Before you ask yes i have bought the pmdg aircraft did not torrent them!!!! both pmdg 737-800 and the 777-200 lately have been giving me problems with the landing gear when i take off I'm able to rise the gear once i get to where I'm going go to lower the landing gear and nothing happens and what ussley happens is my airspeed seems to build at this time as well even with flaps down spoilers up and everthing think this started on Sunday is this a new flaw or has anyone had this happen to them yet?

Hi all, just wondering where PMDG is at with the development of the 747 V2.0? I realise much is being done on rectifying issues on the 777, but could we get an update on this project please?

G'Day Guys I am having an issue with my paintkits downloaded from the PMDG website. They appear stretched and/or out of proportion. Please help me. Thank You

I can't for the life of me understand this! I now have to pay $5 to download my product again, which I paid $90 for to get in the first place? How can this be? It's absurd and I have never heard of anything like it. I recently formatted my PC, didn't backup the B77LR for some reason and now another $5 has to be paid before I can get MY product again!?

Now this....this really ###### me off: This guy here publicly admits that he has a pirated copy of the PMDG 777: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGpD6L44nMg Have a look at the comments section. I am virtual_aviator And just in case this moron grows a brain and removes the posts...here a print-screen: Usually I do not use such foul language in the forums, so please excuse my "######-off-ness". Best regards, Rene

Hi guys suddenly my 2d co pit started having a different look. It has become transparent like and I can see the runway thru the cabin of the plane also the cabin is so large and the front window of the cabin is now set up high that I cannot see the runway only the clouds and sky. I have uninstalled and re-installed my780 nvidia drivers everything and it is still the same. Any advise will be appreciated. FSX Nvidia GTX 780 Windows 7 ultimate I7 CPU 7770k I own both 737 and MD11 they both look the same ...it happens just today..... Peter22 I have a screen shot but not sure how post it here sorry my ignorance

ref. order number 292255 there was no link info in the email I received to download (extended download service) pmdg 777 for fsx please rectify this so that I can get the use of a product I have just purchased. regards Stan

Just wondering if any thought has ever been given to the Saab. I bet it could be as popular as your J41. I spent a few years flying the Saab and still have fond memories of it. It's a very versatile aircraft. The company I flew for operated it into gravel in the arctic as short as 3500 feet and yet going into a busy place you could easily hold 200+kts till the glideslope came alive if needed. Cheers, Dave

this seems a very round about way to get the information I require but here goes reference order number 292255 there was no link in the email you sent to download for extended download service pmdg 777 for fsx

Hey guys, SO I have been using FSC 9.4 to plan my routes and assign SID and STARS to the routes. I find that the option on FSC is very less while the FMC shows more options. This is espcially true when i'm flying in and out of JFK. Im using the FSDT add on scenery for JFK. Any solutions or fixes would be great! Thanks, C

Hi My OC have stopped working. I does startup but.... After I have selected eg. the 777 no nice menus with icons is shown on the left side. Only a simple tree with plus '+' signs that you can open, like file explorer. And only 3 three subtrees. Strange it did work a couple of weeks ago. I have run the OpsCenterUpdater but no change. Also run the FSX_Reg_Fixer. No changes. Someone else seen this?? Is there a separate installer somewhere for the OpsCenter?? Would like to re-install if possible. I am a programmer/developer so if someone knows how to 'hack' the thing so it works again I want to know how it's done. TIA /Per W Sweden

As someone who bought the Virtual CDU app from iTunes and following the development re SDK / EULA of PMDG I just checked the website of the developer and am pleased to see this posted: Hello, we are restructuring our download and distribution system, the app Virtual CDU is temporarily unavailable for purchase. If you wish to be notified when available please send an e-mail to [email protected] with the subject "Want to buy Virtual CDU" and you will receive an e-mail automatically when the app is back to stores. Sorry for the inconvenience, thank you ! Looks like they are sorting out issues. Very good news! Phil

