Need a Colgan/US Airways Express B1900D :D Any chance thats is the works?

Hi there,I'm from the Netherlands and have PMDG 737NG-600/700 for FS9.The plane is flying wonderful.But i have a problem with the FMC:When i use for example the Advanced Operations Tutorial V2 from Timothy M.Metzinger to learn more about the official procedures for flying the B737, i get involved in the next problem.I have to program the FMC for a flightroute from KTNT to KTNT, a round trip of South Florida, to learn using the FMC.When i put in KTNT on the RTE page and press on the LSK 1L i will get the message: Error at approaches, line 22.I push at CLR and go to the DEP/ARR page and use option DEP.Then i get the KTNT departures page. But there is nothing at all.No SIDS,…

a really great job from the team! Nothing of that quality since the 767 PIC. The Airbus are very poor, all of them till now.But: when i retract the flaps after take off, the Autopilot disengages. Have anyone any answer? (i am using Flaps on the F16Pro Joystick since 10 years without any such problem)Same problem when stabilized on the Glide before landing... you can imagine it becomes a sport to land the baby :-)philippe Strasbourg

Hi all,1.I was wondering if it is possible to create a flightplan withoutSIDS and STARS.I mean with the FMC from the runway to a VOR to Vor to destination runway.How to do this please.2.When using PMDG 737 with FSNavigator and hitting AP and Fly FLPL nothing happens.If I use default aircrafts than FSNavigator flies the flightplan.How can I solve this please.Thanks Guno.

I've looked around and can't seem to find these repaints. Does anyone know if they are available, or would one you great painters consider doing any of these?http://www.airliners.net/open.file/391720/L/http://www.airliners.net/open.file/487216/L/http://www.airliners.net/open.file/491207/L/The white USAF plane is pretty basic, but for whatever reason, I would like to see it painted.Thanks,MickeyKLAS

How about a -900 in a fictional Jetblue livery?? Now be easy guys,,it never hurts to ask.

PDMG Group:Are you going to paint Copa Airlines 737-800 winglets?Capt. Fabian Velarde

Hello,I was wondering with the 800/900 will a more functional clock be available to include a chronometer and elapsed time control?And will there be updated SIDS and STARS included?Cheers,Stephen

Hi guys!I just want to ask everybody what is your favorite livery for the 737-800.And which livery you find the most exciting beautiful?

Hi!I wanted to create the new procedures for LOWW and ran into the following problem:there are two fixes on a STAR, between them the MEA changes to 6000 ft. The fix where the MEA changes is defined by the distance toa VOR (DME in other words :-) ). The radial on which the fix lies is not indicated, is just lies on a direct line between the two other fixes.How can I put this MEA change into a STAR procedure (I'm talking about a text procedure file, NOT about the FMC itself....)?I'd be very thankful for a hint!regards,Joerg

Hello, i'm proud owner of the great b737ng. I've a problem with the loadmanager. That does not functional. I can not change the value, not in the zfw or pax or baggage. I cannot scroll an dchange the value. I have FS2004 and WindowsXP.Have any an idea?GreetingsManfred

HI I was wondering I use FSbuild and noticed it also builds flightplansfor the pmdg 737. How do i load them in to tne fmc? Thanks

Greetings Captains ...Thanks to Peter Dowson, my fuel planner utility is now fully accredited for use with unregistered copies of FSUIPC. This means that if you don't own a registered version of FSUIPC, you can now use the "Read Payload" and "Board Fuel" functions of my planner to automatically scan the passenger and cargo weights from your aircraft, and automatically load your required fuel into the tanks.Grab the latest version here:http://www.metacraft.com/737NGFP/PMDG also offerred to host the program in their download sections on their site, so you should soon be able to find it there as well.Thanks to everyone that made suggestions and helped me test the program. Th…

Hello PMDG!Short Question:Are the new features announced for the 800/900 going to be implemented for the 600/700 as well (ie will there be updated versions) or are they going to be on the 800/900 exclusively?(speaking of e.g.: the new 2D panel, FMC updates, higher perf. VC,...)Thanks & regards,Raffael

Hi All!I am considering purchasing a new Yoke and Pedals from CH as my old Logitech Wingman Force 3d joystick rendered itself unusable after 4 years of great flying. It now constantly shakes when plugged in, even without force feedback activated - aparently a problem many have had with these, lucky it lasted so long. Aparently force feedback is probably not trouble-free yet, and still needs a bit more development.Anywho, do any of you guys use the CH Yoke or Pedals (USB)? What do you think of them? Would you recommend them (primarily for flying the PMDG 737 & C152. Don't want to spend heaps on expensive ones)? Please don't turn this into a joystick vs yoke debate etc,…

Hi Captains,between day and night the size of the MCP are different. Anybody know why ?Thanks in advanceGerhard LOWW

I'd appreciate it if you guys painted up the only current UK registered -800 operator!http://www.airliners.net/open.file/540725/M/Brand spanking new, one for the Brits! ;-)-Paul

Hi all,Just a couple of questions I'd be greatful if you could answer:Firstly, does the 737NG come with a PMDG or a BBJ livery(CD version)? Would it be easy to create a BBJ livery using the facility with the package?Secondly, with regard to the latest NavData base (AIRAC 0403), once you've clicked on download on the NavData site, is that all that needs to be done I.E. are the files sent to the correct location, and if need be are the old ones deleted so you don't need to do anything else?Thanks for your help, much appreciated.Regards,Chris EGKK

Hi all,At the time I have purchased the PDMG but, because it wasn't compatible with Go-flight MCP module, I never used it. I have now configured (via FSUIPC) a GF-MCP and PR-48 in such a way that I have a complete EFIS-MCP combo + ProjMagenta screens which work well with the standard and freeware add-on B737's like FFX.From a former post here I have red that via this new FSUIPC one can also program the MCP for PMDG, but the MCP display will not work correctly. My question is now: is it possible to use the PMDG as a FS-compatible plane with respect to MCP? (because I don't need to use the panel) Or in which file of the aircraft is the MPC in PDMG programmed and can I repla…

Is anyone else finding that it is difficult to read the back up instruments? Is there anyway to increase their clarity?

Hi there!!Something I've always wondered about :1 - How do real 737 pilots check their control surfaces after engine start/during taxi because I don't see no indicators in the cockpit???2 - In cruise, do the LNAV makes 30

Hi EveryoneJust wanted to ask if the new 800/900 comes with a new soundset? Not that the old one isn't good but there is still space for new options! For example a better engine spin up sound during take off would be nice...Any comments, ideas, or anything else?ThanksMartin

hey guys,could anyone of the pmdg beta team post a screenshot with the 2D panel illumintated at night. Although we have already seen a night picture, but only with the MCP illuminated, it would great to see how it looks like when the whole panel is filled with light.I Hope you can share some screens with us. thank you.Greetings from TXLPatrick Haenssgen
