performance setting - VNAV
Hello 2 question related to FMS set up.
I follow the procedure given by a real pilot on a KingAir 200 with Proline 21 on a youtube video (failling a proper documentation...)
In the perf menu, after setting the weight, it is supposed to guide you to a take off perf where the V1 V2 and VR are indicated, it is not the way it work on the Milviz KA350, am I missing something or is not implemented (and bonus question will it be implemented in the coming SP)
Also in the perf menu, after setting up the cruize altitude, we can see that the FMS automatically populate the flight plan with a TOC and a TOD, again it is not how it work in the milviz KA350, same question am I missing something ? Is it possible to have a TOC and TOD ?
Also it should be possible to review the flight plan in the central MFD, by setting the MFD in the "Plan" function but again I have no such option, just the pres position and the other one. Am I doing something wrong or is it Milviz issue a the moment ?

1. Speeds can be only set in KA by using REFS button on a small panel between PFD and MFD (left and middle screen). Unlike for jet-engine aircrafts with PL21, you will not find speeds in the FMS here.
2. No TOC here, we just have a "banana" arc. TOD will be displayed only when VNAV mode is active. Then you will see a magenta circle for TOD. It is also mandatory to lower alt preselector before TOD, otherwise descend will not be initiated.
3. Yes, this is tricky here. PLAN mode is only available if you exit PPOS (map) mode on the Left screen, Change it to Rose for example using "format" button and then you will be able to access PLAN mode on MFD. Then press MFD ADV button on the FMS and you will be able to move between waypoints in your plan and review it.
Hope this helps.
