I just wnted to drop a note saying that I am very impressed with the B1900D. When I saw it was released, I went to your homepage to check out how much it was going to cost. I figured it would be $30-$40 like a lot of other add-ons are nowadays, and I didn't have any intention to but - I was just curious.I was pleasantly surprised to see the price around $15. I thought "I'll probably spend that much money on beer in the next half hour" so I jumped in and bought it. It looks great and I'm pretty happy with it. I think there is definitely a market for the under-$20 aircraft, and I think that there is a place for these quality models next to the higher end FMC-capable ai…

To start off, this is one heck of a plane! She flies great and looks beautiful. I love all of the liveries. Okay, lets get to the meat of my post. I worked at Cleveland-Hopkins International Airport, so I've seen hundreds of Continental Connection B1900Ds. I've also seen these puppies at other airports. Anyway, I would like to make suggestions on the lights. 1) There needs to be a white beacon on top of the tail instead of a nav light (To get the best effect, have a white nav light and white beacon together. It'll look like the pulsating beacon of the real deal) 2) Where's the forward-facing white recognition light on the each of the wingtips (http://www.airlin…

Love the Beech, PMDG, but for the life of me, I can't find the way to turn on the Virtual Cockpit. Looking forward to riding in a passenger seat via Active Camera. What did I do wrong? Stan

I was wondering why the cargo bin for-aft or aft-aft wasn't added to the weight and balance section in fs2004. By more adding more wieght under passengers doesn't give the 1900D appropriate balance. Also being able to change the passenger weights by the rows (only 9 so that should be easy).

Hi there. I have a small problem in the VC - both the altimeter and VSI appear to have the wrong dimensions. This happens on both Captain and F/O side.I've tried re-installing. Same problem. Any solution?Thanks,Mike F.

Hi !I bought the 1900 but never got the email with download LinkI send 6 mail to [email protected] but with no answer.please help me !!!SMALHEIRO

I bought the 1900 but never got the DL Link. I recently upgraded to DSL but am getting other E-Mail OK. It looks like a really cool plane and I'm anxious to fly [email protected]

The link for this livery is broken. This is the only one I have had a problem with. I reported it on the site and I am just backing it up on the forum.Andrew DeLaney

Hi!Asked the same question over in the VATSIM forum with very little response, so now I'll give it a try in here instead among all PMDG friends :-)I've just started to practise some online flying and it's very amazing and fun!! But...I have one problem and that is with the ServInfo gauge you can add to your panel to be able to see online ATC coverage and also change your radio and voice channels in a convenient way. The problem is that whenever I push the 'Tune' button I get a Windows error message in the background and when I ALT-TAB out to Windows the error message says "Could not open the selected file!" (see attached pic). Anyone else experienced this or does someone …

I just purchased the product but get a "Page not found" when I try to access from the link in the confirmation e-mail I received. PMDG....please help !! Craig Evans [email protected]

I just purchased the new B1900D and downloaded it. Download goes fine. However when I try to unpack the zip file, it turns out to be corrupted. I erased/downloaded it again and again the zip file remains corrupt.Winzip gives this error message:Extracting to "C:fs2004 planespdmg"Use Path: yes Overlay Files: noExtracting PMDG_EXPRESS_B1900D_V1_0.EXEbad CRC 88cfc39d (should be f15c13c1)Help would be appreciated.Regards,Floppie.

A few issues I have with the new PMDG B-1900 Express:When I take delivery of a new multi-million dollar aircraft I expect it to be clean...there is exhaust soot all over the wings of the PMDG livery.During the quick checkout flight I actually saw my framerate drop by 1 FPS! What are you thinking?? Fix it! :)Incredible job!! You have delivered the goods. Looks and flies extremely smooth and the sound is as equally smooth. Looks like I will be making some short/medium hops for awhile to enjoy this aircraft. Steve

I have had several instances recently of freezing while the zoom panel is displayed. FS9 does not freeze but just the aircraft panel. Upon selection of the Main panel all is working properly again.I am running SU3.Has anyone had similar experience, if so is there any explanation?Brian Corley,Cheltenham, England.

