PMDG General Forum

I've been gone for 4 years fighting cancer and now can't wait to get back to it. The NGX looks amazing!! Waiting on a GTX 580 to arrive to replace my ATI card and the slow, torturous downloads on my whopping 512 connection. I've never used FAX and am unbelievably excited. The PMDG 737 was my first FS9 pay ware and it's only fitting the NGX be my first for FSX. See y'all in the skies soon!! Randy Swofford

Is beta for PMDG open t the public ? If so, I am interested to be a Beta tester for the upcomming B777X

Hi PMDG staff, Simple question, Are you considering an extension 737 MAX ? Fews pics :) Regards Kevin

So after the big news I really got what I wanted, well getting and that's a Pro 777. I was wondering, is there any of add on's people want? From Airports - Aircraft?The only other Add on I'd like to see is an FSX Dubai Scenery to fly the 777 out of when flying under the Emirates Callsign! Aerosoft would make a good one, don't believe anyone is though? What about you?

Recently my X52 Pro bit the dust and this time around I am thinking about getting the Saitek Pro Flight with an Extra Quadrant. This will be perfect for the 3 PMDG planes a Fly. Also have the Saitek Rudder pedals already and the registered version of FSUIPIC.. I will be flying the PMDG 737-NGX, MD-11 and 747. Has anyone had any problems with this configuration and the PMDG planes or am I good to go?

Hi all When i try and open my load managers for both MD-11 and 747 i get errors saying it cant find my FS install. It only started doing it last night when i tried to use it. All my other load managers are fine. Any ideas Alan

Hello Guys, it's me again :D I decided, to buy this PC now: http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B007LI34MA/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&s=computers&psc=1 Could you just tell me, if it is really good, to fly the NGX on the Mega Airports? Is it FSX-suitable? Thank you so much! Adrian

Is it mandatory for pilots to press the TOGA switch for takeoff or are they able to set engines power just using the throttle levers? Thanks for any input.

Hello, You have to try this! It worked out just fine for me, fsx never was so smooth! http://forum.avsim.net/topic/370594-software-hardware-guide/ Robert

Any help with assigning seperate throttles in FSX with the Saitek Pro with extra levers please? I am told (after purchasing FSUIPC) you don't need it. I am having problems with the No1 throttle (Next to the Spoiler handle) it only works between half way open and fully open. Your advise appreciated?

Hello, the Joseph Kanz. As big fan 737, the autoland virtaul cockpit is king. But no 328Jet? Was a very superior, two engine unlike a sturdy airfoil Avro junior. Fuel efficiency for new jet age, too bad the production cessation. But is very safe, well reputation, close turboprop, so can model an easy two times! A good short flight is all a goal, happy seeing. This request submitted kindly with no infringement necessary. Joseph Kanz

Hey guys, I'm just curious about this...how is that aircraft of different manufacturers share the same voice in the GPWS? Is it provided by the FAA or something?

i am going to Germany on Lufthansa and i am flying a 747 in seat 47K and on the way back an A380 on seat 81 A. I was wondering how are the views of the wing on these seats and if they are good seats. Also how is flying economy of Lufthansa.

Sorry if this has been posted.

A really Stunning video by Boeing for the 737 MAX!!!Also I noticed that they change the winglets(MAX AT Winglets) on the 737 MAX http://www.boeing.co...//737max/video/ http://boeing.mediar...?s=43&item=2246 http://www.blogsouth...nglets-revealed

Hi, I am thinking of replacing my 4 year old PC with a new PC. (New video card, motherboard, ram, CPU). I am just wondering for FSX, which one should I get, a 3930 or 3770? 3770 is 22nm and is better for OC'ing, but 3930 has more core which I know that FSX is CPU intensive. Thanks, Benny

Hi guys, I'm just looking for answers for these rookie questions... Do modern aircraft (like the 737NG) have an instrument for true airspeed calculation? Is this information really needed for current flights? if so, in which way? Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, I am coming from a guy who really uses autogen on nothing or sparse. My specs are below and when putting the autogen to ultra, I got an error message I haven't seen in years. Its the 'windows ran out of memory' blah blah. Now, here is the top line of my config [see below] is there something drastically wrong there? OR is it just a very simple case that Autogen cannot be set to ultra with other add ons running?

Hi. Looked on PMDG website, and cant find any info to help. I want to re install the 747 but my download link has expired. How do I rectify this? Cheers Eddie

i have the saitek yoke and its really good but i would like an upgrade.I was thinking of the PFC Saab yoke. I wanted the ACE yoke but it is just too expensive. i was wondering if anybody has this yoke http://flypfc.com/?/products/yokes/cirrus-saab-yoke/ and what do they think of it.

Downloaded in installed latest nVIDIA drivers for my GTX580, activated FXAA through control panel, started FSX and had to activate AA in display settings to get a better look, is there any optimum setup for these new drivers so we can get the best out of it since it got inspector integrated as well? Thanks

This is probably the only thing I don't know how to do in the FMC. Just got done watching one of my Air Canada DVD's and I always hear the term ''Extend the Centerline" I know what it means and does etc but just don't know how to set it up in the FMC. Anyone care to explain please? Cheers!

Just wanted to share this, Airbus has confirmed the stretched version of the A380. Here's a video: Looks like this version won't be entering service until 2020, we'll probably have a PMDG A380 then.
