I have a problem, I get a error when I type in my posission (KBOS) and I recive a message like this "Err at 3, line 104".I dont have a clue what to do to get rid of this?Regards,Johan

Since downloading and installing 1.3 my 737 is not acting the same.Textures seem to load slower especially the American at night and the fde seem to be more quirky.I cannot invoke the reverse thrusters they seem to want to go but fall back to normal idle.Is there a different approach to this since 1.3 I usually use F2 to invoke.Also I tried to make a left bank from 325 to 195 out of KBOS 33L and I had to give the joystick full left to get a very slight bank angle the OAT was about -10 do I need to turn on the wing anti-ice ???VNAV was the only thing turned on during the turn.And aonther thing that is strange is that after I started both engines I could only throttle up on…

"The following changes were made for Version 1.3:- DIRECT keyword now ignored in procedures"Is it possible to make this SID/STAR keyword/command work instead of ignore it? After passing an overfly waypoint I would like the bird to continue direct to the next waypoint. As it is now the bird intercepts the track between the overfly wpt and next wpt and that results in unwanted turns.Kind regards,Hakan

Just landed at EGLL at dusk (5.0pm GMT) after installing the latest SU1.3Why, at dusk and dawn do the landing or taxi lights still not work!Also when setting the Altimeter knob to STD, if I have not manually set to 29.92 the altitude readouts during communications read incorrectly. eg if I'm at 31000 I may report 31400 depending on what the bp was before STD. Surely the centre knob should do this automatically.Alan

Just wanted to drop you guys at PMDG a line and say thanks for this wonderful aircraft! Up until a little while ago, I was an avid Dreamfleet 737 flier because of the extreme realism it offered. While waiting for their update, I had to have something as realistic as theirs was so I picked up your NG model. I am very satisfied so far! The realism is there and the FMC is especially wonderful as well! My only problem is that its SO detailed my FPS drop sometimes but oh well it's worth it! Besides I can do without the virtual cabin and cockpit! Again thank you for a great product and I look forward to seeing your future work! :-walksmile

The recent service update seems to have corrected the rudder issue when on final approach. Now the aircraft can be enjoyed by a "novice pilot" like I am. However, I am still losing the glide slope on an ILS approach. Everything seems fine, with the aircraft descending on the gs - then all of a sudden the nose pitches upwards, and I am forced to disable the AP and land manually.What am I doing wrong here??Thank you for your help.

hi,I'm wondering if the 800/900 will include a HUD? (as some airlines have their 737s equiped with huds)Andrew

Hi, folks-I've run into a strange problem that I need your help with. I've done a search in the support forum and didn't see anything like this, so maybe it's particular to me?I used SU1 normally without any problems that weren't well known. Since updating to SU2, however, both of my engines shut off randomly, sometimes a few seconds into taxi, and sometimes several times during taxi. They have not shut off in flight yet. What's particularly strange about this is that at the same time as the engines shut off, my flaps retract two slots. If they were at 5, they retract to 1. If they were at 1, they retract fully. This happens every time the engines shut off at exact…

If not, is there a good way to get this? I had a pretty decent fly from KSBA to KSAN, and when I got there, despite pretty foggy approach, I didn't have the ILS. Alas, the map mode was adequate to get in the ball park.Noel

PMDG is nominated for two VFlight Awards- "best support" and "best airliner". If you would like us to receive that golden 747 award (will look good next to our upcoming 747 add-on ;)), visit this page - http://www.vflight.org/aw2003 and vote for PMDG!Thanks for your support!Sincerely,

You know the pink line in the second display from the left, the one you plane is supposed to follow. Also, you can see how far away you are from the course (XTK, second page of PROG button on FMC).Well, sometimes it follows the line perfect, and other times it will not stay on it very well, like the flight I am on right now, it is like 2miles off the line. These are the WP1 direct routes, and there is only 200-300 miles between them!

