PMDG General Forum

hi PMDGwill your 747 have a working radar for weather?

Wow, what a complete package. A+ for value. When can I expect a small business jet? Gulfstream 5 or Learjet 45 in the makings? I'd love to see a smaller technical marvel like these done in this amount of detain. I can't wait to see the 747.Here is a list of what I have been able to find so far that could be improved upon:1) Not the product as much as the forum, get rid of all the less than relavent sticky topics. Anyone first coming to the forums (least I did) thinks they are very inactive when all they see is a first page with nothing but posts from May back.2) FMC doesn't reset when all power sources have been taken away, not sure if this is for realism or not, but it's…

HiHad the NG for about 3 days and love it! My problem is, however, that my autothrottle sometimes disconnects in cruise and I can't rearm it. I arm the A/T before takeoff, then switch to VNAV after I'm airborne. From here, it holds the plane at the specified 293 knots all the way up to cruise altitude. This is where it sometimes disconnects and I can't reconnect it. I get a flashing red light saying A/T first in the warning areaAny ideas?Danny

Hi to all of you simmers !I'm looking for a Air One (ADH) livery for the PMDG 737-800.Some one has any idea if it does exist ?Thanks a lot.

The Navy announced they have awarded Boeing the Multi-mission Maritime Aircraft contract using 737's to replace P-3 Orions. Any of you repainters out there want to do a Navy 737-800 NG?Here's the link to the Boeing MMA site:http://www.boeing.com/defense-space/military/mma/flash.htmlPeter HemmKTOA"The air takes me into its realm" - Beryl Markhamhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/800driver.jpghttp://jdtllc.com/images/RCsupporter.jpg

Hello to all BOEING flyers,Did someone know, where I can find the PRIVAT AIR livery for the BOEING 737-800 with Winglets, it flies for Lufthansa as a business-jet.MisterboeingHave a nice flight:-jumpy

Is it possible in the 744 update to implement realistic wing views when flying through cloud? i.e.- the wing becomes obscured from view,We are given wing views, yet no update has successfully acheived this important,imho,element.Thanks for the 737Ng and the future 744.Jason D.

Hi All,I have been unable to reach the PMDG site for several days now. All other sites I have bookmarked are working fine. When trying to reach PMDG with Explorer, I get the "cannot find server" message. If using Netscape I get the "operation timed out" error.Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, could you post a reply with what you did to correct the problem?Thanks,Larry

About the 747? Personally I can't wait to take one of those sleek silver Virgin 747s accross the pond :)

Hi!I don't know if you are working on items that follows but I have some things that must be corrected:1) elect hyd pump can supply hyd power for all surfaces with engines off (now is only possible to put out flaps with engines only)2) Stby pumps activates when flap override switch is on (alt flap) I don't remember exactly but it put slats directly into full ext. pos when flaps are not 03) flaps do not move unit per unit but in down position moves for the time you hold the switch, in up you can release switch and it will put full up the flaps.4) Fire module on p8 panel in vc is not interactive, if you can try to make a working fire warn module even in vc and put a bette…

Hi AllDoes the retail boxed CD 737 600/700 NG version come with one or two printed manuals. I purchased the boxed version and it onlyhas one printed manual for the FMC .thank you,Nige.

Hi,Sometimes when I fly FS will randomly minimize, after sleuthing around I relized that when it does, IEXPLORE pops up in the proccesses menu in the task manager, no browser appears just the proccess. With the add on of the 800/900 version it has gotten better but still does it sometimes. Has anyone seen this before?ThanxsAndras

I've just found an excellent website: http://rfinder.asalink.net/free/If you like to fly realistic FMC routes in your NG and (like me) you haven't got a copy of FSBuild, this website is great.Just enter departure (eg KJFK) and destination (eg EGLL) and in 2 seconds you get a detailed flightplan, plus a simplified version at the bottom of the to type straight into your FMC.Brilliant.James Stevensonhttp://www.virtualaviation.co.uk

Just got the B1900. No VC is present. I got to the VC view, can see the world but no planes except wings and props when I pan around. Installed seemed to go okay.I have FSNav, MyTraffic2004 installed also.

Hi !I've got a strange memory Problem in Fs2004.I wanted to fly a short Trip in the 737-800. The fps were fine.But when i began to roll they went down to at least 2.0 fps.I looked at my XP Taskmanager and saw that i had only 87MB RAM left of 512MB. the Fs used about 270 MB. What's wrong? Is there a way to fix it? I needed to restart FS and do everything again, this did not happen for the first time.Hope you can help.Marcello

Hey guys got a question for PMDG and then for you guys that build your own machines. I am moving bascially from a Asus A7n266e with an AMD 1800 + to a A7n8x-e with a 3200+ on it. All componets ( 1 gig PC2700 ram, TI4600 card and hard drives will stay the same.)1. PMDG, I have all my files backed up on CD and I am assuming that I would have to install the 600/700 and then the two service packs (I think that's what there was) and then onto the 800/900?? Or is there a easier way??2. For PMDG and you PC experts. I have built my last machine two years ago but I just started over from scratch and reinstalled everything. Can I just build this new machine but keep the data …

Hellonavdata and pmdg offer SID/STAR updates Do I have to install both? How to proceed correctly.G

I want to know if there any news about the Copa Airlines B737-800 Winglets?Can any of the PDMG team answer me?Thanks,Capt. Fabian Velarde Pang

Just purchased the NG...Anyway, per the instructions I go to Navdata.at and download the 767PIC/PMDG737 All-in-one installer. I can't find it anywhere!Help! I'm ready to fly!ThanksDanny

Anybody know why I cannot reach navdata website, on what should be the front page it says Security alert, and talk about security certificate. Can anyone explain what that means. Have we lost Navdata website?ThanksAndre69:-(

Hi there,Could somebody please tell me there default colour settings for there PFD, I changed mine around and wasn't expecting them to be saved!They are accessed from the PMDG menu/Styles/Colours... I'm looking for the R G B numbers.. Thanks to allWill Snuggs

Hi, I just posted in the file library a freeware combo gauge for FS9 that helps for pushback/taxi speed hold, and has repeaters for aircraft weights (gross, payload, fuel and zero fuel) along with some other stuff.The pushback feature does let you set speed and adds pilot controlled steering via rudder (this is just so I can back my 737 into a hangar tail first). You can also practice parallel parking. :)http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID...4gau&DLID=50153

When I set both Navs with the localizer freq. for an autoland, and then I switch it to app mode with the small knob I get a yellow text across the EFIS staing something like " EFIS/Nav Mode disagree"...Not the exact wording but close..Can anyone explain what that is to me? I have read about this some where in here but I cannot locate it.Thanks.Mike
