>> The systems are programmed according to the manufacturer'sspecificationsAs the AP routines also belong to the systems, does the above stand also for autopilot behaviour ? Did you guys develop your own AP routines or are you using the MS default AP routines ?Sorry to ask this, but I have seen so many big jet Addons already (except 767PIC) that e.g. use a 5-6000 fpm climb/descent when a 2000 ft altitude change is dialed and FLCH used. Or >20 deg bank angles for a small heading change. Or oscillating N1 modes. Or S-turns around the localizer due to poor MS default turn anticipation.Would be great if you have found a workaround for this. Smooth routines ? Bank ang…

I cannot seem to get the localizer and glideslope bars to appear when the EHSI is in ILS mode (either rose or compass views). I get a localizer in VOR mode. Any suggestions? Robert Williamson

Hi guysI know you folks are busy, but I don't suppose it is possible to put together a few short videos to show off various parts of the NG is it. Its worked great for the folks at SSW and their A310.CheersAlaister Kay

Afternoon, Gents-So what's the initial feeling about the new Forum Software?I plundered my way through it for a few hours this morning- but I think I have it figured out now.... :-lol(I actually posted in our own forum without signing my post, at first.... tsk tsk tsk.... Had to delete myself...)

Hey,Do we have an engine display option (to switch at least between the EFIS mode and Compact Engine Display of the PFD/ND option) with the release of the 737-600/700? I really enjoyed your latest screenshots, but so far I

I am definately going to get the PMGD 737 but I currently also have freeware 737NGs in my library which have my VA repaints. I was wondering if the Panel would be capable with other 737NGs? Furthermore, is it going to be one big package at like 30 dollars or something where you buy it and get all versions (600 to the BBJ) or is there going to be a different pricing system--if so could you explain?

Hello, I recently purchased the 757 for Fly2 and when I load it up in Fly2, I get no left, right, and aft quarter left and right views. My left views show a little of the bottom of the front panel. I followed the installation instructions as far as installing PAtch 210, the 757, the patch 240. Any suggestions? Robert Williamson

Maybe that

Hi Lucus. Welcome to the forum! Yes, there will be winglet versions for those aircraft that have them :)Vin ScimonePMDGwww.precisionmanuals.comhttp://www.vinscimone.com/dancnkid.gif

Hi PMDG,I've been looking over your recent pictures of the external visual model, and for some reason I feel that the cockpit window framing just doesn't look right. I understand that these pictures are not of the final product, but I'm not sure if it will be changed or not. In my opinion the texture used for the framing is way too dark and it sort of blends into the windows, which makes it look odd. Perhaps it's just me, so everyone correct me if I'm wrong, but I just feel that the framing should be thicker (in size) and lighter (in texture).(I was comparing your visuals with real photographs taken at the same angle, which brought me to this conclusion)I really am lookin…

I assume only for EGPWS equipped aircraft?

HI EVERY ONE I'M WONDERING WHEN THE NG PROJECT WILL BE AVAILABLE, CAN YOU GIVE US A APPROXIMATE DATE OF RELEASE, I CAN'T WAIT FOE THIS OUSTANDING PROJECT. I LOVE 737 NGTHANK YOU

Looking at your shots, it could have been updated since then, your 2d panel MCP colors from the front view are in orange (what you said was the correct one for the "older" MCP) the view Forward_Right for example dispays the New mcp. I was just wondering if it was an easy fix to change the text color. (I dont remember if you said the 2d views were saved in layers) If not im totally ok with it, just a little small question, thanks a ton!!

Hello Robert,I hope I can call you by your first name. :-)I know that you are a real pilot but I just red in another post that you have four stripes on your suite. :(Could you say to me which aircraft you actually fly, which you have flown and how long you have been doing this profession besides programming?Sorry I know this might be off topic, but I couldn

Hi PMDG team!I have som questions for ya regarding the 737NG.1. Ive searched for pics with the blu digits on the AUTOFLIGHT panel, only found amber digits, so witch color will be in your 737NG?2. The diffrent modes and pages on the EFIS displays, are you going to include all of them?3. The buttons on the FMC seams to have a diffren shape than in real pics, they are more round on top than the more flat ones ive seen from pics?4, Are you going to release the manual before the release of the aircraft?5. Does the FMC handel DME-arcs?I couldnt come up with more questions for now, but maby later.;) I sure looking forward to this bird of yours.:D Regards,Johan

Jets don't do it for me ;-) Props are where it's at! Any teaser pics? How about the panel? Can't wait!

I know there are two types of PFDs on the 737NG:1. I will call one the 777 style where it is a very large artificial horizion with the Altitude tape on the right and the airspeed tape on the left.2. I will call number two the Combined PFD where it is like four different gauges each in one specific quarter of the PFD. My question is: Which version is being modeled, and if both, how would a user select between the two? Thanks a ton, it is looking great!

HiWill the upcomming 737NG include a authentic INS with a real startup sequence? I mean we have to wait for approximately 10mins to have all the these and more informations: position, heading, altitude... (I'm not a 737 specialist, but in the real MD11 you have to run it up at first).I hope you will include the INS in your 737. (As real as it gets)Greetings from Switzerland and sorry for the bad english.Manuel

hi my friendswill you sell your panel as a separate package or only bundled?cheersMartin

Reading about the option for -800 and -900 made me wonder if PMDG will continue the fleet down to the -200 through -500 series after completing the project. While it has been attempted before it's clear that it has not been done to the level that it's clear this project is aiming for. Having ther aircraft already modeled albeit the NG series would probably facilitate the effort. I for one would be very interested. The notion of switching back and forth from new to old technology is appealing. Pedro

Hallo PMDGAre some new Naviagation and Primary Flight Display pictures of your upcomming 737 available? It would be great to see some.Greetings from SwitzerlandManuel

just wanted to know if the FMC will have to load as a separate program like the Dreamfleet 737 as this method is a pain in the you-know-what- can't wait for this product!!

Hi, I don't like asking these types of questions but how much longer after the -600/700 variants do you anticipate you will release the -800/900's. They are the ones I want to get my hands on :-)Alaister KayP.S. I love your new house livery, looks very business like :-)

Hello PMDG team,On the new 737NG's will CWS (Control Wheel Steering) be simulated?Thanks-Nick

Hey,I enjoyed all your screenshots of the past days, but could you at least post one screeny with the 737NG Panel lights illuminated and will we have an option to choose between the intensity (dimmed, bright)?greetings from TXLPatrick H.
