The attached fictional KSFO PORTE3 off the 01s (fictional because I increased the turn from SFO 4 DME to 8 DME to spread things out a bit) exhibits a problem with the logic following the SID.The problem surfaces when it is supposed to turn to HDG 200. Instead, it overshoots the turn by at least 20 degrees to 180 or beyond in its attempt to fly back to the magenta line. The thing is, the precomputed magenta line isn't the thing to fly. When it is told to fly HDG 200, it should fly HDG 200. I was testing without wind, but with wind it should not be trying to fly some ground track, but instead the specified heading.Can someone try this out? PMDG, will this be addressed …

Hi,Just started flying the 736 and have a few questions.1. When lined up on the runway FD on A/T engaged, the TOGA switch will not advance the throttles and hold them at take off power.2. Manual Take off no problem but when engage the AP and AT at say 220kts or any other speed the engines just die to idle.3. When in AT I try and advance the throttles to a certain piont via my joystick before engaging the TOGA but there is no reaction on the power.I apologise if this subject has already been covered.Si J

I have the fuel setting to 3 in each 737 cfg file folders. However I still get unbalance fuel. No matter what level I set my left tank to, once I close the menu, it resets to full. I thought this problem was address in last update.Bill M

Hi,How do you disable the "flying tips" that pop up. I enabled them during installation of FS9.Thanks,Mal

Hi!sorry for stressing this subject, but I really need the sidstars file.The FMC is pretty useless without this data. Could anybody please mail the file to [email protected] ?Thaaaaaaanks!

Hello Aeronautical Engineers,I recently moved and purchased a new pc. I would like to transfer the 737ng to my new pc and require a new download link. I have sent two emails and it has been almost two weeks, no reply. Please, my vacation is wasting away and all I want to do is recreate my Ponte Aerea flight throughout Brasil with the new Gol livery before I have to return to the grind in order to make money to buy more add-ons =). It's my favorite fs plane, but only when installed. I have not forgotten your promise that piracy protection would not cause great annoyance to customers. It's very unlike you guys to not reply to emails so I'll give you the benefit of dou…

Hi Randy:I see that several people seem to be using your MCP. Is there someplace I can download it?Could you post it on your PIC website?Thanks,[email protected]

I'm looking at purchasing the PMDG 737, and I've got a few questions about it. First, I assume it works OK in FS9? Secondly, does it, or is it planned for it to have a clickable VC? Third, I assume there's no way to get to the cabin w/o buying ActiveCamera? Thanks!Oliver

Hi,What does the "I" (is it a capital i?) on the panel switcher do? When I press it, nothing happens.Thanks,Jim

Could someone please do a 700 paint of American Airlines? I know it would be fictitious but I have to have it, because it's the closest that I can get to he 800 till it comes out.

Hello All,I purchased and downloaded the 737NG yesterday, and having overcome the initial navdata problems (thanks Ray), I find that I have run into a few more problems and I was hoping that somebody might know where I might be going wrong.I was using the NG, originally, with FS2K2 but I was experiencing so many problems that I decided that I might as well get it over and done with and install FS9. I had hoped that this would solve most of the problems and nullify my need to post longwinded things on the various fora that pertain to the NG.Unfortunately, the upgrade has only increased my consternation! I reinstalled everything afresh, into the appropriate FS9 directories,…

I have bought this 737 2 months ago but it is full of problems.I have installed the patch in FS2002 and FS9.But it is useless.It is still making the system functioning slow(5 frames),virtual cabin doesn not exist anymore.My PC is 1 gb ddr ram,EpOX motherboard,2700 + XP AMD,HD scsi,GF4 128 mb etc etcThanks in advance.

Hi everyoneI am totaly new to this forum. I just bought that beautiful NG 737 this afternoon and made some flights already. But now I've got some questions and I hope there is somebody able to answer them to me. I hope there aren't to stupid:1. When you are in cruise and you get your clearence for descent after you have past the T/D point what is the right procedure?When I only change the altitude on the MCP nothing happens of course but when I press the VNAV button again the bird set full power (N1) and starts climbing (instead of descending)! What should I do?2. Isn't it possible to let the FMC calculating the V1 Vr and V2? I just rememer the good old times of PIC767 ;-…

Hello,I've got a problem regarding the location that the FMC is giving to airports and the routes. I could better show it with a pic: (sorry for the awfull quality)http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/30739.jpgI'am now @ the runway, but the display is saying something else. I think is has something to do with the FMC pos init tab, so I included that one aswel. When I tried to land the airport isnn't at the place the LNAV direct me toI've done everyting like your flight tutorial wrote. Could somebody please help me :-)I've used the (new) SU1 BTW.Thanks in advantage,John

Hi, I am using the CH pro pedals in both fs2002 and fs2004, both on the PMDG737. In fs9 however the rudder movement/response is far more sensitive and enormous big that my aircraft imidiately starts to slip (is that the right english word?) and almost uncontrolleble during manual landing. I keep trying using the sensitive-settings in FS9 and Fsuipc but without results. What can I do about a more logical...lets say, almost "auto-coordination' feel of manual steering??Roeland ludoph

Since the alphas in FS9 have been kicked up a notch I've been playing around with trying to duplicate the pearl finish on the new Northwest Airlines livery. This is my first cut of this livery. I've a few other techniques to try but I want to gauge the reaction to this initial attempt. Comments?http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/31007.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/31008.jpg

Hey all, is anyone working on an American Airlines repaint for this plane? If not, I guess I better clear all the junk out of my Paint Hanger and get to work ;-)Also, can we have this plane installed in both 2002 and 2004? Just curious. My initial install was into 2004, so not sure how or if I can install it 2002 as well since 2004 & PMDG just aren't a good combo when online for me.Thanks!Lance

Can anyone direct me to an site where I can download 767PIC_all_0304.zip.Richard Stefan's www.navdata.at site is currently down and without the AIRAC cycles I cannot use the FMC. I purchased the PMDG 737 NG last night and got pretty frustrated until their support told me what was wrong.Any help will be appreciated!Heiko

I have seen it mentioned on a few threads.Can someboby post a link so I can take a look at it. I have tried several searches without success.I had been using FSNavigator to load my previous flight plans to FS2002 then to the DF737 FMC.Now I am using FS2004 and PMDG 737 I believe Fs-Build can save a flight plan to the FMC.I am waiting for the FS2004 version of FSNavigator.Thanks,Mal
