Captains-During the day on Friday, 22JUL11, we are going to take most all PMDG services offline for a period of between 3-10hrs in order to do some last minute changes and upgrades for the pending NGX release.The following services are going to be offline:- Website- Ecommerce- Licensing- Technical SupportThis upgrade process is to set up some redundancy to be certain that release day runs smoothly.IMPORTANT NOTE: The NGX will NOT be released this weekend, so please- no need to stay around hammering CTRL+R in your browser in hopes of being the first to see the site come back online. This is a service outage only!If anyone has installation/reinstallation problems during t…

On the last friday (7/8/2011), I bought the PMDG 747X download version and also two pieces of CDRoms at the same time.I know the Full Price is $59.99, the Discounted price is $19.99.I'v already paid the bill(Total $210.27), and how can I get the discount applies?I sent an e-mail to [email protected] several times, but hasn't received response at all.What can I do? My English is so poor. Please help me.My e-mail address is [email protected].

I've recently had to reinstall FSX for my new system build. I made an over sight by backing up the JS41 installation but not backing up the notepad file with my key in it. Upon trying to log into the Precision Manuals site for support/possible key retrieval, I apparantly don't have an email on file there... So no key, no email with the key in it, and no way of retrieving it.Am I stuck buying another one? (I won't, but I really want to get her installed if I can remedy my irresponsibility.)

Good day,This question is more directed at the PMDG crew and beta testers, but I guess could be answered by anyone with a Multi Monitor setup running FSX.I would like to know from the PMDG crew if anyone one the team uses a multi monitor setup for things such as having maps or approach plates within easy access rather than printing them all out. You could also be using apps such as FS Commander's moving map displayed on a second monitor while you fly. If this is the case, do you have FSX in windowed or non-windowed mode?Thanks for your time and looking forward to the NGX, so please hurry up...LOL:Big Grin:

Hi....Hopoe this is the right forum to ask this ....Have PMDG 737-600/700 and need to update FMC data. For e.g VIDP New Rw 29 & 11 and related SID & STAR are not there...Can some one help..Thanks in Addvance.

Dear allI have been browsing through the forum and found numerous reference to this problem of strange TAT readings and possibly auto-pilot related issue with loss of speed during climb. I did notice (but I might have missed it) any clear conclusion or remedy. My set-up is as follows:Computer 1Vista Ultimate 64 (I am very happy with it, yes yes....) with, among other:FSX (FSUIPC)ASEComputer 2Windows 7 64 (also happy)with, among other:SBFDCTOPCATObservations:Sudden loss of speed in climb (until stall if not overriding autopilot and accepting altitude loss)... always related to strange TAT readings (while SAT shows realistic readings). TAT is always (in the given circumstan…

A PMDG Screenshot competition? lol, IDK, I'm bored. But wouldn't this be nice?Unless I am missing a multimedia post, I think that photos of our PMDG crafts would be great!And even better if we made it into a compitition

Just saying thanks to Tabs for the awesome Customer service I have recieved in the past and very recently. So good infact you guys may just need a Tip section where customers can donate x amount for your product support. It's nice to be treated humanly. P.S your MD-11 rules...

I have been having trouble trying to figure out what has been causing it, and I got a message that told me there was some sort of problem with the PMDG sound .dll whatever I didn't think anything about it and should have read it more closely to see what .dll I also got a message from my computer yelling at me to reinstall my audio driver, which I said yes to. It is still crashing, Should I uninstall and reinstall my pmdg aircraft? Also should I try uninstalling the version of C++ that came with the aircraft?Patrick Boynton

So, I've been wanting to go into Kai Tak in the 747, for a video too, but I can't program the airport into the database; it only knows of the new Hong Kogn Airport. Does anybody have a Kai Tak VHHX fiel for the 747, that will put in teh proper approach too (Cheung Chau to GOLF- Sha Lo Wan-IGS RW13?)

oh no, it was Boeing, my fault!

Enjoy Guys, read the story about Boeing's NG picture below:http://www.boeing.co...e_07_18_11.html

Hey PMDG,I was wondering if you guys would consider a Vatsim Client, as to be honest, there is NO real good VATSIM client (especially for FSX) FSINN and Squawkbox have countless lists of errors, and I think it would be a great compliment to the NGX. Also Ryan, what do you use when flying on VATSIM?

Can anyone from PMDG comment on whether or not the new 737 NGX software will be compatible with the new VR Insight MCP Combo II??http://www.vrinsight.com/public_html/index.php?module=Board&action=SiteBoard_1&iBrdNo=30&sMode=SELECT_FORMThanks!Phil

Good evening guys, with all this talk about the Dash 8 being the next project I was wondering about it. Is the Dash currently in development by a different team that developed the JS41. Or will this project be picked up and started when they wrap up with the NGX? I searched but all the info I could gather seemed like it could be interpreted either way.

In the beginning of the week, I reinstalled FSX to "clean" it. I had no problems with that, but today I was going to do the first flight with the MD-11 in the new istallation, but I found a weird problem with the graphics. Here are some pics to illustrate that:This issue is, somehow, affecting all my payware aircraft. The default ones are normal. The MD-11 systems are still operative, the J41 cockpit is normal, but the displays are off and the graphics issue won't let me get in the Duke's cockpit. I have them for quite some time, but never had such problem with any. I ran Flight1's registry repair tool, deleted the FSX.cfg, but none of them solved it. I tried reinstalling…

Have you guys ever considered doing an ATR? And if yes, would it be tough to develop?The ATR is pretty popular (Okay maybe not so much) for some Regional carriers, and I realized that there have only been 1 Company that manufactured it...Maybe it is not that great machanically wise?

Hi guys,We have seen the repaints threads, and I am guessing there is more paints finished than the ones which have been shown. Is it possible to see the final expected list for release?As a secondary question, will the repaints from in-house pmdg stop with the first release, or continue post release?Alex

Came across a post with mention of "DX10 Preview in FSX", noted it is advisable to disable this. Question: Where do you access it in FSX and how do you disable DX10 Preview?Delf(Heron 1B)

The release date is 8/1/11 for this FAA handbook which includes large airport operations, chart reading, etc., as well as basics. Amazon is offering $6 off for a net of about $14 + S&H. I found it a very comprehensive guide and have the earlier version in my library. It is free to read on the FAA site but it is not very handy to follow all of the various links.Instrument Procedures Handbook (FAA-H-8261-1A) (Revised Edition) Federal Aviation Administrationhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1616082712/ref=pe_143810_20500790_snp_dpThe list of online related manuals is here:http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aviation/Just an FYI for a manual I've recommended on a few forums…

Hello,Aerosoft is making the whole island Corfu, Greece. Also known as Kerkyra. It's still in development but in case you are interested and you have missed here, well here is it:http://forum.aerosof...orfu-x-preview/Looks nice eh? :D Can't wait to make a nice approach to this airport with the lovely NGX =)

Hi All,Since AVSIM has cancelled FANCON2011 in Washington, DC. I'd like to suggest we have a PMDG FANCON in 2011 at Roberts place perhaps?Cheers,BB
