A big traffic pile up caused me a bit of lateness

United don't fly NG 737s. Does your VA allow you to fly this?

By the way you might like this site if you haven't already seen it: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UAL955
Note you are eastbound from SFO to SAN - so an ODD flight level would be expected (eg F310). I flew the NG from KSJC to KSAN a couple of nights ago. Southwest fly them down there at F410. (similiar distance). The flightaware site might be useful to you planning your flights in the US.

UVA do allow NG's.
I wasn't sure about the FL really. Thanks for telling me.

No problem

I have many years of airline simming under my belt, so only too happy to help. I fly more often than not in the USA, so know the area pretty well.

Nice shots Kelburn, sounds like you are enjoying UVA.

Yea, whenever I am trying to figure out levels in standard RVSM countries, I just sound out 'Weven, Eodd' like the way it is written. :rolleyes:

. Helps me anyway.

How do you do that?
I try clicking on the button next to the key I want but it doesn't seem to work

Well, It comes up with the Speed automatically if you correctly inserted the weights into the FMC at the start of the flight. Did you do that?
