Default PSS 747 Depature Route from KPHX

Hi guys!

Still no answer to my problem - could somebody please just put his/her
PSS 747 to KPHX and activate the BXK1 SID from RWY 25R on the FMC - it
just takes 5 minutes. I am just interested, if your NAV-Display shows
the intercetion-point and DME-ARC-position of the SID - please help me
- you R my only hope!!!

Here is my problem in detail again:

I wanne depart from Phoenix Intl. (KPHX) RWY 25R via the BXK1 SID. The
procedure is as following: Climb runway heading to 1550´ then climbing
LEFT turn heading 240°, at 13 DME WEST of PXR VOR climbing RIGHT turn
heading 280° intercept BXK R-077 to BXK VOR.

I have downloaded the latast AIRAC-NAV-Data and can find the BXK1 SID
in the FMC - when I activate it, the first points of the SID (1550);
PXR/13; (INTC) are listed on the legs-page but are NOT shown on the ND
- there is only a magenta-line connecting the RWY and BXK-VOR.
When I depart from RWY 25R and follow the FD-LNAV-commands it follows
the right trajectory (left turn heading 240° till PXR/13 a.s.o.)but
the DistanceToGo-counter on the FMC runs the wrong way (distance to
the points are getting larger while I approach them!!!)

Can anyone tell me why the SID is not shown on the ND, but the
aircraft flies the right flightpath anyway?????

Is the PSS 747 FMC resp. ND not capable of showing points like (1550)
PXR/13 (INTC)???

Please help me - I wanne have it as real as it gets!

Thanx in advance...

P.S.: Is it normal that the PSS 747 is not able to turn during
Pushback although I press "1" resp. "2" after SHIFT+P???
