Any chance we can get Scimitar winglet option could even be added in the options part of the FMC.. Just too have the Scimitar Winglets on our current PMDG 737 fleet.. Please

What is the fastest way to remove only a speed restriction on a sid/star? Use the Delete key to wipe the line. Add the altitude restriction back? Can be time consuming with 3 or 4 legs to change. Hoping to find the fastest way to do this for saving times sake! Thanks - David Lee

X-Plane 11 is out, and with Microsoft no longer developing the FS platform; do you have any plans to make the products available for X-Plane? X-Plane seems to be the future now and they have really stepped up the game!!! Jeremy

I have the Queen of the skies MD-11 737NGX and BAE for FSX. Migrating to Prepar3d and wondering where I should dive back in with PMDG products for Prepar3D. Queen, 777, or 737? Thanks in advance

Hi guys, i just noticed something odd whenever i apply reverse thrust. It tends to engage everytime the nose wheel touches the ground. I always press R (which is my reversethrust key) whenever my main wheels touches but there is a delay. Is this a PMDG bug or is there something i missed on the settings?

Captains, Happy Saturday, everyone. Over the past year, we have been very quiet about our development status and our development agenda. This was a decision made with purpose because we have been adapting to having multiple, concurrent project development teams sharing development resources- and it requires a complete change in the way we approach project development and project management. To put it a bit more candidly, we opted not to set any expectations with you publicly because that reduces our flexibility to decide when and how to shift projects forward or backward in the agenda in order to meet our own worfklow needs. I know, I know.. Simmers are …

Hi, I had this problem before with the 747 and the 777. I do not remember what options in the PMDG setup menu I had to change. Can anybody help? Pierre

Captains, We spent all of last night and today researching to sort out what caused Prepar3D v4.0-4.3 users to suddenly find themselves unable to run the PMDG 747 QOTSII product line after our Saturday update to 3.00.9193. The short version of the story is that we updated our Prepar3D SDK compliance to v4.4 on Friday morning by accident- and this broke backward compatibility with the earlier minor versions in P3D v4. We have just pushed a new update (3.00.9195) which corrects this, and should restore full functionality to P3D v4.0-4.3 users. <phew!> It is important to note that this **shouldn't** have been a factor, as Lockheed Martin has indicat…

My radio and squawk remains 100.000 and 0000 respectively, and I am not able to tune it; it seems like locked.

Hello guys, I'm having a problem, while trying to update the product of PMDG (exactly B777). The problem is, when I open PMDG Operations Center, there is 1 notification. If I click on "Update", it seems to be updated and OK (picture with headphones and glasses with text - You have no notifications!). Then I close this PMDG OC. But - when I open it again, I see this one notification again and the product is still not updated anymore. I have tried solution like this ( https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/513150-ops-centre-wont-update/ ), and this ( https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/513142-20jun17-micro-update-pushed-for-prepar3d-777-200lrf-users/?…

Hi everyone I am trying to log into my PMDG Account as it has told me that I need to reset my password I follow the instructions and it then sends a link to my email address to click on The trouble is this isn't actually a link to click on ......it's just a line of text I therefore copy and paste this into my browser address bar and it duly takes me to the page to reset and confirm a new password This is where things go wrong ..... I type a new password in which includes a capital letter and numbers .... I confirm the password ... I click continue and it doesn't go any further! I've tried it a few times but the same thing keeps happening…

Hi guys! I would like to purchase PMDG product but trying to understand if PMDG have the BBJ on their fleet? if not, there's in option to get it on their's products?

