FS2CREW: DEFAULT AND PMDG 737 (FS9)

HiA year after I bought the 747-400 ( what a great sim ) I now have the 737-800/900. If I deploy the spoilers they will not retract. Retraction can only be achieved via the VC.Is there any way around this ?I use a Saitek X52 Throttle and joystick. The throttle has a slide control on it. Would this be any good to raise / lower the spoilers.I fly online with VATSIM and PC works really well in 2D but not quite good enough in VC. On the approach it's busy enough already without switching views and using a mouse to retract the spoilers.Any ideas please ?TksRoyH

Hi!I've got this problem: with PMDG800/900 series if I click on the "next" button after the take off page nothing happens. I must open the approach page manually from the view menu of the panel.The same thing happens with the 600/700 series but I can't open the window manually because I don't have any list for the FS2Crew windows in the panel view so I can't perform any approach with FS2Crew.Why I can't open automatically the approach page?And how can I get the windows list of FS2crew also in the 600/700 version?Thanx to everyone in advance!p.s.I've got the cd version and all the updates.

I recently reinstalled the PMDG 737 and the FS2Crew for it.I remember in the past there was a detailed tutorial for flying the plane with fs2crew from KFSO to KLAX. I beleieve the author was Metzinger. Can't fid on Google.Anybody?Eytan Ornstein

Hello all,Can I use the 737 Default Edition with FSX on Vista?I can't find it anywhere. Greetings,Herman

I thought you my find this interesting. It's a PP presentataion on the new Boeing SOP'shttp://www.b737.org.uk/newb737sops.ppsEnjoyDave F.

HiI have been reading but so far I have not been able to get the copilot to start the engines and also just want to confirm if 600/700 are usable as well with FS2Crew, I have the latest patches for every thing I believe. Thanks in advanceRegardsWayne

Ocasionaly, when I click the flaps up command, the FO does not respond. This causes the program to stall because I don't get the after t/o checklist and can't get passed the t/o page.Any ideas?Dave F.

HiHow do you plan any airport with Fs2crew, do you just do a standard FS9 IFR flight plan and start up FS2CREW or do you have to load into into FS2CREW, thanksRegardsWayne

HiI have been away from FS2crew for some time and have reinstalled for use with the PMDG 737 800 but when i click the buttons such as c for config i do not get a page coming up, have tried to load from the 2 D cessna panel but still nothing for any out them except i hear the voice when I hand over to the co piloy, does not work from the 2d and the 3 d panel, any body have any ideas, thanksRegardsWayne

I got a new pc. Installed FS9 from scratch+ patch 9.1.All addons are working fine including FS2Crew for the ATR.After installing the PMDG 600/-900 and its updates, I reinstalled FS2Crew from the Flight1 wrapper. The install was completed, but the main panel does not show the CPAL icon.What is wrong here?Eytan Ornstein

Would appreciate advice on exactly how to access PMDG Options and change display to large EFIS.Many thanks, Sandy

Hello,Fs2crew is stuck at the t/o page.I manage to preform the before t/o but all buttons freeze.I have to go the other way around to the approach breifing to continue ?Never happend to me since I bought the product, any idea ?

Hi, I just recently installed FS2Crew, the PMDG 737-800/900 edition. I loaded a flight, and there were no numbers in the windows. On the config page, there were the time and dep time, and other things, but I could not change the numbers, b/c I could not read them. They were broken up, any ideas?Thanks

What is the procedure for pushback when using AES? Is there a way to skip the FS2Crew pushback feature, without sc**wing up the flow of FS2Crew? I'm also using W/F Airbus, LVD 767, F1 ATR and PMDG 747.Dave FisherCYYZP4 Prescott 3.2e 478p 800mhz 1mg CPUP4P800SE Asus Motherboard2.5 gig PC3200 DDR RAM 400MHZGeForce 7600GT/512 OC'dMaxtor 80 Gig ATA 133 HD x2WDC WD800 80 Gig HDAntec 500watt true powerSharp 19 inch LCD MonitorSaitek AV8R-01 Joystickhttp://fs2crew.com/linepilot.jpg

Does the FO control the AP during landing? Twice now, the AP has disconnected at about 3-400ft during a managed, single channel, ILS approach. The problem is, the aircraft was wildly out of trim and nosed down abruptly upon AP disconnect, slamming the aircraft into the ground. BTW, it was the PMGD -700.Dave FisherCYYZP4 Prescott 3.2e 478p 800mhz 1mg CPUP4P800SE Asus Motherboard2.5 gig PC3200 DDR RAM 400MHZGeForce 7600GT/512 OC'dMaxtor 80 Gig ATA 133 HD x2WDC WD800 80 Gig HDAntec 500watt true powerSharp 19 inch LCD MonitorSaitek AV8R-01 Joystickhttp://fs2crew.com/linepilot.jpg

Hi all,Looking at jumping ship from the 767 to the 737, just curious I have the PMDG 737 package, is the 737 FS2crew version as comprehensive and as realistic and smooth as the Level-D 767 version?I absolutely love the 767 version, will I be as impressed with the 737?

Title pretty much sums it up !I am just worried about the autopilot key assignments. 737 wants A and tab+a but aparently 747 wants ctrl tab d & m for its cmd buttons.How to I use both without having nasty conflicts ???apart from that everything is running really well :-)Mark

can anyone tell me what key raises and lowers the stairs on the 737?Thanks in advanceBob AdamsKSNA

Hi, I have used pmdg737 version for a while, recently got the pmdg 747 version and upgraded it to latest patch.However, now 737 version is crashing fs9. Any ideas??Mark

Hello:The info on your site says it works with freeware 737s that follow a certain convention. Do any payware besides PMDG (like Wilco's)follow this convention so that they can be used with the default edition?K

Hi All,I have the PMDG737NG-600/700 version of FS2Crew, and have a normal install that is working just fine. I recently decided to remove FS2Crew from the 737-600 setup, while keeping it in my 737-700 setup, which is my most-often used setup. Seemed pretty simple by merely putting the original files from the backup back in.I restored the panels backup to the 737-600 panels folder, and went o test this new setup. What I found is that the new -600 2D panel environment seems to be missing sections, such as the front view, and pieces of the panel setup. I thought this would be a relatively easy switch, but it seems I am missing something, or that I am going to have some prob…

Nn the departure briefing window, FS2Crew has you select an SID you would like to use on your flight. I'm having problems with this feature. Where are the SID numbers located on an SID? When I type in 5 (like for the Rocki5 departure out of KDEN), it plays an SID totally different to what I need, usually some sort of departure out of Europe...any help is great.

Hi Bryan,It's been a long time since I have been here. My problem is: aftertake off I press the autopilot button and PNF activates autopilot,after that nothing works, the flaps button and the after takeoff check does not work and I fly the rest of the route without FS2Crew.Any thought on this?ThanksSkyhog
