Good afternoon. I have a problem and do not know how to resolve it. Hopefully a someone can beof some assitance. I am the proud owner of 3 boxed versions of FSX PMDG (The 737 NGX, 777-200 and J41). I’m trying to obtain the latest updates from Aerosoft for the737 and 777but the downloads keeps on failing with an error "Time out..please refresh the Page..!”. This goes on until the error "Der eingegebenne Key ist NICHT korrekt!" occurs. Aerosoft then resets the accoun(s) and the whole thing starts all over again. Aerosoft keeps on putting the blame on me. I’ve tried using difrent browsers to download the updates from hoeme and from work but it always ends the sa…

Hello First sorry for my bad english ! I got a little Problem with my PMDG´s for FSX. (737 and 777) At the time i try to build a homecockpit and in this way i used FSUIPC Logging Monitor to check the Commands i sent to FSX.... I see that there is a strange action all the time.... When i load a PMDG plane the FSUIPC Logging file for "Reads" show me that "something" alway read the offset 7B91. Thats a Offset for the Squawkbox Status. On FSY StandardPlanes like cessna or 737Standard theres no Read on 7b91 At first i thought thats done by a external Addon . (Google says for example "Squwakbox" uses this to comunicate with online Networks). BUT I …

Captains- Tonight I am going to solve two mysteries with one forum post... For the past couple of years, we have mentioned that we are working on our first product for XPlane, but that the product was being developed slowly, as a sandbox exercise so that PMDG's Xplane Development Team could learn to work with, and adapt our existing capabilities to make them function well in the popular Xplane flight simulator by Laminar Research. We have told you repeatedly that we were going to "keep this one in close hold" while we worked through the development and learning process, so as to give the development team the freedom they need to really dig deep and learn what is…

Good morning, I am a very passionate flight sim enthusiast and I have spent a lot of time and money into making my hobby both enjoyable and as realistic as possible by taking advantage of some of the amazing array of high quality products for the various flight simulators. I started on FS9 and then moved onto FSX followed by FSX SE. I also invested in a quality Flight Sim PC from Chillblast, unfortunately like so many others I have suffered dearly at the hands of FSX's instability and after extensive research I have now purchased Prepar3d which has allowed me to have the confidence to fly without the problems of OOM/CTD errors. I have throughout my flight sim years stuck …

Hello you PMDG admirers, I have been flying the PMDG NGX and T7 for quite sometime now and I only recently noticed that in both a/c's I am not hearing the outer and/or inner markers blibs. Is it something I have to alter or set in the FMC or something else. Look forward hearing from someone soon and for which I thank you in advance. Regards Dirk

Hi! I´m a little bit confused about choosing the right autobrake for landing. Can you tell me which autobrake settings real world pilots using during normal landings etc? Normally i take these settings: 777-300ER: FLAPS 30 - AB 2 737-800 : FLAPS 30 - AB 2 Maybe someone can tell me the right Landing settings for this aircrafts. Thank you.

lets be honest PMDG is one of the most highly detail aircraft developer for flight simulation that creates high fidelity aircraft. of course because of that many people want to try it out. but there are some people(like me)who have the money, yet doesn't have the tool to buy your products(credit cards, paypal acounts), like people averaging from the age of 14-19 who have save their allowance but they cant buy it because they have no paypall acount. nor their parents wont let them to use their credit cards. now if PMDG sell their product on steam it will open access to many potential buyers. Now people can just buy steam voucher in the nearest store with our currency a…

Hello! The information I have been reading until now regarding the navaids, the FMC, Navigraph etc. got me a little confused. I understand that the FMC data of the PMDG aircraft can be updated from Navigraph, and up-to-date navigation charts can be used thanks to that fact, but the question is whether the aircraft use any of the stock navaids in FSX/P3D, like VORs, NDBs, ILS etc. Suppose any of those navaids has been changed (updated frequency, position) in the updated FMC. The simulator database hasn't been changed since 2006 (as far as I know). Won't there be any conflicts? Are there any workarounds that you guys usually use in this case? Some say that t…

I tried out the ASN's trail and I was amazed of it's performance and use. I just want to ask you guys, if I pay on simMarket for it, I get the serial through my email? (I just want to make sure that no deliveries or anything like that is required and as soon as I give the money, it's mine.) I didn't think it's worth contanting the support for that. Thanks in advance.