I have tried twice to go through Fred Clausen's SU2 tutorial. Everything goes well until I start my descent. Problem 1.I enter the 200/5000 constraint for PAPPI. After I enter DES NOW I start a 1000 ft/min descent but it never starts a descent with the "optimum profile". The result is that I am at FL200 when I get to KORD. Is there a step that is missing from the tutorial or that I am over looking? Problem 2. I disable the autopilot and descend manually to get around problem 1. I follow all the directions to intercept the ILS. At about 100 feet AGL I am obviously short of the runway and the autopilot decides that it does not want to land and begins a left turn and…

hii have been flying online with VATSIM using PMDG 737-700 (Ver 1.3) and noticed that my airspeed tape starts going crazy (up and down to very unusual speeds from 50-450 nts creating ac turbulance) only during winds direction or speed changeam i doing something wrong or missing somethinganyones help would be appreciatedthanksBo

PMDG Gentlemen, I am quite impressed by the support shown in this forum concerning the 737NG! The customer owners "OVERWHELMING POSITIVE FEEDBACK" I am reading (IMO very important!) concerning this product coupled with your caring and profesional attitude has convinced me-I WANT THIS PRODUCT! To make a long story short I,m on an extremely slow dial-up (AT BEST 2.9K P/S)! Can I download with a resumable utility like Getright? I could never even hope to complete a 69 Meg download without a disconnection!(I did do a search and could not find a thread asking this)! Thanks for any input! Jukebox P.S.I wonder if …

Hello all, first I would like to say that I love flying the PMDG 737 it is one of the best aircraft that I have had the pleasure of flying in MSFS! My question to all of you is I was wondering if anyone else has experienced a problem with the Horizontal trim, in the first version the motion was smooth as silk, but in the lastest version I get a very erractic movement and it is annoying. I can still set trim okay but the movement while watching just jumps up and down. (and I'm not talking about elevator trim but the horizontal trim) Anyways I would like to hear if anyone has this problem and if they do, do you know a remedy. Rich Hall

How do you open the stairs with planes that are equipped with them ?Is there alos a key combo for opening the cargo holds???ThanksAndy

hi all. after i downloaded the new service update yesterday, i tried to install it. but for some reason, the install-progress won't start. i doubleclick, but nothing happens. the same occures with the installation-file for the 737-700 "hamburg international" livery. i had no problems with other liveries. i'm using winXP and FS2002.any clues?thanks,stu

Thanks again in advance.Here's what I'm doing:Entering dep and arrival airports after the init page has the gross weight, flight # etc.Entering a dep rwy, then arriv rwy. At this time these are showing up on the MAP view.After finding the Arrival Ref page, I see nothing in there as to ILS freq, rwy length and elevation as the manual shows.Am I supposed to be downloading a Navdata update or something? This was on KSEA's rwy 16L for example.Thanks,Noel

Hello! First of all, great job with the 737NG PDMG, could not have done it better myself:-lol But I have a small problem when I select APP panel, what happens is that the FMS/Overhead/Throttle and radio anpel disappear "behind" the app panel, forcing me to go to full panel if I would like to adjust anything.....Is there a way to fix this so the other panels appear "above" the App panel?Best regards Kai:-newbie

Hi all, I have just intalled the PMDG on FS2002 with the updates and have found everytime I engage the auto throttle it keeps disengaging itself for some reason. I know in doing everthing right as I have had it for quite sometime. Does anybody know what may be wrong.? I have it running on 2004 no problems.David BowenCyber Air 062.

First of all, Great job with SU2 PMDG !!!Still some minor problems though. I wonder if anyone else is having diff. with opening the Bay/Cargo doors with Shift+E+2 command, i have tried all variations, but it realy dosent work on this bird,...Why ?.sekondly, is there a way to get rid of the terrible beeping during takeoff, even plane is configured correct. It came with the new update.Thanks in advance and Best RegardsJP ;o)

Can anyone help.I have an GO Flight Autopilot which works with every other plane I have. However, using the autopilot with the new PMDG and nothing on the plane reacts, ie. turning the dials on the autopilot on the GO Flight doesnt make any dial move on the plane.I hope there is a simple fix for this.Can anyone help?RegardsChris

I get all set to buy this great looking 737 and get right through the credit card field, hit Continue then get the above message. What the heck am I missing? Noel
