The 'PILOT RESPONSE' challenge is good.
If there has been no pilot interaction (i.e. Updating the heading bug or making a radio call) with the aircraft for about half an hour an EICAS 'Advisory' message appears. This is closely followed by an 'Alert' and finally by a 'Warning' accompanied by the relaxing tones of the Master Caution.
I haven't really mastered the game yet because it takes about 30 minutes to test each variable, but I can tell you that transmitting on the radio will stop the caution but simply retuning it won't. Likewise the 'LGHT OVRD' switch cancels it but adjusting the 'DOME' light has no effect.
I'm sure all the actions that cancel the warnings are written in the Boeing Owner's Manual somewhere, but these long-haul flights are such a bore that it gives me something to do whilst on HF.
