Greetings, All my PMDG jets (DC6) are working fine in P3DV4.3 but they are not showing in the ops center unless I reinstall them. Is this a V4.3 thing or some other issue?

Hello, My computer is currently experiencing issues, and my motherboard will be replaced. Everything except the motherboard itself will he untouched. I am unable to boot into Windows, meaning I cannot deactivate my PMDG products. Will my licensing be affected? Thanks.

Hi Everyone I intend to do some north pacific routings from Asia on the way to PANC and beyond and perhaps some polar routes via VHHH to the USA with the B777. I have in PFPX disabled Ukrainian airspace as they don't fly these at this time but wondered whats "off limits" in Russian and perhaps even Chinese airspace. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Tim

Hi @all P3Dv4x : all planes FSUIPC / Simconnect -- XPlane DC6 Dataref -- as far as I know there should be SDK's for this PMDG fleet available. Is this true and if so, is it for purchase - or free download ? Thank you -Uwe Heyer

Hello, Not sure if this is the right place to post this but would someone who knows what they're doing with liveries be able to add the 'crest' to the British Airways livery as this is what all BA aircraft have? Here is a link to what I mean https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=british+airways+crest&rlz=1C1NDCM_enGB759GB759&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwidyr68tfTdAhVkJMAKHZLbAmsQ_AUIDigB&biw=1920&bih=958#imgrc=QmL10UUoF9PkSM: Many thanks, Aaron K 🙂

When I start P3d v 4.3 I get a message that "there are multiple items with the same name. They must have unique names." Then it lists PMDG 737-700NGX House Winglets. Then F:\LockheedMartin\P3dv4\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDH 737-700NGX WL. The second one is correct, I can't find the first one. T e livery manager for the -700NGX WL lists two house liveries, is that correct? Also, every time is try to load the -700, I'm asked for my activation code.

I have a new computer. I want to move my PMDG birds over to that machine. Do I need to delete the bird on the old machine before I add it to the new machine? Thank you in advance. Ron Oines

Hello Guys, I need some help, I am getting on in years as is my memory. Just recently for some unknown reason, when taking off in the 737ngx I can see the visual take of speeds but there is no voice sound accompanying the visual speed which takes away the reality. I hope you understand my problem and that someone can give me a Fix. Much obliged. Richard Welsh

Can be flaps positions and speed shown on ND in 747-8? I have seen video on YouTube where ND shows flap positions in real 747-8. Can PMDG 747-8 do the same? There is a green circle and text F10 150, like flaps 10 and speed 150 knots on ND. https://imgur.com/a/5Ib8xyn Petr Stepanek

I am trying to access my account on PMDG's website. However, when I sign in it says I have to reset my password. That would be fine, except the email address I registered with years ago no longer exists, so I would never receive the reset instructions. I can't submit a support ticket because you have to be logged in to create one. Any advice would be welcome. Ideally someone from PMDG will see this and get in touch. Oliver

A press release today reports that Singapore Airlines are attempting to regain the longest scheduled flight record by restarting the Singapore-New York route with seven new A350-900ulr's. They used to fly the same route with A340-500's. When PMDG get bored redoing Boeings, there is a big market out there waiting to be tapped.

I keep getting installation errors every time i start any pmdg aircraft installer

Hey I did a LOT of research trying to figure this stuff out, started with the manual and I can't find much for a "direct to". I watched an FMC tutorial on how to setup routs and what not and I used the planner thing, datalinked with the 777 with the pro flight x thing, and I got my rout, but I can't figure out how to have AP follow it... Its setup, but ap don't follow the rout. 😕 (From KEDW to KADW) and all the legs show up. So could somebody please (In a simple manner, (cuz i aint smart)) tell/show me exactly what to do on how to make a direct to flight from one airport to another, the minimum stuff to make ap fly the rout DIRECTLY to an airport. …

Using Prepar3D ver 4.3 and Boeing 737-800. Experience offset landing at Seatac ILS - rw 034 L ( 344) with intercept ILS at TIFYS (2400" and freq 111.7) The offset is several hundred yards from centerline. Comming into Seatac from north ( ILS Rw 16L) is no problem. Any tip ??

Many of you will be familiar with FlyInside. They make a VR addon for FSX/P3D. Today they released the beta for their brand new flight sim: FlyInside Flight Simulator (FFS). It's made using the Vulkan API, which means it has excellent multi-core and GPU utilization (I just flew around downtown San Francisco with 60FPS on my 6 year old PC). What's also interesting about FFS is that it has a compatibility layer for FSX addons. The Milviz 737-200 and TFDI 727 are actually included as default aircraft. So, my question for Mr Randazzo is whether there has been any communication between FlyInside and PMDG, and whether this is a platform that PMDG might consider s…

Hi I'm trying to log into my PMDG account after being off for a while and it asked to reset my password via an emailed link within 15 minutes but it told me for both attempts that the link was invalid or that it expired. What should I do? -Angelo Busato

Hi I wonder if someone can help me solve a problem I am having with newly acquired airport software. I am getting an error message when I set route info its telling me that specific runways at either departure or arrival. I have deleted the ARPT_RWY. Dat and tried re running the P3D v4 software but no joy. I have also updated the Navigraph Airac to 1811 and still no joy. Its also not showing SIDS/STAR info in the FMC for 737 or 747. Any help much appreciated Jonathan Griffiths

Just reinstalled all my PMDG products and the Operations Centre is no where to be found. It's not in the Root PMDG Folder and not in the familiar Start Menu. Any ideas? Thanks, Tom Stewart

Just wondering if anyone knows of an Alaska Airlines Salmon-thirty-salmon repaint that was created for the PMDG 737? It's quite a striking look for the plane.

Hello! today i was going to take a flight from CYYZ-LOWW with 747-8, started up P3dV4 and got into the cockpit and suddenly i see a Chewbacca sticker on the flightyoke with the text "Chewbacca is my copilot" and i started to laugh about it and think its very funny. but when i was going to show my son it was gone, serveral times i have loaded the aircraft but no stickers again, is this a bug or a easter egg from PMDG?? Thx for a super Aircraft:) Regards, Truls Petter Elven

I just entered to the PMDG’s website and I noticed that there is a tab of the Global Flight Operation (beta). https://www.precisionmanuals.com/pages/products/GFO/GFO.html Will the release be soon ? And can I get an explaining of what can it do ?

In my many, many years owning PMDG products I've always only installed their liveries. I'm now trying to install a livery not available through them. I know how to install liveries (texture.xxx) files but have never encountered .ptp files. I've searched throughout the forums and through Google to find the basic instructions (you would think that should be something easy to fine). I have made one attempt. I found on my computer where PMDG *.ptp files are located and tried copying the downloaded *.ptp files into that folder hoping they would show up in the Operations Center Livery Downloader...they didn't. So here is a very basic question whose answer I am …
