<p>
	Hi all,
</p>

<p>
	I've installed 737-600/700/800/900 with model update.
</p>

<p>
	I have a panel state issue upon initial load into FS9 with all liveries. Everything works fine except for the logo light not working. i.e. The tail logo doesn't light up.
</p>

<p>
	However, if I load the default 737-700 cold and dark flight from select a flight, go through the checklists to power up using either APU or Ground Power; this then fixes the issue of the logo light not working, including on all liveries (i.e. without exiting FS9, creating a new flight).
</p>

<p>
	Is there a way for me to save the panel state for the 737? Thank you in advance for any help on this.
</p>

<p>
	<strong>EDIT: Resolved (solution below)</strong>
</p>

<p>
	Found out that you cannot save the panel state for the 737 series. PMDG Source. So I've found a temporary solution for myself. I'll write it here for others if they have this issue and want to resolve it too ...
</p>

<p>
	1) Load FS9
</p>

<p>
	2) Choose "Select a Flight"
</p>

<p>
	3) In the list choose PMDG &gt; 737-700 cold and dark
</p>

<p>
	4) Once the flight has loaded (the aircraft will be in a default cold and dark state) ...
</p>

<p>
	Press the <strong>alt key</strong> &gt; World &gt; Go to Airport ... load an airport you want to start at usually (call it your home airport) ... don't bother changing the time once you are at your home airport in a cold and dark state (as you will probably always change this anyway).
</p>

<p>
	5) Once loaded at your home airport, go through the checklist in the aircraft to a panel state you are comfortable with in starting at in every flight; i.e. a panel state where you are at a point in the checklist you are comfortable at starting at for every flight you do.
</p>

<p>
	For me I went through the checklist up until FMC entries prior to PUSHBACK &amp; START. However I have to change or update the following:
</p>

<p>
	a. OVHD &gt; Set cruise altitude and destination airport elevation<br />
	b. OVHD &gt; Fuel pumps check (dependant on fuel load)<br />
	c. OVHD &gt; Start APU or select Ground Power (checking of electrical systems)<br />
	d. OVHD &gt; APU bleed switch ON/OFF (for starting engines)<br />
	e. OVHD &gt; double check YAW is set to ON<br />
	e. MCP &gt; Course, Heading (runway), initial ATC altitude cleared to, VNAV, LNAV, double check AUTOBRAKE setting RTO, initial Speed, Flight Director ON etc ...<br />
	f. Then continue checklist's from FMC entries, then PUSHBACK and Engine Start.
</p>

<p>
	6) Save the flight (press alt key &gt; Flight &gt; Save as ... Name it PMDG 737 Custom start &gt; tick the box "make default flight".
</p>

<p>
	7) Now everytime you load FS9 to do a flight, it will load the above default state for the PMDG 737.
</p>

<p>
	<span>Once FS9 has loaded, you <strong>MUST</strong> click <strong>Fly Now</strong> so it loads the flight above. </span>
</p>

<p>
	<span>Once loaded, you can then create a new flight as you would normally, noting that you have to start from the following checklist (as mentioned in step 5 above).</span>
</p>

<p>
	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	I have the aircraft Boeing 737 NG installed with FS 2004.
</p>

<p>
	The FMC-Database works with AIRAC CIRCLE "0411". In this database the airport "EDDL" with SID/STARS does not exist.
</p>

<p>
	I'd like to operate the aircraftcraft  with the book "PMDG-YOU HAVE CONTROL" of Tim Rommen. This tutorial is based on AIRAC CIRCLE "0711".
</p>

<p>
	1. How can I get the data of EDDL into the database of FMC?
</p>

<p>
	2. Wherefrom can I maybe receive AIRACCircle "0711", which works with the book mentioned above?
</p>

<p>

<p>
	Peter

<p>
	Hi,
</p>

<p>
	I fly with the 737-800 on FS9 (old version) and the problem is when i try to make an ILS-approach, the plane stays on the right hand side of the runway and the localiser-dot stays on the left hand side instead in the middle when the autopilot is still not disengaged. What can i do to resolf this problem and really land the airplane? Here you can see an impression of the problem:

<p>Hey!</p>
<p>I'm new here for PMDG.</p>
<p>A few days ago I have installed the PMDG B737-600NG in my FS9 system, and I added the Brussels Airlines version as well.</p>
<p>I have seen, I know, many postings exist already here about opening doors, and also about extending and retracting the airstair. I've think especially with the stairs it does not Always work wel....</p>
<p>The doors, that is no problem in my FS9 system. They work well with Sift + E ( and number 2 also )</p>
<p>But, I've changed the assignements for the stairs to Ctrl + F10 to extend, and Ctrl + F9 for retracting. None works!...</p>
<p>Is there somewhere a clear explanation for how to make the stairs work? With sureness?</p>
<p>Greetz</p>

<p>Hello all,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I do not really know whether or not I am in the right place here.  I do not own any PMDG products at all. I further do not know if the request to follow is even legal but....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am very much aware that PMDG no longer sells or distributes the 737 for FS2004 but I was wondering if it I am able to buy a copy from someone who is no longer using it.  I would also like to "inherit"  the reinstallation/download rights as I live in Indonesia and constant power cuts have an incredible impact on my Win 7 OS and all my flight sim programmes (I have to do full reinstalls at least 3 times a year and sometimes on a monthly basis (during the wet season))</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Again, I have no idea if this is a reasonable and/or legal request but if anyone can help me, please give me a price for the product.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I sincerely apologise if I have stood on anyones toes or if I have upset anybody here.  This is/was not my intention.  Further apologies if I am in the wrong place for this topic.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Regards to all</p>

<p>I have the PMDG Legacy FS9 version of the B737-600 and -700 as well as the expansion -800 and -900. Bought them back in 2009 I believe.<br /><br />The -600 and -700 use the -700 panels (-600 aliases to either -700 2D or -700 VC panel) and the -800 and -900 use the -800 panels, likewise aliased in the -900 to the -800 2D or VC panel.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When using the -700 panel.vc there is a Baltimore Approach plate that displays in the VC cockpit of either the -600 or the -700.  There is a bitmap in each texture folder that includes instructions on how to change the approach plate by creating a new bitmap image.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Although there is also an approach plate bitmap (with instructions on how to change the plate) in the -800 and -900 texture folders, the approach plate never displays in the either VC cockpit when panel.vc is selected as the active panel.  Only a clipboard where the approach plate would be clipped.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I know it's an old bird and support is no longer active for it, but I'm curious if anyone has working approach plates visible in the -800 or -900 aircraft?</p>

<p>Hi.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Can anyone say why, when I load a PMDG 737 a/c, most of my FS9 keyboard commands don't work? 'P' no longer pauses or unpauses the sim, 'S' no longer scrolls through the views and so on -  the sim is to all intents and purposes locked up. If I load a different plane, FS9 or 3rd. party (eg. a PSS Airbus), the keyboard works as normal. Try the 737 again, and the problem returns.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Help appreciated. Thanks,</p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have been merging the PMDG panel into my other 3rd. party 737NGs and so far everything works fine.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>However, I tend to get the green "<span><em>CG</em> not within tolerance.. Aircraft unflyable" notice" on the screen when I start the take-off roll with some aircraft. The CG shows fine in the Fuel &amp; payload window and in practice the a/c taxis, takes off and flies just fine - no handling problems at all.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>So, how do I turn off this warning? I don't see anything in PMDG options. </span>I can right-click the 'banner' and choose 'close this window', but I'd prefer not to see it at all, at least for the time being. Is this possible somehow?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I don't use FsP by the way...</p>