Captains, As previously announced, PMDG Simulations will be opening a PMDG Simulation Center near our headquarters just outside of Washington, DC. We anticipate the center taking delivery of it's first simulator about mid-year 2016, with the first customer flight sessions to take place shortly thereafter. Some of you have seen images of our simulator test article, which has been built by Flight Deck Solutions of Ontario, Canada. This simulator has been complete for some time, and has been actively in use remotely while we test out a massive amount of new software capability that we have had to design in order to run the simulator in a top-notch fashion. We h…

Hi Just a quick question, will the base pack of the upcoming PMDG 747 v2 include the 747-400 model? Thanks.

As we wait for news on the Queen II, I came across this unique film. There are, of course, numerous 744 related documentaries to be found on YouTube, but this is the first I have seen that covers a D-check in this kind of detail. The commentary is intelligently done by a pair of mechanical engineers. Have fun! https://youtu.be/x_yHtfGH0nI Andrew Jones

Back in the summer of 2014 Ryan commented on the purchase of a new 780 GTX card and that he would post his findings on what was working. Would the PMDG Dev Team consider posting how they setup NI and DX10 Fixer when flying their fleet? Thanks, S. Robinson

All, I am flying FS9 and trying to locate and purchase the FS9 freighter version for the Queen of the Skies. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you, Scott Clawson Indianapolis, Indiana

Hi! I downloaded the new installers for my 777LR and 777-300ER and uninstalled the previous versions completely. After that installed both products with the new installers. I´ve got non transparent windows on both products now. I can´t see through the windows, can´t see the cabin interior etc. I thought that something is wrong with my liveries but the problem is still there with the default PMDG livery. Can someone help me? Is there a way to fix this Problem?

Hello all! I'm still not sure whether this is the right place to report this but here it is. I recently is re-evaluating moving to P3D and would like to check out PMDG products but have found out the website is not available, and to be honest it's not accessible since I moved to my current address in Indianna. When I enter the website the error page reads that remote connection has been rejected. I hope PMDG crew has more information to share especially since I've already purchased T7 for FSX and may need support just in case. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

So I searched and could not find any other example of this. Perhaps its just me. Its the same in NGX. I am using P3D V3.1 but I have seen this in all versions as I recall. Is this known and if so is there a fix? I also see that windows go black in clouds apparently not with the T7 but I recall black windows on NGX in clouds

Have installed P3D v3.1 after previously uninstalling all PMDG products and P3D v3. P3D is working Ok but when trying to load either the B737 or B777 it results in a black screen and P3D freezes. The installation files are the latest which I downloaded from PMDG site. Grateful for any feedback.

Does anyone have ever experience the following: Whenever I taxi I always have smoke coming from landing gears! I make sure breaks are off and smoke trails are off. I'M at lost. Also when I switch from cockpit screen to VC cockpit , I lose capt. side FMC. Just go on the fritz!!!

Can I install my PMDG software to Steam. I have the 737 and 747. Thanks Stanford

Hi, Before I start this is quite minor but I thought you might be able to look into it as a developer if you happened to be home alone and the TV was broken. Potential Bug?: Whilst having to do a complete re-install (because windows decided to turn itself inside out) I was re-installing my PMDG aircraft into P3D v3.1 and using the operations centre (which I really like actually). I was adding my liveries in the 737 liveries section, selecting download, and queing them up for install. The process was working fine, while that was going on I thought I'll do the 777 liveries too so went to that page and the Operations centre crashed and I had to restart. Thought I…
