    Hello, Is there a way to change the maximum weights and passengers configurations? The different 737-700/800 I fly nearly all have differents weights limitations: - Maximum Taxi Weight- Maximum Takeoff Weight- Maximum Landing Weight- Maximum Zero Fuel Weight Also, it seems the maximum passenger configuration is blocked at Y187 but I would like to set it at Y189... and the minimum is set at 7 (crew?) but sometimes I need to operate ferry flights with a crew 2/0. And by the way, thanks for this amazing product! Kind regards,

    I managed to start the engines and keep them running with all fuel pumps off. Is this normal?

    Having some trouble with the Saitek throttle and the NGX. It seems that when in the air, the throttle wants to idle at 35-40% N1, which is higher than it should. I'm sure that this is related to hardware as when I look at the VC throttle, when I pull it back to idle it stays there for a brief moment then all on it's own climbs back to 35%. The same goes for the upper limit of the throttle range. I've of course tried configuring the throttle through both FSUIPC and FSX, as well as setting up small deadzones at either end of the range. I've also noticed that the movement of the throttles don't match FS at all, ie. 40% N1 in FS relates to about 15% on the physical throttle. …

    I have had this like 3 times now.... I push back from the gate and the brakes dont work at all. The flight sim says Brakes/Diff Braking, Parking Brake so I know its getting my input from my stick but plane wont stop. I can differential brake everything. Every time this happens the brake temps are always at 0.0 and doesnt seem to matter carbon or steel.

    I just completed my first flight with the NGX. Very impressive. I had absolutely no glitches or hangs. Everything worked as advertised. The sounds are amazing and really add to the immersion factor. Well done,PMDG.

    I started up the sim with the NGX short panel state, APU running etc. I left it and came back about 15-20 mins later, and all 12 of the master caution warning lights were on (6 on each side), and the master caution was illuminated. But pushing it didn't clear the warnings like it usually does (although it extinguished the main light). I tried starting the engines, cycling the battery/standby power, but I couldn't figure out how to clear them. Pretty sure that no failures were active either. Any ideas what can cause this?

    So, as my last topic has been deleted, I repost. People must to know that until the end PMDG doesn't take us seriously. The entire discution : Us : I would need to speak ENGLISH, with the C++ Gauge dll developer, and possibly the 3D modeller who writes the XML in the model.It will be a highly technical conversation.Sorry, I do not have the time to go into details with those who are not able to view the C++ source, or the animation XML. It would be a waste of everyone's time. us : EmvaosI am a professional programmer, and have also been involed inFS for many years.There are multiple issues.Here is a simple one, and its a CLASSIC.Spoiler changes are sent over MP as KE…

  11. Not sure what's up, but when I have landing lights turned on while in the VC during early dusk (haven't checked night flying) I don't see any illumination in front of the plane. When I switch to 2D or unobtructed front view, I see them where they normally would be. Is that a bug or what's up on this issue? Don't have any other planes that do this. Couldn't find anything w/ a quickish scan of most of the documentation. Thanks for an awesome plane! Noel

    Hello PMDG, I have been enjoying the NGX greatly, but I am experiencing major issues with the FDx. I have been unable to climb correctly since purchasing it. I get to around 9000 feet and the plane begins to reduce the nose angle, yet achieve the same or higher climb rate. It ends up at -2 degrees pitch, climbing at 500 feet per minute. I have included a picture to show my configuration, and despite a fuel imbalance (which was not the issue, this has happened with normal fuel). The aircraft tops out at around 24000 feet, and then does not feel as though it has enough thrust to continue climbing. I posted in the forums and they said that it was noticed in the beta, but was…

  21. First off, brilliant model PMDG thank you very much to all contributors!! So far I have been able to land manually with ILS dialed in on more than one occasion, but whenever I try to land using Auto-Pilot and align with the ILS the application freezes with the dreaded circling arrow - then inevitably, CTD. I thought at first it was my FSX.configuration. So I mucked around with USEPOOLS = 1 or USEPOOLS = 0 and set the frame rates from fixed at 25 FPS to unlimited. Initially this looked good and I experienced fluid movement, but the moment I intercepted the LOC I noticed the average frame rates dropped from around 30 to around 14 , then when on final before it was necessar…