To any PMDG staff,I placed an order for the PMDG 1900D and when I got the e-mail for download instructions the e-mail said that I was authorized to download 2 1900Ds and 1 737NG. I only ordered the 1900D and I wnat to make sure that I wasn't charged for 2 1900Ds and a 737NG... Please help.Thanks JonathanOrder Confirmation # 82200451325 My e-mail is [email protected]. I only d/l'd the 1900D :-)

I just bought the 737NG and I'm having trouble starting the engines on it! I haven't gotten very far with it at all!When I start, I hit ctrl + shirt + f1 to stop the engine, and when i come to start the engines, I hit ctrl+e.Anyway, the engines do eventually start, but they take along time, and they sound as though they are trying to start, and eventually they do. Perhaps there is something extra I have to do?Can anyone help as I really like this aircraft.Gary

great plane and smart looking paintjobs, the question i must ask though is are they all real world; the 737s repaints intially where all real world, but later due to popular demand some fantasy (the airlines/schems where real, just they where not on this model of aircaft). Will the same actions be applyed to this plane?

Hi all,Purchased and downloaded the B1900D earlier today (WA time)and eagerly installed. The external visuals look superb.Only problem is that I don't have a VC view!!!. I am wondering if I got a corrupt download. My download ZIP file size is 24,938k. Strange that it seemed to install perfectly.Could anyone please offer a suggestion. I am really looking forward to taking this one for a flight.Thanks in advance,Chris Porter:-outtaPerthWestern AustraliaMy "Around the World 4" flight pagehttp://members.iinet.net.au/~portercbp/fly...e%20World_4.htm

Oopps, Double-tapped on the submit.Jonathan

I've always been a fan of aircraft that have lots of switches, complex procedures, etc, so I might have been reluctant to purchase the 1900 if it weren't for the fact that I knew it would be an amazing aircraft in terms of flight model, visual model, and sounds. So I bought a copy, installed it, and just finished my first flight.Just like the 737NG, this little bird is a dream to fly. Very stable and easy to control ... I greased my first landing.Now I just have to get over my guilty feeling for only paying 15 bucks for this baby. :)THANKS PMDG!!

Hello, Just bought and downloaded the B 1900, it's pretty cool.Anyway two other questions regarding other payware aircraft. I own only PMDG planes and I was wondering about two other planes I've been hearing about.The 727 Professional and the new SSW A310, if anyone who reads this own any or both of these, I would like to know if I should buy them and how each compares to PMDG's aircraft. Things I'm looking for are fully functional cockpits just like PMDG and accurate flight models. Thank YouJeff USAF

A kid who sees what he wants but cant get the candy he wants....uh huh that kid is me... the candy.... PMDG Express B1900Whats worse is that its ONLY $15... you can bet what I am going to be doing... lookin all over the house and car for lose change..... hmmm perhaps I can get a loan at the bank??? lolOk but this is what I want to know... is it as Real as the 737?I love twin props a heck of a lot more then jets....So all those out there that have it... from 1-5 what is it? 1 bein worst, bein best...anyway later

I will say one thing about this add on:Simply breathtaking.Nuff said.THANK YOU PMDG!Josh

I have tried to open the GPS using the GPS icon in the 2D panel and nothing appears.I looked in the panel cfg file and it looks like it is calling the correct gauge under window02.Please advise !!! Great plane BTWThanks

Well I got the B1900 and I think it's alot of fun. I have flown a couple of short flights and things are going great. It is very easy to fly and perfect aircraft to fly from the smaller airports to the hubs to "feed" the 737 with some passengers. I wasnt planning on buying this airplane but for $14.95 why not. So you gained at least one more customer by making the B1900 very affordable. I have enjoyed the 737NG and plan on flying the Beech all over also. You products are top notch glad you are developing for MSFS.Andrew [edit]PS the link for Midwest Connect is not working.