The release and use of the B777 series called my attention to a problem I have been having with both the Triple Seven aircraft and the B737NGX aircraft. I call it the pausing problem. During a flight the aircraft’s clock will lose time in 1,2,or several second increments which can add up to an hour on very long flights in the Triple Seven. I was unaware of the external effect of these pause until a VATSIM supervisor informed me that I was pausing my flight too many times. OOPS! It’s not just the clock but the whole system is pausing during these intervals. I have not been able to find a cause for these pauses that could be directly correlated to any other computer a…

I have an annoying little problem with the autobrakes on both the NGX and the 777. When disarming the autobrakes after landing turning the switch to off applies the brakes. I then have to tap the brakes to disengage them. Not a big deal but annoying. Also, when taking off in the 777 when the switch automatically disengages from the rejected takeoff setting the brakes are applied (red brake indication in bottom left of screen). Any ideas? Have everything assigned through FSUIPC.

I have had the 737 NGX 600-900 versions and the 777 running fine since I installed months ago. I just purchased the 747x last night and installed that one and it was fine- flew it around a bit and that was it. Today I tried to run FSX but whenever I choose any of the PMDG aircraft, it requests my online activation code. I paste this in from my account and I just get an error message. Is this a known issue? Do you need my order numbers in order to respond? Jon Richardson [email protected]

planning to buy a ssd for fsx , which ssd will b good ? thanx

I keep getting a notification that there has been an update to the 777-300 and that I can choose to have the OC install it, etc etc. I hit install and the notification disappears, only to reappear the next time I start the OC. I'm slightly confused.

Hi, I bought PMDG 737/600-700 directly from PMDG. Downloaded and installed it like admin.After starting FSX and a PMDG 737 plane system asked me to activate the product online ! I get the message :ERROR: unable to activate communications. Contact PMDG Support I clicked on OK and I get the message : You don't have a valid licence for this product. The Product Support dont help me

I've had the 777 for a long time but am just now getting around to flying it. So the need to apply proper liveries came to mind and I opened OPcenter to get after task and found that the slidedown list airlines stopped after the first 5 companies and I haven't figured out how to get to go farther. As I want to load at least 3 more in the alphabet past "A" does anyone out there have a solution to this problem? If so please let me know what to do, but as I am a complete computer clutz please make the solution detailed with out too much computereese. with hope eternal, Ben Metcalfe

I just started experiencing not able to open FSUIPC with my PMDG aircraft. Also, the RAAS is not there as well in the Add On Drop down menu. Any suggestions?

Captains, I have a few update items for your weekend that should make some folks quite happy! PMDG 777-200LR/F SP1c: We are preparing to put SP1c out to testing at some point between now and Monday. (I keep promising that I am going to stop working weekends, and it never happens... LOL) This update is geared primarily toward resolving the outstanding issues related to the airplane wandering aimlessly during time acceleration, as well as a couple of other "odd-ball-one-offs" that have come our way and were found to be attributed to the same problem... The wandering during accelerated time problem was traced back to some changes we made in the connection bet…

I'm having problems with the parking brake getting stuck. I can either press the keyboard command or the button I have it mapped to on my X-52 and it will function, (either set or release depending on where it was initially)and then I can't get it to set or release again. The only way I can get it do do so is to go into FSX options and reset the control key or joystick assignment, which is getting old.I'm running Vista 64 and the FS2 Crew edition. I'm not fighting the FO it does it even whether I'm running FS2 or not.Oops almost forgot...Thank You,Robert E Thomason Jr.

Captains, This thread will provide you with factual information related to PMDG's efforts to release products compatible with the Laminar Research Xplane10 platform. General Status: ============ PMDG are currently developing a product to be released for the Laminar Research Xplane10 platform. This product is the first product PMDG have developed for the Xplane platform and as such, details of the project are being kept in-house until the project has reached a sufficiently advanced stage and PMDG are comfortable with the overall quality and functionality of the product. PMDG are using this first project as a "sandbox" from which to try out new and varied techniques i…
