    I am trying to buy the PMDG 737 1 year re-download service on the website and I can not checkout. This is not the first time this has happened. I put the order into cart and when I press checkout the screen says I have nothing in my cart. This is only happening with the re-download service products. If I put a 747 into the cart then it let's me checkout. Does anyone know a workaround? BTW, I was logged in.

    Dear PMDG,A while back I purchased your 747 for FS9. I am a private pilot, and know about FMC's and the whole 9. You were the first hardcore "add on" that I purchased for flightsim. I thought it was the coolest thing to set my own waypoints (Latitude, Longitude etc.) in the FMC. I saw a flight of a NASA U2 on FlightAware and thought it would be neat to recreate it and so I did, with ease. I have since then bought a new computer that can run FSX well, and have purhased your MD-11 and 747 for FSX. I worked for a major cargo airline, and MD-11's and new 747's were the heavy hitters for the company. I talked to many of the pilots about different flights and have b…

  6. First, let me praise the folks at PMDG for a fine product. I have been flying the 737 NG for over a year now and I am still amazed. I am not one who likes to waste others time with questions that I can't go and search for the answer myself but I have run into a problem researching the answer to this problem. I have noticed some posts about this same issue but no great answers as to how to definetly fix the problem. The scenario is this. I was flying into Atlanta Hartsfield today and going to make an ILS approach for runway 10. When searching arrivals in the FMC, ILS runway 10 was an option. Approaching the airport, I had tuned the localizer (111.55) and was able to …

    Hy all!!!History:Dep : LFMNArr : LFLCBut during flight for some several reasons I had to reroute on Lyon (LFLL).....I had from LFLL APP, the runway in service but IMPOSSIBLE to modify my new routing on the FMC. Trying everywhere, inserting the new airport ICAO code, even the ILS Frequency of the runway....but with no results!!!! I really needed for my landing as it was a foggy day!Even on the FIX page, I did write the airport ICAO code, with the distance.....but it didn't change at all !So my my following question is : How do you set a new airport of destination during cruising?thank youbest regards

    Well, I say to all the staff and administration PMDG forum, which leads to the 737 PMDG in your virtual cockpit, the operation of GEAR in OFF position, in which case it is not possible (only in 2D). The other PMDG aircraft of wonderful simulation can achieve this, only the 737 NG is not possible, I wonder if there is any way to build this function in 3D, not only for me but for many other members who use the model . Thank you, I hope to be answered. :( rewards.Vinicius .

    I was attempting a missed approach today in 737NG at KATL on ILS 8L. Once I got to minimums, I hit TOGA and the plane pitched upward and engines roared back to life. After cleaning up with gear and flaps being retracted, I noticed the plane did not take me to the holding pattern-TROYS. I had the A/P on as well as I was in VNAV and LNAV. I then attempted to DIRECT TROYS and although I was able to enter it, the FMC was confused and I just kept heading straight. This is not the first time this happened to me trying this. It also happened when I was training on Metzinger's training manual when landing in Orlando. Is this an active option? If so, does anyone have any s…

    Thought I'd share what i have been using lately to analyse my landings, NTSB-style :(: It's a program called FLTREC9 (sry FS9 only) that is basically an FDR in such a way that it records any variable (like N1, Pitch, Bank, V/S, Wind, Controller Input, you name it) over a period of time and saves it to an Excel sheet. This is really cool as it allows you to objectively analyze your flying. For instance as i have done above with my landings (0 sec = touchdown). You can see i flared too early at KBOS causing a rather firm touchdown and as a result it bounced :(, at KORD i flared too late. However, my landing at LFPG was textbook :(If anybody is interested feel free to ask.…

    Having flown the RWY14 approach in Zurich a few times now in the PMDG MD-11 I decided to fly a missed approach. The approach plate for the ILS DME Rwy14 CAT II/III shows a requirement to climb on track of 137 deg (ie the rwy heading) to 4000' and then a LH turn at 5.1 miles DME from the IKL beacon to 360 deg track and intercept the the 234 radial ZUE. At 7.8 DME ZUE then continue the climb to 7000'. Cross ZUE and track the 097 radial ZUE to the AMIKI waypoint. Assuming a second attempt at an approach is allowed which I guess it would be if the reason for going missed was something like an obstructed runway for example, what actions do the crew take to perform a second app…

Everything went just ok - fuel 80 000kgs - first FL 320 then FL 380 and LW (landing weight) 191000 kgs. But in an autoland when rolling out I switched off the autopilot, pressed the "."

    I flew the tutorial from the MD-11 with FS Passengers and MSFS ATC. When I'm in the G/S FSX exits and says FSX ran out of memory, FSX will be shutdown (or something like that). On a lot of forums I see people with this problem... But what to do about it, except buying more ram or enlarge your VIRTUAL MEMORY. I already tried that... I didn't get this message before I started using the PMDG MD-11! Help!Greetings,Chris

    Hi there,As you can see by the images below, I have a problem :( and that is this: I start of at EGKK 08R to fly to EHAM 18R and I fly the route EGKK CLN5P CLN UL620 REDFA REDFA1A EHAM, so a short, basic route. I fly, it descends me down fine in autopilot, and I know the basics on how to fly this plane. However, when I arrive at EHAM, the route takes me to an ILS intercept point, but it's miles off from the Airport.Another strange thing is, the ILS frequency for RW18R is 109.50 (found this out from MSFS map, who's labeled the runway, 19R), yet the MD-11 autotune deciced to autotune 110.10 which is odd. I currently have AIRAC 0812, so one behind, I haven't had time to sor…

Fist I though I was missing to turn on any speaker (since I start from dark and cockpit) but searching in youtube I saw a "tutorial" in whic the panel emmited normal sounds from the starting. In addition, I can even start the engines or contact the ATC, but can't hear any of them. I need help!! I have been a time out of FSX and I was really excited cause of my coming-back to MD-11. Now I'm desperate. Thank you

    Hi.No big matter, but just curious.The flaps of the 744 can be operated "live" when watching a replay. Spoilers move as they did in the original flight.On the 737NGs both flaps and spoilers move as they did in original flight. But in neither cases does the ailerons/elevators move. Not as they were moved originally, nor "live" from input during replay..Why is it like this, and is it possible to change it? It would be neat to watch a replay with all surfaces moving accordingly.. :( Thanx in advance.//Johan
