Hi all,Can anyone tell me if they are having this problem or how to solve it please?When tuning the ILS on PMDG's 737, it always gives the reciprocal runway if the frequencies are the same. For example, at KLAX the frequencies for 25L are the same as 7R, so if I am landing on 25L, and tune 111.70, (which is the same frequency for 7R) the ILS tunes to 7R. It happened at KSEA too. I wanted to land 6R, tune the ILS and it tuned into 24L. This is very annoying because it means I have to land with the wind (or not use the ILS). How can I get it to tune into the runway I want when the reciprocal shares the same frequency?ThanksRichard

I've just purchased the 737NG and have what must be a silly question. How to I access the cabin views? I've looked over the documentation and tried the various cockpit click points - to no avail. Where have I missed the instructions for this? Thanks for your help. It's a great simulation!

We just finished creation of a very realistic SID/STAR package for Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, The Netherlands. We asked a 737-driver to flip through its FMC pages and we tried to mimic that as close as possible in the PMDG FMC. The result is a very complete en detailed SID/STAR package. * All ILS approaches incorperated including all secundairy NDB/DME and VOR/DME approaches, using full patterns and teardrops. All approaches -can- be fully flown in VNAV if you want (nobody wants, but it can be done)* All nightly transitions RIVER-1A,1B, SUGOL-1A,1B en ARTIP-1A,1B en 1C. * Complete DISCO Free[tm] operation* On all approaches three transitions from the three IAFs (ARTIP, …

Hi guys, just to let you know that here's the link to a free B1900 POH, it has real FAA approved data and procedures taken from different operators' flight manuals.http://www.aerotraining.com/cgi-bin/produc...p=SOFT&distrib=Just go to page 86 of the .pdf document.Thought it might be helpful for you guys; I don't have the PMDG's B1900 so I don't know what documentation comes with it.Take care,Carlos.

Hi all,I need to download GDI+ to run the 737NG in Windows 98. I've downloaded it into my FS9 folder and unzipped it into there aswell, but I'm not entirelly sure what to do now, so I was wondering if anyone could tell me what to do as Im not great at doing this sort of thing.Thanks very much in advance,ChrisEGKK

Are there any good freeware in this area?What options are therefsbuild 2fscommander 7fnavigator 4??CheersP

I just recently purchased the 737 and need the file: 737tng Flight Tutorial which is referenced on the PMDG website in order to set up the aircraft.The AVSIM MISC download site where the file is located has been down for two days now due to a HDD problem and I am unable to download the file.Does anyone know where else I may be able to get these files so I can set up the PMD 737 ?Appreciate any responseThanks

Hi,I have a problem with PMDGOptions.dll. At the start of FS, I get an error message stating that PMDGOptions.dll could not be found.I just reinstalled my machine so I tried it on a fresh copy of Windows2000 (in French) and a fresh copy of FS2004.I had this problem before and it had been solved...I tried the following :installation of version 1.2 (the one I bought) + 1.3 update --> errorinstallation of version 1.2 alone (previous version removed with the tool remove.exe) --> ErrorInstallation of version 1.2 + French fix --> ErrorInstalltion of 1.2 + fs9.cfg deleted --> Error (it seems that this is what fixed it the first time...)Installation of version 1.2 +…

As I appreciate and respect the views of pmdg flyers,which weather addon is the best? I look forward to reading your opinionsrob

Can anyone tell me where in the USA I can order the CD version of the 737NG?? Aerosoft states that it will be available this Friday, March 19th on their website. It is a German website and I don't like the idea of using a credit card to purchase any software over the internet via Germany...Can anyone or PMDG direct me to a USA source for this CD version??Regards,Jack NoulletKGSP

Hi folks,Since Microsoft released the FS2004 SDKs a few weeks ago I was wondering if PMDG has any plans of updating the Beech 1900 to include raindrops in the virtual cockpit? I fly this aircraft almost exclusively in the VC and having the raindrops show would be a nice addition.Thanks,Nick

Yesterday I was flying from KMOB (my home airport) to KATL in the 737NG. I use AcitveSky 2004 with the latest MR. I also use Ultimate Traffic at 100%.Anywho, I had the AP on VORLOC and the plane was turning to line up. Then, one of the #$@%% AI planes decides to cut in front of me and about a half mile ahead. A few seconds later, I experience a series of severe turbulence and the AP is knocked offline.Anyway, I called in for a missed approach and had to do it again. BTW, the stupid ATC sent me on a heading and never called me back. I had to re-file my IFR plan to get ATC to acknowledge my existence.But I digress.The question is, is Wake Turbulence that bad in real l…

hi all;A while back there was a thread going here (which I have searched, found and re-read) regarding sound for the beautiful PMDG Beech 1900D.Has anything more been done on this issue? Has someone created a new sound file, posted it here and I missed it?I usually visit this forum at least once a day but even then things get past me.Thanks,DonaldS

Hi to all. I am one major fan of the 737NG aircrafts and I really enjoy flying them. However, I do get really annoyed by the sound made from the battery and recirc fan.So my question is simple: How can you stop it? Which is the relative sound file that I can rename so as the sounds are not heard in the cockpit?Thanks for your helpMarinos

Hello!I would like to buy wonderful Beech 1900, but only if I could get this livery, because Hahn Air serves Salzburg, my home town.Could you please do it for me - would be great!Thanks in advance,Chrissy

Could the PMDG maintenance person please clean my left windshield in the 2d panel view? There is an annoying speck of dirt there:)Thanks

I am curious if it is just my system or whether others are having refresh rate problems with their Beech 1900 in the 3D cockpit mode. While the outside scenery and framerates are fine, the gauges inside are slow to respond and stutter.Included in my system are the following system:Asus KT400 MotherboardAthlon 2800XP (2250) 333mhz bus1Gb 400mhz SDRAMNvidia 4200 128Mb with latest drivers Thanks,Robbie

Any chance when you have time of a few more liveries.Perhaps something from Ireland and the U.K. and Skyward ( a manitoba outfit )Thanks for your consideration.Dave

Hey everbody,I just had a small question which I could not find searching back in the forum. When/how will BBJ version be produced? Will this be with the -800/-900 or after (as separate product)? Or even after the 744? And will it include the BBJ1 and/or the BBJ2?-Note I am not asking when it will be out just how it will be produce.Thanks a lot,Regards Norman
