Sirs,I'd like to direct you to the just released SGA A300. The animation of the reversers is pretty neat aswell as the truely dynamic wing flexing. Hopefully PMDG will keep up with these developments;http://www.flightsimnetwork.com/dcforum/DCForumID28/63.htmlRegards,Paul

Greetings,Forgive me if this is a dumb question, as I am a relative neophyte in the world of payware jetliners...My question is this - what is the difference between the 737-600/-700 and the 737-800/-900? I understand the number of and layout of seats is different between the four aircraft, but what about the flight dynamics, FMC, etc.?It seems as if there are many people waiting for the 737-800/-900 to come out, even more than are waiting for the 747. I just got the 737NG, so I am waiting for the 747, since it is an entirely different experience, with a much longer range, different flight dynamics, etc.Why are there so many people looking forward to the 737-800/-900? …

Isn't the Beech 1900D the Raytheon's most claim to fame when it comes to a profitable 19 seat turboprop......http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/63040.jpg

the reason I want to know is that I wondered if there is a full featured FMC as per the 737 (which is superb)the last - short range - aircraft I purchased, think it was by PSS only had lateral control in the FMC. Another companies also had the same idea.Is this with a FULL working FMC.PSDunno why I even ask with my naviagtion at times !Kind regardsNigel SmithAnd THANKS to PMDG for coming up with these superb products. The 737 MST BE the best for flight sim there is.

I just want to make sure I have got this right. After a flight plan has been generated in fsbuild and saved to the pmdg folder you need to convert it to rte format and then placed into pmdg file within fs. You can then load it into the fms using a string such as yssyymmlppis this correct????????

Wonderful ! Thank you so much for the Air France livery, you make my dreams become reality !MartialLFST

Hi everyone,Could anyone possibly provide me with some real-world 1900 procedures/checklists? In PDF format or something. I know not everything's simulated on PMDG's 1900, but I'd like to work my way through some real world procedures as much as possible anyways :) Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.Take care,Greg

Going of to the sun in the Beechcraft 1900

I looked all over the place, cant see a ser. no.I emailed support but havn't heard from them.Thanks for any feedback.regards

Hi friends,I just finished installing the RealityXP weather radar on the 737 and I thought it might interest you, if you are also the happy owners of both these fantastic addons.Here is what to do1) Put a copy of your RXPWX500.ini file in every PMDG737 folder under FS2004/aircrafts (600,700,winglets).................................................................2) Open FS2004AircraftPMDG737-700panelpanel file with notepad * under {Window Titles} add the following line: Window15=WX500 Weather Radar * under {Window01} // PMDG_MAIN_PANEL add the following line: gauge24=RealityXP_WX500!IC_RDR, 577,612,22,22 * just bellow Window 14, add these l…

Hello mates... When Im reaching the transition altitude (FL180 or FL060 in Europe) I should set the altimeter to 1013 mb or hp, but my question is... In the real life how is this procedure? :-8 A) Do I set 1013 mb and after press STD button? :( Or only I must press STD button, without change the altimeter? Thanks Pilots

Hi everybody I just bought the b1900D and when i received the confirmation mail with the download adress link, the link wasn't working... What i have to do to download my product please? Thank you by advance

Hi all,Having just bought the B1900 and being pleased with it, I start wondering how real B1900 pilots, or pilots in any other plane without FMC, navigate across airways. In FS you can always "cheat" by using something like FSNav ofcourse.I know how to work with VORs and stuff, but how to fly from one intersection to the other? Or don't flightplans for B1900s contain any airways and are they made up of just DCTs from VOR to VOR? Thanks!Robert-Jan OosterlooESA1121

Not to sound geeky or anything, but I used to run a RW Pilot Lounge, and miss the interaction.I'd like to facilitate other PMDG and sim pilots get to know each other in the same way, so if anyone is intersted in chatting once in a while and all getting to know each oter, add me to your MSN list, and say Hi. I'll arrnange chats once in a while and invite in anyone in the group who's online, or schedule certain times.Add me using [email protected], and let me know you're a PMDG/FS/RW pilot, and interested in getting to know others.Gavinhttp://www.interprom.com/gavhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/ng_driver.jpg

Hi, I'd like to create a metallic look livery like the astrojet... Would it be possible to get a metallic finished only texture for the 737-700?Thanks in advance, Luca

PMDG team,will you also release a paintkit for the B1900D?Please,say yes!!olivier sinnaeve:-luke

Hi all together!In the remarked section "India" of the PMDG-homepage there are hints to restore a flight en-route stating that the A/P will be in CMD-mode after the restoration of the flight. Have a look here please:java script:popUp('http://www.precisionmanuals.com/html/support/I.htm')After several tests (version 1.3 of 737-600/700) I cannot agree to that posting. No CMD-mode, no ALT hold and in fact no HDG SEL in SPD mode... The plane always comes up with no A/P active, diving int o the deep of the airspace and with no controlled steering.What's wrong here? Can anyone provide help here?Thanks in advance!BertFlightsimulatorclub FSC e.V.www.fsc-ev.de

I have head that in FS2004 there is a way that it can let you surf the internet... If so... Hw do you do it?Thanks

I would really like to see a good quality Embraer 120 Brasilia for FS. Would you guys consider this?

Here's a wacky problem.Random FS9 Internal speed failures are occuring with the B1900. Here's a description of the problem.inflight (Using FSNAV for navigation) everything is going well, when FS9's Internal speed goes to 0.0KTS. FSNAV loses all Speed Data, the airspeed indicator in the Beech goes to 0.Anyone aware if this MAY be a Beech problem, or possibly FSNavigator?A Re-install was performed, and this solved the problem short term, but after a 1 hour flight it came back.Thanks in advance, if you have any ideas.

First I would like to say that PMDG is the best addon for fs9 period, in IMHO.Using 737NG.I have all updates. i.e. 1.3, GDI+ and the latest IRAC 0130. I'm using C & H yoke + pedals USB. After making perfect landings and getting a message to exit the runway etc. I (notice?)...cohg, my rudder pedals go nuts. The plane wants to go to the right or left? when the pedals are in nuetral. When I taxi from gate to runway/takeoff the rudder works perfectly. I killed A/P, A/T, F/D and everything else exept the darn engines in the vain effort to correct the problem. Other than this particular problem the 737NG is perfect in every way.Running Win2k, no SP4, Athlon 2600/266, 512ram…

Howdy fellow PMDG addicts ...I've received an application key from Pete Dowson for my Fuel Planner utility, to allow the fuel load and payload read features to work for any pilot that is not using a registered version of FSUIPC.In order to test this, I'd love it if a couple pilots who have *not* registered FSUIPC could test the new version for me. So, if you use my fuel planner utility, but you do not have a registered version of FSUIPC (meaning the "Board Fuel" and "Read Payload" buttons don't work) and you have a minute, please drop me an email. I'll send you a copy of the accredited version which should enable the full functionality.If you have no clue what utility I'm…

Good Evening Captains,:-jumpyHas anybody noticed that Captain James "Tiberious" Kurk and First Science Officer Spock are the flight crew of the PMDG Beech 1900D!!!If only Lt. Savic was the Flight Attendent.. Heheheh:-ufo2Thank you PMDG for you products I am a fan since your inception in the the FLY! market.Here's to you PMDG :-beerchugPMDG you have made my day again. :-walksmileI can't not wait for the 737-800/900 and the QUEEEN of the Skies 747-400, and will buy instantaneously upon release.Live Long and Prosper.:-haloJimmyBob
