very pretty and looks easy to use....if you use it then i'm sure it will be sound....thanks...commoner


UPDATE...;..Downloaded and yes it is a super panel..the included plane is nice too.....but Nav...what does this mean.....I don't seem to have it but it still seems fine...commoner.....and I quote....

"You will also need a 3.X version of  Pete Dowson's FSUIPC.dll, it does not have to be a registered version."

Hi commoner - that worried me too, but in the end I went ahead and installed it. It seems to work fine, even though I don't have that file as far as I know.

If you get tired of the 'ordinary' livery on the version Ken provides, you can try this one (Page 38 in Simviation):-

I managed to switch liveries just by substituting the new texture and changing the first part of the 'Aircraft.cfg' file (the bit before 'General').

Takes me back. I used to ride around in AA 737s painted like that when the 737 was the 'latest thing'  :)

..thanks again nav...had a few trips around the South East of the UK and it's really cool..

 Looks a nice Livery you have there...rather see BA though being English....

  See you..commoner

Funny to think that the legendary 737 started life as a narrow-bodied 100-seater. That's the version I loved, I did a lot of travelling round the USA at one time.

I don't think BA were allowed to buy the early 737s. The UK Government made them buy Tridents and BAC-111s.

LOL..sounds just about right for our goverment....just forced into an ILS BC approach at Humberside.......was all set up for 21 and ATC gave me 03...........just being bloody minded as Yorkshiremen are ...still I always enjoy new panels.....keeps you on your toes when something jumps out at you like that and you don't know where the L the right switches are....commoner

UPDATE....found this on the same page you gave for the AA.....experimental livery.....nice...

"You will also need a 3.X version of  Pete Dowson's FSUIPC.dll, it does not have to be a registered version."

That means you need the free version of FSUIPC off of the FS2004 Utilities and Essentials page 1. It's not freeware anymore, so that's what the registered thing is. You don't have to pay for it though, just download it on SimV.
If there is a TCAS system or something else that requires tracking AI, that's what it's used for more than likely. Without FSUIPC, you'll just have a blank traffic radar, no biggie.

Nice lookin' plane and panel though. About time someone got the "Rain Repellant" gauge in there. When the 737 debuted they actually thought they could repel the rain off of some parts of the fuselage.

..ok Saratoga..thanks for that.....rain repellent eh.....could do with some if that at times myself.....commoner  ;D

Hello
Does anyone know how to fix the problem of the HDG increments going up in 10 and the ALT in 1000's??? Or is the best thing just to download a new panel??
