I feel like this is a basic question but I cannot figure out or find the answer...In the 737NG, where can I set radials for the VOR? Bob

Hi all,I'm running the latest version of the pax queen. However I notice that on just about every "real" flight (full fmc route etc, not just circuits), I get a windows message some time before takeoff saying that i'm low on virtual memory. That happens with or without scenery.Why is it that the displays do not "blink" whne power sources are changed? Is this how the real plane behaves, or just something PMDG has not implemented?Windows XP home SP23.2Ghz, 1.25GB RAMGeforce 6800Ultra 256MBMy pagefile max and min are 768 and 384 MBAny Ideas?

Hello Gentlemen,Sometime ago during a flight I found that the IDG drive switches could not be reset once they were pressed. As I understand it, in the real 747 when one of these switches are deactivated for any reason, ground crew personnel must inspect and reset the drives.On page 12 of the 747 Queen of The Skies manual it is clearly explained how to reset the IDG switches. The problem is that the IDGs do not reset as explained in the manual. I also noticed that within the PMDG/options/various menu directory the reset button for the IDGs is labeled EDG. When I push the EDG button my IDG switches will not reset.Please understand that I am NOT complaining. I can stir …

Hey, i dont want be perfect, but most of the liveries for the 744F,For example Cathay Pacific with the registration B-HUP this specific A/C was delivered with the Line Number 12** this means that till the Line Number 13** no 744F had the ISDF yet replacing the analouge standby gauge. And a Major error was made with the NCA 744F the Reg. on the plane is JA0IKZ but the real reg. is JA01KZ so you replaced 1 with I.I have made a list for the correct Regitrations for the oprators having newer 744`sFor Asiana HL7604 as the new reg.Atlas Air has no Ln 13** so that one is ok.China Southern correct reg. would be B-2473For China Airlines you put a reg. that is no longer operated by…

Upon loading my 737 PMDG Next Generation -700 program, the FMC is completely blank. The keys no longer respond at all, but only on the FMC. What could be the problem, and the fixes?

HiEverything works fine up until the point that I send the ActiveSky weather to FS (either in offline mode, or via ActiveSky graphics)Once I send weather over to FS I lose all sounds associated with the switches inside this red box only and all sounds associated with those switches (eg if I hit the APU start switch, not only do I not hear the switch sound I don

Anyone having the same problem?:All the displays are going out after about 30 sec. Please help me!!!

I just saw this topic about three days ago about someone who would land and then their tanks are automatically refueled. I've never had this problem until I flew from Sydney to Honolulu today. What was the solution to the problem?Thanks,Ryan Gamurothttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/supporter.jpg

Hey all. I know some of you are going to hate me for asking this, specially Robert and his crew (given all the trouble they went through to give us the new engine models). However, I'd like to know whether it is possible for me to fly all 747s I have in all their splendorous liveries with the GE engine model. The reason I ask is that I am not familiar with the way RR and PW display their engine data (EPR vs. N1) and thus I get all lost. Furthermore it creates a huge problem for my takeoff calculations since I use TOPCAT for that, and this wonderful little program was engineered to worlk solely with the GE engines.I also have a couple more questions: Was the sound updated …

Hi AllDoes anyone know where they can be found?ThanksClive

I got to 2200 ft tonight on my first flight in the pax since the F addon and subsequent patch. At Fl220 the cabin pressurization went slap open and the plane understandbly went haywire. This is the second time this has happened. The first was at FL420 over the north end of Alaska about my third flight with the Queen when you first released her a year or so ago. I have never flown at FL420 since! What is wrong here? The valves were set to auto and the checklist were followed.Wilson HinesMy Blog: http://www.wilsonhines.com --------------------------------------http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/747400.jpghttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/pmdg_744F…

Good afternoon,after installing the 744 Lufthansa livery over a clean install of the 744 V1.10, there is no more PMDG entry in the "Select Plane" window. When I try to load the Dark and Cold Cockpit situation in KPAE, I get an aircraft initialization error message.What did happen?Thanks in advance and best regards,Chris.

After installing latest IVAP version all my gauges in pmdg are dissapeared. The screens and everything are black. I think it has something to do with FSUIPS or am I wrong ? Regards, jochem

When I am descending in the Queen from cruise in VNAV PTH to a wp directly ahead at a lower altitude where a HOLD has been programmed, should the MCP ALT window setting match the HOLD altitude? Or can the MCP ALT be lower than the HOLD and still level the a/c off properly when arriving at the wp HOLD?Is it acceptable to fly the HOLD itself in VNAV or is some other vertical mode preferred as a matter of safe operating procedure?Jonathan

Folks,Culd use some help here. I'm trying to setup my USB CH Products yoke to work with the 737 and 744. Can anyone share with me their settings (sensitivity, null zone, etc) for these aircraft?I find myself twitiching all over the place right now when using the yoke...Thanks!

It occurs to me that when I login to fly online the vor pointers andthe navaid identifier dissapear from the ND. Subsequently it is alsoimpossible to see a radial on the ND. I only get a DME reading andthe vor frequency on the ND. I can fly a complete tour by using the flightplan computed by theFMC and I even get a normal ILS capture and autoland. Only the vor navigation is impossible. Sometimes it happens that the vor navigation starts to work after, for example, 20 minutes.In the FMC position init page I always make sure that the lastposition equals the current position.I always start with engines running and sometimes align theIRS systems.Flying online is done by using…

Hi guys,A check on the forum did not help me much ;-) Every I switch on all the packs after T/O this eicas messages pops up...and remain: Pack 3 OFF.I took a "fresh" AC but it still remains ...any ideas?regardsTon

I am referring to the Tutorial Flight that PMDG has included in the PMDG 737 800/900

I have install 744F update 1 and I found out that the logo light blinks when I turn on the beacon light. and this was happening right after I install the 744F.I did not install any other effects.

I have followed one of the threads on how to save a flight plan once it is created but haven't been able to find a way to find it again when I next fly?Can someone advise please how to access the stored plan.Thanks,Jamie

Hi all,I just want to be sure I understand this correctly. I understand that the updates in the 747-400F will be implimented in the 747-400 based version. But are items 1 throught 63 also implimented into the 747-400 based version as well as items 1 through 22 listed below? Or is it just items 1 through 22 that will be implimented in the 747-400 base version?Ken.

Hi everyone,I'm eager to know if there is an update coming soon for the 737NG. i would really like to see it have a fully functional irs and maybe some more lighting options to compliment the already great prduct that it is.Cheers,Nick Rowan

SupportI wrote you an email concerning my problem with undocking PMDG panels after installing the 744F. I just rechecked all my other aircraft LevelD/ PSS / SSTSIM / and they all work fine as usual, Didn't have a problem with PMDG 747PAX either untill installing the Freighter. It's not my system, no system changes, only change is the Freighter. If I select and load up any aircraft first, then select and load a PMDG aircraft, then the PMDG will be fine. However that wasn't necessary before I installed the Freighter. I want to uninstall all PMDG aircraft including the 737 and then just reinstall the 744 PAX with house liveries. I would imagine I should start with the Freigh…

Is anyone up for this challenge?http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.sear...DESC&nr_pages=3A buddy of mine asked me but I don't have that talent yet...

Anybody working on a Lufthansa Cargo. I do realize they dont have any 400F but it would be nice to have one anyway.
