+The current Boeing 777 hydraulic system is basically working, it will be expanded in the future for more realistic behavior.
+The hydraulic systems can (and must) be fully controlled via the 3D cockpit switches on the overhead panel. As in real life, the following behavior should be expected:
+* The Left hydraulic system is powered by an engine driven pump (EDP) and supplemented by two on-demand Electric motor pumps (ACMP). It operates wing & tail flight controls (ailerons, elevators, rudder) and left thrust reverser operation.
+* The Right system is powered by by an EDP from the right engine and supplemented by an ACMP. It operates flight controls, right thrust reverser operation and the normal brake system.
+* The Center system is powered by two ACMP's and supplemented by two on-demand air turbine-driven pumps (ADP). It operates the landing gear actuation, nose & main gear steering, flaps & slats, flight controls and the reserve brake system.
+When no engine is running, the APU (if running) and/or Ground Power (if connected and activated) provide power to the center system's ACMP's. Make sure the ACMP's are on when you want to use the center system on APU/Ground Power.
+A realistic Ram Air Turbine (RAT) and reserve system have yet to be modeled.
