How do you adjust the course indicator on the horizontal situation
indicator? I don't seem to be able to see it on the panels nor can I
find a keyboard equivalent for it.

It depends how realistically MS has modelled it. In the PMDG 747 for FS9
and, I assume on the equivalent for FSX, as on the real thing, this is done
automatically by the FMC from the info regarding the arrival runway that the
crew input by selecting the DepArr page. As you approach your arrival
airport, the FMC will tune the Nav radio to the ILS frequency and set the
course of the runway heading.

Whether MS has modelled the default 747 in FSX to be this realistic I don't
know. They certainly didn't with FS9! Smile
