PMDG General Forum

Hi PMDG,The plane looks great, but I don't have any gauges showing within the cockpit. In most instances this is do to the aircraft not being registered (Like FFS planes) ,however, I can't find anything that asks for registration.So do I need to uninstall and re-install the B1900D to get the gauges to show up?Best Regards,Ken Scott

If you can't afford the Reality XP Jetline 2 EFIS, there's a great freeware EADI. It's based on the Collins EFIS85 EADI, just like what's found on the real B1900D (the real one has the EFIS84) Filename is: collins_eadi.zip It's great, now if only there is a free capable EHSI?

Great aircraft!Using the SHIFT+E+2 command in the documentation to open the rear cargo door doesn't work.SHIFT+E opens the main exit, but adding the 2 doesn't open the rear door. Tried variations in timing on the keystrokes, but no luck.I'm using a MS Natural Multimedia USB keyboard.Any help appreciated.

This is an awsome aircraft. I think my favorite part of the aircraft is the exaust stains left on the Nacelles and under the wings. This reminds me of when I worked as a Ramp Rat and one of my jobs was to clean the King Air. Granted it was a 200 series, but still the exaust was a pain to try and remove.Anyway sorry for the rabbit trail. I am trying to add exuast to the engines by using the smoke function ("I" key), but when I do I only get smoke comming out of the left engine, even though I have two lines titled smoke 0 and smoke 1.Thank you for taking the time to assist me. The B1900D is an amazing aircraft to fly. Being a real world pilot, I love the physics you ha…

First off, great little gem you all put out...love the air file. Best air file I have ever seen for a prop.Two quesions, 1. Is there a way to silence to morse code type sound I hear when I have a VOR selected? I don't want to disable the nav sounds through the FS menu due to still needinn the IN/MM/OM sounds. 2. Is there somewhere on the panel that tells you what your pitch is set at? I observed the wheel moving but would like to know what it is set at?Many thanks.

I need some clarification. The flap schedule placard indicates max speeds for deployment. When I deploy flaps well under those stipulated speeds RED stills shows up on the speed tape. Say for example v-ref 130. Should I be at or very near that speed before I go to flaps 30? The aim of my question is really this: How should I interpret the red in the speed tape? Should I fly so as not to show any red at all?Thanks,John FranklinVictorville, CA

I think PMDG have set the benchmark.Weather they release a Fully fledged plane with an FMC and all the trimmings or just a visual model with a standard panel, they simply have the midas touch. I think Im going to an all PMDG fleet. I must admit I do like my Airbuses, but I may just savour that untill PMDG make one. Dont get me wrong I love the PSS stuff, but they wont seem to budge from what they currently offer which is amazing, but I cant help feeling im flying a boeing without Auto trim.On another note I hope PMDG dont release the new Ngs this month as I have spent and excceded my FS Budget this month :).Thank you PMDG you really are the Best.Jason

I read the posts about incorporating these gauges in the B1900D. I did the down loads, and installed everything. But when I tried to do an ILS approach there is no glide slope info! Have I missed something or am I reverting to the default gauges???

Hi again.I can't change my Nav 1, 2 Com, 1, 2 and the ADF. i can change my transponder though. Sounds strange to me. Any clues what it is and how i should solve it?

Sorry if this has already been asked, I did a quick search and came out empty.I'd like to do a repaint of the B1900D in the colors of my VA, and I was wondering if PMDG is planning to release a paint-kit, as it happened for the 737NG.Cheers,Pietro.

will pmdg paint the future B737-800 in Aserca scheme??http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/56690.jpg

Please can someone tell me if the Beech 1900D WILL work on Windows Me.ThanksAndrew Moore

Hey Robert and company:Any chance of an economy or usupported re-release of the 777 for those of us who might be getting an hour in the United full motion sims at the conference?Just a thought. Colin

This aircraft looks like an instant classic, and worthy of purchase.I have a question regarding the product installation/download. 25 Megs is just too big for my dial-up connection, even at night. I do have a location available with high speed access, and in some instances I've downloaded large packages, saved them onto my Jump Drive, then brought the packages home to install. But I am concerned about whether PMDG is among the few vendors that use I.P. addresses vs. machine codes to identify/verify software installs. Can anyone tell me whether this would be an issue? Regards,John

If you still ask yourselves about purchasing this pure jewel, just have a look....Thank you very much Roberto and the PMDG talentuous team.Greetings from JerusalemDavid

I bought the 737NG last week and I am very very pleased with the purchase. One thing, while inside the virtual passenger cabin, is the main entry door suppose to open? When in spot view, the main entry door is open(Control E), but not while in the cabin. I noticed the B1900 has an "interior" opening entry door.If the 737NG doesn't have this option, why does the B1900? Regards,Fausto

Hi!I wonder how to make that the PMDG 737NG start with "Cold and dark cockpit" and i also wonder how the get the Stairs out.Thanks,Patrik

Before everything I wanted to do you the compliments for the product

Hey guys! Im looking for remove the little ICON of Weather Radar XP set into the main panel view, Does any one clever know how to do it please with our 737 PMDG?? :-zhelp

I noticed earlier that the 2D side views do not stretch to cover the full width and height of the display. There is an edge along the bottom and right-hand side of the display which allows the underlying scenery to show through. Nothing in the BMP or the panel.cfg jumps out at me as being incorrect. A video card issue, perhaps? Running an ATI 9800XT.Jason Barlow

Hey I just got done flying online and noticed my FPS were rather low while online. I hadn't experienced this before especially after I installed my new graphics card. When I got offline, I was looking at my landing in the replay and my FPS went up by like 8 or so. Not sure what caused this but if anybody else has experienced then shout! Thanks.

Paul,I purchased the 1900D about eight hours ago and still haven't receivedthe email that directs me to the download link. Can you [email protected],steve

Hello,I've downloaded the 1900 3 times now, and all three times the zip file has been corrupt. So I installed download eccelerator, and it only downloads a HTML file about 600k then stops. Whats going on with this download? This is my first product from you, and I'm not to happy about it.See ya, Rockitglider

Installed the B1900, very nice aircraft. Only problem I have is that the 2D cockpit is a bit blurry, and the number on the instruments a bit difficult to read. Tried turning off system and FS2004 antialasing, but no luck. RUnning 1024 * 768 on a Radeon 9700 Pro.Who knows a way to improve the sharpness of the textures.BTW My Lago Twin Otter for example is crystal clear.DOK

Whats the deal with the navdata website? Whatever link I click on, it comes up with the same page. I cant get to the forum, downloads, contact, etc. Am I loosin it or what? or can someone show me a link for the AIRAC0313 Thanks in advance.Scott
