PMDG's new project looks like a concept that will be very popular among the thousands of flight simmers all over the world. Simultaneously, a fresh software development group is developing a concept they've named Gates.to/FSNet. Gates.to allows two (or more) simmers to control the same aircraft. In other words, one can be the captain and the second can be the co-pilot. The software is allready published as a beta version, and it works pretty well. The unfortunate is that all buttons and complicated functions are not synchronized properly. If one of the players are setting up the FMC, the other player will not see what he have done. But if he starts an enginge on a default…

Hi!I am just wondering if there is possible to pick out airways on the B 737 NG`S FMC, and from there delete waypoints that is not suitable for the route. On longer trips it is sometimes difficult to get an overview of which waypoints to choose along the route. On other FMC I`ve seen pages which have possible airways to choose among. Is this also an option on this aicrafts FMC?With regards,Jan Ove Larssen

Hey Guys and Girls:I'm trying to do a repaint on the 1900C and ran into a little quirk.In the repaint kit PMDG_1900C_fuse_t file there are additional componants to paint on the right side of the screen all on the level named 'Details'. They include the nosegear door and main gear doors. I've had no problem with painting either of these but the level also includes the antenna top and wiper post both of which end up on the front top of the fuselage. No matter what I do I can't seem to get either of them painted and they both end up white in the repaint. I checked the other liveries available for the 1900C, and they all appear to have the same problem. Does anyone know of a …

Hi,Just downloaded the 737-800/900 addon.How do I get the full cockpit views like on the PMDG Website screenshots of this product ? Like the one in the manualk where they are discussing dome lighting etc.Do I need Active Camera for this ? I was undeer the impression that active camera was for cabin views but maybe this too ?ThanksBen

Hi,Is there any way to alter runway headings in FS so that they align properly with the actual(ie. real life) ILS final approach course? In some(many?) cases the runway heading is off by 1 or more degrees. As an example, Rwy 27R at EGLL is 273 degrees on the approach chart, 275 degrees in FS. While this does not prevent the aircraft tracking the runway centerline in VOR LOC or APP mode, since the localizer will be correctly aligned(with the 275 deg heading, in the example), there is a

Dear Beta tester,Do PMDG744 support for flexwings?B/Regards...Alex Ooi

This one has me stumped. *:-* Within the last few days I've lost my ILS access. I re-installed the new AIRACs this afternoon and still no NAV gear will light up in FS9. I can't get any action from FS9's legacy airplanes either - so it's likely something systemic. Don't know 'cause frequencies are correct, etc.Has anyone had this issue recently and have a solution? :-violin

Hi,I am newbies to pmdg and using Fred tutorial as a start and got the following questions:1. Section 'Engine Start and Taxi'. - Watch the EICAS display as the N2 increases. At 20% N2, open up the throttle panel, count 4 seconds, and then switch the right side Fuel Cutoff switch to on.Q: My EFIS style is'PFD/ND' which only shows N1 and EGT, how could i check N2.2. Section 'Takeoff'- The first text box instructs me 'At 1000 feet, engage the autopilot'Q: Which autopilot it refers to?- In the third bullet points, it instructs 'Once you pass 250 AGL, as indicated by PFD radar altimeter going blank, engage CMD A pilot.Q: So actually i engage autopilot at 1000 or 2500?Thanks,Th…

I recently tried contacting you regarding a lost product (737 NG). I used 3 different email accounts, plus the "contact us" on your webpage. I know you all are very busy, but I was wondering if you recieved any of the emails. I realize you are using anti-spamming technology. Anyway my email address is [email protected] or [email protected] (oschadha is the correct one, not schadha) don't know why it does that

Recently I noticed that there is a boxed version of the -800/900 that does not require the -600/700 be installed/purchased first. After looking at the PMDG site I did not find a way/link to purchase the download version of the -8/9 without first needing to purchase the -6/7. Is a stand alone version of the -8/9 available for download? If not will one be made available soon? Thanks, Matt

Here is a progress check on my repaint of the Maryland One colors for Southwest Airlines.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/120103.jpg

My PMDG 737-800 version (only this version - -600 -700 -900 are OK) has something wrong with descending. You cannot descent without speed-brakes below 10000ft. Otherwise you reach OVERSPEED. I was talking about this with real pilot of LAUDA Air, he told me that it should be properly (as in -600 -700 -900 versions), only if you start to descent too late then you have to use speed brakes, but normally tou don't have to. The problem occurs also with getting into the Gear down speed, still the tape stands at 220knots even with auto-brakes and you are unable to lower the velocity. Please help me with it, could you tell me if you have also thjis problem, I like proper (as in re…

Hello PMDG,I just wondered who it was that is painting the liveries for the Queen? So far they seem to look fabulous :DAlso,Is it possible for you to give us an idea of what liveries will be released on the day of release? I think many of us are counting on their favourite airlines being released for their maiden voyage?Thanks :)
