Hi!Is there any way to force the FMS to overfly a waypoint?Thanks,TomBerlin, Germany

I would like to ask u how does the cargo door opens on the 600???Because i didnt find a way to open it???

Hello,Is it possible to create a flight plan using Flightsim Commander and uploading that plan to the FMC?. If not is there a planner out there that will work?.Thanks You

Hi, on my copy of the 737 the center fuel pump/low pressure lights do on the overhead panel do not illuminate when the pumps are switched off. The right and left wing tank fuel pump lights seem to work fine.Not sure if this is a documented issue or maybe just my particular setup. Running PMDG 737 with SU1. Thanks.

I bought the 737 on July 9th. Got it to install in 2k2, but not in Fs9... Keep coming up with the attached error, on loading FS9, and then the sim crashes when I try to load the PMDG planes only...Bottom line, it is looking for a 2k2 file in FS9. It is the same in both I know. And it is in my folder, I have checked. I have even made copies and put it in other folders in FS9, to see if it would pick it up.. But, I just realized..before it even gets to the file....BASED ON THE MSG, IT IS LOOKING FOR A FOLDER THAT DOESN'T EXIST!!!! It is not looking for d/msgames/fs9/scenery/base..... it is looking for d/msgames/scenery/base.....your code is looking for the wrong subfolder…

On my 19 inch monitor the FMS CDU can be a little hard to read. I changed my relevant default 737 panel.cfg file to enlarge the CDU by making the following edit to the CDU window entry: //--------------------------------------------------------[Window05] // PMDG_CDU_PANELfile=737NGFMC.bmp file_1024=737NGFMC.bmp size_mm=600,800pixel_size=600,800position=8visible=0ident=GPS_PANELwindow_size= 1.000, 1.000window_pos= 0.000, 0.000gauge01=PMDG_737NG_Main!CDU, 0,0,600,800,LI changed the gauge size to 600*800 to make in more legible. The only drawback is that the CDU delete and clear keys don't seem to work correctly after this tweak. My workaround is to simply switch…

Hello all - This is a question directed at the gurus out here other than the PMDG folks, who I am sure cannot actually "support" me with this question. :) I am attempting to merge the 737NG panel with various 3rd party models, and running into problems. I have hit the center tank dry flameout problem (even though the wing tanks indicate lots of fuel on board), but I don't think there is much to fix there.I also have an issue whereby I copied the .AIR file and portions of the aircraft.cfg file to a 3rd party model's directory, and edited the aircraft.cfg accordingly. This is being done to use the superb flight charasteristics of the PMDG airplane, but with the visual model…

Hi all, I think I found a possible bug.I was planning a trip from Amsterdam (EHAM) to Troms

Greetings,I purchased the 737 online at the PM web site. I got a confirmation #. I never received an email with any instructions to download the last file set. I have sent three emails with name, #, and clarifications to the situation, etc to the support email address listed in these forums and the web site and have not heard a peep (gawd, I hate-hate-hate email for customer support. The EASIEST form of communication to ignore).Anyone out there? is this thing on? Hello?

Hi,Is there documentation for repainting the 737 NG anywhere? I have downloaded the paint kit, but it contains no instructions on what to do. I have painted parts of the full left and full right fuselage, but I have no idea how to get them into FS. Can anyone point me towards some documentation or help me out? Thanks.-Shaun

HiIm not sure if this has been discussed yet or not but will any cargo livery's be realesed? FedEx, KLM Cargo, BA Cargo etc? Im not sure if any of those airlines operate the 737 but it sure would be cool if someone could paint them.Thanks everyone!

HiI've been hunting through the manuals with no success, of how to load a saved route on the FMS.Can anyone please enlighten me on this aspect?Thankshttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/36133.jpg

Is there any way to activate the Comm2 radio so that I might be able to hear both Comm 1 and 2 at the same time? I see that I can switch the channels on it but have no audio.Cheers!Richard Rice

Hello fellow pilots,Hope you are well :DI dont suppose anybody knows of any publicly available SID/STARS for Bournmouth(EGHH) and Frankfurt Hahn(EDFH). Or, if anybody has a PMDG737 set for the FMC.Failing this, does anybody have the RyanAir flight plans for the route.I have CAA data for Bournmouth but there are no SID/STARS only ILS info.Thanks for the helpRegardsNigel

Hello all,I have a problem with NavData/FMC for PMDG 737NG in FS9/CoF.Yesterday I was to land at LFBO (Toulouse, France) and ATC instructed me to land at Runway 15L.However, on the Arrival page of the FMC there were no Runway 15L. Instead there was a runway 14L. Of course ATC was right; there is a Runway 15L at LFBO, but there are no such thing as a Runway 14L.LFBO is NOT replaced by an add-on airport. It is only one of the standard default airports.I triple-checked that I had indeed entered LFBO as the destination airport in the FMC.I have downloaded and installed the AIRAC-Cycle: 0310 (Oct/02/2003 - Oct/29/2003)Revision #3 (Oct/03/2003) from www.navdata.atHow do I fix a…

I had a reasonably good system (or so I thought):XP ProDX9bATI Radeon 9700 ProStriped HDD512 MB PC2700I upgraded my memory to 1 GB recently.Using the 737 with VC and cabin my VC frame rates jumped up from 10 to about 14. My 2D panel fps is pretty solid at 20 (locked).This is using the fair weather option and in-flight.Taxiing on the ground at EDDM my VC cockpit fps is between 12 and 16.I have UT with all commerical flights set at 100%. Scenery complexity at max.Of course, there are a lot of other variables. But as it stands right now if you have 512MB RAM or less your greatest performance increase would come from extra memory.Just my 2 cents. Sorry if this is old news.Che…

This Aircraft has been denied its proper place as one of the most beautiful planes in the skys by many MSFS 3rd Party developers....SO PMDG.......How Bout A PMDG 757 4 FS9........????????You guys did it for FLY please consider a 757 for FS9Thanks for the Thought.Randy

I have loaded PMDG files and SU1-1 update. Program functionning under MSFS 2004 but the fuselage and wings aren't painted with the different paint at our disposal. Only the tail and the motors are represented.Who is the problem ? System is P4 2,6MHz with WIN XP HOME FRENCH, video card is RADEON 9700 PRO with Catalyst 3.8.Can somebody help me ?

HelloHow can I perform at STAR with default FS2004 ATC. When approaching the airport the ATC only zig-zag vektors me to the final, this i very frustrating. If I don`t follow these vektors the ATC gets angry and give me several warnings.Torbjoern

Finally,Fellow ATI users, there is a new driver from Omega that solves the problems we have been having ( well it did for me ).It is a leaked driver, modified my Omega, and it works great.They can be found at www.omegacorner.com Finally we can fly with our heads held high, knowing we have the best !Paul ( SPIM ):(

I noticed two CDU's are shown on the VC, and they are not functional.If you, like me, don't need them, remove the VCockpit2 part from panel.cfg.Less gauges to draw = more fps.
