PMDG General Forum

PMDG Team,Wow! I'm amazed at this little gem. It flies superbly and has great FPS. You've done a great job adding a commuter to the short to medium haul (even long haul to some degree) line of aircraft. I've downloaded several liveries already and all has gone extremely smooth. I've flown for about 30 minutes without any problems, using various views (including the VC). Great job there too! This'll be fun for a long time to come. This one may out-sell your 737NG series.Thanks again for your great products.Ken Fortin

They flicker there and not, from standard zoom (hitting backspace), and hitting "+" once. When I hit "+" 2x it is so close and there just not there, this is in flight!

OMG! The long awaited post... Thanks God!! :DSo exited! Looks very good.Bruno Francescoli.

I had a quick search of the forums for a similar problem.I fill out my FMC completely, line up, auto throttle and FD on,flaps set to 5, RTO set, release brakes, power on, hit TOGA.The NG rolls on to V1, gets to Vr then all of a sudden........she goes into RTO mode and starts decelerating?????Running SU2 (u10.4), FS9, XP home.

A bit of a daft question really. I think the plane is fantastic and I've been flying everywhere in it using FS2004. However, I purchased the basic version of FS2002 (not the professional version). This as you know, doesn't have the Beech aircraft! I want to use the aircraft in FS2002. Any suggestions?RegardsBarrie

Hi team,I can't locate the parking brakes lever in the VC...Any help?Thanks! :-) David

HiI have done a rebuild of my Pc and re-installed everything because i bought a Radeon 9800XT, Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe M/B and Athlon XP 3000+ 333FSB CPU to replace my Ti4600 and other old components, BUT i am a bit dissapointed with it's performance.......I have all the cloud fixes installed from Chris Williams, I have the PanelAsTexture=0, renamed Autogen.xml, run at 2xFSAA and 8XAF etc etc ......and most sliders arn't even open fully,...now ....FPS are not what i expected for this supposedly HIGH END Card ( I get about 9-14fps )with more than two layers of cloud, i also experience quite alot of stutters especially when i taxi and make turns on the ground. I don't know if m…

Hi Guys,I like to have my aircraft self-contained for easy archiving and therefore put the gauges in the panel folder. This has worked for everything except the 1900. I don't have the lighting or autopilot switches on the panel, but they are in the folder. Is this not possible to do?Also, I'd like to say when I first saw screenshots of this I thought it was very nice, but dismissed it at the thought of the price. When I found it was going for $15, I couldn't get here fast enough. I am very happy with the product. The visual model and vc are stunning. Combine that with the fact that you don't need a Phd to fly it, I'll certainly be back for more. Todd

Sup Randy please contact me at the following address [email protected] thanks sir.

Hi PMDG devs & fans, To PMDG, -In the future- are you planning to provide a full panel with custom gauges and full systems simulation for your B1900? I'm asking this because I think there are simmers among us that would like to see a panel in your B1900 with similar functionality as in your B737's.Now to the PMDG fans, would you pay for an add-on panel for the B1900 made by PMDG, with all the features and whistles we are used to see in PMDG's main products including comprehensive and extensive manuals? I for sure would.Regards,Carlos.

It's my impression too. The B1900D has a really nice exterior but the 2D panel is not of PMDG standard. It's not much more than another King Air panel with some justification. And the Garmin GPS 500 is rarely to be found on a B1900D panel. From that point of view I'm not sure if it's worth the money. It also seems that the airplane is too easy to handle at all. I'm not a real life pilot, so I may be wrong in this case, but I think, the flight dynamics are not very well modelled too.Maybe we can expect some improvements in the future.Nevertheless, the B737 is the best aircraft in my hangar.Regards, Tom.

