    I've always wondered, how much of a difference does turning on the autobreak (ie 737NGX) make when you are landing? Oops I meant antiskid.Patrick Boynton

    I recently made some updates to my FS PC. I run FSX with the NGX and ASE. I also have FSDT scenery for JFK. I run FSInn on a networked laptop.My current/new specs are:Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 motherboard6gb DDR3-1600AMD FX6100 6 core 3.3GhzPNY GTX560Ti 1024 GbMy HDD is fairly old, I don't remember exactly what it is. My PC identifies it as a WDC WD25000AAJS.A sandy bridge CPU wasn't an option due to price.So, what can I expect with this configuration, any tweaks recommended?My FSX.cfg has been ******* tweaked, and my graphics settings are as recommended in Ryan's thread.

    I have just bought Just Planes DVD of the Air Canada 777/200 LR and I have to say the 777 is an amazing plane. I was particularly impressed that at max landing weight the Vref speed was 138 knots, especially as the 737-800 can have a higher Vref speed and not be at max landing weight.The 777 must have a very well designed wing.

    Hi guys, good day to all.I'm having an issue I'd love to get help with, This is not PMDG related, but since these forums are frequented by persons who are very knowledgable of FSX in general, I figured I'd post it here:I have noticed that my textures look blurry and out of focus except for a small radius under the plane.How can I increase that radius, so that distant ground looks better?As an experiment, I tried temporarily sliding all terrain settings to max, but that didn't help, so I'm wondering about other settings/tweaks/parameters I can try for that specific problem (something in the fsx.cfg perhaps?).I'm not specifying what hardware I have on purpose, because I don…

    Hi guys, in these day I had some problems with my pc, so I decided to format it. since I already used the activation code fsx on three PCs including my own, I do not know if I can reuse the same when formatted. if I were to use a new one, add-ons that I have now installed(747-400x and 737ngx version download, md-11 CD version), can be reinstalled with the codes in my possession, otherwise can I obtain new codes?? Thanks to all? Thanks to all

Hey all(:,i would like to tell you that i always wanted to replace the 747 400x callouts with the newer ones, so here we go you can download it from here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DI5KGP46 this is the call outs, the gpws can be downloaded from here: http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=153154ok so, how to install:just rename it for lets say: PMDG_40 or PMDG_1000 and replace it with the older one, do not forget to do a backup.*i found it, its not mine, sotell me what you think, cheers, Daniel

  13. Hi guys,When I upgrade my monitor from a 22" 1680x1050 to a 27" 1920x1080, will I notice the difference in performance in FSX? I run a 480, so it should be able to handle well,I read somewhere that possibly a lower res [like I am on] actually makes the card struggle and unleashing 1920 actually benefits performance?Any suggestions?All the best,Alex

    Hi,Since I have installed FlightSimulator on C:FSX (which is an SSD) but the programdata folder is on D: (which is an HDD) everytime I want to install scenery it will try to locate the scenery.cfg on my C: drive instead of my D: drive.Now I always have to manually add the scenery in FSX itself. Does anyone know how to solve this? It's getting very annoying!!Kind regards,DanielEdit: I have Windows 7 home 64bit

  15. Hello;I am wondering if anyone can recommend a good DVD that explains the real world 737 proceedures? Flight set up, take off, cruise, landing, etc, etcI've seen various DVDs for sale (usually by PC Aviator) that cover off on various liveries and their proceedures. But, most of the DVD is taken up with proceedures that have nothing to do with the flight deck operations.Thanks, Iain

    Kabul (OAKB) is one of them with aprt elev. 5877 feet. When it comes to mimimum hight it is getting tricky I think. Let us assume the minimum altitude is 500 ft. (above the aprt elev ). I would like to adjust minimums setting to this altitude (PMDG 737). How would I do so.... adding 5877 + 500 results in 6377ft, Does it mean I have to turn the minimum knob all the way up to 6377??? It will take like ages....any suggestions guys? gura75
