Well I wanted to say thanks for the 737NG :-) Just finished a flight from Kastrup (scenery by SwedFlight) to London-Stansted (scenery by Gary Summons) using ActiveSky and your 737-700 in EasyJet livery. It was a completely smooth flight including a nice autoland.I have also flown Sturup-Arlanda in a SAS 737-600and Kastrup-Pristina in a 737-700 SAS-Snowflake.I really enjoy this productRegardsEF

First, where is FMC manual that explains clearly what I can do on every page?I was unable to find on the Operations Manual how to remove waypoint from the LEGS.Also, the Operations Manual, seems to be strickly informing what each knob's function, but it does not explain the function. I was hoping to find some more information, for example it says a lever is "Isolation", well, what am I isolating when I turn it on and why I got to Isolate something before turning the engines on?Are there websites with guides I can read?

Can somebody e-mail me the 737 SID/STARs since navdata.at is down? [email protected]

After loading a couple of repaints my VC looks like this. Some of the textures aren't loading. Any ideasDave FisherCYYZhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/29048.jpg

Well, Cletus got to take a tour of the cabin in this here new 737. And dadgum if when he open the door to the outhouse it WUZ outside!. Took the EMS guys 2 hrs to scrape Cletus off the apron!

Greetings.I installed the great 737NG last night for the first time. When I was going to select the 'Extend registration' option nothing happened. Upon trying the other menu options (all of them), none of them works either. Anyone had this? The menus are available for selection (black), but when I do nothing happens.Installation order: I installed the main program, restarted, then installed the SU1, restarted, then installed the manual and then started up FS2004. The airplane works great, so I was hoping to be able to use it after the 10 day trial period as well.Running Win XP Pro on a P4 2.53GHz, 1GB mem, GF4 Ti4800 SE.Thanks,Bj

Hi just out of curiosity is PMDG working on new Night textures for the VC Flight deck.thanks love the NG

Hi,Can someone tell me how I know if I have installed the new SU?secondly,Can someone tell me how I enable the Cold and Dark Startup feature with the new SU?Thanks for any help

Guys,I have had trouble getting into the Navdata site, and as such after a reformat of my hard drive am unable to do much in terms of the FMC with the 737. Anyone who could send the nessessary files to [email protected] would be extremely helpful!Regards,

I am having some issues clearing problem messages that are showing in the FMC. Messages such as Decent PTH Unacheivable or Reset MCP Altitude are very difficult to clear. What is the proper way to clear error messages in the FMC?IIRC the CLR and Delete button both do nothing. I may be wrong here but Ill test out later tonight when I get home. Thanks for the help.Tim

I am having a problem for some reason. My throttle on my stick is set to idle but the epr settles around 33.3. I release the breaks and the craft rolls farward. I press the F1 key and the epr settles even lower down to 20.8. If I watch the throttle quad also if I set full power with the stick the throttles go into the full pos for a second or so then back off about an inch on the quad. What is going wrong here? I am using FS9. This never happened in FS2002.Thanks William

why do the flaps retract when you turn off the engines

Hello, I just got this great add-on and love it. The 10 day grace periodis not over yet and I wanted to get my permanent registration code.I have the SU1 installed. When i now go to PMDG --> Registration Details --> extend registration, nothing noticeable happens. I searched through my FS9 folders but couldnt find a file or anything that has the data I need to send to get my registration. I guess I am just too stupid. please help.RegardsDavid P.

First the good news. Just got FS9 today and installed it. Using latest Omega drivers (based on 3.6 Catalyst). Reinstalled PMDG 737 for FS9. Started up in 2D cockpit ok. However, when I switched to VC no gauges in some places (holes in panel - at least there was a lot of ventilation - lol!) and black windows for other gauges. Oh, oh. Changed the Omega driver to true-blue 3.6 from ATI site - still same problem plus other display problems. I then reinstalled Catalyst 3.2 and.....PERFECT. Beautiful changing those gauges and turning switches from VC. Thanks PMDG, she's a beauty in FS9.Now the bad news. Some of you may be familiar with my livery problems. I've posted on this …

Hello!Is there anyone experiencing an offset on the ND display?When i have loaded the flightplan into the fmc,the ND displays the route several nm offset from my position.Any solutions to this,or is it another bug?Help appreciated!

Dear PMDG,I found that using FS2004 the taxi lights are okay but feel a little too bright still, but the landing lights are blinding, I cannot even see the runway. I do have the taxi lights off when I use the landing lights. Is there a way to do this or get rid of the belly lights and just have them for show in extenal view without producing any ground lights?The last question is that the cabin lights only are on when the landing lights are on at night. Cabin lights should be bright during climb, cruise and descent and then dim when takeoff and landing. Can you change this so it is on just like the logo lights are on. Thank you very much, Waiting to hear from you inp…

Hi guys,After fuel problem solved (wich was not a problem, only me), I have a question: Is it normal that in LNAV mode the plain doesn't follow the exact path but is always deviated about 2 or 3 miles aside, even more sometimes, since ATC request heading change to correct the path.Is this normal on 737NG, or something that again I didn't read on manual?Thanks a lot.Best regardsMiguel

hi,Ive been havin trouble when ever I try to load the plane up with fuel or change the fuel load. The problem is that when I try to change the amount of fuel in the tanks the amount of fuel in the left and right tanks always refuses to change (I say left or right tanks because it alternates sometimes, sometimes its the right tank with the problem sometimes its the left). Take a look at the screenshots for an illustration of the problem.AndrewPS. As you can see this time it was the left tank that refused to change and stayed at 100% fuel, most of the time its the left tank that refuses to change.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/28949.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files…

Still I have noticed such mistake. It is impossible to enter into an echelon of transition for example number 4900, 3600 and to that similar. It complicates operation in the countries with metric system of measurement.

When you guys have ever ridden in these 73's or any other passenger airliner and during the takeoff roll and climb out and landing, you can hear creaks and pops and vibration and junk in the galley rattling as the bird takes flight. Is there any utilities out that can introduce those types of sounds? I think that'd be pretty coolShane Lewis

Perhaps this has already been noted and I just did not see it, but a small fuel imbalance issue remains between the right and left wing tanks. If the Center tank is enpty or simply has the pumps shut off, a small imbalance soon develops between the wing tanks. The difference grows until reaching exactly 120 pounds and then stays at that level for the rest of the flight. If I correct it by opening the crossfeed and shutting off the pumps on one side until they are equal, the situation is recreated shortly after switching the tanks back on. Obvoiusly, since it does not go beyond 120 pounds, this is not a serious problem, but it is wierd and I wnated to bring it to PMDG'…

Are there any solutions to the "UNABLE CRUZ FLT" and "VNAV DISCONNECTED" problem yet. I get it every time I take off.

Anyone haveing trouble getting flightplans from FSBuild 2.01 into the FMC? I load them in but from my last waypoint to the runway it is showing 6600 miles!! Think this is the reason I'm getting the Insuficent Fuel Mess. Thanks for any help

Two things that could possibly be happening:1) Your card is having trouble handling 32bit textures (wings and fuselage)2) Your system is lacking sufficient memory for AGP caching.Does the problem persist if you try setting your display settings to exteremely low?
