Oh the crap you had to put up with from time to time... thank God for a cockpit door.

All 737s have manual reversion for the flight controls so no RAT. Two IRUs and Two FMCs.

Thanks. Was thinking more along the lines of an HMG on the RAT and the progress/legs pages associated with STBY NAV.

I for one am thrilled for this exciting development & only regret that I won’t be able to fly these new aircraft, as I’ll be in A350 class when they arrive.

The LORAN receiver is behind the jump seat.
