## What is 787 FMC?

787 FMC by 787 Guide
An interactive 787 FMC manual from the team behind the popular @787guide Instagram account!

You didn’t learn how to use your iPhone by reading the manual, so let’s face it, neither are you gonna learn how to use the 787 FMC by reading the FCOM. The best way to learn technology is to be hands on with it.

If you’ve just been hired to fly the 787 and want to prepare for the type rating, or maybe just started line training and feel overwhelmed when using the FMC - then this interactive 787 FMC manual is for you.

Navigate around the pages just like on the real thing, tap and hold on items for descriptions written in easy English. 

Important notice: Please note that this is an interactive manual that allows you to explore the pages of the FMC. It is NOT a simulator, and as such it does not have a nav database or computing functionality.

## Key features

- Interactive FMC page navigation
- Tap and hold for item descriptions
- Easy English explanations
- Hands-on learning approach
- Preparation for type rating

### 1/5 — Refund please

*2024-10-03, version 1.0.3*

I have thought this APP is a kind of training tool but this APP is just explanation about item on FMC. I was disappointed. Would you refund? I have just used this APP less than 10 minutes. Please refund. Thank you.

### 1/5 — Pretty useless.

*2024-09-05, version 1.0.3*

Interactive was misleading in description

### 5/5 — could you refund it?  i bought wrong version.

*2023-11-02, version 1.0.3*

could you refund it?
i am a 737pilot. i have to buy 737.
but i bought it ...haha
so could u refund it, if you can?
thank you.

### 1/5 — Money bad spent

*2023-10-17, version 1.0.3*

You cannot write anything on the CDU…it only shows you the different pages of the FMC….for that I already have the Fcom…i needed the app to practice…create fixes, route 2, create a route…and you cannot do anything of that with this… It’s almost just pictures of the FMC…. Not useful at all

### 1/5 — Not interactive.

*2023-05-11, version 1.0.2*

The description says that this is an interactive FMC. And for the cost of $20 I thought it would be. Unfortunately all entries are fixed. Not worth the $20 do not buy.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2023-05-09, version 1.0.2*

App crashing IOS 16.4.1(a). Tried deleting and reinstalling. Doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Not fully functional

*2023-04-12, version 1.0.2*

This is pricy and while it has some basic functions, it doesn’t really let you work through and practice actually putting inputs into it which is a big part of gaining familiarity. This lack of interactivity makes this quite basic and not worth the high price, and the same learning could really be gained from working through an actual manual with pictures. The description is misleading suggesting you can learn as you would on an iPhone by being hands on. 
The cruise and other parts are extremely limited and you cannot even see certain pages at all.
It is only clear at the bottom of the description that it is not a simulator at all but the upper descriptions of being hand on, allowing you to work through actually misleads just how non interactive this is in my opinion. I did not scroll down to read the full disclaimer on it as the initial part and cost suggested to me it would be suitable.

### 1/5 — Useless with no functionality

*2023-01-03, version 1.0.2*

I didn’t learn to use my phone looking at images either. Very misleading

### 4/5 — Worth it for First Timers

*2022-08-31, version 1.0.2*

Really helpful for learning the FMC if you’re new to Boeing. It’s got enough realism to practice finding information on different pages, and running through the CDU Preflight. But don’t expect to load any actual data - it doesn’t do that. It’s a descriptive tool not a fully interactive one, but highly useful on a type rating for getting familiar with the FMC.

### 1/5 — Not worth the 5 cents!

*2022-04-03, version 1.0.2*

I was in a rush and didn’t bother to read the reviews. If you are looking for a functional FMC simulator this isn’t it. I was looking for something to practice programming the FMC and thought this would work but this is not the case at all. A whole lot of fluff for more than it’s worth. Don’t waste your money on it. Apple should remove this or force the price to a more reasonable price like free.
