    Well 2 days ago when I did my flight from Midway to Phoenix Sky Harbor-I used the PMDG 737 (of course) and the entire flight went fine! No troubles! Anyway so today I try doing a flight from Phoenix to San Diego and I went choose the pmdg and when it went to the main fs load screen, my computer totally crashed! All it said was "Loading Scenery objects". It didn't even go to 1%!I tried loading another aircraft and everything was fine! It's just the pmdg! If anyone has any potential explanation to whats causing this PLEASE help! I know it's totally unexplainable! It's driving me nuts

  4. Hello. I'm currently trying to place an order on your main site for the MD-11 manuals. I add them to the cart, but when I hit "checkout", it says my cart is empty. I am signed in during this process. Does this have to do with the maintenance issues? This is an incredible aircraft by the way!ThanksRobert

    Hi everybody,A few days ago I tried to improve my PMDG 747X by adding a panel for control of the pushback. I tried to add this gauge in the standard 737 by adding an entry in panel.cfg - works fine.Then I tried to repeat that procedure with the PMDG, but this was less successful. I cannot access the panel via "Views" and "New Panel" (I don't know the exact caption, because I'm using the German version, but I think of the menu, where one can click to show for example the overhead panel)Now I wonder about the way I can add a gauge in the PMDG cockpit? Is there any? Please show it to me ;-)Greetings from Germany,MarvinPS1: I used the search-function without any success, if i…

    Would be nice if there was some kind of training pilot sitting next to us in the PMDG747 that could audio talk us through every button and switch to do a cold and dark startup and could monitor if we were doing it correctly. Also could take us through some emergency procedures. .Any chance of something like this in the future?txAl

    I run my aircraft and general sounds through the sound card to the speakers, and all ATC and voice through a USB headset. When setup correctly in FSX, this works great in all my aircraft EXCEPT the PMDG744 and MD-11. In these, I get very strange sound behaviour, varying when in different views.Has anyone else had this?Know of any way to correct it?Thanks

    I just bought and received a Goflight MCP Pro and an Engravity CDU just for my FS9 PMDG 737 & 747 and when I went to your eCommerce shop I was unable to find the GoFlight MCP Pro Software Interface or the CDU Software Interface. Have you stopped selling them? You can imagine my disappointment over not being able to use these very expensive pieces of kit. Without the interfaces all I can do is watch my toys collect dust! P.S.

    Hi Guys, I have 2 problems, which have recently started. For some reason, when attempting an ils approach, the aircraft will not hold the localiser course. It just will not line up with the runway. The glideslope works correctly. The localiser frequency and heading are as the published approach. Have tried out many different airports with the same result.The other prob. is the the load manager has ceased to work. The only thing that is changeable is the fuel weight, and the top section, for indicating which sort of passenger layout is required.I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no change in behaviour. Am using FS 2004 and Windows XPCheers,Neil

    Hello,First off, I would like to say how happy I am with PMDG at the moment, I still go back into FS9 to fly the 737, even though FSX is installed. I was extremely pleased to hear that PMDG is making another turboprop, it will be great.However...I have been searching for almost 3 years now for a high quality EMB-120 package for FSX. Online Simulation Solutions was making one, they cancelled it and their company closed. Eric Cantu has a wonderful one, it is for FS9 though and I cant find a decent sound set and panel for it. So, if at all possible, I would love to see a PMDG version of the Brasilia. It's a great turboprop, and one that I've flown on many times, and wou…

    Hello: just bought the MD11 a week ago and everything is working great except for one little detail. The Flight guidance panel FCP is blacked out where the buttons and switches should be and the led displays are all black. They are there on the VC but when you pull the FGP popup there black.I have tried this both in widescreen and normal and even with the undockable panels all are the same as if the texture or bitmap for this gauge is corrupted. Also the ECP and the rest of the guidance panel is fine just the FCP. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Other than that awesome aircraft!Peter Wheatley

    I flew into JFK today with "AUTOLAND" selected, as I turned to line up with 04R all had gone according to plan until I was to line up with the localizer. I lined me up way left of it, almost smack in between 04L/R. I had to disengage the AP and bring her in by hand.Im using FSDREAMTEAMS JFK in FSX with the MD11.Has anyone got any ideas as to the problem and to a cure? AFCAD? I have the latest cycles from Navigraph.

    Hi all.I am looking for a way to improve the sound in the PMDG 737s. I currently use a package found at avsim which is a lot better than the original..For example;like in real life, you can just barely hear the engines on startup from the flightdeck. Most sounds drown in the aircond noise in the cockpit. But maybe there are packages that are even better out there.Things that I would like to see improved are:On takeoff: after spooling up and applying takeoff thrust, the noise from the packs should be very loud, drowning most other sounds (except ground roll sounds) with a roaring swooshing windsound.Gear Up noise improved: as the gears are retracted the braking sounds of t…
