Good morning Evertybody,
Please can anyone show me how to practice on the 737 NG FMS, is there any link or website where i can practice, or is there any application that allows me to understand more about it, with possibility of CDU entries.
Thank you so much in advance!

Count backwards: FCOM1 is your bible. Know it. Dream it. Literally. Word-by-word. Rest will come later. Oh, and the memory items and non-normal manouvres (windshear, RTO, etc).

Biggest thing you can do before any training course is to relax. Your nerves are your biggest enemy.

The 737 is pretty straight forward although kinda old fashioned. As others have said above, relax, read the FCOM and enjoy the fact that you have to deal with some very good documentation on your future plane, not the crap airbus put together for their counterpart.

Not a useful flight sim arguably, but rumour has it the PMDG 737 for MSFS has a pretty accurate system emulation of the NG.

Try reading Bulfer's excellent guide to 73NG FMS.

Full of good stuff, but will have you asleep before long if used for bedtime reading....
