Can someone help me in installing the PMDG tutorials in FSX!!!!!!please!thanksVickster

Hey there,Just wanted to say Awsome plane, im currently on my maiden voyage, and i have one small problem. When i reach cruising altitude she wont level off. it rocks up and down about 300 ft. in both directions and id like to put an end to that. Otherwise this is the colloest plane ive ever flown and thanks for the excellent work on her.

Is the link for PMDG website down? I haven't been able to access it from anywhere, that's including google and Yahoo. Troy

Hey, I've observed on more than one occasion if I change from MDA to DH and change height to 200 and land everything is good. If I then taxi back around and do a circuit, I get no subsequent GPWS Callouts at all on the second approach or any other approach thereafter but the 200 turns orange on the PFD when passing.I take this is a bug? It's ok if I leave it on baro.P.S. The RST button doesn't appear to do anything also, am I right?

Hi folks,I'm curious as to why everytime I launch the 747-400 FSX Load Manager it attempts to access the internet?Is it reporting data back to PMDG or attempting to retrieve data needed for the load manager?I'm not accusing PMDG of anything, so please do not read anything into this; I'm just curious as to the behavior.Regards,Bob Lyddy

Good afternoon Yesterday i did a flight with the Cargolux 747-400F in flight sim 2004. The flight was CLX 774 from ELLX-KIND-KLAX. the flight was great on the ELLX-KIND leg with no major problems. On the KIND-KLAX leg a major problem happenedI mimiced the real flight as close as possible using his flight plan and altitude of the following ROCKY4 STL J8 SGF J98 IRW J74 PKE J104 TNP PDZ4flt level 38000my weight was 594.4 including fuel at takeoff following the proper procedures i departed KIND, engaged the FMC passing through 5000 and started my climb to 38000passing through 30000 it started to seriously lag in the climbthe aircraft looked and felt like it was fighting…

Gentlmen,I have flown EGLL - KLAX according to the Tutorial of Craig Read though I modified the second half of the flight plan for adapting to the CIVET 5 STAR of KLAX.PMDG is perfect and great! It's beautifl and there is no problem. Sincerely,Kan-ichiro FushiharaFSX, Windows Vista, E6600, TWIN2X2048-8500C5 2GB, 7800GTX

I just did a quick search on OOM and the posts still show up.Kylehttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/ng_driver.jpg

Hello,I could not find anything using the search function, so here is my question: Can the paintkit of the B744_FS9 be used for the B744_FSX? If not can we expect a release of the new PK soon?regardsTon

Anyone know the wauy that i could get the "keyboard options" page to appear in the PMDG drop down menu everything else is ok except that.Flies great - thanks PMDG.Denis Brown

I put this question to all experienced users...I am considering installing WinXP on my new system.I currently have Vista - it works well enough in FS9 and everything else... It will always run for days if I let it!FSX is another story...Always crashes to desktop... in minutes - never fails to disappointOOM errors or nothing stated.I can use some default aircraft without issues. not always, and never will it go on for any extended period of time.My question is;If I install/use WinXP will the issues associated with Vista go away?I am sick and tired of trying to find some fix... I have applied the Virtual memory stuff.. and all that stuff... ultimately... same things occur.R…

Gentlmen,Sometimes S/C point on the ND has been floating at about 28nm distance and the plane doesn't reach to the point!Sincerely,Kan-ichiro Fushihara

The PMDG has an interest in your customers well informed mater?We could have some news?What prevents the launch?Just like me, thousands of users want to hear the answers.Will NogueiraFs 2004

Cargo nose door will not open...I assigned shift-n. When I push it nothing happens. Am I missing something? Some of the other keys are working so far.Dave

Hi,Just removed PMDG Queen of the skies 747 and attempted to re-install and after inputting key it says "installation cannot continue. You do not have flight sim installed"Have just ran REGCURE to sought my registry out and feel this could be a factor. I have recently changed my drive letter on my portable HD where FS9 is installed yet most programs allow you to manually find FS9, tried changing HD letter back still the same prob. Has anyone encountered similar reg probs and possibly have any advice?CheersJames

Please help - unless I engage the autothrottle as the very first thing (PMDG 737)it wouldn't engage !!!I do switch the YAW DAMPER 'ON' but once I try to engage the autothrottle it goes to off again !!! What am I doing wrong ?What am I missing, I havn't come across this in any of the PMDG Manual.Victor Delceppo

Would you be able to use the airstairs on the 747-400 passenger version on fsx

Hello, The Pmdg 747 was flying ok on Fsx and Windows XP, but now, with a move on Windows VISTA 64, I can't install the 747 anymore.Fsx is intalled on another Hd, Uac disabled, admin right user.The installer stop when installing PMDG_CA_Disconnect11.wav, and a window appear, named "Feature Tranfer Error".If I click Ok, the installshield wizard stop the process.

Hi folks. I have been tearing my hair out trying to figure this out. For some reason all of the sudden I can't get the FMC to recognize newly created flight plans. Here are the steps I have used.1. Create a flight plan in FS9 and save it as example KPHXKABQ.2. Drop the flight plan into the pln to rte converter.3. Take the new rte plan and place it in the PMDG flight plan folder with all the others I have created in the past.4. Go back into FS9 and load the flight.5. Get power in the aircraft, APU,etc.6. Open FMC and put intial start point. In this case KPHX.7. On the next page where it says Company Route in type KPHXKABQ then press the side button to enter it. This is whe…

Hi there. Does anybody knows why everytime I load FSX my new PMDG 744X aircraft engines are always on fire?I usually have to re-select the same aircraft again from the drop down menu for it to work. (very annoying).I have upgraded the program but that didn't fix it.Thanks for your help.Kaue.

Hi! Does somebody have the same problem as me when locked to FSNav with the AP.In climb and descent all goes perfect but in horizontal flight it starts to move in a "porpoise" behavior going up and down.It stops when I reload the plane, sometimes, not always.Is there a fix for these awesome behavior?Thanks!

Hi all,To make use of a second pc, I switched to using FSX.On the biggest pc I host a session, using the pmdg 747X.On the other pc I join the session, and join the aircraft.The on the second pc I switch to 2D cockpit.The PFD and other panels work on the second pc, but the FMC an AP functions are neither updated, nor can I do any settings on the other pc.(For instance; on the primary pc I get the set IRS input boxes displayed and lsk'ing the gps data works. On the second pc I only get the set IRS position prompt, but not the line with boxes indicating that I can enter the values. But also setting fot instance altitude or speed on the autopilot panel does not work on the se…

Hi All,Just curious if it is possible to use custom 2D side views from FS9 version in FSX. I'm not using VC!
