    Can someone explain the autopilot altitude control? I don't get it. I can't have the HOLD button for alt and the V/S button together. Whats with that? Do i just need the V/S speed button to climb? If i use the HOLD the plane decends and im at like 2000 feet on climb.

    Ok I just didn't leave it on long enough. Can someone (Radar man?) give me a link to the FMC explanation and can someone tell me how to follow a GPS Flight Route?
