Me neither. And in fact if the onside FMCG is inop (which is perfectly dispatchable according to the MEL) one has to use the offside AP anyway. Just annoying about the map range switching, still boggles my mind, on the boeing that didn't affect my map at all, one FMC was enough to drive two independent map displays with a lot more info than the bus manages.. Sorry about that rant.
