Hello,Is there any tutorials out there for 777 FMC? If so where can i find it?

Hi,How do I remove liveries from the default 777 liveries. I Only fly one 777 livery and need to clean-up the aircraft choices in my Fly2.Thank you.chris salviejorpll

In anticipation of the 757 Continental livery hopefully coming soon, I just uploaded Terramodels scenery for Houston, a HUB airport. Some of you may have already built one. The taxiways were out of place which made placement time consuming, but I used the USGS image file, so hopefully it is a fair rendition. Reminder to newer folks, you must download Allen Kriesman's Terramodels texture pack. Cheers,Bill GustafsonKSAT (Alamo City!)

All involved at PMDG, thanks again so much for the latest additions to the B757 hangar.Pictures have also been posted on the screen shot forum.Henri

I have been away for a while so forgive the question if it is

Good Morning!We have just made available two new PMDG repainted versions of the 757.United Airlines and Continental Airlines!The CO is engined with Rolls Royce engines, for those who are interested.You can download both aircraft from the following link:http://www.precisionmanuals.com/pages/downloads.htmOr simply visit our site and click on DOWNLOADS!Robert S.

What am I doing wrong? When I am making my descents with the A/T engaged (usually using FLCH), the nose has a tendency to bounce up & down a great deal (to maintian the correct A/T speed I suppose). I must be doing something wrong because if this were real life, my passengers would be extremely sick from the excessive motion! :-)Can anyone help me? It usually begins to happen when the flaps start to come out a little at a time (according to schedule & necessity).ThanksChris Catalano

Hello, Finally getting the Airtours done now the RR 757 is out.Issues to fix, and alot more painting to do, but just wanted to show you progress so far.http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/3d14dec9600769ad.jpg

All,Is there a way to clear the just-completed flight plan out of the FMC while sitting on the ground after a flight? Sure would make things more realistic when flying back-to-back flights (for a VA, for example) if I could clear the FMC and enter in a new flight plan without having to go out to the desk top and restart Fly!II.

Hi All. I think I have fixed the error 76 problem. Least ways it works for me. If you experienced that pesky error then get version 1.1 at my web site at http://flightassist.tripod.com/index.htm. Download the very small update and you're good to go.Sorry for the trouble caused to some.Terry

Hello, I have finaaly figured out how to package up a .POD file! I am just wondering when this paint-kit and RR Engine shall be coming because I am just itching to paint an Airtours 757! Thanks!

Hi, Don't take this as an insult to PMDG, The 757 is one of the best addons I have ever had, I only buy the best of the best so-I have noticed a couple of problems though,1) Regarding LNAV, over long distances such as trans Atlantic, LNAV dissengages and cannot be reingaged until the next waypoint. I have to use HDG SEL (very annoying over 1500 nm!!!)2) On the ECIAS screen I cannot get the yellow arrows to dissapear, have I forgotten something?3)Backlighting- Their are no alternate flap extention switches beneath the gear lever but when the backlights are on, the markings for them appear. Similar problem on one of the HYD pumps.4) Hydraulics- the centre pumps are a bit sc…

Same message as before, but this time I'll put my real name, because I would like a reply from PMDG.Well, before I begin any sort editorial or mention any faults in the new 757-200 for Fly!2 software. I would like to first off say that, I appreciate all the hard work from the people at PMDG, I'm not a programmer, but from what little knowledge of programming I do know, I can say that I can't even begin to imagine how many hours of tedious, mind-numbing data entering those people went through to bring this product to us. So once again, to PMDG: Thank you and good job, and for $35.00 a pop, I can only hope that it may soon be worth your while. I don't know whether anyone fr…

Did you get my email???

Their lack of posts of any kind is a bit disconcerting....Bob L

Regards,Bob Lyddy

A few adjustments to make to the night lighting on the rudder. Grant, Robert, email is on the fritzzz again :-( Pete

Pete or Grant, could you guys direct me towards a program that can extract pod files for FLY! 2? I would greatly appreciate it! :)

Still have no way of getting A/Ts to function correctly. I selected crz for EPR, then could not deselect it. If I press EPR, isn't it supposed to cancel the SPD button & vice versa?Also it seems If I have my throttle at idle whel I select the speed button, my lower left corner of the EHSI will read "IDLE". A/Ts only attempt to follow my speed if I have my joystick throttle at something other than idle when I engage the speed button. Pressing the speed button a million times for speed intervention seems to do nothing most times. I'd attach some pictures, but I am getting a "Script error" message every time I try to show them to you all. As you can bet, the A/T …

All,Can anybody clarify the missed approach in the 757 for me? When missed approach is declared:SELECT TO/GASELECT FLAPS20ESTABLISH positive climbRETRACT landing gearRETRACT flaps on scheduleACCELERATE to holding speedMy problem actually lies in the deselection of LOC/APP so that I can transition to a climb. What am I missing?

Hey all,Just got back from Beautiful Sunny SEA and snapped some pictures of the New 757-300 Ready to deliver to NWA. There is only one word to sum up this bird, LONG! :-) Just thought you might enjoy.RegardsPaul:-cool

For those who read my problem with getting SB to start, I finally found out how to correct it.I own a acer travelmate 620 preloaded with programs. My graphics adapter is a Intel®830M Graphics Controller-0. On the desktop menu, chosing graphics menu, shorcut keys and disabled cured the problem although I dont know which short keys were disabled.Denis

I am searching for professional aircraft designers and/or companies that may be interested in working under contract with a major organization to develop extremely detailed aircraft add-ons for commercial software such as MSFS, FLY II, or X-Plane. These add-ons would be for existing complex fixed and rotary wing aircraft. They are to be used as procedural cockpit and scenario trainers for professional pilots. If you are or know of any people or companies that may be able to assist me, please reply or e-mail me at [email protected] and I will go into more details. Thanks for your time.

I'm out in VA visiting the parents for the next several days and I'm wondering if anyone (Rob?) knows a good spot or two around Dulles that one can park their car and watch the airport and the airplanes? I believe there was an observation deck in the terminal, but since I flew myself out here I don't exactly have an airline ticket to get into the secure area.... if the deck is even open anymore. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.Steve Perry

If you fly PMDG's 757, AWVA is the place you might want to hang out for airline flying using FLY2 and the 757. I flew with a comrade last week, and it was great. tony