Dear PMDG team,first I have to say that I'm very satisfied with your 737NG. I really like its complexity and much enjoy the flights with it. However, I think I have discovered two small issues during takeoff and it would be great if they could be repaired in a future patch or the 800/900 upgrade. I looked for related topics on this forum but couldn't find anything. I have the latest patch (version 1.3) installed and I'm using FS9.The first thing are the flap minimum maneuvering-speed (FMMS) bugs. For takeoff I select Flaps 15, turn on the FDs, arm the autothrottle and press TO/GO. Reaching the flap retraction height all FMMS bugs (15, 10, 5, 2, 1) are there and when selec…

Guys, I've got to say it again. The 737NG has brought me so much enjoyment since the day it came out you just wouldn't believe. I fly this thing at least an hour almost everyday. The amazing thing is that I find something else to say "WOW" about almost everytime.I bought the 1900 the day it was released and am enjoying it also. Ya'll got me hooked on all the "bells and whistles" of the NG so I still fly it most of the time:)Didn't post this for anything in particular except to say thanks again for a great product, and great support from a great bunch of guys. I'll be buying everything you put out in the future.

Yesterday before taking off from YYZ for PIE (passenger), I visited Aviation World in Toronto, and purchased the World Air Routes cockpit video "GOL - 737-700/800".http://www.worldairroutes.com/GOL.htmlhttp://www.worldairroutes.com/images/GOL_Cover_x250.jpgIt's a GREAT view into the cockpit and procedures in the 737-700, with many takeoffs, approaches, communications and incredible views of Brazil from the air.I reccomend it to any PMDG pilot who wants to see what we've learned in the sim put into practice in real life.Gavinhttp://www.interprom.com/gavhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/ng_driver.jpg

Bonjour,I am trying to understand how it goes on in the cockpit, and I would like to know during the after takeoff /approach procedure when the PF makes CALL for retracting/extending the flaps, who set the MCP speed , is it the PF (Who flies the aircraft following the FD bar) or is it the PNF job.Also during ATC request (Change level, reduce speed, heading) who manage the knobs.Who push APP button ?after takeoff it seems that PF calls for pushing LNAV VNAV etc .... Best regards.Claude Troncy

Hi, i've this problem...The FMC says that the navdata is invalid, I've installed the latest available at PMDG site, in PMDGSidStars folder...What I'm doing wrong?Thanks

Hi allwill I benefit from buying and installing the Reality XP instruments in the B1900 in other ways than just been able to read the instrumnets more easily?I mean - will I get a better autopilot than the standard MS?Will I be able to read both VOR 1 and VOR 2 at the same time in the main display (regarding distance/DME to the VOR)?And will I at all benefit in any other ways that I havent been asking for here?cheers, walle

How can purchase these lovely birds, Can someone please help me, and no matter what I do I cannot log to your site, please help, Page refresh does not work!Buzzed

I notice on some posters screenshots that the frame rate etc. is displayed in red in the upper lest corner of the screen. I think I remmember seeing that on one of my machines a long time ago, must have been an accident? How do you show it?I put a new rig together. An Athlon64-3400+ on the MSI K8T Neo fsr-2 with 1Gig Corsair TwinX LLP memmory. A Maxtor 40 Gig ATA-133 HD for now. Allso a Saphire Radeon 9800 Pro.After installing Win2k I got on MS Update and got all the updates except Media Player 9. MS for some reason was dog slow, so I figured I would grab it later. I installed fs9 and tried to reinstall 737-NG, no go. I started FS9 and I allmost puked all over my monitor,…

Any ideas how to change the approach chart on the clipboard in the VC to one of your own choice. I can't find the instructions how to do it in the manuals?

I just purchased your Beech & when I go to the download link in my e-mail I get "The page cannot be found." What a letdown! I sent a query to support & havn't heard back. What should I do?

hello folks out there im having a problem closing cargo doors, i got rear door to open but i cannot get it to close i have tried every combo i can think of shift+e+2, went to settings and change the key combo , there has got to be an easier way....thanks......robert

Yes, I read the manual. How can I set the minutes on the clock?I can change the hour numbers, but not the minutes. My aircraft is 20 minutes slow.Thanks guys.Bill Taylor
