Hi guys!From the beginning of the 737 you said that there wpuld be 3 products. The main. The 737-8/900 and the 737-BBJ.Can we expect a 737-BBJ with new cockpit-gauges. I mean.. There's a lot missing in the cockpit. For example the IRS-system.Can I look forwards to a Boeing 737-BBJ?

Have a crack at producing a 7E7? lolSTEVE

hi there,just wondering is there a way that you can change the fs2004 ATC to selcted the correct gates to the airline that you are flying @ the time? i was flying QF to BNE from CNS and the ATC in BNE did not give the the correct gate and it was like gate 46 which is the Virgin Blue side. can some help me please.steele

What is a normal CG for a 737-800 fully loaded? I run with about a 131klbs. ZFW and get a CG around 27.5%, was just wondering if that's normal for it to be so far forward, or should I shift most of my cargo further back.

Just wondering how much of a commercial success it has been so far?

After some pretty good looking repaints from Dan and some others I thought it was time to try one myself. I think I didn't saw this livery go by yet.I hope you like the result. Still looking for some details on the engines though. greetings,Ruud

Your advice please--having programed the FMC and activated the VNAV and LNAV switches; after a short while the VNAV cuts out, especially when it nears a waypoint change of direction. ALSO I frequently crash on take off the aircraft tilting to the right at an acute angle and unrecoverable. I feel that this is something to do with TRIM. If so,how do you adjust it and to what degree? Thanks Marty

There was a thread before addressing adding a small pushback gauge to the radio stack.It worked OK with the old version of the radio stack, however due to changes in the layout of this panel old position reference coordinates no longer bring the little thing visible.The old intro into the panel cfg file was://--------------------------------------------------------[Window08] // PMDG_RADIO_STACK_PANELfile=737NG_RADIO_BACKGROUND.bmp file_1024=737NG_RADIO_BACKGROUND.bmp size_mm=625,600position=8visible=0Background_color=0,0,0 ident=27gauge00=PMDG_737NG_Main!RadioStack, 0, 0, 625, 600gauge01=rcb_groundhandling!XMLSoundSwitch, 510, 431, 40, 26gauge04=rcb_groundhandling!Pushba…

Hi,I

Morning Captains,Looking for a printable Yoke Checklist for the 737. I remember there was a Checklist from PMDG but I cant find the file.Thanks for Information.Stefan

Hi Guys,Initially had this issue on takeoff at V1 and your temp fix corrected it (thanks !). Smooth sailing for a few weeks after that but now I am experiencing uncommanded engine failure in flight, on initial descent and even on finals. Accomplished repeated in-flight relights only to experience failures less than a minute later.I know your soon-to-be-released official update should fix this issue but is there another fix in the meantime?Reason is I have a window of one or two days every 3 weeks to do some serious flying (my job has me traveling too much !) and with the above, its really a bummer not being able to complete the flight.Eagerly await the "Queen of the Skies…

I am currently in the middle of a flight from KJFK to KTPA. My fuel calculations required that I have full wing tanks and about 3000lbs in the centre tank.On leaving JFK I had all fuel pump switches on and the crossfeed switch off.Passing through about 29000' the centre tank drained and both engines cut out. I was able to recover and continue the journey.Can somebode please advise the procedure to use when the centre tank drains and the fuel should now draw from the wing tanks.BTW. Thanks PMDG for the service pack.RegardsRussell Jourdain (NZL007/ZK-RHJ)

I have just uploaded the 737-800 with and without winglets in the United Airlines new colors.EnjoyThomashttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/85294.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/85295.jpg

This video card really seems good in all ways for Tiger Woods 2004, and for FS, my two PC haunts. But when I load up the 737NG, performance seems like a much bigger hit than how the 737NG affected perf with my old 9700 Pro. I'm sure there are very few folks with this card yet. I'm not sure why, because image quality and perf and super in all areas except . . . my favorite bird :((. It seems to me my 9700 ran this aircraft as good or better. Anyone have any insight?Noel

The PFD looks totally with the 600/700 before the 1.03 update than after. Is there any way where I can change it back to where the attitude indicator is in the middle with the other flight information on bars around it like normal, instead of four different gauges inside the display?

I am interested in getting opinions on what is the best or recommended flight planner for the subject aircraft. There are quite a few programs to purchase or download as freeware.The planner will be used in conjunction with the PMDG 737-600 FMC.Thanks in advance for your help regarding this question.RegardsEd McComb

Hey John I was just wondering if that royal air maroc is released or are you guys still working on it. Sorry if i am been a pain, but i am only asking for its progrees hoping that the project has not been forgotten.Thank You Best Regards

Captains-I am happy to tell you that we have just made the 737-800/900 PaintKits available via the download center.Also- with this release, I feel compelled to issue an apology: These kits were supposed to be released on 04MAY04.... But as a result of a minor error on my part, they were never activated in the download center....So, I have updated the releases and made them available for you as of today...Is this the right time to mumble something about "better late than never?"Have fun with the painkits...

HiI have installed PMDG 600/700 and then updating to 800/900 on a secont computer to extend my Wideview installation.After selecting the airctaft PMDG 800 in the FS2004 I get this error message:Error initializing Direct Sound. Application will now exit.What did I wrong?Directx 9.X is installed.Peter

Hello there, Have no idea whether your interested in this kind of information. I just build a nice cockpit setup and want to share this with the FS community.I use the PDMG Beech 1900D(look at the site) and real working instruments.I kindly invite you to visit my website explaining in detail how I build this thing.http://users.telenet.be/theportablecockpitI Enclose a picture to tease your curiosity and hope to find a way, through your website, to inform the FS community.kind regardsMark VerschaerenBelgiumhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/85391.txt

Hi guys. First off let me tell you what an incredible piece of aircraft you have developed. The 737-700 is amazing. It has become the only jet I fly due to its "real" experience. Hat's off to you all!My question, I purchased the 737-900 last night, received the confirmation for my order, but yet have received the download link. Last time I got it in 5 minutes. Please check into this. I would appreciate it. I have checked my spam folder and it is not there. My email address is [email protected] THANK YOU VERY MUCH!Dave

I assume that PMDG Options Module Version 1.03 (Service Update 3) dated 14 Jan 2004 ....found under PMDG /(About).. is the same as (Service Update 1.3) ...Is this a correct assumption? If so, why wasn't it listed as Module Version 1.3 instead of 1.03 in the very beginning?Regards,Jack

Hi guysIs that a bug?Anyone else had that or i did some mistake but for me looks very strange!!Look the FMC!!!I selected flaps 30 and it gave me that speed(248KT)!Am i did something wrong?And also in VNAV mode the autothrottle speed was changeing up to 290KT below 10000FT and was jumping up and down between 290-250KT!Now thats strange as well!Was my plane going crazy today?Ofcourse it was the first time to fly that style of cockpit!!!

I seem to be getting the hang of the FMC, except when I want to delete something that has a Disco in it. This usually happens when I load an arrival runway and select an arrival procedure that the FMC doesn't like. Then it seems like Poltergiest, and I can't delete it or anything after it no matter what I do. For instance, I flew into an airport today and wanted to fly back out of the same airport, but didn't want to restart FS9. I tried to Intialize the FMC, but it not let me delete anything that was after the Disco, or missed approach info, no matter what I did. Is there not one button that can be pressed to start over again with the FMC. I cannot seem to find anyt…
