I was in a Vatsim controlled flight, when I went to change the NAV radio to the ILS.NONE of the radio knobs worked! I couldn't switch any of the NAV or COMM radio numbers at all. Transponder worked fine.Has anyonme else come across this?Gavinhttp://www.interprom.com/gavhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/ng_driver.jpg

Hello,I just downloaded the Sid/Star for EHAM as I was flying from Copenhagen to EHAM I was vectored to RWY-19R I then wanted to set it up in the FMC and found that RWY-19R or any RWY-19 was not among the options. My question is this not supposed to be there or is it missing every other RWY seems to be there.The Sid/Star I downloaded came form the NavData website.Thanks:-hmmm

Hello friendsHere is a question and thankyou for any help.I am interested in flying using vatsim, but I am not sure if its possible to fly the 737ng and use vatsim without a headset which I don't have. Is this possible????? I don't want to go to the trouble of setting up vatsim if its all to difficultregards Rob

I just bought the 737 Aand was not able to download, please kindly inform what to do in order to complete the process, thanks,Jacobo

I know it's a pain to post screens, but is there anything else you guys can show us?...popping another Xanax....Thanks,Chris

Hi folks,I'm using the NG in FS9 and one thing i've noticed is that the aircraft has a very sluggish roll response, if I deflect the joystick fully left or right the ailerons hardly move at all. What should be the typical roll time from 0 to 30 degree bank?I've increased the joystick sensitivity and all that stuff but I don't think it had any effect.Cheers for any help,Tony

HiI've finally bit the bullet and installed fs2004 without too much grief. However, after installing the NG, all of my approach plates in the vc are now blurred as per the attachment. Has anyone got any ideas what could be causing this ?ThanksGaryhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/68369.jpg

Hello wonderful and awesome PMDG TEAM! Please I would like listen always in my next 737-800/900 cockpit the real trim sound. Is it possible?! Im sure! thankS and continue posting about Realease 2!!! :-laugh1

dear all,Just got a radeon 9800 pro 128mb after years of ti4200. Completed a full format and reinstall of windows.However, my textures on the panel are blurred. What settings do I need to change?I have tried all of the setting fro filtering and AA, not using fs9, using ATI. I have the latest catalyst drivers, 4.3 I think.Any help would be appreciated.ThanksAndrew

I'm aware that PMDG have stated that the 800/900 737 upgrade will be exclusivly for FS9. Does this mean that the add-on will NOT be compatible with FS2002, or that some aspects may not work with 2002, for which support will not be provided.I used FS9 for quite a while, before becoming frustrated with low frame rates and choppy play. I went back to FS2002, and can have high detailed add-on scenery, with all the sliders at max, and get good frame rates with smooth play.I'm just wondering if the 800/900 will be 100% incompatible with 2002, or just certain parts. The VC was mentioned, but I don't fly with the VC anyway, so that wouldn't affect me.Would it be possible for PMDG…

Hello,The upcoming 800/900 looks superb. I have a question about the save panel config option. I understand it has already been stated that this feature may not be available until the B744 that PMDG are working on. However would it be possible to have switches like the fuel pumps, pitot, window heat and lights set default to off when you load the panel? Because right now I load the aircraft and manually turn all these items off before engine start so I can follow the checklists and be more realistic.Also will there be a revised batch of SIDS and STARS to accompany this release?Thanks and I look forward to the release date.Regards,Stephen.

Now that the 8/900 will use 'offsets' in the FMC, when would you use this feature and why? When do they use it in the real world? The only reason I can think is beacuse of traffic and ATC tell you to. Thanks.

Hi Guys !!! I have had a strange problem with my 737. I set everything ok then i took off at 1500 ft i activated the autopilot and lvl chg function to reach my altitude. The plane instead of climbing started to descend. So i tried to click on V7S but it disconnnected. After trying it a lot of time i got thedecision to disinstalla ll fs9. I have installed everything again my 737 and i tried the flight but i had the same problem. The autopilot is engaded but i amnot abe to reach the altitude selected. What can be the problem? Thank You Alfredo

I'm using the 737-700 NG and when I load a flight plan for Boston I receive an error message on the scratch pad and in the flight plan there are no runnways listed either departure or arrival.

Hello to all,i have problems with the SIDS/STARS, i have downloaded the database 0402 of pmdg`s official site and extracted them to the SID/STAR foulder of fs9. Then i started the fs9 with pmdg`s B737-600, next step was that i entered into the POS-page of the FMC the AIRPORT, result was a ERROR code "err at TRK, line 102" whats that??The airport LSZH and LSGG runs but all other airports not, why??Is there something wrong with this database?? here it is.Please help me ;( // EDDM - MUNCHEN// Copyrighted 2/20/2004 by Terry Yingling// Derived from DAFIF cycle 0402 from NIMAFIXESFIX ANDEC LATLON N 47 53.2 E 11 20.067FIX ANKER LATLON N 48 34.35 E 12 .133FIX BEGEN …

Hello to the pmdg developer,one question, will the new 737s 800/900 have the full IRS alignment like PIC

Will the 800/900 product change anything in the 600/700 plane? Are the upgrade in the panel of the 800/900 (new FMC, etc) available in the 600/700? Just wondering.Thankssg(Scott Gridley)

Greetings,Regarding the upcoming release and the 14 day limit for discounted purchase - Will a customer be able to make a purchase only on one computer and then at a later date download from a second computer and install to that second computer ? I am in the middle of a relocation right now and very likely may be without my home PC for a while. I would be able to purchase from my work connection, but, may not have the home PC up for several weeks. Other than email there is no way to transfer info from one to the other (work units are diskless workstations).Thanks in advance. Also, glad to see the work put in to the night lighting!Joe LorencVice President, Carolina Ope…

First I want to say that I really enjoy the 737. I don't have the Beech as I'm more a big bird flyer.But there's one thing that really gets on my nerves. When I'm flying with the autopilot set and I switch to external view and use the coolie hat on the joystick (a MS Sidewinder Force Feedback) to move the viewpoint, the autopilot disengages.I know the reason and that it's realistic, but, please, could you guys from PMDG make this an option in the PMDG setting that can be turned off?I would really appreciate it.CheersThomas

hello to all,i have problems with the SIDS/STARS, when i select a SID, the FMC wrotes a ERROR code like "ERROR at line 136" i have downloaded the SID/STAR database from PMDG page. I readed that someone else had the problem, and I want to know if he solved the the problem with the reinstallation, are there any other ways to fix this problem??please helpMR. Boeing
