I believe that after you select "Y2", if you go back and choose CALIBRATE
you will be prompted to calibrate the second joystick. At that time you can calibrate the
throttle. Then when you enter DESCENT the throttle should be activated.
This is assuming that you are using the .B50 or .ADV file that works with DESCENT and the
throttle instruction line is properly entered.

Hope this helps.
