PMDG 747 Queen of the Skies II

Title says it all, really. When shutting the engines down at any time the gauges all show decreasing RPMs, lowering oil pressure, etc, etc. However the engine sound continues, and any app dependent on engine shut-down fails to action. Any practical advice appreciated.

Hello everyone, Im pretty new around here and I hope my question will not sound too dumb. I recently had a 747 v3 and I handle it as best as I can but I have an issue with my FMC i configured it normally with my route, departure airport arrival airport runways ... but my aircraft at one stage let say I'm level FL15 at waypoint A , and need to descend level FL10 at waypoint, well my aircraft will stay stuck at level FL15 but the speeds chance lets say i'm 250 at WP A and asked for 220 at WP B it will change. I dont know what I configured incorrectly. If you guys have any idea dont hesitate to let me know. Cheers Cl…

I have flown the PMDG QOTSII Qantas ER version many times on the Johannesburg-Sydney route. After a break of a few months, I decided to fly it again. However, when I did my flight plan on Simbrief , I was informed I would have to reduce the load due to weight restrictions. I went ahead and imported that plan into P3D v5.4. When I set up the plane and loaded the flight plan, the FMC told me that I had insufficient fuel to complete the flight. What could have happened to change the parameters to something which is obviously wrong?. I cannot see anywhere to increase the fuel capacity. IRL, this route was flown for years.

Hi all I am trying to get PMDG P3D version of B747-400 to work. I downloaded and installed P3D V5 and restarted my computer. I then tried to install PMDG P3D version of B747-400 and it just comes up with a window asking ‘Search for App in the store’, if I select ‘Yes’ nothing is found and if I select ‘No’ then the installation exits. What am I doing wrong please?

If you're not paying attention to his mustache and sweater, and you can live with low-resolution display, then these might be useful tutorials about the 747-400 FMA and Systems. youtube 747-400 FMA and Systems PS. For me it was new, for you perhaps old stuff

Having been away from the B747-400 QOTS II for a while, I am now having a problem with the autopilot not working correctly and continually disconnecting. As an example I have just taken off, climbed manually to 6,000ft and am flying at 250 kts clean. I have VNAV connected and green, together with HDG SEL green, SPD green and FD green indicating. However, when I select any autopilot switch, the switch itself illuminates, but I get an amber horizontal line through the HDG SEL indication on the PFD. The autopilot immediately disconnects with an audible wailer sound. Similarly, if I route on a planned leg and have LNAV green indicating, the same thing happens again when…

Hello, so far I have been enjoying the 747-800 especially being able to pull up charts directly in the plane via the EFB. The issue I am having though is that each time I load the plane and go to the EFB and click on charts the Navigraph box comes up and I have to allow permissions again before it will work. Any ideas what might he causing this? It's not a big deal but it would be nice not to have the box come up everytime. Thanks

Everything works fine on my PMDG 747-4 on Prepar3D V4, except 2 things: The landing lights and taxi/turnoff lights do not illuminate on the runway/taxiway at all... The Captains PFD is not selectable to pop out to a bigger display... Anyone have any ideas how to fix those issues? Thank you in advance...

Dear all, I am getting message EFIS CONTROL R for already third flight. I did all I thought I should have done... No impact on flight controls. Anything I am doing wrong ? many thanks for reco ! JM

installation cannot continue. your registry does not show a valid fsx Registry editor I am getting an error despite using FSx Registry Repair Normally I have no problem using the pmdg 737 but I get an error when using the 747 fsx se I use

Hi everyone, I've been reading the FCOM that comes with the 747 and also some others I found online, but none of them include an explaination of the automatic anti-ice, it's just mentioned as an option. On smartcockpit I found something on the automatic Ice protection system, something about the number of sensors that need to detect ice in order to get the NAI and WAI to turn on. 3 detectors for the NAI, 10 for the WAI. I'd like to know more, like if I'll get the WAI and NAI green indications on the EICAS when it automatically turns on. I'm asking because when I took of from UNNT, Novosibirsk a couple of hours ago I didn't get any indication at all. The weather wa…

hello to everyone,i have a issue with the PMDG 747.In the fmc on the payload page put for example 36400% of cargo and also put 0/0 passengers and 0/0 cargo.Thank you

Hello to everyone,i have a payload issue with the PMDG 747 i think that the issue is on the aircraft.cfg thats why i asking to all of you,Can anyone sahre with me his aircracft.cfg to solve it? thank you!

