Hi Is it possible to use the Queen of the sky for FSX?...Do they offer a service update without spending any penny to the clients^ta

An interesting possibility has been brought up in the PMDG FB page. Namely that of using FSX shared cockpit feature (or some other means) to fly a plane cooperatively over the net. This is the thread in question:https://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=479&post=2869&uid=165758250130634#post2869I think this would be a rather exciting direction for our hobby to take. If the technical aspects can be solved, I'm sure a lot of people here would be interested.What do the PMDG devs think? Is this feasible? Could it be achieved in some other way other than FSX's Shared Cockpit (off the top of my head: using Virtual LAN and WIdeFS)?

Hello,I am trying to install the Air Canada Livery for PMDG 747-400 FS9 i know its and auto installer and i click next etc and the directory is my Flight simulator folder and when i start Fs9 there is no livery on any types of the 747Please helpKeith

I am sending the 2010 in the trash, with some bitter taste of problems and unfulfilled expectations...I hope 2011 wil bring to all of us more luck, joy and happiness!.. And an NGX...Best wishes to the PMDG team, to Mr. Randazzo and all to supporers!...

Robert,I would like to wish you and all of the PMDG crew a Happy and Prosperous New Year. I have been following PMDG since its inception and you are the best.I am particularly looking forward to the release of the 737NG, as I was involved in the flight testing of the #1 & #2 737's built. Had many hours of flight time on the #2 plane. Having been retired for many years now, flight simming keeps me close to my many years in flight test.Thanks again for your passion in keeping Flight Sims to "as close as to the real thing" as it can get.Tom

Does LLBG not work right for anyone else? I can't seem to get the SID to display correctly using the 1013 navdata from Navigraph for LLBG. "route disconnect" between the sid and the next waypoint.

For those of you who have it, I have a simple question that I have not been able to answer.How do you look up, or down?What I mean is simple (I hope), since I will probably have to get it for the NGX, the Dash8, and T7. Say I want to activate tcas to above or below, if I look down with my head, I will not be able to see the monitor, so is it proportional?Do I slightly look down or up? I am sure there is a simple answer, but am unable to find it anywhere.Also, and while we are at it, should I also look into ez-dock separately, or have them work together, or not at all?Thanks for the insight.

Maybe it is too early to ask right now....Will the NGX supports Microsoft Flight in the future？hum......by update or....

Quoted straight from the CEO of orbx himself, John Venema... Maybe an aircraft?? :(

Hi Guys I've just joined the forum and would love some tips please, I have a PMDG B-747-400 Queen of the skies and MSF FS 2004 and have two questioins pleaseFirstly, When I land I disconnect my and Autothrottle but sometimes the Aircraft then seems to slide all over the place and sometimes the tail rudder is alters to face off either to the left or right, I have no directional control on landing, I am also using a Yoke.Lastly, I'm trying to find how I can get too and access the active camera, it says in the manual there are 2 files added PMDG 747 Views RL.acv: and PMDG 747 Views FS acv I can use all the cockpit features,but I cannot see external views or walk the passen…

I was just wondering, can someone from PMDG tell us how much of the printed documentation available for sale will come in PDF form when you buy the NGX?Many thanks.

Happy new year everyone regards from Sweden.Hope 2011 will be full of flight sim hours for everyone.I post this now because i wont have time later :(

I am trying to get the PMDG banner for my signature but I can not figure out how to get it onto my signature. I copy the link and delete the part PMDG says to "delete this" but all I get is the link not the picture. If there is someone who did put a "how to" for dummies , sending the link would be awesome.Any help would be GREATThanks a lot

Hope it runs better than my last PC

Hi everyone! Just struck me, didnt it used to be a tradition before an aircraft was released that someone would start a story with two words and people would add another two words and we'd just see where it ended up? If so may I be the first to kick start it? To keep it kind of in topic, i'll start like this....The 737.....Richard

Hi Guys,Firstly, sorry for another post inquiring about the Manuals delivery tracking.Now, I had received my tracking details last Wednesday night, item was shipped on the 9th and went from Chicago on the 10th at 18:00. Since then nothing has been updated, I have tried calling Pacelforce and I get an automated message about Scotland's weather.I'm not that concerned, yet, but have any other UK users, who have ordered the manuals, seen anything similar.Maybe the weather issues in the UK has seen recently has caused a backlog. I live in London.

Hi all,Why are there square borders around the N S E W keys only on a FMS CDU in a Boeing plane?Thank you in advance.Regards,Ronald

Hi guys. Quick question:FSX is a 32 bit program. But, if I run this program on a 64 bit OS, can FSX utilize more than 4GB DDR3?

HelloJust curious whether the NGX will simulate system failures (including related structural damage like gear doors and flaps getting stuck, and wings breaking off LOL) resulting from exceeding the structural limits of the aircraft (i.e. failures due to exceeding Vne, Vfe, Vlo, Vle, etc.)?

Somebody told me no, but the User Control Panel says unlimited. I trust the guy that told me I can't, but the PMDG admins haven't gotten on my case about it.

Is there any chance of PMDG to manufacture the turboprop EMBRAER 120 "BRASILIA"???This aircraft did and still do a lot of sucess in airlines around the world.I´m sure with the quality of PMDG, this aircraft would make a lot of sucess selling in the virtual world!thxx!:(

Been going through the manuals and I'm curious how to calculate take off distances? I cant seem to find any mention of it.

Just wondering , i've been trying out shared cockpit with a couple friends of mine on various planes like the Maam and the Seneca by Carenado and also the Quest kodiak, and it's a real neat experience. Are we gonna be able to fly shared with the new ng or is it gonna be too complicated to do . Louis

Hello!!!I have this PC:AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2,8Ghz AM3ASUS M4A87TD/USB34GB DDR3 Mushkin Extreme PC2000 (Dual-channel)ASUS Matrix GTX285 1GB DDR3WD Caviar Black 640GB SATA3 7200rpmFSX run good, but not enought ...I'm considering to purchase a new graphic card, or a new HDD (dedicated to FSX only) ...What option you think will be better? A new GTX470 or 480? Or a WD Velociraptor SATA3 10,000rpm dedicated to FSX?Thanks in advanceRegards from Spain

I received the Flight Crew Operations Manuals today. When I purchased the MD-11, I also ordered the manuals. The MD-11 manuals were crisp and clear printing; absolutely no complaints whatsoever. However, the B737NGX are very disappointing. Several of the pages and one of the tab pages were nearly ripped from the binder. The printing looks like a very old and used toner cartridge was used. The diagrams are difficult to read due to the light printing and the text fades to nearly an unreadable condition throughout the entire set. I wouldn't mind if it was just a few pages, but both binders are unfortunatly consistantly gray printing and very poor print quality.I'm not…