Hi, just got this, anybody got a simple rote for the FMC, Boeing 737NGX from say new Hong Kong airport to do an approach into Kai Tek please, just for fun. Thanks

Ahhh...the bare metal livery....such a mystic look to produce....much time and effort goes into the "metal" look...painting on 2 separate paint channels, so in essence requiring the effort of at least 2 paints for one livery. But when you get it dialed in.....man does it make you want to stare at it! 🙂 (This is not dialed in yet....just the 1st look of my metal textures on our beloved Queen). Much work to do, but when its done (with heaped on servings of dirt and grime as we're used to seeing on our old freighters), its one I hope you'll guys will want to take to obscure corners of the world. 😉 Just had to post this glam shot with her in fight ov…

Do you need to register just to view the new PMDG forums? When I go to the home page on the forum website it says "No forums found". It says I may have to register to post but nothing about viewing. The FAQ page appears to be just a generic page for the forum software and not specific to any PMDG policies. Ted

I have 8 Cores and have this setting at 84 affinity mask and wondering if its set right --Thanks

Hey PMDG, I really would like to see a PMDG 767 next. And the 767 would open so many ways to other planes. So let me start. First of all. The first 767 ever built is already so old but the 767 is still in production. Even if the 767 is not the most efficient airliner, it´s a very important airliner for aviation. The 767 is used by so many airlines and is such a beautiful airplane and I think that this is the best airplane for PMDG to do next. If you have the 767-300ER as the base pack and the 767-200ER as an expansion pack it would already be great, but you have already modelled the 777 and there is the 767-400ER which has for 99 percent the same cockpit as the 777 so th…

Captains, In my post last week, I mentioned that we were planning to maintain this forum on AVSim for some time, in an effort to ease the transition from AVSim, a site we have supported and driven traffic toward for twenty years. All of the PMDG moderators have been dumped from moderator status, thus making it impossible for us to do as we promised. For this, I apologize. We invite you to visit with us at our new home: http://forum.pmdg.com I would ask that those who frequent here please help us to point others in that direction- as I will likely not ask the PMDG team to frequent this location so as to not upset the AVSim moderators. I would hav…

In the PMDG 737-800, I'm flying the HAWKZ7 Star with a LMT transition to the ILS34L with PONDR transition approach into KSEA. I get an FMC message almost immediately after takeoff that says "NO DES PATH AFTER GOALZ". When I check the Legs pages I don't see a problem. All of the proper way points are there and they all seem to have correct and achievable altitude guidance and restrictions and no discontinuities. Why am I getting this FMC message?

I have the highmemfix=1 in graphics section. Do 10 preview is off. I have a gtx 1070 8gb videocard with Radeon 7 2700x 3.7ghz processor. I get transparent outside. I have had aircraft with no wheels. Very strange behavior. When I go to change aircraft I get black. Know idea what could be the issue.

@kevinh and everybody: I think it's better to discuss this in a seperate thread. Let me give the following answers. > PMDG only added the additional rule of requiring full real names. Partly to help track illegal users ... I'm not a criminal. Only because there are some criminals I don't want to be treated as a criminal or a potential criminal. For the same reason I don't want to have spy-software on my computer like Lefteris Kalamares tried to establish as ethical. And I'm not hiding behind a nickname. I just keep my right to decide for myself who may know my name and who not. If you are sitting in the subway would you wear a big board with your name? Your fu…

I'm having some computer problems and considering selecting the Fresh Start option to install an up-to-date installation of Windows 10. Before I do, I want to make sure that I'm not going to shoot myself in the foot with any installs of my PMDG products. Or, at least be prepared to do a full reinstall. Any thoughts or suggestions before I pull the trigger? Thanks! Rich Boll

I am trying to get to grips with using RNAV approaches, so will appreciate any corrections/feedback to my current understanding: Selecting an RNAV approach provides only GPS quality (equivalent to category 1 ILS) LNAV. As opposed to ILS VNAV/LNAV, current PMDG aircraft have no knowledge of WAAS signal receivers. The PMDG GPS system is 'perfect' enough anyway! RNAV approaches currently do not support vertical guidance, so no LPV (localizer performance with vertical guidance) approaches are supported. Vertical guidance whilst flying an RNAV approach is given only by setting QNH for the airport. So autoland is not supported. The pilot must use…