Hello fellow simmers Since the installation of the PMDG 747-8 and the 747-400 V3 updates, all my 747-400 V3 PAX versions, 747-400, -400D and -400M, have a big Payload issue. I also posted this issue on Facebook (Will leave al link so you can see the screenshot) but without success. Before I open a Ticket at PMDGs website, I`m gonna ask about a possible solution here. In a nutshell, the aircrafts Payload is all over the place. It`s insanely high. Here are the numbers: GW: 12755.1 tons ZFW: 12581.5 tons Load Level: 18423.9% 747-8, neither version is affected. They both work. Also the 747-400 Freighter versions, no proble…

I can only see seats on the plane when in spot mode the all plane is missing, any idea why?

Hi, Just wondering if there are any such as Gate Gourmet etc. Thanks Dmitriy Toropov

Hi, I got this warning on the EICAS on 2 occasions just after take-off. It's really weird that such a warning would appear during the initial stages of the flight. Both flights were done on heavy payloads with GW of around 380000kg. Flights with lower weights are uneventful and the warning does not appear. The warning that stays during cruise and doesn't go away. I'll report back during landing if it clears itself. Any ideas?

After push back, my 744 disconnects from the GSX tug but subsequently will not move. If I reload it, it will work normally. It would seem as if the release signal from GSX is not being interpreted correctly by the 747. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a work-around? (Brakes are released, chocks are away and there is no failure registered).

My FMC is showing all call outs are active. The sounds ‘v’ call outs, flap ‘clicks’, brake clicks were all active until yesterday. Today they are not there. I have not altered any settings I have tried a re install but the sounds are still not active. Can any member help me please? I am using FSX STEAM Donald Leaton

Hello, I updated my 744 with the PMDG operations center. Once I startup a flight with the 744, it gives me this message: initialization of licence failed PMDG I hope you can help me on this!

Hello captains! I installed some textures on the 747 and some have the panel (1), and other liveries have the panel (2), the question is, can I make any changes to the .cfg so that all installed liveries have only the panel (2)?

Hello everyone, I just installed the 747 and when I tried to fly first flight I realized the engine sound it's the same for the rest of the flight. Like, I am increasing power, for take-off for example, the engine sound it's the same, no hearing of „increasing power”, just the idle sound of the engine, Same sort of problem it's happening in outside view, no increasing or decreasing power sound, I can hear the bleed sound, warnings sound etc. I hadn''t pay attention at the start up and shut down procedure, I mean if the specific sound of the specific procedure is correct. I dunno what's happening, same sound problem occured while using the freighter version of t…

Hi Guys. I'm pretty new to flying "study level" airplanes. I can't seem to figure this one out. My PMDG 737's or 747's are staying at takeoff power all the way up to cruising altitude. Even when I select reduced takeoff and reduced climbs in the perf before taking off. I've done a lot of reading, but am obviously missing something. Any quick pointers?

Hi, I've seen this issue being reported previously, but only on P3D. Sorry if this is a redundant post, I did not find a matching response though for FSX. So here is my problem: I've been running QOTS II with the 744 and 748 on FSX and Win10 all the time without problems. Now today all of a sudden, they do not load properly anymore. No matter whether I load a saved flight, or create a new flight, or just pick the aircraft and launch it on an airport, always the same happens: when the scenario is loaded, I sit in a dead cockpit, all dark and black, nothing can be clicked. Engines are running. In the outside view there is no gear visible. I know the situatio…
